Sick chapter break. Love it. I also love the reversal in their roles between the flashback and the present time.
Author's Response: Thanks! I've tried to keep some balance over the POV switches, so glad to hear that's working!

I could pick out so, so many words/lines/paras that hit me, they seem to be constant, making the reading of this an absolute joy. You write with such depth and power but obviously I can’t rewrite the whole thing so here’s what stood out the most :)
Loved the description at the start, his desperation led impatience and fury at having to wait to get to her and then the disappointment, the realization that she’s not there at all. This first section was superb.
Loved her whole attitude, the way you gave her strength. Captive but not cowering.
And this :- ‘By the way, she says hello.’ Stunning way to end a para. Also love the little hints and flashes of the others in this [and the last chapter]
‘Stable. Tired. Drained. Alive.
He feels the same way.’
Brilliant description again in the above lines. You feel it and see it as you read about him waiting for her to wake up. And then the ending………what can I say? not what I was expecting so much more powerful and harder hitting when read - Didn’t think it could get any better but this chapter was on fire.
**glad you were pleased to know the format is working! – I am a beginning middle and end fan and definitely in that order so if I’m getting it, not having a problem with it and absolutely loving it, there is no excuse for anyone else!!!**
Author's Response: Oh...wow. You have, quite literally, made my day with this review. Seriously, I'm smiling all kinds of stupid-happy right now :-D I was actually really nervous about this chapter, since it was kind of a shift from the last ones, so to hear that you think so much of it worked is a relief. As always, it is WONDERFUL to hear what bits stand out the most, really helps me with future installments. And I am SO GLAD that the ending was both unexpected and powerful (and hopefully not TOO out of left-field). I think that there are a lot of ways that Rogue can go, when it comes to absorbing a truck-load of people. She has always struck me as a very strong character, and I wanted that to show in her reactions/responses to what happens to her throughout the fic.
