The Wolverine & Rogue Fanfiction Archive
Barely Legal Since 2000
arrgh. So sad! You've portrayed his compulsion so well here, him hating the fact of being there at all, but willing to do it for that tiniest glimpse of Rogue ... and the idea that it would be only touch that brings her back is such an interesting one. This is perfect as a oneshot, but if you did want to extend it, the scenes prior to this, where the others took her over and he lost her, would be interesting to read (if heartbreaking ...). Great job! Told you you had him :D
Author's Response: Thank you! I wasn\'t sure how I was going to be able to handle the angst of this song, so I\'m glad it came through ok. I would love to revisit this in the future, so I\'ll see if the opportunity presents itself.
I've just sent you a long email, but for posterity ... I had a little tear when I saw this was back up in the archive. Nearly cried when I couldn't find it for someone last time I looked and realised your stories were gone. SO FREAKING HAPPY TO HAVE YOU BACK.
Author's Response: Aww, thanks. :) I am crazy excited to be back. My muses are on fire and I have a ton of old stuff to repost and a ton of new stuff to post as well. Everyone\'s been so lovely and I just wanted to say thanks! It means a lot! I\'m a huge fan of yours. ::fangirl squee:: ;)
Hey, I've finished Sleeping Dogs, that means I can write the odd piece here and there ;) I've actually written a few of these before for my other OTP, Weevil and Veronica; hadn't really thought of trying them for Logan and Marie ...
Mama used to say that givin' someone a haircut is a very intimate thing...
So I just left a LONG comment over at your LJ then got defeated by the spam bot I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THOSE THINGS AT ALL. But anyway ... i think what I said was along the lines of a) I love the leisurely pace of this and the light, fluffy feel that shows Rogue interacting with her friends (the whiskey heist was superb), and I really felt for her with the scene in the woods with Logan where she KNOWS that she doesn't want to be just his friend, knows its not right, but feel she loves him so much she can't refuse him that, not when he was trying so hard to share his feelings. And the scene in the bathtub is just perfect because it shows that he still thinks of her as essentially a shy teenager, not expecting her to get up and help herself, but she's had enough of being put in his boxes. Lovely dialogue, and just the sort of dynamic between them that I adore. Well done!

*Does happy dance* I am honored to have a review from JaqofSpades!!!! Squee!
\r\nOh, man, I hate when that happens--writing a long comment, only to have it obliterated, then trying to remember what you wrote. I learned my lesson the hard way; I copy the message periodically and then right before i submit in case something happens, then I can paste it if I have to.
\r\nThank you so much for your detailed comment! It\'s so great to hear that kind of feedback and to know that what I\'m trying to convey is coming through through in my writing. You have made me a very happy fangirl!!!
