I almost did not click on this fic when I saw the word count but boy am I glad I did.

This story was amazing and I too would love a sequel

Author's Response: I almost didn\'t post it because I hate short fics, but I felt like I should give it a chance. I am so glad you gave it one, as well! Thank you...

Now COMPLETE!

Yes, another AU. :-D Logan is on a mission to contact a powerful mutant and convince her to join the X-Men. Things go awry, of course. ;-) Here's an excerpt: “You’ve been shot before,” she said, and he could practically see her mind piecing it together. “And you don’t want to go to the authorities.” He saw that icy calmness creep back into her demeanor as her scent changed sharply. She was no longer afraid for him, now she was afraid of him. “Who do you work for? Did he send you to find me?”

Holy cow!
I normally avoid these types of AU stories as they usually feature an almost too tough Marie but I am so glad I clicked on this one because it is amazing.

You balance Maries independence with the perfect amount of insecurity.

I laughed so hard at the "I'm....Canadian" line and the "they got you too" was heartwrenching as well as the last line of this chapter.

Can't wait for more!

Author's Response: I\'m glad you\'re liking it! And that you\'re liking the balance of toughness and vulnerability for Marie. She is actually coming across a little more neurotic than I had expected, so it\'s good to see that you are not finding her to be annoyingly weak. She will show a little more strength later, of course. :-)

Marie finds out about a secret....

Before she could reach that fight bar in Canada, Rogue was taken in and raised by Mystique. Years later, she and Wolverine meet for the first time as fellow X-Men. Fate draws them together after a very unusual attack leaves Wolverine in a unique position to help. AU with movie/comicverse elements.

Im really interested to see where this goes.

Author's Response: Thanks :). I\'m glad you enjoyed.

Sometimes love is the unrequited kind. Rogue is growing up. Logan is in love with Jean. And nothing is simple.

Dont know if its the stupid pregnancy hormones or your just that damn good but parts of this had me tearing up.

Im leaning towards it being due to your superb writing skills.

Now COMPLETE! Logan goes undercover to investigate Sebastian Shaw after Jean disappears. He finds Rogue there, but what is her connection to Shaw, and can the two of them form an unlikely alliance? Of course they can, it's me! Pure Rogan, don't worry, Jean is just a plot device. ;-)

My usual, which means AU, with drama, action, angst, hot Rogan sex, and a happy ending. And I promise never to leave a story unfinished.

Holy crap woman, you are a freaking master mind...Im loving where this is going, its been a while since I have read a good,involved story line.

Reviewer: DarkDragonfly Signed star star star star star
Date: 08/01/2011 Title: Chapter 1: The Deal

My only complaint, as an equestrian is the over use of stallions in stories...but thats beside the point and just me being anal...

Loved it, and Im hoping you will once again not be able to keep us waiting :)

Author's Response: Ha...I almost put in a disclaimer that I know bugger-all about horseback riding except what I\'ve picked up from Dick Francis novels, and of course they don\'t tend to \"fix\" racehorses. Would it be more likely to be a gelding, then, or would she be riding the mare? I\'m happy to change it. Please also let me know if I got any of the other lingo wrong. I Googled for a long time trying to figure out if there was a different word for those little half-doors on the stalls. ;-)

You have no idea how giddy I got when I saw this update, and you did not disappoint!

I loved it, and I feel horrible about nitpicking the horse thing lol.

Author's Response: Argh, don\'t feel guilty about nitpicking, I\'ve been waiting anxiously for your answer so I can correct it! Seriously, should it be mare or gelding? *Please* let me know! Thanks for the review. So glad I made you giddy. ;-)

Crap, sorry hun I did not see your response to my first review.

Usually horses are only kept stallions in the event that they are being shown or are of breeding quality. So its more likely to be a mare or gelding...in a responsible situation at least lol.

Author's Response: Thanks for the correction! I did have the thought that Shaw might be a little too tied to his ideas of masculinity to have his stallions gelded, but I think you\'re right. I want him to be pretty even-tempered. Thanks so much for your advice!

Damn it!!

It really sucks that your so good at building up a cliff-hanger.

Author's Response: Thanks! And thanks so much for reviewing!

Marie focused on dulling the pull of her skin, dampening her body’s desire to consume anything it came in contact with. That was the thing she hated about her mutation. Take, take, take. It felt selfish. She wished she had a mutation that was more suited to helping than hurting. Like if she could give away her own life force with a touch, rather than just steal others’.

Post-X3. A little angst and a lot fluff. Nothing especially original or well-written here, to be honest, but hopefully a fun little read.

Seriously though? Amazing!

Author's Response: LOL. Thanks, I\'m glad you enjoyed reading. Maybe I could tack on an NC-17 sequel . . . *slaps self* No, bad, must go back to work on Feral!

Did you ever wish you could have a mutant around to help you do all those silly things that you just don't have time for? Well, here's your chance.

Im in love with this, and so glad to see it updated...now..maybe a measure for measure update? pretty please with Logan on top?

Author's Response: How can anyone resist a Logan on top? I\'m doing my damnedest to get Measure for Measure back on track in my brain and on paper...er, computer. Mutant for Hire is way easier to write so I had to start with this when I got back in the saddle. I\'m just so glad you haven\'t given up on me and are still reading! Thanks so much for reviewing. I love every single one I get.

Marie is at a lab. Logan ends up there too. What will happen when their world collide?

A series of 100 short scenes that tell their story. Back to Back POV.

Just letting you know that some people are still compulsively reading and re-reading this amazing work of fiction in hopes that one day you will update :)

I love this story.

Author's Response: I keep forgetting about it. Maybe I\'ll dive back in a little bit... Thanks for the reiew, and the nudge!\r\n

Logan didn't want to let her get away, but instead build on the bond they shared. Last time he and Marie had friendship before a physical relationship. This time he would need to work it backwards.

That chapter was way too short.

Not fair!

Author's Response: *nods* I know, hopefully I will have the next chapter up next week.

NOW COMPLETE! Seven years after Liberty Island, Logan, Marie, and others are on a mission to investigate rumors of a lab experimenting on mutants. After their jet is shot out of the sky, they're taken as prisoners where they learn firsthand of a new technology that has the potential to turn the tide of the war that's been brewing.

This sucked me in so fast, wonderfully and intensely written.

I'm excited to see where this goes!

This is such a fantastic story.

I have refrained from tapping my foot as being a fellow creative (photography, not literature) I know pressure never helps bit I am aching for more!!

Author's Response: I promise, more is on the way soon! Had a week of being sick, a week of no fun at work, and a week of not knowing how to get the next part out. Hang in there, and thanks for reading! :)

Logan has as good and stable a life as someone like him could ask for, and far better than he deserves. He's lived in the mansion for five years and is coming around to the idea of calling himself an X-man.

But there are blurry spots in his memory, more recent than those related to his adamantium claws. He keeps having dreams about a girl nobody else at the school remembers. Sometimes he gets the feeling that she's in danger; sometimes it's the feeling that they all might be.
