[Angamb]

Did you saw this?

This seems to be the most wanted:

Mystique: 10 votes
Other: 9
Gambit: 8
Storm, Magneto, and "none from the x-men": 6 each one

I'd like to know what mutants have in mind the users who voted "other"

 

[taintedFB]

I don't think she should absorb any other previously established character's powers. It would be nice to see her strong and maybe fly.

 

[iron_spartan]

I would like to see her get Juggernaut's power and Magneto's.

 

[Angamb]

didn't remember this thread, hehe.

Still would like to know the other options of those who voted "other"...

 

[Electrix]

I want her to be the X-Men **** and get a bit of everyone's

 

[ReallyCoolGuy]

didn't remember this thread, hehe.

Still would like to know the other options of those who voted "other"...

I chose "other" because "none" or "death of the character" wasn't an option.

 

[Angamb]

Nice, hehe. t: Certainly you love the character, hehe.

I think the F4 idea isn't as bad for Rogue, I mean, [BLACKOUT]she shouldn't be the only one to fight, but yes having more than one power at the same time.[/BLACKOUT]

 

[Angamb]

I hope she touchs Gambit in some part of the movie, it would be a nice move, to develop a closer relationship for both.

I've got that in the scene where they first meet, when she is showing him her powers. Sorta like "what's your sign" for mutants. lol

 

[Angamb]

have you posted it here?

Strangely, my script has a very simliar scene. Mine is vital to the plot though.

 

[Angamb]

Then post them, guys! hahaha

 

[Blacklight]

Ms. Marvel or a mutant with similar powers. Nuff' said.

 

[ToriL90]

Strangely, my script has a very simliar scene. Mine is vital to the plot though.

The touch isn't really important in mine, except that it lets Gambit know he can't touch her and it's also a really sexy moment (he's not wearing a shirt for reasons that are shown in an earlier scene, but he is covering his arms with his coat, so she touches his chest). Their interaction in that scene, however, is very important. It sets off a chain of events: she convinces him to sit in on a couple classes; he sits in on one of Logan's close-quarters combat classes and ends up battling him in the Danger Room during that class; Logan sees Gambit's fighting skills and has him join the team for the final battle against the Sentinels (explaining to Storm that Gambit can be trusted a lot more in battle than home alone ). There are several other aspects of Gambit and Rogue's interaction that are important, but that's the one that gets Gambit on the team.

Then post them, guys! hahaha

I've written my scene, but I haven't converted it to script format yet. I'll get on that and post it. Can't wait to see Flavio's version, too.

Mine is a small scene, but which sets up the entire second act of the movie.

Explanation: Rogue was the first person Gambit met at the school, this happens after the first night he spent at the mansion. She still doesn't know him well, so she tries to be nice. Also, she was told her power could come back at any time. She still doesn't know if she wants to supress the process of "uncuring", but Beast said they could try if she wanted.


INT. XAVIER’S MANSION - KITCHEN - DAY
Rogue is almost inside the refrigerator, she is so focused on choosing something to eat that Gambit's smooth arrival goes unnoticed.

GAMBIT
Must be hungry, non?

She turns and smiles.

ROGUE
Remy! So how was your night?

GAMBIT
Not bad. Coulda been better.

They share a sight. Rogue avoids his eyes.

GAMBIT (CONT’D)
What is your power?

ROGUE
None, as for now. I was cured... But I used to borrow other people’s powers by touching them, to put it simple. Yours?

He gets closer to her. She has one hand laid on the table, he tries to reach it.

GAMBIT
You want to know?

ROGUE
(smiling) I said I don’t have it anymore. It doesn’t work.

She tries to avoid him, but that smiling cajun is just enchanting. Suddenly, she remembers her current condition.

ROGUE (CONT’D)
Wait, it’s not safe.

Too late. Her hand is touched, and it doesn’t last three seconds.
Quickly, his VEINS seem to jump off his face, he gets breathless and falls on the ground. Rogue’s iris become red, black sclera, she is helpless. She goes on her knees, hands on her head, SCREAMING.

Many students come, following Ororo, Bobby and Scott. Ororo and Scott take Gambit and leave. Bobby holds Rogue, he tries to tame her. Her eyes now normal, she looks at him, breathing hard. She’s terrified.

ROGUE (CONT’D)
He’s a traitor.



(It doesn't really make much sense without the context...)

It makes perfect sense to me. He's obviously flirting with her, not knowing that her power would hurt him. It's obvious by Scott running in that he's back. Rogue's comment that "He's a traitor" is because in touching him, she absorbed his thoughts and memories and such. Not sure if she's talking about his past, or if he is a traitor to the X-Men (some people want that kind of storyline, not sure if you're one of them), but the scene makes a lot of sense to me. Nice scene, too.

Ha! You nailed it. Yep, he's basically a prick who lies to Storm and Rogue, the two women who embraced him. I can't tell more because...well, the plot changes a lot. But the mansion gets invaded because of him. Of course, after a lot of lies and "What side is he on", he finally redeems himself.
The fact Rogue discovers it give the X-Men some advantage though. At least at first.

 

[Angamb]

Nice scene! Liked it. Would love to see it, in fact. Maybe I don't like the idea of Rogue screaming again... but good scene, falvio.

Thank you! Well, as for the scream, I don't really picture it being her "usual" kind of scream. This one is rage and pain, and is supposed to last some seconds. Just picture Rogue screaming the way Wolverine does

 

[Angamb]

Oh, that sounds interesting, hehe. Reallly does. Then I like it.

 

[ToriL90]

Okay, I converted my "Rogue touches Gambit" scene to script format. I know it's not as exciting as Flavio's, lol. This scene was meant more for preparation than excitement, though. This scene precedes the one where she convinces Gambit to sit in on some classes; but it gets pretty long at that point, so I'll just post when they meet.

This'll need some explaining, because mine really DOESN'T make sense out of context, lol.

Storm did an TV interview in which she discussed the events of Alcatraz. On her way to the garage where she parked, an extremist shoots at her as vengeance for Alcatraz. Gambit saw the guy pull the gun out, and saved Storm by throwing an explosive card into the guy's hand to throw off his aim (he hit her in the arm instead). When the guy turned the gun on Gambit, Gambit killed him by throwing a deck of explosive cards into him. Gambit then used his shirt to make a bandage for Storm's arm. Storm, grateful for his help, offered to let him stay at the Mansion, which he agreed to do for a couple nights (much to Logan's chagrin, as he had previously met Gambit in a bar and hated him).

----------EXT. XAVIER INSTITUTE - PARKING LOT - DAY
A white car with tinted windows pulls into a parking space. Rogue, recognizing the car, jogs up to the driver’s side door as Logan exits. Rogue gives him a quick hug.
ROGUE: “Hey!”
Logan briefly reciprocates the hug, but is clearly distracted. He opens the back seat and Storm slowly climbs out.
ROGUE: “You were great, Storm.”
Storm finally emerges with Gambit’s help from inside the car, and Gambit climbs out after her.
STORM: (Distracted, in pain) “Thank you, Rogue.”
Rogue sees the bandage around Storm’s right arm and finally realizes that something is wrong.
ROGUE: “What happened?”
LOGAN: “Storm got shot…” (Looks at Storm, hostilely) “…and brought home a rat.”
Gambit glares at Logan, annoyed but also amused.
STORM: “It just grazed my arm. I’ll be fine.”
Storm looks back to Gambit to draw Rogue’s attention to him.
STORM (Cont.): “This is Gambit. He saved my life. Rogue, would you please show him around? He’ll be staying with us for the time being.”
Logan takes Storm inside, leaving Rogue and Gambit alone. They stand a few feet away from each other. Gambit puts his hands in his pockets and looks down, while Rogue folds her arms and seems almost as though she’s trying not to look at him. Finally, she speaks.
ROGUE: “You’re not wearing a shirt.”
GAMBIT: “That is a problem for you?”
ROGUE: “Well, you could at least button up your jacket.”
Gambit buttons one button at his waist.
GAMBIT: (Buttoning jacket): “Ouie, chere, I am too sexy for you.”
Rogue rolls her eyes, but still tries to make conversation.
ROGUE: “What’s your gift.”
GAMBIT: “Besides my sexiness?”
ROGUE: (Smirks): “Seriously.”
Gambit pulls a card out of his jacket pocket and holds it up. The card glows pink. He throws it. The card flies a couple dozen feet before landing in grass and exploding, leaving a small crater in the ground.
ROGUE: (Watching the card) “Cool.”
GAMBIT: “I showed you mine… You show me yours?”
ROGUE: (Taking off a glove) “Gimme a card.”
He pulls a card - the four of hearts - out of his pocket. She takes the card and holds it up in her gloved handlike he did.
ROGUE: “This won’t hurt for long.”
She puts her bare hand on his chest. Immediately, an electrical flow charges into Rogue’s hand. His eyes and veins bulge out and he gasps. Rogue jerks her head back and takes a deep breath, opening her eyes wide as Gambit’s energy flows into her body. Her iris turns red and her sclera black. The card in her hand glows. She takes her hand off Gambit and throws the card. The card flies only a few feet before landing and exploding in the parking lot. He takes several deep breaths as he recovers from her touch. She grins at him.
Suddenly, she stops smiling. She is stunned, appearing as though she is watching something horrible.
GAMBIT: “Something wrong?”
Rogue snaps out of her daze, but is visibly shaken.
ROGUE: “Nothing.” (Walking toward the Mansion) “Come on, Ah’ll show you the campus.”
Gambit watches her walk for a moment before following her into the Mansion.
