Things I'd Like to Learn

[scribblemyname]

Those of you who like to read my stuff know I like Gambit. A lot. However, as the lovely mwffj pointed out, there's a side of him that doesn't get half enough attention.

Let's start with

banter. He's exceptional at it. It's also rarely sexual in nautre.

REMY: Wanna go find a bar and start a fight?
LOGAN: I don't think you could fight a kitten right now.
REMY: 'Course not. Kittens fight dirty. I'll just sit int the corner and kick people in your direction.
~ X-23, Issue 12

Also see any of the quotes I use to open chapters of Without a Trace.

Which brings me to

humor. Not my forte,b ut I love it when it's done right. Almost all my favorite quotes of his are funny.

PHOENIX: I think the more nervous you get, the more jokes you crack.
GAMBIT: Shh . Ancient family secret.
~ Uncanny X-Men, #333

I don't know if this is just an acquired skill (that I don't seem to be successfully acquiring), but most of my humor is purely situational. :sighs:

Or maybe I'm reading the wrong fics. :sets chin on hands and thinks:

If I had money to buy comics, I'd buy this line. Something tells me to stay away from Legacy for a bit. (Magneto/Rogue :shudder: )

It bugs me too: sex, sex, sex. The guy is funny beyond sex.
