love the complexity of your rogue. i've been in similar positions where you want something so bad one second and then the next you were wondering what the hell you were thinking. the need to run, escape, protect can become overwhelming at times. like 1 step forward, 2 steps back. i can't wait to see how things go between rogue and the prof, then her and logan, so excited!!! another *amazing* chappie, as always, please update soon!

Author's Response: I\'m so glad you are liking Marie\'s character development. To be honest, I had no idea that she was going to have that panic attack, it just happened. ;-) Glad you\'re excited, hope the next chapter lives up to your expectations!

i hope wolvie realizes exactly how hard this is gonna be on her. channeling a couple of sociopaths so she feels what they felt, that's asking a lot of person. great update!!!

Author's Response: Yeah, but that\'s why Wolvie is being such a sweetheart here...he doesn\'t ask. He leaves it up to her. It won\'t be easy, but she\'s a tough chick. :-D

what the FUCK did xavier 'say' to her?! she was fine until her scent changed to panic and she was looking right at chuck when it did, so he must've of said something to her telepathically. that or like one of her psyches figured something out about the xmen that freaked her out. i'm so curious to see what happened and why she asked for those things. like logan said, it doesn't make sense.

this was *such* a good update!!! i love how strong your rogue is. most rogan stories have her immediately leaning on logan, him solving her all problems. i like how here she's true to lots of RL abuse survivors, very cautious and hesitant to give her trust. honestly, she's risked more than he has so far in their relationship. *she* broke them out, *she* saved his life by playing nurse, *she* accessed the memories of a sociopath to help him. sure he's brought her to the mansion and stood up to jean for her but that last bit marie wasn't around to see.

sorry, totally rambling. a sure sign i'm in love with a story! again, can't wait 'til the next update!

Author's Response: :-) Hope the next chapter satisfied your curiosity. Thanks so much for your review! Yeah, I feel like this Rogue is in some ways a reaction to the last, who was just so broken and lost that she really clung to Logan. I wanted this Rogue to be much more prickly and independent. I just hope I can keep her that way -- I\'m having to resist the urge to make her all gushy about Logan. I mean...who wouldn\'t be? ;-)

oooo, exciting chappie!

Author's Response: Glad you thought so! Thanks for leaving a review. :-D

epic update! but definitely focus on exams, and fanfic as a fun escape from RL. good luck and hope to read more as soon as you're able!

Author's Response: Thanks for the review! Don\'t worry, I\'ll study hard...just an occasional fanfic break here or there. ;-)

beautiful. beautiful. beautiful.

i love how logan's love swept into her and filled her up like scott's twisted need did previously. and how you ended it realistically, without a 'perfect' ending where she's miraculously healed and over the abuse. it would take time to heal from something like that, all the lies and abuse. but how you wrote it, hopeful, was wonderful. knowing the road would be hard, but knowing too that it *would* work out.

wonderful writing, as always!

Author's Response: Tee hee...seriously you have me giggling at your praise! Thanks for the feedback. I was really hoping this ending wouldn\'t disappoint. Relief to know you liked it! :-D

love the last line, 'going rogue.' great update, love reading from rogue's pov to see what she felt.

Author's Response: hahaha Thank you!!!

short but great!

Author's Response: Thank you!

yay for updates!

Author's Response: Yay for reviews! ;)

marie will save him! she's not gonna let vickie hurt her man or her dog! plus it's only right she be the one to kill him anyway. love reading jack's POVs, they're fun. i hope bobby's ok though, just tied up somewhere or even taking a nap in his patrol car or something, not dead. can't wait for marie to come to the rescue, she's totally capable!

Author's Response: Well, our Marie is more than capable isn\'t she? Thanks for the review!

wonderful epilogue! love that it was jack's pov!

Author's Response: Thank you! The idea came to me a few days ago and I thought it was the perfect way to end the story. Glad you liked it!

what a dick! he freaking kissed jean in front of rogue?!? and what happened with him being over her or at least acknowledging that she was using him?! gahhh! poor scott is right, i a rogan girl through and through but i feel so bad for poor scott! who knows, maybe he and rogue can strike up a friendship, maybe more... amazing update, don't leave us in suspense for too long!

Author's Response: Thanks Loved your review after I turn in My five page paper I will update.
