No more lecturing me on my cliffhangars, k thx? Wow, this was one hell of a chapter. I'm so in love with this fic, it's not even funny.

Forge bad. Throw rocks at him. But I'm still oddly endeared. His guilt was palpable.

Magneto...wow that guy just gets more and more complicated. His revelation will have far-reading consequences.

I am Hank's willing slave. I will trail in his harem. You rock the blue furball, especially with this line: “Despite appearances, I’m more of a man than you, Erik. And don’t provoke me.” That's our boy.

The scene with Logan and Ro just killed me. Dead, I tell you.

A wonderful chapter. Pure emotional, gut-wrenching poetry.

Author's Response: But...but...you always give us killer cliffhangers, you! (and they rock, by the way) Yeah, Forge bad. Forge need smack. I like him though, too. He means well. And Magneto had that little tidbit of information from the beginning, even though I didn't allude to it much previously. At least, I don't think I did. I see him being a lot like Forge, except he didn't mean well. He wanted to use his government connections against them. And YOU rock the blue furball! He broke my heart in Tell Me, I'm stil picking up the shards. Glad you're enjoying this, I know I get long-winded. (and another Shatter update wouldn't hurt, either...if you wanted to)

Wow that was quite the emotional tumult! At least now I understand the Magda scene. I felt sorry for Erik for a variety of reasons. He only sees the bad in humans as a whole. It was understandable why Logan went ballistic. I wonder what Hank will make of the drive...and Forge. Great chapter!

Author's Response: Good. I was hoping to tie up loose ends. Erik knows there are humans who are "exceptions" to the rule, but he just won't acknowledge it out loud. Hank will have some things to say soon. Thanks for the review!
