you're brilliant. it makes me want to weep for Sinister.

Awww, thanks! Yes, it's a really sad story, but he really was a horrible ass to her. There's this panel in Colossus: Bloodline, where Piotr asks Essex, "Haven't you ever cared for anyone in your whole life?" and the panel afterwards is Sinister, a close up on his face, staring off in a way that suggest he's thinking of someone. It's totally her. It makes me go all gooey when I read it (I have problems).

That panel is also my cellphone wallpaper. ::G::

Thank you!
