I’m English, married with 2 pretty much grown up kids, am still 18 in mind if not in body so there’s a bit of a conflict there!


Never read the comics but from the first time I saw the films something about these two characters got to me like no others, so a long time ago I found my way here [lurked in the shadows for a few years before joining] and have stayed ever since. Loved it then and love it still and with new great authors joining all the time, can’t see me going anywhere any time soon!

I mentioned about new great authors joining all the time – well someone has to balance things up - I’m definitely not in the great author category, more in the ‘I had a go’ one, but if there wasn’t any of the not so great fics we wouldn’t appreciate the good ones so much! So I am in fact helping the appreciation of the great authors if nothing else!

Am longing for someone to write a fic where I actually like Jean, I'm only interested in L/M but If Joanne can get me hooked on stories that contain Logan and Beast there must be someone that can get me over my irrational hatred of a certain red headed fictional character!

So many fics never get completed, quite a few take years! I would rather wait until the finished box is checked. For these and a lot of other reasons I hate chapter reading, although I have been persuaded lately to give it a go and I seem to do ok as long as a fic is updated regularly but I still tend to keep that for the few I trust to do that. If it takes months between updates with the amount I read I would have to start over each time to catch up! Taking that into account reviews from me are usually only one per fic no matter its length but if I have enjoyed something I do like to let people know my thoughts.

Logan's realization of the truth at the end that he was never the other man was just the perfect ending to this fic. well done x

Wolverine's been waiting. He's got a plan. All he has to do is make it work first.

this has to be one of my fav interpretations of Logan and a fav story too. well done x

In this alternate-reality version of the movie, Logan fights Sabertooth without X-men intervention. He and Marie start building a life together. But in time they do come into contact with X-men.

love the fact that he doesn't understand why he cares but doesn't care that he doesn't understand! Great story much better than the 'real' one well done x

But knowing afterwards, after we’re done bleeding and after we’re done dying, there is someone who doesn’t want that from you. Someone who understands having your body used.

ah you gotta love protective Logan and his struggle for 'self control' - well I think he might find himself tested to the limit before he decides lack of self control is not always the enemy!

I really enjoyed this well done x

I read these in totally the wrong order (thought they made it a little too quick!) but this is listed as the sequel to lessons at midnight and so is Latenight Confessions. Have now rectified my reading order - great little series well done x

dear god you've done it again - deep and powerful, dark and beautiful.

'do you know, i would have died?'
the 'for you' not required and left unsaid, it's a simple sentence many have used to show a depth to love but from there you took it to another level! and the ending, again you nailed it.

Another fav for me :)

Not content with killing us and caging us like beasts they turn us into nothing but a monetary asset, profitable and meaningless...

Loved your take on both Rogue and Logan, their interactions, conversations and thoughts on each other a rollercoaster of every emotion! Loved the pace as well as the story itself. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this fic - great job well done x

Author's Response: Thank you so much! This version of Rogue and Wolverine connected the most with me out of any that I\'ve written, so this is a very special story to me. Which means I\'m so glad your liked it!

great job well done x
