I like the unique style in which this is written.
“So. You’re a certified bad-ass now.” - you're damn right she is and what's better than a bad-ass Rogue?
“Even me?” She raises an eyebrow at him. “If you’re any good." - love that so, so much!
Author's Response: Thank you for comments on the style--I\'m glad you liked those lines! I, too, am a definite supporter of bad-ass!Rogue.
Heart breaking. Seriously. And I loved it.
Author's Response: YAY! Lol So happy you loved it.
Hello there Alexmonalisa! Very interesting story, certainly something a little different and I'm all for that. And a great story-title too.
Fav line: "I saw him as a threat. The real threat was actually on Marie’s other side, hovering in the shadows."
I checked out your art too. Good work.
Ha ha, I like it! Especially Pyro's response! :)
Author's Response: thanks! :)
I don't know the song, but either way, this was an intensely sweet little piece. I liked it. :)
Author's Response: It\'s an old song but I love it when I\'m not in an I.C.P mood.
Hello! Yes, it's me again. :-)
"He carried the box up Prewer street, boots sloshing through gravy-thick water, cigarette foil and beer caps. He thought about Stebbins, what a waste the day had been--no names collected at all--and people who wouldn't steal money when they find it on the ground." - I love lines like these, I think they are almost hidden, do you know what I mean? Like 'filler' lines to move you from one place to the next, so easily over-looked, and yet they set the scene perfectly and say so much.
"She could be kinda pretty, he thought absently to himself. Nice--nice lips. Nice chin. Slender little neck. Pale." - I love the delicate way you describe Rogue here.
"Why are you surprised?, Logan asked himself as he walked to the door that belonged to him. You're not a nice person. You don't do nice things. Stop pretending." - great line, it says a lot about Logan's frame of mind.
So again, I'll stop re-quoting your story back to you (I'm sure you're familiar with every line!) and just tell you that I love your work.
Author's Response: Hello! The re-quoting is almost my favorite part. ;~) Im grateful for it. Thank you very very very much. Congratulations, you are my favorite person right now.
I adore this chapter; it comes across effortless and unrushed, and I’m loving the build up. I can’t wait to learn more about Rogue’s background...
Author's Response: Effortless? Heh. Ive nicknamed my notebook \"Little astard\" and I alternately cuss/sweet talk it and my pen when I get stuck, which is every ten minutes....God I wish that was a joke. But Im so glad it seemed that way! Lol. Thank you!
I'm finally back on-line, it's nearly Friday (yay!), my hubby is happily absorbed in the golf and I smile to myself that I can relax here (with a cold bottle of beer, of course) and enjoy another RoseSumner story. Am I becoming a freakish stalker fangirl of yours? YES!
"Whitmoore's finger hadn't clotted, but the blood wasn't gushing quite so fast. Instead, it seemed to unwind and fall from the hole like wet ribbon." - it's lines like these that makes me a fangirl. So descriptive, so brilliant.
"The flesh at the front of the blades did not bunch up, but parted like meat cooked all day." - what a 'Stephen King-esk' line. Love it!
The intro of 'Marie' is perfectly done.
"It had eight deadbolts and two chains on the opposite side that he never once turned during his stay. Let 'em try". - that is Logan, through and through.
So here we are again, you writing a great story and me writing ridiculously long reviews! Love it and can't wait for the next installment...
Author's Response: Oh, lord. I had the world\'s worst/craziest day at work. And this review made everything wonderful again. Thank you multiplied by five hundred. I\'m so glad you like it (until the first reviews, I\'m always convinced that I\'ve posted worthless trash and should delete it immediately, before someone sees). \r\n\r\n Wow. Stephen King is my favorite writer. >bounces, dances<\r\n\r\n I\'m in the library, so I probably shouldn\'t hug my monitor....but I cross-my-heart-pinkie-promise that there is no such thing as too long of review. I\'ll believe in Unicorns and The Goodness of Hitler berfore that.
Oh, I was so happy when I received my alert for this story! I love how you ever-so-slowly build up their interaction, tiny piece by tiny little piece. Brilliant.
Loved this line: "Just looking at him provided answers to questions before anybody asked them: No, you could not run fast enough; No, you did not have a chance." Damn right - lol! :-)
Author's Response: Bet I was happier getting your review. :~) Thank you!!
Oh, how do you write something so heart-rending it makes me squirm away from my laptop? (And I mean that as a compliment to your amazing writing). I almost can't bear Rogue's predicament, I want to sweep her away from that awful life and make everything okay. But I guess (hope!) that’s what our hunky growliness is going to do, in his own unique way...? :-)
Author's Response: Squee! >hugs with eyes closed tightly< Im so glad I could make something have that effect on anyone. Thank you.
Best chapter yet, (although they are all brilliant!). I just love how you build up their interaction and relationship so slowly and carefully, ever so thoughtfully.
“If she wanted to eat, she was going to sit her ass inside and talk to him. Like he was normal. Like he was capable of doing a good thing.” – oh, what an amazing insight into Logan’s mind.
And as for the end, once again you manage to break my heart. Poor, poor little Rogue. I wish I could give her a hug and tell her Logan will take care of her! (And that’s when I have to remind myself they are not real people – lol!)
I look forward to the next update, as ever...
Author's Response: Thanks-a-mundo (Uh-huh, thats right, I said thanks-a-mundo) for the beautiful sentiments. >hugs< Im so glad you think so.
I was so excited when I received my alert for this amazing story. I couldn’t wait to get out the office, get home, and absorb myself. And I was not disappointed, it was worth the agonising wait. Although I was not quite prepared to have my heart broken. Again. How do you do that??!
“He didn't know, at first, who Logan was talking about, and that would cost him. He said, "She was good, man.", and that would cost him more.” – perfect ‘Wolverine-esk’ thoughts.
So, could I opt for the naked Hugh Jackman? Could you possibly send the real thing rather than a photo? If so, could you also assist with a suitable explanation to give my poor hubby?
:o)
Author's Response: Once they perfect human cloning, I say we nominate Hugh as the first subject. Everyone should have their own personal Logan. >lost in fantasy for several minutes< And a personal you, because your reviews are unbelievable. Thank you; you made my day...btw, its doesn\'t count as cheating with Mr. Jackman. Just offer him the same forgiveness if he ever finds himself in a room with Halle Berry.
So here I am again, gushing over your amazing writing, wanting to sob because this chapter was so heartfelt. But I refuse to cry because, well, that would be ridiculous, right? Because they’re not even real people and I’m not still stood in the corner of Logan’s apartment watching that scene play out. Right?
“He picked the quilt off the floor, tucked her back in and listened to her beg him to stop something he hadn't begun.” – okay, I’m definitely going to cry. And my hubby is going to think I’ve lost my mind when I try to explain why...
Author's Response: You\'re saying this to the girl who gets teary eyed over road kill and Allstate commercials? Lol. >hugs< Thank you very much, and don\'t take this the wrong way but I hope you keep crying.
Firstly, I am sorry to hear about your friend. Life can be inexplicable and cruel.
“Sometimes she wished he would hurry up and hurt her, do whatever he wanted. She needed to get used to it.” – I’ve said it before, but you seem to know the words to break my heart. And there it is again. You deal with poor Rogue and her horrific experience so carefully, sensitively and unrushed, which is precisely how it should be handled.
“By the end of the program he could say how many times her eyes had watered, but not which team had won.” – I can just picture this scene, so moving.
I am SO excited that chapter ten may be up soon. I will keep checking for my alert like the crazed fan-girl I have become...
Author's Response: When I got home and saw the new review, I chanted, \"Please be Comic-Cake. Please be Comic-Cake. Please be Comic-Cake. Please be--\". And yay!! Thank you for being so kind. Im ALMOST done with chapter ten; I was only able to use the computer for an little while this morning. I had a dentist appointment--an hour of fingers and drills in my mouthe; the entire right side of my face is numb. Fun times. But I WILL have the chapter up today. I swear on Hugh Jackman.
Yes, it’s your crazy fan-girl stalker again! I'm considering emigrating, because we're clearly in different time zones and so my alert comes in the middle of the night and I have no time in the morning to absorb myself in this amazing story and then I refuse to read it in work with all the interruptions... anywhoooo...
What an emotional, disturbing and heart-breaking chapter. Quite simply, your writing is wonderful.
“And if in the next, Logan rolled over and spoiled the illusion, it would be okay. That would be okay, it really would…” – an outstanding demonstration of her mind-set in so few words.
When you replayed her horrific experience, I found myself physically cringing away from the laptop, it was so distressing. But once again, this is a credit to your writing.
So I’ll stop gushing now. Oh, and I vote for one long story, but whatever you decide, I’ll follow…
Author's Response: Bet that\'s a reason for travel the airlines haven\'t heard before. I have fan girls!!! Yaaaaay!! Im sorry to make you cringe; I didn\'t mean to go that far. Thanks for this: it made a headache-inducing day much better.
This chapter is gripping. And the second-to-last paragraph, where you describe the city, is so perfectly written: “Grey slush on the roads, rainbows made by spilled gasoline and street lamps.” – love it.
“He reminded himself that he was strong; he was The Wolverine; he didn't do pussy shit like faint.” – Logan – ever the hero - lol!
So I’ve had to endure a ghastly Monday at work (aren’t they all?!), but having this to look forward to (yes, my alert came in the middle of the night again, I'm still trying to convince the hubby this is a good enough reason to emigrate!) has helped me through. Thank you RoseSumner!
Author's Response: I\'m glad that people liked that. I redid that paragraph at the last second. I had something completely different. Supermambogracias. I hope your next Monday goes better!
Well, what can I say? What an amazing and captivating chapter. Life is so crazy right now that I have zero time to write and little time to read and review, however this is one story I could never miss. Love it!
“Packs of nerds walking around, sweaty masks contrasting oddly with their pale necks. Should certainly grease the girl's way into the mansion.” – hahahahaha!
Author's Response: I\'m so glad. Thank you+hug+big bowl of chocolate cake batter that you can cook or eat raw-I won\'t judge.
I loved it! Original and sexy. Great combination!
"Mine, Ah think, Mine, Mine, Mine, Fucking Mine-" - couldn't agree more! :-)
Author's Response: there is just something about a certain feral that makes us girls territorial, isn\'t there? (grins evilly). glad you enjoyed it, love
Ooooh, I am thoroughly intrigued by this opening chapter, and I like your feisty Rogue, so I will be following, Dromeda. :-)
"She fisted large handfuls of the leather jacket--Logan's--folded on her lap in her gloved hands like the security blanket she'd never admit it was." - loved that line.
Your descriptions of Stark Towers was so brilliantly done I felt like I was walking along with them, taking in the scenery! This is an exciting and intriguing story and I look forward to more...
"She'd have loved catching the grave robbers in the act; they'd be laid out on the grounds, nothing but twitching masses." - a headstrong Rogue - my fav!
Once again, a compelling chapter and extremely well written. I praise your interpretation of Tony Stark, such a likable character. I also love the closing line. I look forward to more...
I was as frustrated as Rogue that she was held back by her sickness, however now she is on the mend, I can’t wait to see if they can locate Logan. As I said before, this is intriguing and unique; I look forward to the next instalment...
Cute, cute, cute. I soooooo want them to be together! Please make it happen...
“You two just give off that vibe. It’s not what you do. It’s the way you look at each other. The way you act and what you say." - and that's my point precisely. I demand you make it happen!!
:-)
I adored this chapter, I can feel (read!) the tension building between them. Great stuff.
“I’m with the most dangerous man alive.” I pointed out. Remy’s gaze flickered to Logan and then back to mine. “My point exactly." - loved those lines.
And the way Rogue handled Logan when he was prying into her evening with Bobby - very entertaining.
Cute, cute, cute, cute, cute! So cute! :-)
“You two are just adorable.” - awwww, they really are, aren't they?
