Okay, first I'd like to thank you for chapter 24. The Jamie/Rahne stuff was great, and I've been having a pretty bad day, so thank you fort (It (I know that it wasn't wrtten for my bad day, but I can still thank ya for it, right?) Secondly, I've never liked Lance. Or, at least, I didn't before I found your stories. Your stories are the only stories where I do like him. And chapter 25 was awesome. And like Eddie Izzard says, not "awesome" as in hotdogs, but "awesome" as in a description of the universe. Being someone who grew up as an abused child, who also watched my mother be abused, Lance's story touched me in a way that most other writers only dream about when they think about "touching" their readers. The feeling of being abused as a child can most times be indescribable. You can never truly express to someone else the feeling of living in constant fear of an abusive, or even murderous, parent or older sibling. Lance's story, however, comes closer than I've read in other stories. Lance's feelings on his abuse are so raw,true, and realistic. I had to read the chapter over a couple of times because of how real it felt. I knew that feeling. The feeling of how badly you just want that person gone, and how badly you want to protect your loved ones. And how scared a child can be, for their lives, and the life of their mother. I've never seen that captured in the realm of fan fiction. Ever. So once again, I bow to you, my Goddess. You truly are an incredibly gifted writer, and I can't thank you enough for not only sharing your talent with us, but for treating your stories with such a real, honest, endearing, and mature manner.

Eagerly awaiting your next chapter,
Parker

Happy New Year! Hope Samhain was good to you (even though technically, for some, it's still going on today (Nov 1). Now, on to the review.

Wow. I can't wait to find out what's happening. Something that I think that you've captured very well is the feeling of fear that Kitty has over not being able to control her pha. I. It's also really cool that the one person that everyone relies on to solve problems like this can't even really remember who he is. As always, it's superbly written, and I cant wait until the next chapter.

Later,
Parker

Again with the wonderfulness.

Lemme guess, you write these in advance and then
let us poor readers suffer thru one update at a time,
just 'cause you can. An exercise in power, perhaps?

Anyways, *bows to Nemain* please more? Please, oh wonderful Nemain?

As always, with abject admiration to the story creator,

On the plus side, they got to finish. On the minus side, you sent my poor elf off naked somewhere and he hasn't managed to get back yet. You're EVIL. ^_~ Poor wittle elf. Oh, this is just nasty, someone needs to go put the hurt on Magneto, the lousy b*****d!

Ack. I haven't been here for a while. Real life and all. You put up loads in my absense. Yikes, Magneto's a dangerous, devious bastard, ain't he? Poor Kitty and Kurt. Is he gonna pop up somewhere strange every time he has a stray thought? And just how long will it take her to get back upstairs if she's going to be phased almost all the time?

ok . . . i'm going out on a limb here, because whenever i review someone, them generally stop updating - i'll be very upset if you stop, becuase i'm absurdly hooked on your stories. i just discovered them 3 days ago & have finally reached your last posted chapter. wow the word prolific comes to mind, finaly by an almost outpaced & insistant demand for more. i've got to reread them all now, to take my time with them, an encellent job, btw - we need more intelligent, well-written, emotional-laden and creative Kurtty stories

Another greatpterpter. I don't know how you do it. I just hope that you continue to do so. You never really seem to have a problem moving the plot in each chapter, and it boggles my mind that you can do so and still have upwards of 50 chapters. Like I said, I won't question it as long as it continues. Okay, enough gushing. Can't wait for your next post, and here's to hoping Jamie and Rahne are in there...
