Logan Howlett/Wade Wilson

Logan/Wade is a slash pairing of Logan Howlett (Wolverine) and Wade Wilson (Deadpool) from the Marvel Comics and Deadpool Movieverse fandoms.
The pairing had previously existed in Marvel fandom but was relatively uncommon. It exploded in popularity with the release of the 2024 Deadpool & Wolverine movie, quickly becoming one of the most popular ships for both characters.

=== Common Tropes in Fanworks ===
* Alcohol Use/Alcoholism: Logan is commonly canonically depicted as an alcoholic, which fanworks often reference or depict.
* Angst/Whump: Logan and Wade are traumatized characters with tragic backstories and self-loathing; this lends itself well to angsty fanworks.
* Hurt/Comfort: One character may be hurt by outside factors and then comforted by the other, or be hurt by the other character and then apologized to and cared for by them.
* Crossdressing: Wade canonically cross-dresses often and this is popular to portray.
* Fourth Wall Breaks: The character of Deadpool canonically breaks the fourth wall near-constantly, and this often carries over into fanworks.
* Get Together/Confessing/Didn't Know They Were Dating: Logan may be portrayed as doubtful of Wade's canon-typical flirting, or Wade may be portrayed as oblivious to Logan's true feelings or sincerity.
* Car Sex/Hatesex: Many fanworks revolve around the Honda Odyssey Car Fight Scene from Deadpool & Wolverine, usually extending or changing the scene to add smut.
* Pet Play: Logan's animal-like aspects and instincts lead many creators to create fanworks involving pet play. Logan usually plays the part of the pet, most popularly as a puppy or kitty.
* S&M/Masochism/Blood Play/Blood Kink: It is very common to portray both characters as interested in S&M, specifically both as masochists. See: Honda Odyssey fight scene in Deadpool 3.
* Darkfic/Gore: The characters' fast regenerative abilities allow fans to indulge in darker tropes without holding back, knowing that both will heal and turn out okay no matter what.
=== Common Headcanons in Fanworks ===
* Animal Traits: Fans often exaggerate Logan's animal-like aspects and instincts, including his canon heightened senses of smell and hearing, or add new ones such as Heat, Mating, Knotting, Biting, or A/B/O dynamics. There is often crossover with the Pet Play trope.
* Chronic Illness/Chronic Pain: Occasionally fans will create works involving both characters having chronic illness or pain due to their respective sickness or mutations; this is semi-canon to both depending on the original work and universe. In fanworks there is often crossover with Hurt/Comfort, Domestic Fluff, Sickfic, and Alcoholism/Drug Use tropes.
* Suicidal Themes: References or depictions of both characters having suicidal ideation, suicide attempts, and self-harm are somewhat common in fanworks.

=== Fanfiction ===
* 'Cause Nothing's Going Right by The_First_and_the_Last - Logan comforts Wade during an after-mission panic attack.
"Logan still didn’t take the bait; in fact, his expression was rapidly skewing from its customary irritation into something that looked horribly like genuine concern."
* smoke me out (break my back) by deliciously_devient - The characters' bad chronic pain leads them to escape through a day of marijuana use; casual sex and getting together ensue.
"Wade can sense that, in this moment, he has to tread carefully; he knows Logan, and he can tell that this is one of those rare moments he's decided to share something personal, something intimate, and the next thing Wade says is going to decide if he gets another one of these moments."
* Feel Good, Broken Man by farmhandler - Logan deals with the fallout of Wade's repeated suicide attempts and confesses his love. Dead dove warning.
"'I’m not…fucking good at any of this,' Logan said tiredly. He sat up and faced Wade, who jumped a little, like he hadn’t expected it. 'I don’t know what the fuck to say to you. I just need you…to stop.'"
* (i can't wait for you to) shut me up by Edgebug - A Honda Odyssey Fight Scene fic involving canon-typical violence and power bottom Logan. Dead dove warning.
"The worst part of all of this, Wade thinks, is that Logan is devastatingly sexy with Wade's blood all over him, and even though he really did just verbally tear Wade a brand-new asshole, insult his ex-girlfriend, and stab him at least a hundred and fifty-three times with his horrible knife hands, Wade would still, regrettably, smash."
* c'mon and twist the knife (let's make it painful) by americanpie - A Honda Odyssey Fight Scene fic involving knife play and extreme masochism. Dead dove warning.
"Wade pauses. He freezes, blinks, freezes again, then looks frantically around the car when Logan moans from the very back of his throat and there’s something in there that doesn’t exactly spell out I feel like I’m being stabbed within an inch of my life."
