Classic girl meets boy. Mostly movieverse, but some things have switched around a little.
R to NC-17 (eventually!)
Mostly Marie POV, but with some snippets of Logan along the way.

I’ve just read the first chapter and I love it! It has such a melancholy air and my heart is aching for poor Rogue.

“If my father shouted at me, beat me, told me I was a monster, a freak, at least I would know he knew I was there. At least he would be acknowledging me.” – great line, says so much.

This chapter was superb. I absolutely love your description of Logan in the cage (phew, has the temperature gone up in here?!) and I adore your incorporation of the X1 lines.

Also, great line: “Perfect polished skin, untouched, unmarked, dancing almost silently and always alone. I should have been more careful what I wished for.”

I'm hoping to finish the rest of this story this evening, life permitting...

Loved the kiss – very sexy yet sweet – and the impact of Rogue’s mutation on Logan and his slow collapse made me smile (I’m not sure that was your aim, but I couldn’t help it – lol!).

“She packs a punch dude, a scary, dangerous-I didn’t know you could go down like that-punch!” – love that line.

“I may have to set the record straight with her later, make sure she realises he’s a complete dick.” – hahaha!

P.S. I agree that London is over-priced and cold, but boring it most certainly is not! ;-)

“He’s a big boy; he can take care of himself, even if he does have to have a four hour nap to do it.” – hahaha – love your portrayal of Jubilee!

“You’re urm, very intimidating when you’re this close. Do you know that, has anyone ever mentioned it before?” – lol – I just bet he is, but wouldn’t you just love it? :-)

Okay, so that's me caught up, adoring it and looking forward to the shower scene...!

The aftermath of a mission changes things between Rogue and Logan.

This story is wonderfully written and I love that you stay true to character. It’s exactly how I would expect Logan and Marie to handle the situation they find themselves in.

I especially liked this line from chapter three:

“I trust you,” I hear the words breathed into my hair, and I think those are the most profound, most loving, most respectful words this man could say to anyone.

So looking forward to more…

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I try really hard to stay in character, to the point of running the dialogue through my head and hearing it in their voices, to see if it sounds real enough. Magneto\'s voice comes clearest for me, and I enjoy writing him, so I should do that more.... and also question my personal ethics while I\'m at it.

Contained in an inescapable bunker, Logan and Rogue must pass the time.

Loved it! Jubes – great! But especially loved the Scott/Logan banter. This is right up my street...More please…X

Author's Response: Jubes is one of my all time favorite characters to write. :D Thanks!

Logan and Rogue get together but are met with misunderstanding and even resentment from the team members. They run away but things go beyond wrong when they discover Rogue is pregnant and that they will have to go back to a place they hoped to never see again.

This had me hooked from the very beginning. It’s so intense!

Fantastic writing!

After becoming tangled up with Pyro, Rogue must learn to deal when he leaves for the Brotherhood. Lucky for her, Wolverine is ready to help.

This short little fic was inspired by the title of an Aerosmith song.

I loved this! My favourite line:

“And that's when I stopped watching. That's when I finally made her mine.”

And you made me laugh with your (or should I say Logan’s) ‘reverie’ challenge!

Total AU set in Wyoming. The Mutant Tolerance Act has been passed and mutants are trying to live normal lives. Marie (Rogue) is Scott Summers cousin and is enjoying her normal life. Then she gets involved with her cousin's business partner, Logan. Jubilee, Kitty, Angel, and others will make appearances.

Great start! Your writing flows, making it so easy to read.

I can’t wait for the usual suspects to be introduced… :-)

Author's Response: Thank you so much for the review! It makes writing it seem even more worthwhile. I work hard to make sure it reads well. There are 2 more chapters up for you to enjoy. I hope you do!

This chapter made me smile the whole way through. I love your portrayal of Logan and I can’t wait for Thanksgiving dinner…!

Author's Response: Thank you! I\'m having a lot of fun writing him, too. Next chapter up very soon.

Reviewer: Comic-cake Signed
Date: 08/25/2009 Title: Chapter 6: Chapter 6

This is the best chapter yet! Mainly:

1. The way you portray Jubilee. “Logan's a guest. And seriously, babe,” she turned to Marie, “it wouldn't matter if he was 500 years old. The man is hot and you know it.”

2. Caleb. Great character. “I don’t know anything about anybody,” Caleb held up his hand to ward off any further questions. “If you think there might be something to talk about, you’d better ask somebody who knows something and that definitely isn't me.”

And as I’ve already mentioned in previous reviews, I love your portrayal of Logan.

Looking forward to Twist and Shout x

Author's Response: Thank you! I may have said it before, but I love Jubilee! She is so much fun to write. She can get away with saying and doing just about anything. Original characters can be anything I want them to be so without any constraints on them they are really fun to flesh out. I\'m so glad you liked it. This chapter took me a while to figure out for some reason so I\'m really glad you felt it was the best yet. Thanks again!

A correction to my last review. This is the best chapter yet!

I absolutely love the way you describe the interaction between Logan and Marie. You capture it perfectly.

And I truly do smile every time I read your work.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I\'m glad I\'m able to make you smile. And I really hope I can keep you liking it, chapter after chapter. I\'m not even close to done yet so I\'m crossing my fingers! Thanks again!

“Marie had closed her eyes, breathing in the intoxicating male scent that was pure Logan.”

Hot, hot, hot! Loved it! X

Author's Response: I\'m finding it\'s pretty easy to write Logan/Marie lovin\'. ;) You asked in response to a review I left if I found myself changing directions/scenarios while writing a chapter and I have to say a great big YES! I write lots of different ideas and then have to decide which direction I really want to go from there before I can figure out what I want to use for a final draft. At least I know I\'ve got lots of ideas for future stories! Thanks for reviewing!!

Reviewer: Comic-cake Signed

As ever, your writing makes me smile! I love it! And my favourite lines from this chapter:

“Ow. Somebody pass the aspirin, please. Or better yet, Logan, pop the claws and just cut my head off and put me out of my misery.”

"I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. A really old dog.”

“Ooo, it must be good! If you're regretting it that much it must have been fun! What's tall, dark, and hairy like in the sack?”

And it hasn’t escaped my attention that these lines are all Jubilees… you write her amazingly.

It has already been commented on, but I definitely sense the Curly / Laury relationship from Oklahoma, which, by the way, is a huge compliment as I love that particular West End show!

Author's Response: Thank you! I guess you can see how much I love writing Jubilee (since I keep saying that) LOL! Her brand of sarcasm is just so easy for me to write. You\'ll probably think I\'m crazy but I\'ve never had the pleasure of seeing Oklahoma starring Hugh Jackman. I know, that\'s really got to be remedied! Thanks again!

As ever, I so look forward to your updates. This story always makes me smile. Don't leave it so long for the next chapter...x

Oh, I so loved the tension and romance between our two favs in this chapter. I’ve been so looking forward to this update and I knew it wouldn’t disappoint. x

Author's Response: Thank you! It\'s nice to know you look forward to the updates. Sometimes I wonder if I\'m going to get what I want out of the characters but then it all just falls into place!

Reviewer: Comic-cake Signed
Date: 10/20/2009 Title: Chapter 12: Chapter 12

That was so amazingly written I am stunned! Wow wow wow! And hot hot hot!

I agree with Logan – “Yep, it was definitely sex and not a fight that she needed.” Haha!

I’m truly sorry to hear about your hubby and so glad he’s getting better and you’re back to this. I was wondering where you were, I’ve been awaiting this update…

This was excellent! xx

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I\'m glad you liked it. This chapter seemed to almost write itself. I wasn\'t sure what was going to happen but Logan and Marie kind of just took over and that was it....the story was set. The next chapter\'s started already and hopefully will be up much much sooner than this one was!\r\n\r\nI kept telling my husband to hurry up and get better so I\'d have the time and energy to start writing again. Being what was essentially a single mom for a month gives me a whole new appreciation for women who do it all the time! Thanks for reviewing!

"He'd done what all brave men do and bellowed for his wife." Ha ha - so true. Anyway, I'll be looking out for the next chapter...Don versus Wolverine - yay! x

Author's Response: Well it\'s true of all the men I know and there proud of it

Logan has taken in a desperate and on-the-run Marie who has offered ‘anything’ in exchange for his protection. Logan wants everything. This story chronicles is what happens to them and their relationship dynamic as they learn about each other during the return ride to Xavier’s. It also explores how their rather non-traditional relationship is received by the team once they arrive at the mansion. This story was inspired by Kristine’s “Anything” http://www.wolverineandrogue.com/wrfa/viewstory.php?sid=2559. This story will make more sense if you have read "Anything" first as my opening chapter picks up right where Kristine’s story ends. Besides her story is one of the best W/R pieces ever written so you might as well go read it - NOW! :)…I’ll wait.
