Evil cliffhanger! ;)

I'm still totally hooked on this and your updates can't come fast enough!

One thing has me a little stumped--I can't figure out who Gold is in the Marvel Universe. I'll have to do a little research. Hmm, it's not Carol, is it?

Author's Response: hey hun, good to hear from you. no, gold's not carol. sorry, i thought i made this clear in the second chapter: Gold and Red are *identical twins*. one of them is good and a doctor and in love with Scott Summerisle... And one of them is obsessed with Logan, can move things with her mind and occasionally has a shadow shaped like a masssive bird... oh, and she also hates stray... which character would that describe? ;-)

Very intense chapter. Enjoyed it a lot.

I am eager to find out what's going to happen next.

So many things, so many nuances revealed here so expertly by you, I am just overwhelmed!

I can barely function, waiting for the next installment of this beautifully crafted story.

SQUEEEEEEEEEEE!

I have been a little lost with what exactly was going on with this story but I love all of your stories here so I stuck it out because I knew I would eventually get it. Boy, oh boy!, am I glad I stuck it out. This is so good I had to reread everything because I am so exited with this! Please update soon.

Can I hit Mistress Red? Please? I’ll be quick and no-one has to know a thing! Just the once? it wouldn’t even have to be that hard (well actually, come to think about it, yeah it would and it would be aimed to inflict as much damage as possible, but again no-one has to know!) was going to call her a prima donna but first class BITCH sounds better to me. (Sorry just had to get that off my chest!)

Your imagination really is in overdrive on this one (in such a good way) and it’s great to read something so interestingly different. Roll on the next instalment cause I need answers to that slightly cryptic ending!!!

Oh man! Cliffhanger!! I wonder if Ororo shot Mistress Gold or Stray. Your descriptions are so vivid I could see the entire scene play out before my eyes. Excellent

I don't know if you have done it on purpose but you have a very Carnivale (the series) feel to this. There is mystery and intrigue and something vaguely off in the distance you can't quite see. I love it. (But I am weird. :))

What Jaq said.

You are on fire with this - you must be. I'm going to run out of things to say about your writing, your imagination, your incredible talent...everything. Red-gold strand of hair? Man, that is just so...so...perfect. I could feel the cold, the night, the TIGHTNESS of the damn thing!

Then there's lines like this that open the door of the world you've created and give me a front row seat:


...the trees spider-boned with winter, the snow falling over her hair like damp, wet kisses against her skin...

Now, I shall go read it again. :)

:) Happy face, Very Happy face – a late for work but who cares happy face! Love how this is still a story we know, still characters/scenes/situations we know - but specifically how you’re managing to re-write it all into this beautifully detailed, complex and unique world that is so so different yet not! no swearing today - this is great keep it coming x

And here, I must enquire, what are you smoking woman? The idea of a strand of HAIR as a weapon ... so twisted, and logical, and sinister, and original ... insanely good. An idea for the ages. One thing I adore about this fic is its timelessness, and how well it meshes with the X-men universe without being set in it. I'm going to think of it as the official, medieval-era prequel. You should bill Marvel, really.

"...hope that this whets the appetite for more..."

That it did indeed!

I really enjoyed their interaction in this chapter--how Stray continues to be so drawn to Logan and can't seem to stop reaching out to him. I am really looking forward to seeing how their relationship continues to develop.

Also, you said that this story is coming easier/faster for you to write, which all I have to about that is, "Thank God!" because I'm already impatiently waiting for the next chapter!

I'm SEEING this story, for some reason. Not just picturing the scenes, but actually seeing it in those deep-washed colours, all dark red and golds and deep greens ... the silk, of course. Beautiful, beautiful language, so evocative and rich and perfectly matched to the story; and then there's the tale itself, which is heading in a new and fascinating direction. Honestly, a masterwork.

Utterly perfect. I have never wanted to be a cigarette more in my life - lol!

And yet, you continue to maintain the beautiful tapestry here with this chapter. I am so happy you are popping these out so quickly. You are a master.

You stopped again – I swore again – you’d think I’d be more at ease with this chapter reading lark by now but alas I’m still as impatient as ever. Seriously – thank you for the quick update feel free to continue at that speed! Another great chapter, loving the uniqueness, its working really well for me. Well done x

It’s coming along an awful lot faster than most of my others. – Well I’m sure we can live with that :) and it can’t come fast enough as far as I’m concerned. I Love the Mythical/fable like telling of this story, it’s one of those fics you cant put down and then end up swearing at when you come to the end!
looking forward to more x

I'm really digging the whole Little Red Riding Hood vibe in this! You're making me want to go out and check out Company of Wolves and the new Red Riding Hood dvd. Also, I really love the connection that Stray and Logan seem to have. I can't wait to read the next chapter (can you hear me impatiently tapping my foot?). But I've got one question for you, how can a girl like me get an opportunity to count Logan as a friend too? Come on, spill it!

Not very often am I speechless! 10 out of 10 for originality and creativity this was fantastic.....such a unique concept with your writing giving us such wonderfully clear analogys let alone the mental images to go along with it.

‘And it was better she knew to be a live girl than a dead wolf at the side of the road.’
‘After all, it was better to be a live wolf than a dead girl, lying in the snow.’

Love the use of these two lines......1 fantasy and 1 reality but which is which should be the question!

I’m in……… x

I was totally immersed in the world you created - such fantastic imagery - and you had my heart pumping right along with Stray when she encountered the wolves. I can see who they are - man, you are just a wizard. I don't want you to get too distracted from F&R, but I really want you to update this one fast. :)

Very surreal little story. I can see how it would hold on and not let go.

Not what you usually do? And that could be a criticism? This is beautiful; the imagery so rich and the language incredibly evocative. I suspect you've seen Red Riding Hood recently and managed to find something worthwhile in there ... good for you! And haven't we all wanted to subsitute "wolf" for "wolverine" at some time ... because it fits Logan so damn well. Bated breath until the next one.
