Sweet. I love this. I <3 Logan/Rogue.
And you're right... it's a pretty good summary for an unseen story!

[groovekittie]

Eee! Thank you! I was wondering whether you'd like it! :P

[goodisrelative]

You are such a dork at times, but we still love you. :-)

[groovekittie]

I KNOW! Hee!

Ooooooh nice!

I'm a big Rogue/Logan fan, so I love that he was the one that finally got her to admit what was going on.

And I also think it made sense that she would try to hide it.

[groovekittie]

Thank you! *glee!*

YAY! Loved the finished product. Reading it again, I picked up on some of your imagery that had passed me by before. I especially loved the image of her staring outside and noticing her image blending into the school. It's very fitting, almost symbolic of where she is.

Eeee! Thank you! It wouldn't have been any good without your help so thanks!

hihi, sorry for the time it took to review, but I've been dying for the chance to read this!

Sometimes she felt the pull, like a phantom limb. It would come at the most inopportune times, such as a meeting with distraught parents while shaking their hands, or when offering comfort to a new Mutant still finding their footing in this brave new world they had discovered. The worst, though, was when she lay in bed with Bobby, their bare skin in constant contact. It was those nights where she'd wake up, drenched in sweat, a terrified scream caught in her throat.
<-this is an amazing paragraph. You can totally feel her dismay and terror as her powers come back, but slowly. *heartbreak*

all in all, this was very well written and a lovely you read and i am so happy. hee! thank you so much!

Yaaaaay! I'm so glad you liked it! I was a bit worried it wouldn't be something you'd like. :)
