Thank you! I think of Emma in more sympathetic terms, usually (she's my girl!) but Ororo doesn't, and I sort of wanted that to come out in the story. Thanks for reading!

And that was Likeadeuce who wrote that one, with her kissing Scott 'Twas an awesome fic :)

Oooh, your Emma is chilling. Kudos to Storm for keeping her temper in check! *g*

[inathunderstorm]

Thank you! I'm glad you liked it :) And yeah, Storm, nice restraint! *g*

Oh, I love this muchly -- I'm intensely curious about how the Hellfire Club would fit into movieverse and you've really done a great job with setting that up. I definitely don't see Emma having much time for Magneto in this context. And the Cohen title/epigraph makes it perfect. Plus, it fits Storm because it goes back to the "at least I've chosen a side" in X1.

She wishes Scott was here, or Jean. It’s lonely being the last one of them left, lonelier than she ever would have imagined.

This? This broke my heart. I'm sort of shamed, movie-Storm fan that I am, that I never saw it in quite these terms before -- but she and Jean and Scott and Xavier were the core of that team and now they're all gone and Ororo still has to keep the plane in the air.

Nothing but sleepless nights and a man in your bed who sees another woman’s face.”Ooooh. . . now you know my brain, I went straight to Scott/Ororo, but then I realized the timeline was wrong and you mean Logan. And that's just hotness

Yay! Thank you! I confess, I was hoping you'd like this and that you'd enjoy the story. I love writing Emma, especially when I can write someone seeing her as a total bitch and completely without sympathy. *g*

Storm/Logan is one of my favorites--it's not written nearly enough. *g*

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you liked it :)

Storm/Logan is one of my favorites--it's not written nearly enough.

Especially considering that they both slept with Scott after Jean died.

*cough*

Oh wait, that's only in my brain, isn't it? Well, the Storm part anyway. I think Scott/Logan is in a lot of brains. What? I like vaguely incestuous grief!sex stories.

Emma's awesome :) I'm glad you enjoyed reading the story!!

I just love seeing Emma translated into movieverse, and I think you presented her perfectly. I can't really explain it, but it was fantastic. The whole fic was.

And yay for implied Storm/Logan! It makes me happy.
