Iceman!
do I like them:
Yes! Look, I know he's an annoying dork but have you considered that I too am annoying and I too am a dork?
5 good qualities:
He's smart. Smarter than people assume because he's always saying the dumbest things
He's kind.
He's creative, he makes sculptures and they're really good. He's an artist.
Connected to the previous one but he is just absurdly talented with his powers.
He's brave. Granted he is nearly impossible to kill so he doesn't risk a lot that often, but he's courageous as hell.
3 bad qualities:
His jokes suck and his fashion sense is terrible.
He shoots himself in the foot a whole bunch.
He's presumably a not great boyfriend...? Like, all his relationships fall apart and its not just the straight ones. Also he's lonely, almost always single and he HATES it. So what's going on there? By all accounts, he's a catch: he's nice, got broad interests, he's got money and he's hot - it's very clear that in universe he's supposed to be very attractive. So what gives? I think he's maybe just not all that much fun to be in a relationship with, probably because he's rarely that genuine with anybody.
favourite episode/etc:
I really love his storyline in the 90s with Emma taking over his body and the fall out from that. It's the one with the very blatant subtext that falls just short of saying he's gay because they weren't allowed at the time. Also it dives into his relationship with his dad which I find genuinely really upsetting. I also genuinely loved his 2017 and 2018 solo series.
otp:
Pyro (St. John Allerdyce). I can't help it I'm sorry.
brotp:
I like the Amazing Friends (Firestar & Spiderman), and his friendships with the O5, Kitty and Rogue. I also really like him with Bishop and I wished we'd got more of that in Marauders (although that one could easily not be platonic.. that said I feel like he's a bit too nerdy to be Bishop's type, but then again he's probably chaotic enough... who knows?).
ot3:
I actually did write him, St. John and Shinobi as having had a (non-explicit) threesome for some unknown reason...? It made sense at the time, and Bobby and Shinobi still had their situationships with Christian going on in that fic. Just one big poly disaster.
notp:
I don't think I gave any big "no way not ever" ships for Bobby, aside from not liking the straight ones for obvious reasons. I will say I'm not on board with him and deadpool..? I also don't really care about Christian as yet.
You think you've got problems. My fave's canon boyfriend is a bit boring. Think about that.
best quote:
So he's got a bunch of one-liners obviously. I googled iceman quotes and found this on the list:
"I am pulling the most totally bizarre vibes off the others."
Idk made me laugh. Why does he talk like this?
I liked his speech to thor here:
Tumblr media
And is "Maybe I am a loser?" moment is iconic. Also when x-corps is happening like half his dialogue is just him calling Sean a nazi which is honestly pretty funny.
head canon:
I think he's not particularly religious in terms of his actual beliefs and associates conversation about religion with his very conservative parents (his dad is Catholic and his mum is Jewish) so prefers to avoid the discussion. That said, I think he's really into family traditions and that sort of thing. He still does all the holidays with enthusiasm... probably too much enthusiasm
He has being paying very little attention to any of the big events on krakoa (ToM, Inferno). Like, he's a few days out of the loop on events and isn't entirely sure what's going on but assumes they'll sort it out. I think he likes a lot of things about the island and the people there, but I don't think he's bought into it really. It's just another wacky stage of his life for him
He's often genuinely surprised by how alive his ice golems are and is secretly a bit freaked out by it
Despite being a teenager in the 60s, Bobby is clearly still under 35. With that in mind, I headcanon his music tastes as being very 80s and early 90s. There's a lot of synth pop in there, and I feel like he got really into Alanis Morissette.
