reblog if u agree
I made this idek when, but this poorly sketched wlw Logurt (inspired by the butch Logan trend that I am extremely late to ofc) has been in my drafts for a while now. I'm just posting this, despite really disliking it tbh, just to have some sort of activity. I'm art blocked and extremely busy with life stuff. Sorry to my sweet mutuals who I do not have the energy to reply too. Chatting is just so exhausting lately. :') ANYWAy, sorry for the ramble. Happy Halloween to those who celebrate. I forgot it was even today. Yaaaaay.
Alertar:a fic nĂŁo Ă© minha.
So I thought Iâd share a few of my X-Men AO3 fics on here. Some gen fics, some ship fic. All X-Men that are usually Kurt focused.
This one is a Logurt (LoganxKurt Wagner, WoverinexNightcrawler) where one near drowning causes Logan to contemplate his feelings for Kurt and why this instance pulled at his heartstrings more.
A harsh, water filled cough escaped Kurt as he gagged out water. Rolling onto his hands and knees, he continued to hack away in an attempt to empty out his lungs. Breathes took several deep inhales in an attempt to calm down as Kurtâs body strained and shook. Fear, panic, and confusion made a mess of Kurtâs brain, refusing to let him process what happened.
A strong hand gently sat on his back running around in circles to comfort him. It gave Kurt something to focus on. Even if it was just barely. Kurt leaned into the contact, feeling a bit more at ease. Unfortunately, not for long.
Kurtâs body gave out, too stressed by the abrupt awakening. He could feel himself being rolled around onto his back as yellow eyes started getting foggy. The last thing Kurt would remember before losing consciousness was being lifted up bridal style as Logan looked at him with anxious blue eyes. And though his hearing was muffled, he could have sworn that he heard Logan telling him that everything was going to be okay.

Logan refused to leave Kurtâs side. He was instantly brought to the med bay for observation. And though he was expected to make a speedy recovery, Kurt was bedbound until further notice. He needed the rest. Having nearly drowned thanks to his foot getting tangled in seaweed while saving a young scuba diver, getting oxygen and rest was the best medicine.
Listening to the small beeps of Kurtâs machinery, Logan watched as Kurt breathed. Cold hands firmly held onto a three digited hand, periodically feeling veins thumping along to Kurtâs heart rhythm.
âYou donât have to be attached to his hip.â Hank noted. âHeâs going to be okay.â
Silence was all the medically proficient mutant got as Loganâs hold tightened. Scanning the Canadian, Hank noted the dark circles starting to form under Loganâs eyes. And from what he recalled, he hadnât seen Logan eat much since they got back.
âYou need sleep.â Hank advised. âHeâs not going anywhere.â
âHe nearly drowned Hank.â Logan coldly reminded.
âI know.â
âHe could have died.â
âBut he didnât. And letâs not forget, he saved that young boyâs life.â
Logan said nothing. Not because he thought that Hank was wrong, or that saving the scuba diver should have died, but because of the man in front of them. An aching feeling sank Loganâs heart and a dark cloud fogged his mind.
âAt least try to eat.â Hank advised, noting that he wasnât going to change the manâs mind anytime soon as he excused himself.
In the silent wake of Hankâs exit, Logan felt lost. He always worried about Kurt. As his friend, and knowing what the blue mutant had gone through, Logan always looked out for him. People could be cruel, yet Logan never wanted him to hide his true self. He knew Kurt had troubles with family, but wanted him to know that he didnât need blood to have it when he had the X-Men. As his friend, Logan wanted what was best for him and couldnât help but worry about the external forces out to get him.
But now, Loganâs worries felt like more than just friendly concerns. It fell deeper now. Watching Kurt dive down and not resurface for several minutes after the Scuba diver did brought out the worse case of panic in Logan. And seeing him almost frozen in place like a corpse on ice scared Logan.
Kurt was strong. Heroic to a fault. Logan never wanted to strip Kurt of that, but seeing him almost die was horrifying. It didnât just terrify him that he almost lost a friend. It felt like a part of his heart was almost ripped out of his chest, and he couldnât quite grasp why. Locking onto Kurt, one of Loganâs hands brushed through blackish indigo hair. It caused an unconscious reaction as Kurtâs face melted into the hand, causing Loganâs heart to skip a beat.
Loganâs mind fell onto one question: Out of all the times he had seen Kurt hurt, why was he feeling so strange about it now?
~
Kurt was released two days after his hospitalization. As such, he was allowed to freely roam the halls of the school. Provided he took it easy for a few more days.
The only problem was Logan. The once bedside latched Canadian had all but disappeared. It felt odd. Sure, Logan was distant with most people on most days, but he alway liked to check in with Kurt. Maybe go to the bar, which Kurt hs presently been barred from while he recuperates, or train in the danger room.
The distance had gotten so apparent that Kurt could have swore he was avoiding him. One of the few times Kurt spotted him, he noted Logan distancing himself from the fuzzy blue mutant. It made Kurt wonder if he had done something wrong.
~
He knew he shouldnât be avoiding Kurt, but he felt like he had to in order to collect himself. He wanted to know why he was feeling so peculiar towards the elf. He needed time to process it and try to find out what he was feeling.
But now, his guilt for abandoning Kurt was high, and he knew he shouldnât avoid him any longer. As he travelled down the halls, Logan caught a glimpse of a conversation. Upon further observation, it was Kurt and Kitty. Logan stood by the wallâs edge, not wanting to interrupt the conversation.
âWhat was it like?â Kitty inquired. âWas it like in the movies where air bubbles are all over the place and your panicking?â
âSort of.â Kurt awkwardly confirmed. âI was certainly panicking, but I donât think there were that many air bubbles.â
âWhy didnât you teleport?â Her question was a reasonable one. âSurely that would have saved you.â
There was a stagnant pause. Logan was curious as well. Surely Kurt would have âported to safety.
âI was in such a panic that I couldnât focus on it. My leg was caught and thatâs all I could think about. I was already losing oxygen, so even if I did teleport, I could have risked uncertain amounts of damage.â
His reasoning also made sense. If someone is in a panic, the mind may become burry and scared.
âYou know, Logan was relly worried about you.â Kitty stated. âHe didnât leave your side once during your stay in the medical bay.â
Another stagnant pause. Though he wasnât looking directly at the duo, Logan could sense a subtle change in the air. Limbs shifted, crossing as one hand covered Kurtâs mouth. His eyes seemed thankful, but the were sad.
âThatâs why heâs avoiding me, isnât it?â Kurt sighed. âI must have been such a burden to him that he cant stand to be near me.â
Logan swore he heard a saddened sigh escape Kurt. Guilt sank into the Canadian like hot coal on ice. He knew his avoidance might not have been wise, but he didnât want Kurt thinking he was a burden.
âNo.â Kitty gasped. âHeâs your friend.â
âThen why does he run from me?â Kurt asked, letting out a whimper.
There was no time to react before Kurt found himself thrown over a shoulder. And it wasnât until he felt movement that he realized who grabbed him. Logan shot Kitty a glance confirming that he had this handled, to which she nodded, a little concerned, but understood that he needed to talk to Kurt.

Kurt was tossed on the bed unceremoniously as Logan shut the door. The blue mutant flopped around for a moment before sitting up. Once he did, Logan was leaning over him, hands clamping to the sides of his face.
âLogan, what are you doing?â Kurt shakily asked, not knowing if he should be afraid or not.
There was no time to get an answer before warm, smoke scented lips collided with Kurtâs. Golden eyes widened in shock and a deep purple tint heated Kurtâs cheeks. Nothing and no one moved, as passion absorbed the duo.
Upon release, Kurt took a deep breathe. His once alarmed expression now one of unexpected awe. Golden eyes locked with blue ones as callous hands continued to hold onto Kurtâs face.
âDonât you ever think youâre a burden, Elf.â Logan requested. âYou never were one, and Iâm sorry if I made you feel that way.â A softer kiss landed on Kurtâs forehead. âI was just so scared after you nearly drowned. More so than I have ever been since the day we met. Youâre strong, saintly, and smart, but when I saw you limp, it felt like I was hit by a train. I was so confused and worried, and I didnât know why.â Hands moved to Kurtâs shoulders, pulling him into a hug. âI love you Kurt Wagner. I love you, you fuzzy elf.â
Speechless, Kurt processed everything Logan just told him. It was a relief to know that he wasnât a burden to Logan, but he hadnât expected the confession. It certainly put things into perspective for Kurt. Not only that, but it got him to realize something himself. In all of the years that they knew each other, Kurt would be lying if he said he wasnât fond of Logan. Fondness that, as of late, felt less platonic, and more affectionate. Shuffling back slightly, he looked at Logan.
âI love you too, you oversized teddy bear.â Kurt replied.
This time, it was Logan who was speechless, giving Kurt just enough time to steal a soft kiss of his own. When Logan relaxed, he returned it with a subtle amount of passion. Breaking apart felt lonesome, but both needed to breathe. Logan finally got himself situated, sitting next to Kurt.
âIt feels nice.â Logan mused, holding Kurtâs hand. âKnowing what Iâm feeling and that itâs mutual. Iâd never want you to force you.â
âI know.â Kurt figured, resting his head on Loganâs shoulder. âAnd youâre not. Weâve always been the odd couple. In friendship and now in romance. Not that Iâm complaining. Itâs⊠nice.â
Though putting it mildly, nice summed it up perfectly. That said, without uttering a word, they both knew it would take time to get used to this new chapter in their story, and they knew it wasnât going to be all sunshine and rainbows. However, neither regret it in this moment, and both knew this was only the beginning.
