Oh, this is perfect! I love this peek inside an ordinary week for Scott, that turns out to be quite extraordinary. It's so beautifully constructed, too - all these little vignettes contributing to the overall story.
...and there wouldn’t be graffiti saying “X-Men suck ass” courtesy of Quicksilver.
Hee - Pietro, you asshole! It makes so much sense! I love these little touches like putting Pietro into the Brotherhood - they flesh out the world around Scott so beautifully, gives me such a clear picture of Scott doing his job.
And it was a battle he lost the moment her lips touched his neck.
Oh, that's lovely. *sighs* It's wonderful to see them so happy, and Scott so helpless to resist her.
“Look, Commander Tightass! If you hadn’t opened your dumb-fuck mouth, Chuck wouldn’t have locked us in here!”
*giggles* I love your Logan so much! I hope you've managed to stop channeling your inner Logan now. He's pretty damn antisocial.
But no, he was Cyclops and he was magic
It's true! He really is magic. And not just because he can spar verbally with Logan, and handle John blowing up his own porn, but because he would have done everything he could for that poor kid who kills with his touch.
Thank you so much for this story - it was a delight to read.
I cannot put into words how glad I am that you liked it. Honestly. I was really worried that this wouldn't work within your request, and that writing it while I was under heavy pain meds would mess it up.
I'm so, so, so glad you like it. :)
I love seeing Scott and Jean happy too. Makes me warm on the inside (but not fuzzy. I've never understood feeling "warm and fuzzy" on the inside. Reminds me of roadkill). I'm glad you share a love for fearless and his first lady.
All credit for my Logan should go to Ridesandruns whose Logan inspired mine to go to the next level.
And hee! I'm so glad someone caught that! The "Cyclops was Magic" line. It's something I say all the time, and my betas thought it was funny that I put it in there, but they were afraid no one else would like it. So glad you did.
Thanks for the great prompt. It inspired a story that I had a lot of fun writing. :D
