Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed it. If you like fic from the first 3 X-Men movies, you might want to check out my lonnnnnnng fanfic novel, Days of Becoming.

I can't open the link D:

Site was down for a couple of days. I only found out yesterday. It's back up now.

Oh Darwin! I loved this so, so much - all the adaptations Darwin makes, both inside and out, and how his power works both for and against his will. (but I shouldn't have read it at work because then I had to go hide in the loo for a cry)

[talktooloose]

Darwin is a great character because he offers so many metaphoric possibilities! Actually, most of the X-Men do; that's why they're brilliant. I'm sorry (not really) for making you cry at work!

This is absolutely stunning. I don't know what else to say.

I humbly thank you.

Worth waiting for!

Can I ask you -- as a gay man -- about your inspiration for writing Alex? Is Alex's denial a common response for young, gay men? How about the way Alex views women, as "sluts" and "whores?" Is that something you've seen amongst men in the gay community, or did it just work b/c this character is so angry and unbalanced? (Which I love, BTW...you and I see Pyro similar ways, although I make him straight...)

Sorry if this is really insensitive. The characters were so believable that it made me wonder. And I figured I'd take advantage of our anonymity here. ;)

I read your email before bed last night and I've been thinking about it since. Very good questions, and heavens no, they're not in any way insensitive

[talktooloose]

Thank you so much. I'm glad people are still finding their way to this fic. Obscure pairings are not the route to popularity!

Also, you might also enjoy my long X-Men Movie novel: Days of Becoming. It's a Pyro/Iceman novel, but it has a bigger scope than that, and I try to tie together a lot of elements in the original X-Men movie trilogy.
