X-Men, Wade Wilson/Rogue, Delta

Jul 06, 2009 09:58

Fandom: X-Men
Pairing: Wade Wilson (Deadpool) x Marie (Rogue)
Theme set: Delta
Rating: R
Warnings: AU to the nth degree. Combining X1 and Origins in a weird mash.
Disclaimer: I do not own, and it is better that way. Because I don't want responsibility for it.
Notes: Loosely tied in with Welcome to the Chicken House, and demonstrates quite well why I like doing these challenges so much. Because this is more of an awkward know-I-should-forget-it, one-sided teen crush than anything else and that works for my series.

#01 - Air

It takes the better part of a day to air out the house after the cake burns, and there's still a faint smell of smoke for days after that
Rogue really hopes Wade won't ask about when he comes home.

#02 - Apples

It's always nerve wracking waiting for Wade to come back from a job, because he likes to bring souvenirs back; 'souvenirs' could range from a bag of apples to the little finger of someone in the wrong place at the wrong time.

#03 - Beginning

Rogue doesn't like to think about how he found her, she'd made a horrible mistake in the old woman's character and almost paid for it; Wade, of course, likes to remind her every chance he gets.

#04 - Bugs

"I don't care what it is," Rogue scrambled further back from- from the thing, "Get it away from me, Wade!"

#05 - Coffee

Rogue learned very quickly to get rid off any coffee products Wade brought home.

#06 - Dark

Her room has a steel door and more deadbolts than it should --Marie clutches her knees tighter and listens to the heavy silence of the house-- sometimes she thinks it's not enough when Wade gets into one of those moods.

#07 - Despair

The neighborhood isn't nice she finds out one night when she's cornered by a gang of men and trying her best to not touch them, it doesn't work and she spends the next few days trying to find herself again among the cacophony of voices in her head.

#08 - Doors

The bathroom didn't have a door at first and that's how she knows Wade has tattoos and always wears a mask; when she woke up the next day a door, with three locks, had been installed.

#09 - Drink

As soon as she stopped throwing up she was going to find that camera and break it over Wade's head.

#10 - Duty

Sometimes Wade comes back hurt bad enough that he can't heal it all, and it's up to Rogue to drag him to the bathroom and sew up the smaller holes that don't heal right away.

#11 - Earth

The backyard is fertile and she wants to plant some roses, but she's too afraid of what she might dig up to actually do it.

#12 - End

For a while Rogue had thought she'd changed one crazy killer for another --well, she has-- but it's hard to stay afraid of a man who watches Looney Tunes in Spider-Man boxers while eating Boo Berry cereal.

#13 - Fall

Rogue waited for the other shoe to drop, to get kicked back out onto the street, she waited and waited and was still waiting even though she now had more clothes in her closet than Wade had in the entire house.

#14 - Fire

The sudden silence, disturbing enough by itself because Wade never stopped talking, was the only warning she got before the kitchen was engulfed in flames.

#15 - Flexible

She didn't think it was possible for men to be that bendy, Rogue watches Wade stretch out into another contorted position knowing she wasn't half that flexible.

#16 - Flying

Not all of Wade's jobs are about killing and sometimes those are the best jobs, because she gets to tag along and watch him test out some mad scientist's jetpack which turns out to not be fully functional after all.

#17 - Food

Left to himself Wade will buy nothing but junk food, which Rogue doesn't mind until the lack of nutrition starts to make her sick.

#18 - Foot

Rogue looked between Wade's new foot and the bagged old one, amazed again about what he could do, but- "Why'd you bring it back?!"

#19 - Grave

Despite living with an older, kind-of-perverted man who kills for a living; who should be declared clinically insane; and has a graveyard behind his house, Rogue feels safe for the first time since Cody.

#20 - Green

The guns weren't locked away and the bullets were lined up in one of the kitchen cabinets, a quick visit to Youtube was all she needed to start teaching herself how to use them.

#21 - Head

For one absolutely terrifying minute she thought she'd killed him, but then the hole in his head stopped bleeding and Wade started cursing.

#22 - Hollow

Youtube hadn't taught her anything about hollow points, but after that little accident Wade made sure she knew more about bullets than she'd ever wanted to know before.

#23 - Honor

Weasel tried confronting Wade about her once, it was kind of sweet and also pretty suicidal, she made sure to thank him for it anyway when she handed him the ice for his swelling eye.

#24 - Hope

Cody, or the voice and memories in her mind that she knows isn't her own, went quiet one day; she bribes Wade's geek friend and finds out that Cody woke up from his coma.

#25 - Light

It's amazing how many diners and vaguely lit Chinese restaurants won't hesitate at serving food to a teenage girl, a masked and armed man, and a black and blue nerd.

#26 - Lost

Rogue doesn't like to think about what she'll do with her life, there's not much going for a mutant high school drop-out and she doesn't think she'd be able to survive the kind of work Wade does.

#27 - Metal

She finds his dog tags in the attic one day, they're bent and worn but they look cool and Wade never says anything when she starts wearing them.

#28 - New

Rogue's never been good at hiding her feelings; Wade either doesn't notice or just pretends he doesn't, either way is for the best though.

#29 - Old

Rogue watched as Wade hugged the toilet between bouts of retching and ignored her sympathetic gag reflex, she'd told him the cheese was bad and she was going to sit here and be smug at him about it until he admitted she was right!

#30 - Peace

ADD has nothing on Wade, the only time she's ever seen him still long enough to focus on a single thing --and unconsciousness wasn't involved-- is that one time there was a Golden Girls marathon on TV.

#31 - Poison

They eat out a lot because Rogue only knows how to boil water and Wade has a tendency to add things into food just to see what colors he might vomit up later.

#32 - Pretty

Wade measures beauty in cup size, Rogue scowls at the plastic bimbos papered on the walls and adjusts her own modest --flat-- assets; she really doesn't need the body-image issues they induce added on top of everything else she has to deal with, but there it is.

#33 - Rain

It's cold and she's soaked through but Rogue stubbornly stays on the roof, she refuses to stay inside when that man --Wade calls him Zero, Weasel says Maverick-- stops by; he scares her too much.

#34 - Regret

Some days Rogue wonders what would have happened if she'd stayed home, if she'd given her parents a chance to get over their shock and automatic fear; it's too late now though.

#35 - Roses

It says something --probably something awful-- that when she does plant her roses and uncovers a skull --human-- her first thought is to make it into a pot.

#36 - Secret

Rogue always knew Wade worked with other people --he loved gossiping about them with her-- but it's not until the geek --she's still not sure if Weasel is his name or an insult-- drops his expensive looking laptop and gapes at her that she realizes Wade had never talked about her with them.

#37 - Snakes

"Wade," Rogue pressed herself harder against the wall, wishing she had the power to climb it, "get it out of here before I break your nose!"

#38 - Snow

Rogue knows it's snowed outside when she's woken up by a snowball and Wade's insane laughter.

#39 - Solid

Wade is self-conscious of his scars and always covers them up whenever he can, it makes him the safest person to be around Rogue because there's no chance that she'll accidentally touch his skin.

#40 - Spring

It took her a week to drag out everything from the room she eventually claims as her own, Wade apparently had never heard of a garbage can.

#41 - Stable

Wade isn't sane --his mood shifts on a dime, he talks to people who aren't there, he acts like an eight year-old, and that's not even the worst of what he is-- Rogue wonders what it makes her that she sticks around him anyway.

#42 - Strange

Rogue eventually learned not to ask questions, because the main problem with Wade was that he would answer questions even if he really shouldn't.

#43 - Summer

With the snow gone Rogue gets her first good look at the backyard, "Why're there a bunch of dirt mounds out there?"

#44 - Taboo

The Room was the only thing off limits to Rogue and it bugged her that she didn't know what was in there, but she wasn't curious enough to risk- to risk whatever reaction Wade would have over it.

#45 - Ugly

She's not going to lie, Wade is one of the ugliest people she's ever seen, but it gets less startling each time she sees his face.

#46 - War

It takes Rogue two months to learn how to shoot properly, she feels proud of that right up until Wade gets her to try to hit a moving target.

#47 - Water

Rogue pulled her feet up on the table and addressed the soaked half of Wade that wasn't folded up under the sink, "I think we need a plumber."

#48 - Welcome

The first thing Rogue does in her new home is to clean it from top to bottom, and she's surprised to find a decent place under the toxic wasteland that had been Wade's house.

#49 - Winter

Rogue didn't have clothes up to dealing with the cold or any money to buy some, and Wade didn't offer to help her out with that until she raided his closet.

#50 - Wood

Porn Night is a household event that eventually stops being embarrassing, though Wade complains whenever she starts laughing at the ridiculous lines or makes fun of the porn stars.
