I'm a Canadian, a red head (and stubborn!), a huge nerd, a former mall-rat and relapsed internet addict. I'm married and have two kids (both boys). I'm currently studying criminology which, to put it simply, is a combination of law studies, sociology and psychology.

I love reading - and it is rare to see me without a book or my laptop when I'm not with the kids. If I'm not working, reading, writing or drawing or at school - I'm at a friend's house playing D&D. Haha!

Be forewarned that my longer stories don't usually make it to completion.

Logan and Rogue are the sort of people who tend to leave most other people in the dust. It's about time Rogue looked into the only one who can keep pace.

Great story, only thing is at one part you say Rogue is 23, then at another you say they met over a decade ago. *wink*

Loosely based on the prompt 'I think I love you... // chewing gum'. Slightly AU. Set after X1, Logan's return to the mansion.

Aha, cute. With Logan in a wet T shirt contest... there's really no contest.

Author's Response: Thanks :) Yeah...he pretty much defies all competition huh?

First off, chapter 4 reminded me of this:
http://belovedshadow.deviantart.com/art/Wolverine-s-Take-on-School-38250305
=D

Second, I really thought the first two chapters were the whole story. You know, foofy fun wet Logan (yay!) but a plot? What! I'm following this to the end now~

One thing is... I didn't catch the chapter but I think it was chapter 5, the "Rogue's POV" and "Logan's POV" don't seem necessary since it is 3rd person writing. ;)

Can't wait for more =)

Author's Response: Bwahahahah that link is just GENIUS! I loves. *grin* You weren\'t the only one who thought the first two chapters were it...but then it sort of grew...\r\n\r\nHee, yeah probably not necessary...I was just covering all bases...like the obsessive compulsive I am :)\r\n\r\nThanks :)

Grief is hard to deal with, and something that Logan just can't do. Marie would be there for him, but she's got someone in her head that just won't leave them alone.

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.

I think even ending it here is great. =) Sometimes stories don't need to be long. Short & sweet, right?

I definitely know the eyebrow thing. He does it so damn good!

Author's Response: yup i\'m a fan of short and sweet. but i figured i\'d just keep writing these as long as i have ideas, so we\'ll see how long it\'sll end up being i guess =)\r\n*dreaming of hugh and the eyebrow* *happy sigh*

I liked it. The WRFA crashed after I finished the first chapter so I was upset all night that I wouldn't get to know what the heck was going on.
The story definitely has potentials, but like you said - you wrote it to get something out. Maybe someday you can go back and re-write... work on things a bit more. I'd love to see how it turns out. =D

Logan is tired of his life but a chance meeting with a young Rogue may be his salvation...

I don't know if you need to mark the lines with a * though. They're a little distracting.

He is taking one step closer into accepting that he cares for me deeply and that is a rare thing for a Wolverine to do. But I know as the next words fill my mind I won’t be able to stop them.

“You love me.”

Simple. No question. No doubt. Just pure truth.

Oooohhhkayyy ... The second half of my message disappeared. I added that You don't need to make it any longer, because it is perfect the way it is. =)

Author's Response: Thank you! For both reviews lol. Yeah see I was debating with myself whether I should make a second part but every time I say it might be good this logical part of brain says \'you idiot it ended perfectly don\'t ruin it by adding more!\' So I\'ve decided leaving it as is and pursuing other plot bunnies. But, they seem to not like me much right now though... *grumbles*

lol. I can imagine the flip flops her stomach would be doing for the rest of the month.

And how the heck did you do the indents?! I've been trying to figure that out...

Author's Response: It depends: I use Microsoft Word to write, so I just hit \"Tab\" like you normally would (you know, like when you use your PC to write something other than WxR love scenes :)). But the key is that when I\'m finished, I save it as a Web Document (it will have .html at the end of the file name) and I upload it to the site as such. If you are copying and pasting your story into the big box they provide there might be some sort of code that would indent, but I don\'t know what that would be.\r\nThanks for the review!

What the heck can I say that everyone else has probably already said?
Hot! You have guts, girl. I could never bring myself to write this stuff.
Don't worry yourself with your word count. A story reads better when you get drawn in - not when it feels like you rushed to tie it up at the end. (Not that yours feels like it did, but sometimes you can tell.)

I wonder though. If Logan let Marie absorb a bit of him here and there, maybe she would age a little slower. ;)

Author's Response: lol thanks and you could tell me that you\'ve kidnapped hugh jackman and are willing to share - no one has yet said that to me ... though i have been sent milk chocolate covered logan via mail ... yum. and maybe not guts as much as what the heck, not like they know how to find me. lol. yeh, it\'s just that after the 1st one the second one seemed really small but there was literally nothing i could think of putting in there, and i was worried that you guys might point that out so thanks for clearing that up.\r\n\r\ni based my marie a lot on movie marie - even when she absorbed pyro she didn\'t really seem to be able to keep his powers for long. when she absorbed logan the second time it was to the point of near death and she does show characteristics of his but that faded before he woke up. she even stays herself and shows no visible signs of logans mutation other then healing the cuts when she touches him the 1st time - no claws, etc. \r\n\r\nso my marie can\'t keep the powers long either. they just drain out of her. sure he heals the small cuts and bruises she has, and some not even the whole way, but she can\'t keep it for long. and something like affecting her age would be too big to do without killing him, since its a constant thing.\r\n\r\nand plus that would be the easy way out wouldn\'t it lol, never been the fan of the easy way - unfortunatly.\r\n\r\nthanks for your great review :)

‘Thing is kid…I’ve figured you out,’ he moves forward a little, even as she stares up at him, wide-eyed and shrinking back into the wall, 'You don’t wanna die, but you’re jus’ too scared of living.’

Inspired by John Keats. Logan develops new feelings for Rogue. Surrounded by teammates who think it's wrong and a world that wants them dead, the two meet obstacles that may be too much for them to handle.

He blanched, reached out to twist her chin around to face him. “What did you do?” he rushed out. Rogue quivered, shut her eyes. Shut him out. “Marie!” he shook her. “Marie what did you do?”

I-
Bu-

*heartbreak*

As a story, it's fantastic. I love the idea of them bringing each other down, being the cause of their problems. (I'm terrible!)Because it's more realistic. Marriages, in the real world, don't fail because of super villains and all that - they end because of our own problems.

On the other hand - grr! I cannot believe that Marie would be so... (can't think of the word)... to think that it would be right to kill their baby. Why? There were other options.

Don't get me wrong - I love your story. You did an excellent job, I read through the entire thing understanding their thoughts and emotions. I'll admit that the abortion was the way to go, that it was the best way to lead the story.
Doesn't stop me from being mad at her, though.

Excellent job.

Author's Response: lol thanks :)\r\n\r\nyeah, i decided to save you all from my other version of the story, where magneto breaks out of jail with the sole plan to break up logan\'s relationship and then using his pain to power another machine that will turn everybody blue. smarties blue. lol. nah, i\'m just not very good with the action and more into realism, it just didn\'t occur to me ... Although ... maybe i should post that magneto revenge of the smurfs plan up? And thanks for that wonderful line about how marriages fail - that was perfect.\r\n\r\nreally? what options did you see? Ive been asking everyone if they saw a way out that i had missed. if you\'re thinking adoption then i think it would have been too big of a temptation for them. they want this baby. but they shouldn\'t have it. once she was born nothing on earth would have made them give her up - it\'s harder when you learn to love \'em after all. \r\n\r\ndid you feel more sorry for logan?\r\n\r\nand thanks again. :)

This is an AU about a sweetly clutzy Marie and a less traditional meeting with Logan that was begun by the great jj blazer and then opened up for completion. JJ was kind enough to approve of my completion of her fantastic story and so...here it is.
