I recognized your name from the house_cameron and daniel_betty communities. *waves*

Not many people write companion pieces to the third movie. I think they get pissed off that Rogue gave up her powers, but I believe you did an excellent job explaining her motives. I like how you stuck with canon but also managed to slant it Rogue/Wolverine. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you! First, I miss Ugly Betty so much and still hold out hope for a movie, even though I think it might be a longshot at this point. And I miss when House was still good and when House and Cameron had those deep scenes where there was so much more to what they were saying than solely their words. *sigh* but I'm rambling.

I was very disappointed with the way they ended things in the third movie in general (taking away Mystique's power is a NO for me,) but I wanted to put some kind of positive spin on it and show how hard it must have been for Rogue to deal with these powers and still try to have normal relationships. I couldn't even imagine the loneliness. Thanks for the review!

I usually don't like X3 fics, but I really liked this one. Thanks for writing this.

They are leaving the same way they started: together. Wish the movie ended the same way.

I completely agree. I just felt like everything was in pieces by the end and I wanted something solid to leave on. Thanks for reviewing!

Lovely little slice of life - I generally hate X3 stuff (can't even force myself to rewatch the film) but just today began thinking about it, thinking where it might be possible for me to take it ... and then I see this! You might have just inspired me to put aside my behemoth and see if I can do it as well as you have. And if this isn't up to your usual standard I'll await your next W/R with bated breath!

Oh gosh wow! Thank you so much for reviewing! I was left utterly confused at the end of X3, which gave me the idea for this so at least I could reconcile my Rogue grief. This is my first time writing for Wolverine/Rogue, but I just took to them so much I decided to try it out. Hopefully, more ideas are to come. I hope you write a story too, I can't wait to read it!

Thanks so much again for the review!

I'm doing an X3 one in the style of Once Upon a Time and Yellow Brick Road. It's a bitch to write because X3 sucked so hard it's almost impossible to continue the storyline. >:(

I read. I liked your take.
((Though if you pay attention to the third movie, at the end, it is explicit that the cure is not permanent. I think that would also make for a very cool other one shot in continuation for this. Hehehe...hint hint!))

I also miss House/Cameron. I miss that show being good. I still watch it for the occasional glimpse of what made it so good, but these are becoming rare.

Sigh.

Thanks for reviewing! Yeah, I just wanted more of a solid ending with Rogue still having some hope for what she wanted. I still see her returning to the mansion whether she has her powers or not. And as for House, I feel like that's just a sinking ship. I will always love House and Cameron and always picture them together in the end, but it's just so different from how it was before I can't get past it. They had so much potential on that show and it's just gone! Sad.

Anyways, thanks again for the review!
