Quiet, sarcastic, dangerous. Rogue was like a hidden gem, and Gambit knew what she was worth. He never could resist a challenge. A collection of Romy drabbles ranging from 100 to 1000 words.

Prompt: Package
Fandom: X-Men: Evolution
Pairing: Romy
Summary: Gambit was hardly trustworthy, but even still, Rogue should have known better.

When one saw Remy Leabeau with a package, he or she did not just turn away. It could have anything in it. Anything. The man had stolen information, high tech equipment for mutant hunting, groceries, jewelry, and anything else someone could want.

He could have a bomb in the box, an expensive gift, an IOU card, a body part, anything. What you received depended entirely on who you were and how much your biggest adversary was willing to pay to take you down.

Which was why Rogue almost leaped out of the way when he offered her a jewelry box.
