This is one of my all-time favorite stories. You do a great job of capturing personalities through dialogue, and telling stories through routine encounters. I especially like how Kevin realizes that his friends are potentially dangerous, but thinks of them first as real people and not their mutations. And the story's just darn funny in places, too. :)

"And what is it that you teach Mr....Logan?"

"Art."

I re-read this story everytime I need a laugh, and it always works. :) Thanks for writing such great stuff!

Man, oh man, I STILL love this story. Every time I read it... it's just so good. Great plot and character development, convincing dialogue, vivid descriptions. Rou-- you gotta post some more stuff! I miss your writing.

I've read this series several times, and I always enjoy it. I especially appreciate how Rogue and Logan start to realize that they're already so much better suited for a romantic love relationship than the other relationships they've had. I think you do a great job of describing what I feel to be the best type of love-- the one that gives support, encouragement, strength. The kind that makes you a stronger, more peaceful person. We over-value the firey romance these days and forget that the deepest, longest, most life-giving loves include passion but aren't restricted or even entirely defined by it. Ok, here endeth the monologue. Great job with this series, the characterizations, the situations, the everything.

What's inside matters the most.

Just read this for the first time and loved it. Thanks for posting. I particularly like the way you've characterized Logan. All rough edges and a good heart. Sigh.

Yahoo! Thanks for the update! Very cool. I like the idea of the 'upgrade', and look forward to seeing how it all plays out.

Date: 04/20/2011 Title: Chapter 29: Chapter 29

Where have you been?!? Nevermind, just don't_go_anywhere! :) At least, not until you've finished this story. Great update! I like Rogue's self-confidence and the ease of her and Logan's relationship, despite the craziness of her 'upgrade'. And what a cliffhanger... ahhh! *Please* keep the updates coming!

Sometimes we get the balance wrong. Life is not about knowing the answers, life is what happens while you're looking for them. And the bad decisions? The screw-ups? They're what keep it interesting.

I agree-- you could've ended it without the epilogue, but I'm glad you didn't. :o) You have a great narrative style. Thanks for the story! PS- Your story has one of my favorite characterizations of Scott!

Author's Response: *lol* - Scott was one of my favourites to write in this fic. I loved having a snarky outlet - glad you liked him! And the ending :o)

Forced to confront his past, a past he no longer wants, Scott's back in New York. However, trouble has followed and the X-men are about to find out that his loyalties lay with the woman he loves - and the life he built.

Classic girl meets boy. Mostly movieverse, but some things have switched around a little.

I love the title, I love the confrontation with Scott, and darn her darned mutation! Hope this doesn't cause too much trouble... Or at least, not trouble that can't be entertainingly resolved in the course of the story. Yeah! Keep updating! :)

Date: 05/28/2010 Title: Chapter 11: Too good to be true?

Yeah, an update! Thank you! Geez, Scott-- what a jerk. What's Jubilee see in him? I mean, seriously, what a blind spot. It's nice to have a good-Jean. I like evil-Jean as much as the next fan, but I also like variety. Good writing of Logan's point of view! And please, update soon!

It's ten years after the cure, and Rogue's fiance wants nothing to do with a woman who might have mutant children. Logan steps in to offer her a last chance at the life she always wanted.

Ahh... I love love love this story. Keeps me on an emotional rollercoaster: current stop introspection laced with laughter. Thanks for coming back to it (and Gauntlet)! Rogue's showing a lot of maturity in this chapter, being able to objectively consider Jubilee's sentiments without getting caught up in being angry (like I was!). Keep up the good work! This is much more interesting than what I'm *supposed* to be reading right now. :o)

Oh, Jacie! Poor thing. I'll be glad when Mr. Logan puts her heart at ease. (Good to have you back!)

Rogue goes to take the cure and is set up in the process. Coming out of it, she forms a new family containing old foes and new friends alike...

Over? Over?!? Ah.... all good things must end, I suppose. Thank you so much for this story, and persevering through everything and still writing it when life got messy.

And now I must see to my baby, who has been patient (or as patient as a baby can be) while I read this last (sniff sniff) chapter.

So... when's the next story? :o)

Yeah, round 2! Been lookin' forward to this. This Logan (seriously rough around the edges, but basically decent) is very convincing to me. I'll be keepin' an eye out for chapter 3. :)

Author's Response: This Logan. I don\'t know what his prob is, he doesn\'t really want to talk to me besides nag nag nag. We\'re working through it though, chap 3 up soon hopefully.

Go, Rogue! Seriously though, what's with the crappy security? The Brotherhood having labor problems? I guess every evil genius has an Achilles heel.

I vote for the speech. Have Scott take the high road. As for the Logan-of-this-story, I say good riddance! Jean can have him. Cheaters deserve each other. Stay strong, Scott! (By the way, I love Rogue's inner dialogue in Chapter 1.)

Author's Response: Scott will mostlikely still be drunk off his ass it just hits my funny bone. I lovethe dialogue as well but \'s not easy to write.

Once upon a time, there was this really overlong and convoluted AU how-they-met fic. It wasn't finished. Now it is.

So here it is from the beginning.

Yeah! Thank you for updating so quickly. I'm really enjoying this story, especially your telling it from multiple perspectives. It gives me an understanding of and sympathy with the characters. In that vein, how about a chapter from Scott's perspective? How did he get so cold? Why is he angry? What's going on in his mind? I love that I get the answers to these kinds of questions about the other characters!

Author's Response: From Scott? Well...hang in there. Something may be coming. Eventually.

I agree with Anami--- I'm liking Jean in this one. While I enjoy a good Jean-as-evil story as much as the next girl, it makes more sense to me that Jean would be a generally thoughtful and caring, if flawed, person. Great job! Keep going!

Date: 02/01/2010 Title: Chapter 21: A Vision In The Temple

Oh man. Please update. Soon. I'm totally caught up in this story. Your Rogue and Wolverine are a lot different than I imagine them, but you've sold me on the characters and I have to know what happens to them. Ack! How am I ever going to concentrate on my work now...

Author's Response: Ack! I will hurry and tell you what happens next. Only then, you\'re just going to want to know what happens after that...aren\'t you? ;) Seriously, thank you so much for the kind words.
