Can we talk about Russel??? Cause I miss him, my traumatized son. So does Deadpool. Give him his son back. Gimme my Pacific Islander rep back. Russel my beloved 🥹

Some headcanons for Russel and the peanutbub + Cable (I haven't forgotten about him either) family :} cause I'm feeling familial and somewhat wholesome

Someone please write a fic about them

Logan, Wade, and Cable share custody of Russel. If that child can get attached to Juggernaut, he can certainly bond with Logan and Cable. Cable after some explaining and (a lot of) therapy.

Russel is the s'more master

Given his propensity to burn things, especially after nightmares, the adults elected Russel stay at the X-mansion. Cable still has to deal with his trauma while Logan and Wade want him to bond with Laura. And also don't want to risk Al's life.

Russel starts off sort of scared of the X-mansion, thinking it'll turn out like the orphanage, but eventually loves it.

The kids at the mansion help him embrace his power, making him the s'more master he was born to be. He also helps with the grill. He loves it cause it makes him realize his power doesn't have to be dangerous.

Russel is like a weighted heat blanket. Only his closest friends get the privilege.

Russel is apprehensive about sparring, so Laura volunteers. It does take a while, but much like Logan with Wade, he gets used to someone being able to take what he gives.
