Would you trust Rogue?

[mattbib]

I mean, the saying "zebras don't change their stripes" came from somewhere. And in the grand scheme of things she hasn't been an X-Man all that long...what, maybe four years? Who's to say she won't slip back into crazy bitch mode and try to kill Ali or Carol again?

For that matter would you trust Gambit? Emma? Warpath? Feral? Elixir?

[Jason Postel]

Of those names I'd say I'd probably only really trust Warpath. Rogue has done quite a bit for the X-Men in her time with them, but I'd have a hard time putting full trust into her. Out of all of them I'd say I'd have a hard time ever trusting Emma. I mean... she's the White Queen for crying outloud. Sure she's not anymore, but she was and if she wanted to I'm sure she could be again.

[Blackcat]

Well, also some other had gone bad/mad for a moment or more (Logan, Havok, Polaris, Jean, Rachel and so on) So if tehy can be trusted more then Rogue and so, hmmm doubtful

There are a few I would really trust, for the rest I would always watch my back. I would trust Ororo, Sam, Kitty, Bobby, Dani, and Lucas.

Watch my back a bit on all the others and be really aware about Emma, Logan, Charles, the Cuckoos, Hellion and Sage.

[MrBiggs7]

Definately wouldn't trust Feral but Im so naive and in love with the x-men that they'd have to slap my mama before I get mad them.

Rogue has proven herself, she has battled the woman who raised her, for whom she appears to hold little to no respect for, because they're on opposite sides of the conflict.

I'd say Rogue is pretty loyal to the cause.

Is she loyal to the team? Not really, I wouldn't trust Rogue because of her history, but I wouldn't trust her because quite frankly, she's never been a stable sane reasonable person.

She freaks out on a regular basis, which means that she's be a self-pitying wench with little to no vision on the future and on others. She'll drop you smack in the middle of one of her difficult moments, and she expects you understand it all, then when she sobers up, she'll come back and expects of you to act as if nothing ever happened, untill the next seizure comes along and then she'll blame you for pretending nothing happened.
I think that with Rogue you can never win. She's a self-destructive tart who spends too much time feeling sorry for herself.

Gambit, I'd trust him as far as I can throw him.

I wouldn't even want to work with him.

Emma Frost, a bit of a combination between Rogue and Gambit, self-absorbed, self-pitying bitch who pretends to be better than the rest and who acts so over-the-top that everybody can pierce through the facade of her being a strong selfish woman, and see her for the insecure, whining, self-pitying cow that she really is.

Emma is a tampon.

I wouldn't want to work with her, be near her, or have anything to do with her.

[Valmore]

Of course I truust Gambit, mis amis. Gambit is greatest guy ever! What do you mean he's charming me?!?

[Kid Seven]

I always kinda like Rogue better as a villain, so it's easier for me to picture her going bad, even if it is just wishful thinkin.

[streator]

i would trust rogue. i think she's become too different of a character to really go back and be a villain again.
i wouldnt 100% trust gambit or emma frost. i'd trust them in terms of team-related things, and being a "hero", but i would still think they may do some shady things outside of the x-men (which in gambit's case, he does).

[Ryan K]

I'd trust Rogue. I think she's proven herself over the years.

I'd also definately trust Warpath.

I'm a little shaky on Gambit, but I'll go ahead and say I'd trust him.

Emma. Probably not.

Feral. Definately not.

Elixir. Depends. Assuming I'm an older X-Man, probably. He was young and stupid and I think I can understand that. Assuming I'm a member of the New Mutants or Hellions, probably not.

[fishtaco]

I would trust Rogue, Gambit, Juggernaut, Emma (to a limit), Changeling, Wolverine, Bishop, Joseph, and Sage.

I would not trust Mimic, Magneto, Marrow, and Mystique.

[Ryan K]

I'd trust Magneto over Emma. Magneto always seemed to have the New Mutants best interests at heart. Emma seemed as though she would have used the Hellions to whatever interest best served her.

[Flight]

Think of it this way.
If you made a cheesecake and needed to keep it somewhere and Rogue's bedroom was the ONLY place you could keep it, would you leave it with her?
She obviously loves cheesecake but you would trust her with it?
Remember, this is CHEESECAKE we're on about here.

I'm jus' sayin'.

Tell her it's "mutant" cheescake and that if she touches it she might permanently absorb it pysche and powers. After the Sunfire and Carol Danvers' incidents . . . I think the cheesecake would be safe.

Don't trust her with beefcake though. Ask Gambit.

What kind of Cheesecake?



But I'd trust them given on the time I knew them and what theri history was. Take Rogue and Elixier, they were impressionable kids back when they were not nice. They chose the wrong path ewarly in life but made amens, I'd probably trust them. While Emma knew what she was doing as an older and wiser woman, I doubt I'd trust her.

The confusing situation is for character like Sage. While to the X-men for years she was a villain on th side of Sebby Shaw, she says she was really a spy for Xavier, now as examples Nightcrawler still does not trust her, while Storm does. I din't really know on her though.

[venuscameback]

I'd trust Rogue to watch my back and I'd trust her with my partner but maybe not my cheesecake

I wouldn't trust Gambit too much and definitely not Emma Frost


I'd trust Scott, unless it was a roamntic relationship. I'd trust Xavier, but later regret it.

I wouldn't trust Sage - I fear she'd value my personal safety below that of the group or her general objectives & thus put me at risk.

I certainly don't trust Zombie-lossus :rolleyes: but then I don't think he's the Peter we used to know. He probably is, I guess i'm dreaming there because I don't want him to be the Peter i grew up reading about and respecting.

[El Chupacabra]

Emma is someone I would trust.

She may not be your best friend and she may actually read your mind without you wanting her to (or knowing so) but as far as a teammate and X-Man goes, I would trust her.

Emma is someone who thrives on living in a "society" of people. It's what keeps her going. To her, the X-Men are a heirarchy of people, all who have their own feelings towards Emma - and she is in charge of them. Just as she was with the Hellfire club. She likes to stir up trouble, she likes to think she is better than others, and she doesn't like to be crossed BUT all of these are simple personality features that she has grown up with. It's part of the "high-society" life style. She will always be part of that. It's engrained in her personality.

That being said it really doesn't mean she is untrustworthy as an X-Teammate. She used to be a Hellfire club member. She isn't anymore. Now she is an X-Man. This is her new life. Her new social structure. She won't turn against it as it has basically become her life. She lives to create social drama within a certain society, such as the Club and now the X-Men, but she remains loyal to the cause of the group she is with simply because it's who she is.

Another thing I think Emma strives to secrely aquire is the trust and acceptance of herself into Xaviers dream team. As we know in the past, certain X-Men have a lot of trouble trusting former villains who have suddenly 'turned'; we saw it recently with Iceman and Juggernaught. I think this drives Emma because deep down, she really want's acceptance from a family that she never really had (as hers was a bit messed up). Screwing up would only put the hatred and mistrust back into the eyes of all whom she is trying to impress.

I also believe Emma truley believes helping children. Maybe it stems from her disfunctional family and her trying to make up for it or maybe it's because she enjoys having the power as the "superior" but I would doubt Emma Frost would ever turn on the X-Men (unless controlled) because she truly believes in the kids and the cause.

What you have is a sterotypical rich person with high-society-mentality trying to fit in to a new group of people and secretly earn their trust and acceptance. She is a leader at heart, a very malacious one, but a leader non the less as well as a teacher. The X-Men provide her with oppertunities to do both and an extremely large group of people whom with she can obtain a new social reputation with. It's what makes her up as a person.

She wouldn't turn on this as it would destroy her emotionally.

[f4faith]

She wouldn't turn on this as it would destroy her emotionally.

And I don't believe that for a minute. If it was in her best interests, Emma would turn on them in a flash. As long as she's getting what she wants out of the X-Men - and that's Scott cow towing to her and letting her play the ultimate leader (which she's being a cruddy one in X-Men) while being snooty and bitchy to everyone (which is not the way to way to win anyone's acceptance), she's happy but the minute something better came along, she'd turn on them in flash. She's expressed no remorse for anything she's done in the past.

I'd trust Rogue for the most part - she's pulled her weight and then some including risking her life personally for others and expressed remorse. My issue with her is her powers and the fact that she can well be affected by someone she's absorbed or have emotional extremes about it, but then I blame Xavier for his lack luster help in that area where in he's left it to her and her teammates to have to deal with it.

In battle, for the good of those he cares about, or in an emotional issue, I'd trust Gambit. He's very family oriented, has shame about his personal mistakes and actually soft hearted so I'd actually trust him concerning people individually but not about the goal and I wouldn't trust him not to steal anything of monetary value. He'd save a teammate while loosing the war and unlike Wolverine would know that's the decission he made.

I would trust Wolverine in battle with me but not around the house - his temper and rudeness is completely out of control and he really needs to be called on it.

I wouldn't trust Scott in any romance but perfectly fine as field leader but he should not be the main leader of the X-Men since he can't not let Emma decide things for him.

I trust Storm to have the best interests of the team and dream at heart though maybe not always the best decissions. She's the most overall trustworthy of the team but can be morally superior about it. Nightcrawler is probably the best all around leader on any of the teams.

I'd trust Beast about most things as well until he became bitter cat-guy.

As someone said, I wouldn't trust Sage to care for people individually and put the goal well above their life. And interestingly I have a similar issue with Xavier. He has his pets and then there is the rest of the team. Magneto falls into the same category only with no pets. It's all about his ego and his dream. I wouldn't trust him about anything personal to me or about me and in the case of the X-Men's dream - he's too self absorbed to trust him with a dream that doesn't elevate him up.

I feel about Mystique the same way I feel about Emma - wouldn't trust either of them about anything.

The other main character fall in the middle and I'd trust them like I trust most anyone else depending on personality.

[El Chupacabra]

She's expressed no remorse for anything she's done in the past.


So Emma would have no remorse in turning on the people who she has been with for the last few years? None at all. Just "Hey! There is something better! Bye!"

Sorry. I don't buy that for a minute. Emma has done a lot to try and help certain members of the X-Men with their problems. Guidance and stability. She did so in New X-Men Academy and now look at her with Lorna and Alex. She is trying to help out their situation as well as Lorna's instability. Also go take a look at the psychic therapy sessions she had with Gambit and Rogue. She was trying to let them experience love in it's entirety. Hell, she even made sure not view both naked during the sessions as she pointed out to Rogue (or Gambit, forget which) after the session.

Emma isn't some heartless psychic witch. She is a rather emotional person who really hasn't ever had friends. This is her first chance at all of that and some of these people, believe or not, she wants as friends. Yes, she acts snooty and bitchy to most everyone, but this is how she has been raised since day 1. It's hard to change one's personality in the *snap* of fingers. She does have animosity toward certain members, such as Pryde, but she is also trying to help out others at the same time.

Lorna isn't the nicest of people and Bobby showed an insane amount of hate towards Juggernaught. Emma does the same at certain members but in a more snooty and arrogant way; the way that she always has since she was born.

[f4faith]

So Emma would have no remorse in turning on the people who she has been with for the last few years? None at all. Just "Hey! There is something better! Bye!"

What remorse has she ever expressed for anything she did before?


Emma has done a lot to try and help certain members of the X-Men with their problems.

I haven't seen it.


Guidance and stability. She did so in New X-Men Academy and now look at her with Lorna and Alex. She is trying to help out their situation as well as Lorna's instability.

She is? She's just showed Lorna a tape. I don't see her doing anything serious to help her out.


Also go take a look at the psychic therapy sessions she had with Gambit and Rogue. She was trying to let them experience love in it's entirety. Hell, she even made sure not view both naked during the sessions as she pointed out to Rogue (or Gambit, forget which) after the session.

Well again I don't see that as much help. She was also the person who had no problem putting a teen girl that she knew was throwing herself at Gambit in his class. Or bothering to listen to a known enemy in Mystique while acting like a bitch to her teammate. She hasn't accomplish anything yet and always blames them for it not working. Frankly I don't know that she knows a thing about what she's doing given how poorly it's worked so far nor is she giving them any help with the concept but saying hey, you can try this and I'll set it up and then the minute it doesn't work, blaming them even when they are not the telepath. And I don't trust her to not be lying about how much she sees and doesn't see - she knew something was up with what Gambit "saw".
Overall I'm totally unimpressed with Emma's "helping" of Gambit and Rogue.

Well if she wants that she sure doesn't try and that is the problem. People who really want something actually try to change the way they are - like being an alcoholic - you may know you are wrong but you are not sincere until you actually admit, have remorse for it and actually change your ways.

I've seen no remorse out of Emma and she certainly hasn't tried very hard to win friends in my opinion.

[El Chupacabra]

Different readings on Emma's personality and character, that's all Faith.

- You see her as a selfish, heartless, persona who basically likes control and doesn't actually care for her new family.

- I see her as a child who was raised in a "rich" environment and her childhood and experiences in life shaped her personality into that of a snob. A snob who now is in a different environment then her previous experiences: Unstable home/parenting/siblings all thriving for power and position and the Hellfire Club. She is now with a family of fellow mutants who all are at Xaviers to accept one another - no matter how hard it sometimes can be. Every family has sibling rivalries and problems, Emma is just fitting in.

I think I look at her character a bit more complex than you. I see her as a person troubled with past experiences and someone who doesn't actually know how to cope well with love and family. I think you look at her more as just a greedy character with not much personality.

I like to think my scenario makes for better and more interesting story lines in the X-Men comic. After all, what's another character who just turns on the X-Men after being with them for years only to disapear after their defeat? Just another character. I think Emma Frost is more than that.

Just my opinion though.

[UncannyAsianGirl]

Hehehe...I loved the cheesecake thing, and also Ryan Kirk's retort.

Beefcake indeed.

I think it depends on whose cheesecake it is.

If it's Ororo's, she'd leave it, to avoid getting fried.

If it's Emma's, she'd probably eat it out of disrespect for her, or ask if they could share because of the whole "bad girls gone good" thing.

And if it's Wolverine's, she'd probably eat it without hesitation, 'cause she knows that he's all buddy-buddy with her, and will let her get away with it. Or they'll fight it out later in the Danger Room.

Now... would I trust her?

Pretty much, it's been a while since she's done anything appallingly bad under her own power.

Kinda strange though, her moniker being "Rogue" and all. XD

[Sabre]

I wouldn't trust Emma or Feral (especially Feral) for a minute.

Rogue is good at heart, and she's loyal to the team, but she's far too much of a loose cannon due to her powers and all the personalities potentially rattling around in her head. For that reason she's somewhat untrustworthy...I'd keep her on my team, but watch her closely and take note of Xavier's Protocols in case she sufficiently flips.

Warpath and Elixir, yes. I'm on the fence regarding Gambit.

[venuscameback]

And I don't trust her to not be lying about how much she sees and doesn't see - she knew something was up with what Gambit "saw".
Overall I'm totally unimpressed with Emma's "helping" of Gambit and Rogue.


I agree, I would expect Emma saw everything in that session, inlcuding just who Gambit fantasised about ...

I would not trust emma as a confidante or therapist. I wouldn't trust her to keep what's said in session private, not to use what she learns as a barb in an argument

which makes it interesting that Rogue & Gambit have - why didn't they approach Rachel or go to genosha to work with Xavier? I'm sure they'd be more comfortable with eiher one. but not with Emma.

I think Emma's one of those people who gives the impression she needs no-one but herself and doesn't care if people dislike her or not. she's bitter and cynical and projects this on to others by constantly criticising them.

contrary to this, inside she secretly wants to be liked, she wants to be loved, she wants to be popular. but she has a big destructive streak that alienate those around her - hence she couldn't resist trying to seduce Scott or making nasty digs at the expense of comrades. She's 'bought' her place on the team by sticking with Scott after Jean died (in the real world i'm sure she'd have dumped scott long ago, because one Jean died there was no challenge left. she'd got the man andwell, he's not interesting to her once you remove the 'untouchable' tag.) & so that keeps them together. If she wasn't dating Scott I don't think she'd get a place on any team, although she could stay on as a teacher.

one clarification though: she's not team leader. Havok is

venus

[f4faith]

one clarification though: she's not team leader. Havok is

You'd never know it. Which is another big gripe I have about her in X-Men - she undermines Havok's authority as I do know he's suppose to be the leader. Who's made most of the decissions for his team? She has. Heck she makes half the decissions for Scott. Only Storm won't put up with her crap. A leader can't lead if another outside member who happens to have some authority at the school decides to use that to take over any other decision as well.

Meanie! There's no evidence presented yet that this isn't Piotr, and he's more the Colossus I remember than he was in the last few years of his "previous" life. I will be rather sad if Whedon makes him all not Peter Rasputin. And considering he's in House of M, we can assume that nothing in Astonishing 12 will change things. I would trust him...

I would also trust Rogue. Girl's sacrificed a lot for the X-folk, and I don't like cheesecake.

Gambit? No. But to say why would spoil X-Men: The End. But he's a thief at heart anyway, and he's smarmy. I hate smarmy.

Feral? You're kidding, right?

Cyclops? Yeah. But I'm not a redhead or even a female of any time. He'll always do what he thinks is best, unless it's a personal relationship, where he won't think at all.

Emma? No. Never. Not to watch my pocket change. There is a leopard who demonstably hasn't changed most of her spots- only changing the "villain" ones. Her attitude hasn't changed from the Hellfire Club years, unlike Rogue, who is a VERY different girl from the one who took down Ms. Marvel.

[Hi-Fi]

[AcesX1X]

rogue is fine to trust. i don't know what she's up to right now, but as long as you don't touch her or whatever, she's probably a really nice girl to get to know.

do not trust feral under any circumstances. she will scream upsetting things at you and call you something like 'stinking meat!' and just be all in your face.

warpath is a puppy nowadays. he was never really bad in the first place...he was just too grown for his own good and he got stomped for it.

[CrystalGazing]

I'd trust her with the beefcake long before my cheesecake. I mean when you think about it only one of them is guaranteed to satisfy you every time

Rogue, Warpath and Elixir - YES

Gambit, Emma and Feral - NO

[Dagger]

Well put. Very well put.

[Justin K.]

I mean, the saying "zebras don't change their stripes" came from somewhere. And in the grand scheme of things she hasn't been an X-Man all that long...what, maybe four years? Who's to say she won't slip back into crazy bitch mode and try to kill Ali or Carol again?

For that matter would you trust Gambit? Emma? Warpath? Feral? Elixir?

- Rogue's been on the team since forever, I'd trust her
- Emma won me over in Generation X, she may have killed her sister, but she cared enough about her students and I don't see her going bad again any time soon. She was a teacher and being Scott's girlfriend does help as well, due to him being one of the original 5.
- Warpath had a grudge against Emma and Xavier, but he was on X-Force, far from them for the longest time, it's not like he would defect. John's death was so long ago, Warpath may hate Xavier, but he wouldn't kill him. The whole Emma thing is all resolved too...
- Feral's dead...
- Elixir is just a kid, sure he is powerful, but he was taught well, the only way I could see him going bad is if something severely traumatized him or affected someone he loved or cared about.

[Beni]

Rogue I think is trustworthy.

Emma is not yet there but I don't see her too far from where Rogue is at, in some time she'll still be Emma but we will almost forget she was an enemy to the X-Men.

Gambit I would not trust.

Elixir is young and very impressionable as they say, in some ways he is like Hellion but with a different type of personality. I would not be surprised if he joined with a villian, maybe Magneto.

I don't know enough about Warpath but he seems to be a simple type, probably not going to turn bad.

[Psycwave]

The only X-person we cant trust is Rockslide!! He is to dumb to not know when he is being manipulated by evil. We must dispose of him IMMEDIATELY!!!

[Naira K]

I'd trust Rogue. She's incredibly loyal to the X-men, and I think she sorta sacrificed her love for Gambit because she felt the X-men needed her. She didn't run looking for him when he became Apocalypse's horsman, right? I just love it how Carey made Rogue a cold-blooded practical person who puts the interests of her team before everything else.
I don't trust Gambit, I simply love him! I trust Emma a lil more than him. She does things her way, but she does them though.

[tangentman]

Rogue nearly died for the X-Men first time out of the gate. She didn't have to fly in front of Viper's laser blast. Logan saw her fly off with an armload of Viper's ninjas. If she'd really wanted to hurt the X-Men, she could have played dumb and let Viper fry Wolverine. The other X-Men were vulnerable, she could have easily killed them in their hospital beds.

IMO, Rogue's actions in Tokyo should have settled questions about her trustworthiness. She did the right thing when most of the team wasn't looking. Not only that, but Rogue turned on her own "mother" shortly afterward. More importantly, she again risked her life to save Colossus in that same issue. I think the X-Men considered Rogue redeemed long before she ever thought that about herself.

[The Black Guardian]

For that matter would you trust Gambit? Emma? Warpath? Feral? Elixir?
Sure, zebras don't change their stripes. It's kind of impossible for them. However, most people have the capacity to change. This is especially true of young people.

Rogue was a kid when she tried to kill Ali and Carol, and with the latter, she thought she was saving her own life. She was also a kid raised by Mystique, which is bound to screw a person up. At any rate, I think Rogue has paid for what she did to Carol. It probably would have been hard for me to accept her, at first, much like the other X-Men. But at this point (and it should be more than 4 years; more like 6 or 7), I'd even trust her with the lives of my family. She's just a person who screwed up once or twice, albeit hugely, but I know plenty of people that did the same when they were young. I count them among my close friends and family.

The same goes for Warpath and Elixir. Warpath's a great guy. He blame Xavier for his brother's death, but he learned how wrong he was. Elixir didn't even do much of anything.

Gambit, I would trust to a degree, but not fully. I'd try very hard not to place my life in his hands. I'd watch my back when dealing with him.

Feral, I wouldn't ever trust. She was only ever too much like her namesake.

After everything Emma's done, I would never trust her, and I wouldn't even associate with her.

[psychic_therapy]

Questionable decisions at times... but her heart's in the right place. So I'd trust Rogue.

[Perfection/Emma 2]

I TRUST ROGUE WITH ALL MY HEART AND SOUL! However with the other X-Men, I really don't know and I wouldn't associate myself with Cyclops,Emma, Wolverine, X-23, Hellion, Jean, Elixir, Cannonball, Prof X, Magneto, Mystique, Gambit, and Paylocke or any telepath's excluding Rachel for that matter. If they were real, I would only trust Rogue, Dazzler, Jubilee, Wind Dancer, Mercury, Loa, Wall Flower, Ice Man, Anole, Storm, and Surge for everyone else crosses me as shady or uncaring
