Oh no! How will Marie deal with this? I'm getting distracted by the intense story to remember to write down the bits I liked.
Erik is ruthless as always. Very glad they were able to take him down. I don't think I could stand them being captured again so soon.
Author's Response: :-D Hope you liked how Marie dealt. Yes, Erik is ruthless, and he is brilliant. He never does anything without a good reason. :-D Thanks for reviewing!
I want more of this immediately! I know that's way too bossy and demanding sounding. But really it's just pathetic. I feel extremely attached to the thread of this story and literally can't seem to contain myself when it updates. Thank you and damn you for writing such a terribly enthralling piece of work.

Author's Response: :-D I'll take bossy and demanding as long as you're still with the story! I'm so glad you're liking it. I'll take all your curses with glee, because I know that's how I get when I really love a story.
Good chapter. I'm a bit annoyed with Charles. C'mon, he's Erik/Magneto, you know him and still? I've this feeling Charles' too confident in his powers and his brain. But still, I've never liked Porf. X. I suppose Logan will be extremely angry, can't wait to read what's coming next! Thanks for sharing this story with us!
Author's Response: Yeah, Charles does seem to have a blind spot where Erik is concerned, doesn't he? My husband has started me reading the Uncanny X-Men series, and Charles is quite a jerk in those, I think it's overriding my love of Patrick Stewart and influencing my characterization of him. Thanks so much for your review!
Just wanted to drop you a line to tell you how much I love this story! I'll try to get off my lazy ass and go back and review the previous chapters. Please keep up the excellent work and forgive slackers like me who have been less than timely with the reviews. I am doing the walk of shame as we speak.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! And it would be great if you could review the previous chapters, but I definitely understand untimely reviews, especially with my big ol' computer-hogging husband lately! No shame involved at all -- thanks so much for reviewing.
hey there, great chapter, loved the stuff with magneto. you never really think about how much metal there is in the world until you have to write for him, do you? the tension was handled wonderfully, though i thought jean could have come in a little earlier- but other than that a really great chapter. looking forward to more-
hobbits away, hey!
Author's Response: So glad you liked it! Yeah, I hadn't planned on the tags being a liability when I first established that Marie was still wearing them, but it seemed convenient. And you're right, there's no good explanation for why Jean didn't make an earlier entrance, I tried to get her in there sooner but it detracted from the action to get in an, "Oh, and also, Jean stood by uncertainly." ;-) We'll just chalk it up to the fact that she had difficulty running through Central Park in her Louboutins, should we? Thanks again for reviewing!
Whoa! Talk about action packed!!!!! Amazing chapter- can't wait for next weekend! ;)
Author's Response: Glad you liked it! Thanks so much for reviewing!
ohhhhh I don't like that he put marie to sleep as well! that seems sneaky and like he is up to something! love your version of the power transfer here. I thought for sure he would have logan stab her! lol once again, great chapter, more please!!!
Author's Response: Yeah, I actually had a few different ways I planned to get Marie under control, but this actually seemed the most likely and expedient. I don't know that Xavier necessarily has anything sneaky planned, he just recognized that Marie was out-of-control and feral, and they had a disabled Logan to deal with already. Letting Marie drain or gut or whatever she had planned for Magneto would probably not be a good idea in the long run. As for Magneto, I don't think he planned to kill either of them, just toy with them a little. He knew Logan healed, but up until that point none of them knew that Marie could take on others' mutations. It made her a lot more interesting to Magneto -- I think he regrets "passing" on buying her now!
Boy that didn't go like Charles had planned at all. You have to wonder after an entire adult life dealing with Erik, Charles might learn to expect the unexpected and for things never to go right when dealing with Erik.
Logan is going to be pissed, at a number of people. :) This is going to be fun.
Author's Response: Yeah, in my mind Xavier is just a little too used to having situations under control, but when you add a telepathy-proof Magneto and relatively telepathy-proof Logan and Marie, that's way too many loose cannons. And, yeah, I don't think Logan will be too happy about how it all went down either.
What a great way to end the chapter! Loved it.
Author's Response: I'm glad you liked it! And poor Logan, he seems to be passing out right and left in this fic, doesn't he? Oh well, not only is it canon that he gets a little comatose after a Marie-encounter, but I also didn't have a good way of stopping him from gutting an unconscious Magneto if he did stay conscious. Somehow I don't think he would have too many qualms about taking out even an unconscious elderly man if he had just hurt him and his girl. ;-)
