That's my girl. This is so very awesome. I love the details and all the character dynamics, and that's a hell of a last line.

The only downside is that my head kind of clunks the desk at the realization that there's a freaking active JEAN/MAGNETO community, and not a JEAN/SCOTT community. And that I would rather boggle about that than start one, with my lousy community-maintaining record.

::beams:: I am glad you liked it!! I love writing Jean, and esp. in a slightly creepy fashion with Magneto. But you probably knew that one already :)

And you know, just start one, advertise it, and let it be! It'll be fine if you just pimp it out and get people to join.

Oh, good God. This was gorgeous... aching and tender and very, very Erik at moments. The post-accident one stabbed me straight through the heart, and I loved Jean and Scott's interactions. *memorifies*

Mr. Lensherr tips his hat to you.

[inathunderstorm]

Oh, thank you, dear! I am glad you enjoyed!

I remember talking to Ion_Bond once about Charles being in a car accident, and it being ironic as Magneto controls metal. The idea of that has always appealed to me :)

I tip my hat back and offer eternal devotion to Magneto. If he would only just realize babbling was a mutant power. IT IS. ::sighs::

:-) Thank you!!

These two are rather wonderfully creepy. And lovable. And lovably creepy.

Erik is so sad somehow, and weary, and Jean is the little girl who grew up to eat universes.

They boggle my mind but I am quite thankful to them for doing it, and to you for writing it.

Seriously, they're kind of...angsty and emo. But I love them. ::snuggles::

And, you know. Rogue is obviously...um, having a moment with Sabretooth (shut up, okay? I just wrote that one today, too, because...it just WORKS in Adjectiveless. IT JUST DOES. ::hides again::)

Anyway, thank you!! ::mwah:: I am very glad you enjoyed the drabbles and thank you for the loverly comment!

You just made me do this: O_O for real.

*attempts in vain to de-widen eyes*

[inathunderstorm]

Okay but seriously! It kind of works! It's angsty emo-ness. There's no real sex or anything, but there's some....well. I'll just post it later.

But awesome that you did O_O!!
