Yeah, while there are some differences between my xmen universe (ie... Scott's blindness), I wrote down the Emma's Genosha flashback dialogue verbatim and just added everything else from the scene as close to possible. IMO the X-tinction bit was far too short for such a storyline. 16 million deaths and only 3 pages of 3 comics really dealt with it. Supposedly there are some excalibur comics that deal with the aftermath a bit.

Oops sorry for babbling :) I'm living proof that women of any generation can be comic geeks.

Pretty intense story so far. Good cliffhanger for this chapter though. My compliments on the details and the easy to read multiple level dialogue with thought and flashbacks and whatnot. Thanks.

Thanks. I worried about the dialogue/flashback issues, so I'm glad the differences made the story still readable.

Awesome! I'm looking forward to where this is going. I like your original set up particularly. Good luck! I hope there's more soon!

Such a nice compliment from one of my favorite X-Men authors :) TY! And next friday is when I'll be posting part 4.

Awesome. I think Emma's feelings on Genosha (and returning to it) were really well conveyed. And, her sorta-friendship with Jean is kinda sweet.

Looking forward to the next chapter :)
