The Wolverine & Rogue Fanfiction Archive
Barely Legal Since 2000
I think this is my perfect idea of romance. Not the embarrassing pubic declarations, or the needing to get dressed up in fancy clothes to celebrate something, just the everyday gestures.
Also, I LOVE the idea of Logan having his ring already on his finger after her tosses Rogue hers. Why shouldn't guys get an engagement ring too?
Whenever I need a good giggle with a sexy times story I always run back to this one. Especially Rogue's last line, which had absolutely had me snickering outloud in public. People on the bus have no idea what they are missing.
I think that reviewer whi wanted to know about the wristlet was me. Thank you so much for the extra detailed description and for the updated note! I have this and the rest of the "Apples" stories favorited, but the wristlet fascinated me because the words "golden circlet" immediately reminded of another labor of Hercules', the Golden Girdle of Hippolyta. For a long time Rogue/Marie was like an Amazon, untouched by man under penalty of death, and Hippolyta's girdle was the physical symbol of her status within the Amazon society. Her giving it to Hercules, and then Logan giving it to Rogue/Marie just struck me as symbolic of their equal standing in those men's lives.
Or maybe I'm a touch sleep deprived, re-reading fanfiction instead of doing work/cleaning.
Either way, thank you for the update even though you are no longer actively writing.
Oh God, I had forgotten about this story until I saw your name in the "Recent" section for "Queen of the Road". I've missed this type of story, where Logan has to do some deep thinking & soul searching to understand himself & Rogue.
I love that Rogue has enough sense of self to push back and basically say 'you want me around but you don't know why, that's not enough for me anymore.'
Is this story ending on Logan starting to realize what he's losing or is there more planned?
Author's Response: Thank you for the kind words because it never hurts Logan to do some deep soul searching. Rogue will stick to her guns here and it will be up to Logan to make the next step.
There is definitely more planned but new shiny projects and life keep getting in the way for both RogueLotus and I. *heavy shipper sigh*
