Shut up, me.

Dear self:

You know that habit of yours where you keep falling for pairings that no one ever writes?

Stop that.

Unfulfilled in Fic,
Me.

Which pairing?

Gambit/Phoenix.

Scott sighed. "Look, Jean. We agreed to go on a break, and we were allowed to fool around. And so Emma and I-- we're in love!"

Jean raised an eyebrow, her gaze flicking over to Emma Frost, who was doodling "Scott ♥ Emma 4evah" and "Mrs. Emma Summers" all over her notebook. "So you interpreted 'fooling around' to mean 'act like an idiot', is this what you're telling me? Don't lie; I can kill you with my brain."

"Look, we're just much more compatible. I mean, you could read my mind and that always made me feel weird. But Emma doesn't care what's in my brain! Also, she's just not as emotionally cold as you are."

Jean opened and closed her mouth a few times, furrowing her eyebrows. "You know, you're right, Scott. The two of you are perfect for each other. Go be happy together." Marching out of Scott's room, she passed a familiar figure, leaning against the wall. He had to have heard everything.

"I can blow zem up for you if you'd like," Gambit said.

"You heard?"

"Hard not to, Cher."

"What are you doing out here, anyway?"

"Well you see, I was thinking about setting up a quick game of Poker, but it's always more fun to play with someone who can see past a poker face, non?"

Jean smiled. "Remy, the last thing on your mind right now is cards."

Gambit smiled back. "See? I knew you'd be fun." He held up a King of Hearts. "Interested?"

She reached to his deck and deftly plucked out the Ace of Hearts. "Oui."
