I finally catched up on this series. I got very excited by the plot line of this story. It has so much potential and many possible outcomes.

Yet, I grew confused when I finally noticed that this series are post X3. It seemed to me that this was a canon, where the characterisations would fit prefectly. As it is, I can see an emotional gap in the actions of the characters. There's sorrow, hurt, rage, trauma missing.

As a whole this was a exciting reading and applaud your plot line.

Author's Response: SOmeone else commented on the lack of traumatic emotion in the wake of the entire Phoenix saga. I tried to comment on that yesterday, but the archive froze on me. argh? I played on the sense of survival and progress that I thought the closing scenes of X3 brought forth, particularly the long shot of Logan standing on the terrace, basking in the sun of a new day as Storm greeted children returning for a new school year. And, the rest of the story is going to get rather intense and dark, and I specifically did NOT want it bogged down by a load of Jean angst. I abhor heavy, dark stories that go on and on and depress the reader, so the focus of this story lies in other directions.

Uhoh I see drama coming...
