scans_dailyYesterday, to close 2013, I made a post featuring two guys (Well, a guy and an alien of indeterminate gender, but who made no objection when referred to as male by "his" friends) the extent of whose relationship is an interesting area.
So to start 2014, here's something for those who might enjoy two ladies enjoying each other's company.
Davis’s explanation of this image, from Rough Stuff Magazine #1
This was drawn as a joke that I faxed into editorial during the period I was plotting the X-books.
I hadn’t sought the writing assignment and only ever intended to fill the role while a new regular writer was found. So I approached the job in a purely professional way as a “short term problem solver” rather than forging a long term plan of my own. There were always lists of characters, events and themes which had to be included in the two main X-books to spin off into the other X-titles.
I enjoyed the challenge of pulling the disparate demands together in a, hopefully, cohesive and entertaining story, but there was one “request” that baffled me—a cover image with Wolverine and Jean Grey kissing. My question was always why, what is the story behind it? The answer was always the same, it’s what the fans want and it’s gonna be big—and it will boost sales! I sent my sketch as an alternative that would certainly boost sales.
The man has a point!

Or else Rogue and Jean just decide "What the hell, let's see what happens"
In a Claremont script I'd say either possibility was viable.

Date: 2014-01-06 05:03 pm (UTC)Logan could feel the needles pierce through his skin and into the very marrow of his bones. Could feel as the electrodes and wires began to systematically overwrite his very identity.
Logan: NO! PLEASE NO! NOT AGAIN! NOT AGAIN!
Yukiko, Yuriko, Jubilee, Kitty, Jean, Scott.... all of those dear to him being erased from his memories as pain invaded both his body and mind faster than it could heal.
Charles: "Logan..."
Logan: Make it stop!
Charles: Logan!
Logan: Ch-Charles?
Charles: Logan. Wake up. This isn't real. This is merely in your mind.
Logan opened his eyes and slowly the cold table was replaced by a warm bed. The wires and Needles were replaced by the tangled sheets and VR helmet was replaced by a warm soothing hand. He looked up and to his left to see Charles kneeling by his bed. Though he wore a smile Logan could see he was worried.
He took a few moments to catch his breath.
Logan: Thank you Charles.
Charles took a moment before saying,
Charles: how long have these dreams been going on?
Charles could see Logan steeling himself, throwing up the emotional shields he always raised when when it came to expressing any emotions other than rage and anger.
Logan: I'm fine Chuck.
Charles: You can't lie that easily to a telepath my friend.
Logan: Are you gonna go poking around my head again?
Charles: Of course not, I gave you my word I wouldn't do that without your permission. But I'm concerned Logan.
Logan: Why do you care.
Charles felt himself flush.
Charles: I care because I care for all those living under my roof Logan.
It was then that he realized he was still stroking Logan's forehead... Slowly, he began to withdraw his hand... until he felt firm hands clasping around his wrist. Looking down, he saw Logan, eyes glassy and startlingly open.
Several things happened for Logan in those seconds. The moment he barked at Charles and asked "Why do you care" he smelled the arousal coming from the man beside him. The blush on his cheeks only confirmed this. It was then that he remembered the gently stroking hands, and then just as quickly thier cold absence. He acted without thinking... as he usually does... when he grabbed for the man's wrist, only knowing that he didn't want to feel the absence of that gentle touch.
Charles: Logan...?
Logan: Don't... I'm sorry...
Charles: We don't have to talk Logan. Whenever you are ready, you know i am always here.
Logan nodded.
Charles was about to stand to leave when he felt his hand being drawn down to the man beside him. Then his hand was on the man's chest. He could feel Logan's heart beating at a rate that for any other man would mean cardiac arrest. Logan's chest was firm, and rough with hair. He could not help buy run his fingers through them.
Charles: Logan?
Logan: Please Charles...
Charles felt the man's other hand reach up and cup his chin, then slowly guide thier lips together.
This was all Charles needed, finally giving into the emotions of the moment. As the kiss intensified Charles found himself straddling Logan's waist on the bed. The kissing became far more heated and hungry.
Charles heard the familiar "Snkt" of Logan's claws, then felt as the expertly cut through his night shirt. The kissing continued now skin to skin. The friction was incredile but far too little. As if reading HIS mind, Logan's hands began to trail down Charles' back and down to his waist....
****In another part of the mansion****
Scott: EMMA, not that i am complaining *panting* but what brought that on...?
Emma: Nothing Scott dear, just go back to sleep, you'll need your strength later...
***In yet another part of the Mansion***
Celeste and Mindee: Wow... we need to....
Phoebe: Already on it... "And as they both writhed together in...."
****In the white hot room (that has just gotten a little hotter****
Jean: Heh, about damn time....
