Threnody, you have the makings of a wonderful beta. Once again, I compliment you on your observation and I would like to clarify, if I may. You pointed out that Rogue trying to "seduce" Wolverine didn't make much sense in the aftermath of what happened. What I was trying to get across in that scene was that when Wolverine suppressed Sabretooth in Rogue's mind, he inadvertently integrated Sabretooth's mind into Rogue's. That's why Rogue was so assertive after she woke up (hitting Jean, coming on to Wolverine). You'll notice that Wolverine even said: "Damn, darlin' looks like you took on more of Sabretooth's characteristics than I thought." As soon as he said that, Rogue snapped out of it and left the room in a hurry. I also tried to make it obvious that Rogue was getting a little carried away with Sabretooth's enhanced senses. That's important because I've been saying throughout Stealing Rogue and Beast in Rogue that Mystique taught Rogue early how to control the powers of those she absorbs. The fact the Sabretooth's powers overwhelmed her, even slightly, is just one more sign of how traumatic and severe her experience with him was.
Once again, Threnody, you're keeping me on my feet. I'm glad you point these things out, it gives me a chance to explain them, not just for you, but for other readers as well. Keep up the eagle eye.
Tara, Coon2010, thanks for the compliment on our stories, Kazy and I are flattered. Glad you like Jean as a bitch. Personally, I've never liked Jean, but I try not to overdue the bitchiness for those who do. Then again, the people that read my stories are usually Rogue fans first, so they don't mind. Tara, if I did put other characters in the story, who do you think would be a good choice?
Rogue, Tanashe, Oops, Fuschia, Blacknight, Lucky439, Arythiel, Swifty1125, MoonSpiker, LaLa, Pinky, Death to Reality, Kali, Gothic Rose, thanks for the compliment, I'll try to update frequently.
Moon*Child, Lauren, thanks for the compliment on the other stories, glad you enjoy them. Don't worry, Jean's going to get more down to earth real soon. As for Nightcrawler and Storm, we'll see if we can work them in. Rogue did mention she had a brother, so Nightcrawler had a chance for an appearence, we'll just have to see what happens. As for Gambit, he really hates Wolverine, but who knows what he thinks of Rogue . . .
