Tempestuous Tabgue
Rogue: Tempestuous? Not only do you make a love story that should be taken out and shot, but you gave it a name like that?!
Beck: I'm doing my best with what little resources I have.
Wanda: Yes well, fortunately it's all in your head.
Beck: I think that was an insult but the delivery was all wrong.
Tabby: I'm here! What did I miss?
Rogue: Look at the title?
Tabby: What's wrong with—(scans title)—Oh. Never mind, pressing engagement, must go.
Rogue: What?! You are not leaving me here to bear the weight of this humiliation alone.
Beck: You could always leave with her.
Rogue: And let you spread your lies with free rein? I think not.
The trouble with love is that it always shows up in unexpected places.
Dexroth: I never deemed that a problem.
Beck: Depends on who you talk to, I guess.
Lance: I always knew I was going to be in love with Kitty. It's destiny!
Irene: What?
Lance: Not you.
Irene: Brat. Calling for me and then saying you didn't. Do you think I can't see through you!?
Dexroth: ….Think I should answer that one?
Beck: Let it go, it may be better in the long run.
And unexpected it was.
They came from two seemingly different worlds, but the similarities between the two were shocking.
Rogue: That's about as shocking as Wanda losing her temper.
Wanda: Not as shocking as the odds that bulldozers will tear down your mansion will be.
Dexroth: You know, you just seem to be full of rage these days, Wanda.
Wanda: There may just be a reason for that.
Pietro (Zips in) I'm here, for all of you that wish to revel in my importance—
Wanda: Get out of here before I blast you into the wall. Permanently.
Dexroth: Hey now, you're getting better! You never used to warn people.
Both felt unloved, unneeded. Both had been on their own for quite a bit of their lives, and knew what the world was like and how to protect themselves from the pain of it all.
Tabby: Make it sound like we're going to commit suicide.
Beck: I don't mean to, it's just stereotypes that people adhere to that make it seem that way.
Rogue: Sometimes stereotypes are better than the alternative.
Dexroth: Oh come on now, don't you think you're being a little harsh?
John: Look at the glares, mate.
Remy: Remy not touchin' dis conversation.
It was these things that drew them together in the first place. And ultimately, what set their relationship apart from all others.
Scott: Except for the usual things we find wrong with this story.
Dexroth: What is with you and the criticism, hm?
Scott: Only Jean and I have the perfect relationship.
Dexroth: Wow, everything must be boring for you.
Scott: What do you mean?
Dexroth: No problems, no worries, no fun…
Scott: We have fun!
Dexroth: Un hunh. Right. I'm sure you do.
Scott; I think I need to go talk to Jean now.
Dexroth: You do that.
Beck: You do that on purpose.
Dexroth: Of course I do. How else am I going to keep myself entertained?
Rogue sat in front of the fountain in the park. Soon, it would be time to go.
Todd: Where?
Rogue: Hell.
Dexroth: Now now, you're young, you're in love! What could be so bad?
Rogue: When I die, I fully intend on taking you with me, Muse, along with some other people.
Dexroth: Uh…just out of curiosity, how many?
Rogue: I have three kill lists. Wanna see?
Dexroth; I would have expected this from Wanda…
Rogue: Where do you think I got the idea? Of course, Toad takes up an entire list.
Tabitha walked up beside her. Rogue grabbed her bag and fell in step beside the blonde mutant.
Rahne: Yeah, we all know this relationship will work out.
Beck: Were you born with all of these cynical bones in your body or were they transplanted there like the Wolverine's?
Logan: I don't take kindly about people talking about my past when I'm not there to hear about it.
Dexroth: It's happened so many times you ought to be used to it by now.
Logan: Listen buddy, if you have something you wanna say…
Beck: All right, before you two go into a fight over who knows what, I suggest you move outside.
Rahne: Yeah, you wouldn't want to rebuild the house out of Q-tips.
Beck: Yeah, and I know who's gonna help me if she doesn't keep her mouth shut.
They were gone from their responsibilities, to friends, to family nonexistent as it was. Now they would find themselves a new life, together.
Rogue: Never.
Beck: You do realize this is just a story, right?
Rogue: It's trash, and if I figure out where you keep the backups, I intend to destroy everything.
No one knew where they left to that day, and no one ever would. By everyone knew, they left on the whim of love.
Dexroth: No kiss?
Tabby: Absolutely not.
Dexroth: All right, just scuff the romantic view of the story.
Tabby: There is no romance in this story. This story never happened.
Beck: Wow. Now there's total denial.
Tabby: I have nothing to deny, because it never happened!
Wow! Another update! And it didn't take over two months!
Realm9: I have so many pairings to get through, I don't think I'll ever get to reviewer/character pairings. Sorry! Hard to escape from? That's quite imaginative. Hope you like this pairing!
the crow that caws at half pass 6: Well, I'm glad you like it.
The Son of Logan and Ororo: Oh good! I was worried you wouldn't see it because I hadn't updated in so long. But I'm glad you liked it!
Peace215: I'm trying to update on a regular basis. Yep, the dogs needed a chapter. Hope you like this chapter!
Pyro Tsunami: Hope this answered your question!
asp: No, I've been writing these so long that I couldn't stop if I really wanted too. I'll see what I can do.
