[ Hey, if it was up to Logan, he wouldn't want any of them there. Or, more precisely, he wouldn't want himself there. At least, that's how it would've been back then.
It's different now. After the Sentinels—yeah, Wade might be a yappy motherfucker with half a brain rattling in his skull. But he's still one of them. So's Cable. He doesn't know about community or rebuilding or any of that. That's Charles's vision.
What he does know is, push comes to shove, he'll look after another mutant. It's what Charles would want, sure. But it's what he wants, too.
And if Wade annoys the shit out of Scott Summers along the way, he'll call that a plus. ]
[Oh boy, he can't wait to inflict Cable on people that are not Scott. Because that's definitely not why he's gonna be dragging Cable to something he might not even tell him is an X-Men meet-up. It's like being pulled into a furry convention when you were dressed to go clubbing. Hah!
It's gonna be great.]
look, hes a freak like us. might as well meet you dorks so he can tell more people about how much the future sucks in a deadpan monotone
[Also 'cause it's funny he doesn't like the X-Men, either. And yeah, yeah, blah, blah, they had an agreement. Fuck the X-Men. Wade's sticking to it. He's showing up, but he's not one of them. One bad trainee session leading into almost getting murdered to the sounds of dubstep really leaves a bad impression in a guy.]
[ Uh-huh. It's not like Logan told him to sit Cable home. ]
Don't gotta convince me about that.
[ Better behaved than Wade, too, though Charles doesn't exactly bring people around for their good behaviour. Exhibit A: Magneto.
Anyway, he extended the offer, his job's done. He already knows Wade doesn't give a shit about X-Men business and he told Charles as much, to not expect a whole lot out of the invitation, that it's gonna be a waste of time.
But that's been Charles's thing, too. He doesn't expect. The door's just open. ]
[Oh. Right. Sometimes he just -- they're a lot more alike than they are different. Logans.]
like i told you, it gets better. it IS better.
promise.
[And then maybe a few minutes later:] but don't listen to cable about it he's got the soul of a doomsday prepper. like the kind that's on tlc specifically
