Go Marie!

As for Logan...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

You wouldn't do that...you couldn't.....you can't!

Author's Response: Aw, of course I wouldn\'t do that. ;-) I forgot that my Rogan guarantee is not on this website. I usually guarantee 1. My stories will have angst.\r\n\r\n2. My stories will have smut (and Rogue will always be a consenting adult).\r\n\r\n3. My stories will have a minimum of spelling and grammar errors.\r\n\r\n4. There will always be a happy ending.\r\n\r\n5. I will never leave a story unfinished.\r\n\r\nI\'m not sure how I\'ll get to the smut on this one (although I\'m working on it) but all my other guarantees still hold!

I'm glad you didn't. I devour 5 chapters to find that you have writer's block??? Seriously???? You have to get past it. I need details woman!

Love how they are covered with gore, and still push through. I mean blood can be scary, even if you are mutant who heals.

Most of all, I'm proud of Marie. She may be shaky, but she's not gonna break. Go girl!

Now, you must write the rest!

Thanks,
-Pepper

Author's Response: Ha, thanks so much for the encouragement! Don\'t worry, I\'m still slogging away, even though it\'s not coming easily. I love your assessment of Marie, that\'s exactly what I\'m going for. :-D

Yay! I decide to take a break and log on in time for your update. Glad to see you're pushing through!

Yup, he's the big, bad Wolverine, but he has such a caring and honorable side that rarely is shown. I mean, going through all this gritty stuff, he's not the one to deal with emotional distress, but he and Marie already have an inexplicable connection.

I know Marie is gonna have to deal with some serious issues when she lets those scary motherfuckers out. I'm hoping Logan will keep her anchored and Jubes & Kitty will be found.

Thanks,
-Pepper

Author's Response: Yeah, poor Marie, last thing you want to do after being traumatized by two psychos is to experience it from their perspective, but she\'s a touch chick, and she knows she has to. Thanks for the review!

X-men coming to the rescue! Take that you evil son of a bitches!!!!

I have to be honest, I usually go for fluffy, foofy, humorous fics because I need a good laugh or something...

But every now and then, a fic with beautiful character development like this one comes along that baits me and I'm stuck. (in a good way :)) Even foofy stuff won't help me unless I know what happens here. That just means you'll have me thinking up all these scenarios about what's happening with Kitty and Jubes and all the Rogan buildup until your next update.

Damn...

Thanks,
-Pepper

Author's Response: Hi there! Thanks so much for the compliment! I\'m so glad you\'re reading, and I hope that I can keep you hooked! ;-)

Aptly put title for this chapter..hehe.

And no Logan! Don't you dare break that connection.

I never would have expected Wolvie to buy heels for Jeanie...never. And the fact that he did, cracks me up.

As for Jean, I'm all for a bitchy Jean especially when Marie and Logan put her in her place back to back.

Finally, as for Marie, I always like kick-ass kinda girl. She isn't afraid and is all real unlike fake plastic Jean. (I just never liked Jean Grey the character...I always thought she was too overrated.)

Fantastic update, as always!

-Pepper

Author's Response: Yeah, I had originally called this chapter \"The Mansion,\" but \"The Bitch\" was just more fun. And, yeah, poor Wolvie, I did embarrass him a little. See my reasoning in the review below as to why he might have been willing to shell out for some Louboutins. In my mind it went something like, \"Girls like shoes. Jean is a classy girl, if I get her classy shoes she\'ll totally sleep with me. Now I\'m going to have a beer.\" And you\'re very right about Marie being real, and that being something that appeals to Logan. I actually had this whole tangent about how the animal in him hates when someone acts differently from how they really feel, but it just took away from the story. But I can really believe that to be the case, for a feral to find it very unnatural when someone lies.

Love it!! Especially Marie telling off Jean...

Author's Response: So glad you liked it! Thanks so much for reviewing!

Oooohhh...I was wondering about the sudden change in Marie's demeanor. The plot thickens!!!

-Pepper

Author's Response: Yeah, it\'s nice to know she wasn\'t just being a bitch for the fun of it, huh? For someone with trust issues I can see how she might jump to the wrong conclusion there. And yeah, I know the plot might be getting crazy complicated right now, but it\'ll all fall into place. Thanks for reviewing!
