HI EVERYONE!!! I'm so glad you're here.
There are some things I want to go over before we start. I've had this fic idea in the back of my mind for years. I had written blurbs and random notes when the time presented itself, but I would lose inspiration and work on something else. But since I've just rewatched the X-Men films for the billionth time, I decided I will not put this off any longer so here we are.
This is not Channing Tatum erasure. I believe he did a phenomenal job in Deadpool and Wolverine, and it was also heartwarming to finally see him bring his version of the character to life. I respect that people prefer him, I don't blame them because it's a personal opinion, but he is not my preferred Gambit and that's okay. I have a special connection to 2009's version because he has my heart, even if he was poorly written, which is why I'm going with the Origins version of Gambit. Taylor Kitsch's Remy LeBeau really fits the aesthetic of my fic, especially looks and personality wise, which is why I chose him instead of CT. And also because he's one of my oldest celebrity crushes but I digress.
On another note, it's important that I disclose that this book will not be canonically accurate, especially in the timeline aspect of it. Everyone knows the films are a bit all over the place, especially since we first meet live-action Gambit in Origins which takes place in the late 70s. That will be trashed. I am altering some if not most of those events, just like he will not age, for the sake of the plot since it begins in the early 2000s, so be warned. Also, I'm a big AOS fan so I thought it would be fun to intertwine SHIELD into the X-Men universe just to spice things up, including bringing in our favorite parents and the bus kids, and, for the sake of the plot, Ward (Yes, I know). This fic is written for entertainment purposes so don't expect to see every single detail from the comics and movies.
I'm really very excited to share this with you all and I hope you'll like it by the time it's finished. If you have any questions, please don't be shy. I love talking with all of you and hearing your thoughts. I also created a Spotify playlist of songs that play through my head while writing this story, which I will link below. And if you haven't already, follow me on TikTok where you can find edits and sneak peeks of my fanfics.
