I...I...SCOTT'S CLONE???

This is brilliant. I don't know anything about what's going to happen in the film beyond what's depicted in the trailers, but I love this! Etienne was adorable and it's interesting that the school is headed by Forge now. (For some strange reason, I always thought Storm would carry out Xavier's dream. Hm.) I also love the way you portrayed Sabertooth -- his overall nastiness just shines through.

The end left me hanging, I want to read more stories in this universe! And Remy raising wee!Scott is part of my personal fanon for the X-movieverse now, because of you. :D

Strange things happen to my brain after watching a trailer 11 times. ;) So glad you enjoyed it. This was the fic that ATE my BRAIN in my dreams even.

Forge is the head of the high school classes. My movieverse!fanon has Ororo as headmaster of the school but her real speciality is social work not teaching so she has two head professors-- one for high school and one for middle/elementary school.

Just curious: Did you guess at any point before the last section that Etieene was Scott's clone? If so, when?

I didn't expect Etienne being Scott's clone at any point AT ALL. But I'm obtuse like that. :D

P.S.

I was rereading the fic when I got to the part where Remy brandishes a diskette when I realized that the 'height of technology' in 1996 was the floppy disk and Windows 95 and noisy external modems and gif sparklies on the Net. Hee. :D
