Post by Northstars Love »

This is a Repost of a topic that was lost in the hack.

What if the X-Men lost their powers? Yet those with different physical appearances, other than human, remain in that form: like Beast for example.

Nighty would be in the Blue Man Group in Las Vegas. No need for make-up. He's come prepared. He'd really add to the show!:D

Gambit( this one's for TATU) would be a stripper(see Uncanny X-Men #425 and you'll see what I mean. I know its not really him but:lick)

Mystique would work for the Postal System. Or the DMV. Some of those people have bad attitudes. She'd fit right in.

Bobby, a centerfold for PlayGirl. Gotta start somewhere. He's a real cutie!:naughty

Logan would own a bar. Or just live in one as bamfboy suggested before.

Juggernaut a serious bouncer at a popular nightclub. Wouldn't want to mess with him:eek

Alex, another centerfold for PlayGirl. I think I'm developing a pattern here.:smirk Or in fact maybe some sort of sports figure.

Xavier, a teacher or counselor. He's got the smarts for one.

Jean and Scott, maybe teachers. Or maybe own some sort of business. A restaurant? A club? Don't really know.

What are your ideas?

That reminded me the High Revolutionary arc....the High Revolutionary took away all their powers and they turned the X-men into humans.....Rogue was more busy visiting mystique in jail than trying to jump on Gambit :evil, the only one who took advantage of the situation was Warren, he decided to go on vacations to a tropical place :D

....a stripper?! no..strippers are trashy
(especially the ones who dont dance but they march around angrily, but for calling him a stripper you shall feel my candy-coated wrath of doom! Where the hell are my M&M's?! :LOL )

i think he would be a chef, if im not insane (regardless of what the stamp on my forehead says..heh..) i remember there being refrences to him being a good cook

Domino - Leader of a S.W.A.T. team

Dazzler - Britney Spears Impersonator ( :LOL )

Northstar - he cold be a respected porn star ala Jenna Jameson, everyone loves her.. (personally i think shes funny as hell) :whistle

Or, more realistically, he becomes an actor. I can see him doing that. He's got the personality, fo sure.

:northie-Ken's hubbie. ^^ Professional skiier or accountant.
:prof-teacher for troubled kids, geneticist
:cyke-professional stick in the mud. Oh, wait.
:jean-ditto Jean.
Okay, Scott and Jean would do something together. Maybe open their own school. Teach people to be boring. *shrug*
:xorn-monk, author (self-help books)
:emma-She doesn't need a job, she's hot and has money. ^_^
:kitty-she'll finish college and become an astrophysicist

Funny, I could see that BB. In LA's gay pride parade. Or any gay pride parade really.:D

All the x-men would become firemen or vulounteers in international red cross, execept Xavier who would be lobbying in politics for equal rights for all oppressed minorities.
When they were not on duty fighting fires, or out helping people in The Third World, the X-men, both male and female, would perform in a unisex strip club that Xavier had bought.
That way the could still be saving the world and be erotic icons at the same time.

I think some X-Men would actually die or have massive traumas. Wolverine would di through poisoning and Storm probably wouldn't be able to handle losting he powers three times!

Better yet, Jean Paul and I would have a nice quaint Bed and Breakfast somewhere like Maine or in Canada.

Me--"Wouldn't you like to run a B&B with me Jean Paul?"

Jean Paul--"Ya...whatever."**goes back to reading War and Peace**

Me--"I've been sooo lonely these past few nights".:cry

I think
Xavier and Storm join politics for under-represented minorities
Cyclops becomes a mechanic
Juggy becomes a gym teacher
Psylocke teaches karate
Magneto and Toad get bored outta their skulls and become avid videogamers and professional wine-tasters
Jean Grey becomes spokesperson for Froot Loops (I don't know why but something about Froot Loops and Jean makes me laugh)
Mystique becomes a spy
Iceman can all of a sudden feel cold so he moves to the Caribbean
Kurt joins the circus and it travels to MY TOWN! Carson City Nevada!
Remy becomes a poker dealer at a local casino in Nevada so I can meet him in person
Rogue works at Remy's casino as a cocktail waitress. Anyone not drunk by the end of their stay gets beat by a stick.
Wolvie dies of adamantimu poisoning (he had a good run). Ditto Deathstrike.
