Default Hellion’s Romantic Interest In X-23

When I was first introduced to Hellion last year, I got the impression that Julian Keller was the sort of boy who slept with all the pretty girls in his high school and then wrote about it on his blog. And he did not disappoint me in this exchange:



So my question is this. Considering Julian ‘Hellion’ Keller propensity to be mean and judgmental to people, who are not his ‘friends’. And his not to favourable opinion of women. How long do you think that he will maintain a romantic interest in Laura/X-23 (assuming he has any) when he finds out that she used to sell her body on the streets?

Why cant you handle the fact Hellion & X-23 have a thing?

Like, you don't like him, thats fine, W/E. But you can't change it, that it's a fact. So why not just accept it instead of trying to make out like it's not as important as it is?

It's pretty transparent what your intentions are with this thread, ya know?

I can't see why it would bother him. It's guys who don't have experience with girls that would have a problem with her past.

Oh Mia....

That is actually a very legitimate question.

Should Julian and Laura ever enter a romantic relationship, i hope they do but always in motion the future is, this is going to be an very interesting road bump for them to navigate.

Laura's done a lot of things in the past that are not very pretty. And Julian is going to have to understand that and let the past be the past. Focus on the present and dream of the future, this holds true especially for comic book characters.

Julian currently IMO is a character who's character is constantly changing. Some time like in the pic u posted he reverts back to his old jocky self, but in the latest X-Force he shows major concern for Laura's well being.

He like every character in the X-Men has plenty of room to grow, and while yes he has his major faults, he does have some very admirable qualities to him too. Especially his loyalty to his friends. Sure he can act like a major douche bag, but to be honest besides Wolverine or Deadpool i'd want Julian to have my back if shit went down.

**And his not to favourable opinion of women**

A person who hits on Women = A woman hater? Sunspot just tried to hit on Rogue in New Mutants, guess he's a woman hater too.

Is that what you are trying to say?

That comment about his opinion of women is really bizarre IMO. So he hit on a waitress big whoop dee freaking doo.

He has had plenty of good platonic and romantic relationships with women. First Emma was his mentor and maybe even like a older sister/aunt/mom to him. But then she back stabbed him at the end of NXM.

He's got a great brother/sister relationship with Cessily and he gets along with Sooraya great. Sure him and Surge can argue but they respect each other.

He cared a LOT about Sophia and he cares a lot about Laura too.

So his whole treats women like dirt dosent play out very well.

Yeah, it looks like you're doing some projecting, Mia. You've been burned in the past, and therefore any guy who is forward with a woman must have unfavorable opinion of them, right?

There is a world of variation outside of your personal experience, Mia.

His blog? Guys do that in high school this days? How about the girls, they don't do stuff like that?

Sounds like Betsy during her ice-queen/cold bitch period. A lot of X-Character has one time or another been writen like that.

Didn't Laura keep attacking all the X-Women at some time? Does she hate women?

Laura was created in a terrible way, she has a traumatic past and Julian knows that; I don't think that the fact that she used to sell her body on the street will change his feelings for her if he finds out. Besides, Laura slash people daily and Julian seem to be okay with that.

Yeah though some people find excessive violence more appropriate than sexual conduct. But

Ok man that's a tad bit harsh border line flame bait and somewhat uncalled for.

Maybe Mia is one of those people who hate people who have an active sex life? Or looks down upon them because of it?

The thing is, from the posts i read, Mia seems to hate certain characters for imo, petty, personal reasons.

She would be quick to point out that Hellion is a not good enough for Laura, because he flirts, but seems to forget that fact that he saved her life and MANY OTHERS. That's very narrow minded, ilogical, self serving imo.

I think the point of the Hellion/X-23 interest or insinuations of a possible relationship is to prove the fact that he is not merely a two-dimensional douche. Laura might soften his character a bit and give him more humanity. It's called character development and good/interesting writing.

Is Hellion interested in necrophilia? I'd say, yes.
