    Okay, is Tasha worrying over nothing (C'mon, it's Colossus!)

    or is something going down iwth one of my favoritest Xmen ever?
    (tell me Nightcrawler's in here, too?)

      It's just Natasha's nature. She doesn't trust people. Least of all other Russians.

      And forgive the flub on Colossus's sexuality in later chapters. I was not very familiar with the character when I first wrote this.

        ? Apparently, I ghosted right over something. Or the comics did something with Nightcrawler and collosus after I quit reading o.0

        as far as I know, both Crawler and Colossus are straight.

          Nothing with Nightcrawler that I'm aware of but Colossus is gay. Marvel.com has the information in their character profile under Colossus (Ultimate). It might just be for X-Men Ultimate.

          I have some unconventional ships. Nat and Colossus. Poison Ivy and Swamp Thing.

            yeeeeah, Colossus being gay is EXTREMELY new.

            He and Kitty Pride were A Thing for ages. Then he went off to sexy up Callisto of the Morlocks for Ages.
            Seriously, if they want gay characters, why not either make characters that never had romantic entanglements gay,
            or like, introduce new characters that are gay? Why mess with established characters with history?

            I REALLY do not like rearranging characters just to fulfill some Societal Fad.

              I think I remember Colossus and Kitty. And I can agree with making new gay characters. I say the more the merrier! I'm fond of bi characters, especially.

                exactly! I don't like taking established characters with a long history and then messing them up. We need more LGBT characters? Fine! Introduce them! Trying to remix old characters to new standards is an insult to whatever they're trying to appease (basically saying a new gay character wouldn't stand on its own merit) and the fanbase that loved the character exactly as it was.
