[[caption-width-right:350:The bride and groom.]]

ComicBook/{{Rogue}} and ComicBook/{{Gambit}} have finally tied the knot and gotten married (even if it was originally supposed to be Kitty Pryde and Piotr Rasputin's wedding). They exchanged the vows and said, "I do." So what comes next? The honeymoon, of course. And Gambit has made sure that they honeymoon in a place where nobody can bother them: space!

Except, well, this is the X-Men and sometimes the X-Men need to go into space. When Kitty needs someone to go on a mission to Shi'ar space and retrieve a valuable object, she has to recruit the honeymooners on their spaceship since they are the closest ones. She just didn't tell them that they would be facing against the Shi'ar Imperial Guard. Or that Deadpool had stowed away.

A 2018 comic book written by Kelly Thompson, with art by Oscar Bazaldua, ''Mr. and Mrs. X'' was first advertised as ''CLASSIFIED'' before the reveal that it was about the newly married Rogue and Gambit in the wake of ''ComicBook/XMenGold'' #30.

!Tropes included:

* ContinuityNod:
** There's a number of callbacks to ''ComicBook/RogueAndGambit'', considering they have the same writer (Kelly Thompson).
** Magik wants to get back to the party before the cake is gone, a CallBack to her appearance in ''ComicBook/SecretWarriors2017'', where she complained that the X-Men never let her eat cake.
** Laura and Gabby are part of Gambit's side of the wedding, calling back to Gambit befriending Laura in her solo series (and then meeting and befriending Gabby in ''ComicBook/AllNewWolverine'').
** When Mystique shows up at the wedding, Rogue lists off a number of plots that Mystique has orchestrated over the years, including ''seducing Gambit herself''.
** The end of the first appearance has Deadpool show up, probably since Rogue kissed him during ''ComicBook/UncannyAvengers''.
* CrossesTheLineTwice: [[ComicBook/{{X23}} Laura]] notices that Gambit is nervous right before the wedding, so offers to stab him in order to distract him. Gambit politely declines. What makes this even better is that Laura still has her claws out from [[MundaneUtility cutting Gambit's hair]].
* EvilMatriarch: Mystique, although she sees herself more as an EducationMama. Even though she causes no trouble at the wedding, she still says, "Could I interest you in a different groom?"
* ModestyTowel: Rogue and Gambit ''are'' on their honeymoon, so they (ahem) make love, it just happens that Kitty calls them right afterwards. And when Rogue agrees to go on the mission, Gambit [[NakedPeopleAreFunny loses the blanket]], to the horror of Kitty.

* PowerNullifier: Rogue finds a mutant power dampener in the basement of the X-Mansion so that she can kiss (and do other things with) Gambit. She complains that its big and heavy, wondering why nobody created a smaller, more compact version that looks like jewelry -- before Beast reminds her that most mutants don't really ''want'' to dampen their powers.
* SpidersAreScary: Magik, despite growing up in Limbo, still finds spiders "icky."
