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.

'And then I'll have to kill him too. Which I'd rather not, because, y'know, there'd be paperwork, and deep down he's a good kid. Very deep down... very *very*... actually scratch that. He's a dick.'

why is there pain from laughing at that little statement? after all, he's just telling the truth - Bobby is a dick! :)

Author's Response: *lol* you gotta love logan when he tries to do the right thing... then fails *g*

It's Rogue's turn on that comfy couch

'Sit. The fuck. Back. Down.

...Bub.'

Just brilliant! I couldn't help it, I was feeling sorry for the therapist at this point!

and then the whole line that included 'but the rippin of my underwear was all down to him.' had me in hysterics. also loved that she told Bobby as soon as she got home, well almost!

Marie needed a ride.

'the writing quickly thing in my case usually inversely effects the standard of the fic'

Nope, no way, not at all - still great, still fun and still had me laughing all the way through, feel free to write loads more quick fics!

Rogue gets a new hobby. Logan watching... with unforeseen consequences.

now, there has been other fics that i've told you off for certain visuals I don't need in my head - this one I think I'll keep! yep, definately, the Wolverine stripping can stay and stay and stay and [repeats unlimited ;)]

Author's Response: *lol* yeah. One of the better Logan images I thing *g*

so I was doing ok to begin with, even though there may have been [was] a stupid grin on my face..........

but then you had Logan come out 'shimmying' in a bikini, and I lost it! If you hadn't done so well with the describing of this little scene I wouldn't have had the perfect pictures rolling around in my head and therefore wouldn't have been giggling lke an idiot!

Great fun well done x

Author's Response: Thank you :oD\r\nAnd I just wanted to say thanks for all the reviews I found in my inbox this morning. Made my day *g*\r\n...And you so know that Logan would still look good while shimmying in a bikini *g*

It isn't about pretty flowers or holding hands.

I agree with ct xfan this is one scenario that is easy to imagine could happen and felt more 'real' to read than some of the more 'fluffy' ones [not that we don't all love the fluffy too though!]

Loved it well done x

I love fics where there is this role reversal from the norm where its Logan who *needs* and Rogue that *saves*. A lot of writers seem to struggle with it though.

You didn't!

Beautifully done, very emotional, very touching and very powerful.

Well done x

"We all waited for the detonation of the small nuclear device from Canada" brilliant line!!! so was the use of the word "fisticuffs" the characterization was spot on for me. Wonderful writing throughout - damn good job well done x
