Dick: Mary Grayson was absolutely lovely and Dick still loves her to this day. He only knew her for about 9 years, though, so his memories of her aren't the strongest. The main thing he remembers of her is a handful of Romani words that he still uses from time to time.

He also has her smile, according to Melinda's mom.

She died when he was very young and Bruce took him in. Bruce and Alfred were basically mother and father to him for a long time.

Sam: To call Mary (Campbell) Winchester "complicated" may be underselling things. Sam takes after her most in that he never wanted to be a Hunter and did his best to find a way out. She apparently loved her sons very much.

She also unwittingly sold her younger son's soul to save John's life. (Also, why do I have two characters whose parents are named John and Mary?) Like, if John had died, Dean and Sam wouldn't exist. But, also, SO much shit wouldn't have gone down. And, really, neither Heaven nor Hell would have allowed that to happen.

Still. She did sacrifice her life to try to protect Sam, and her spirit DID sacrifice itself to protect the family home when they were trapped there.

She wasn't a terrible woman. And it's implied that John was at least somewhat abusive. So she wasn't in a great position. But, really, the only real memory Sam has of Mary is her spirit in the house.

Remy: I mean. Depending on what timeline you believe in, Remy MIGHT be a clone of Mr. Sinister and Scott Summers. Don't ask how that works. It's Mr. Sinister.

But that's a possible future timeline, so I tend to discard at least part of it. But Olly and Rachel are adorable, so I keep them.

That said. Even in the normal timeline, Remy doesn't know who his biological mother is. Or his biological father. Jean-Luc destroyed that information years and years ago. So, if anybody does know who his parents are, it's probably Jean-Luc. And Remy isn't asking.

But! He did, eventually, have a female influence in his upbringing. Tante Mattie basically helped Jean-Luc raise him. She taught him how to cook and how to do pretty much anything that doesn't involve thieving. Hell, she probably taught him how to shave, too, because Jean-Luc and Henri both had beards.

If you want to hear about anybody in specific, let me know.

My X-Men knowledge mostly comes from the 90s cartoon, X-Men '97, other adaptations, and random wiki dives. So I had to do a double take seeing the name "Jean-Luc."

Also, jesus. Mr. Sinister really likes messing with other people's DNA, huh?

Fun fact. There's a timeline where Remy's name is given (possibly as an alias) as Remy Picard. He's also a known Trekkie.

And yes. Sinister loves that sort of thing.

But, also, I don't think his father had been named in the comics at the time of THAT episode in the cartoon.

lol

Bahahaha. Surprise Trekkie Easter egg!

It's hilarious and I love it, the nerd.

Him being a known Trekkie is a regular canon thing, I should point out. But I can't see why it wouldn't be a thing in other timelines.

This is a very amusing thing to learn about Remy because I love him so much in the 90s series and in 97
