I'm in love with this story. I am so curious as to how logan fits into her life. And Remys relationship expectations. Ororo is amazing as a model. Can't wait for more.

Your writing is amazing. It feels more like you're reading a novel instead of fanfic simply because the quality is so good. The characters are colourful and dynamic, complex. Seeing Ororo as this diamond in the rough supermodel in the making is so fun and interesting. The Eddie Brock cameo was neat.

Still loving this story. It was gripping when I first started reading it and it still has my attention, not such a bad thing, but I am missing the Rolo aspect of this being so far along with the story now. Hope to read more soon and really see where this is going. As always your story telling is beyond compare. A A

Just going back and reading a few of my favorites and ran across this one again. Surprised I never left a review, I loved this fic so much. The characterization of everybody is off the chain. Everything about this story has been flawless. Hope to see an update to this one soon. A A

Author's Response: Thanks, Angel. The story is still tugging at me. I have a whole stable of fics in a handful of different fandoms that I have been neglecting. Work, kids, art and all kinds of other stuff has been pushing these stories off my work table. I appreciate the feedback.

any chance for an update on this, OCN? really would like to see what is next for Ororo with her modeling.

Author's Response: I'm trying to dip back into a lot of my stories. When I'm not writing, I do a lot of drawing, and I'm working on some concept art for one of my Twitter friends this month. Thanks for expressing interest in this story. it's actually one of my favorites of my own stuff that I'm still working on. I have a couple out here that I have completely abandoned, where my muses have just shrugged and said "we got nuthin'." There is a lot more in store for Ororo and her modeling, more shows, more spreads, travel, you name it. There will also be more rivalry with Callisto, which I enjoy writing.

I think both Remy and Ororo are fortunate to have each other in their lives. There are parallels between the two lives, and if they make it through whatever is to come plot wise, they could definitely have a rewarding friendship. At least, imo. To me, there just seems to be a tenderness and mutual awareness that could go either way. I'm just a lil' biased though ;) But I admit it :D

Ororo's past with Vic was gut-wrenching. My heart goes out to her so bad, because I can only imagine how bad things must have been for her to stoop down to a level like that. Was sad, but very realistic. I'm glad that with Remy's help she has a chance at promising career and she can leave that mess in the dust -- forever.

Callisto is a (not so nice word). I loved it when Ororo basically told her that she was on her way out. That was epic. It's funny because 'Ro seems to lack confidence (I guess because of her past) but when the rubber meets the road, she holds her head high and grits through whatever she needs to and I love that. It's like there is a ray of hope for her, to find security and repair her life, permanently.

And how about that 'Swag'? I'm so excited for her; I hope she and Remy blows that mag out of the water. I'm so glad she's happy about the offer. Can't wait to see what becomes of it. I want homegirl to blow up! LOL

On another note: I very, VERY, rarely read RoLo. The fic has to be really exceptional for me to read it. That being said: You write incredibly and in turn your stories are incredible. I check this site every so often and since finding this story I began looking at some of your other stories and you are a talented writer. And for a enormous OreO fan (who doesn't read RoLo) I hope you take that as a compliment.

I wish I could favorite this story or alert it, but alas, I guess I'll just have to check for updates occasionally. I had no idea this had been updated.

Oh and sorry about this looooonnnnggggg review =)

Author's Response: I don't mind a long review! I LOVE them! I like OReO too, and I have had people get a little annoyed with me for going so far in that direction with this story so far, but it will change pretty soon, and go in directions that I hope aren't too predictable. Victor spoke to me. Some of the Marvel villains that I scribble in fic do that. I can see him enjoying having an advantage over a young, vulnerable girl and feeling big when she accepts his shady offer, like he owns her. He isn't finished in this story, and Ororo isn't the only person he's burned before. The Rolo thread is running through this story, even though it's subtle. Logan has his own past that's slowly looming in my brain fog, waiting for me to write it. I want him and Ororo both to grow a little before they connect. He's fresh off an ugly split, she's trying to build herself up and gain some confidence, and she's fighting the comfortable, familiar convenience of a seemingly perfect man taking care of her, when she needs to learn to take care of herself. Thanks for visiting, Ashra.

I did a jig when I noticed this had been updated =]

Ororo and Remy's past were extremely gritty. Both the accounts of there past were shocking. But very real. Perhaps they can both comfort each other in that, if Remy ever learns of it. [I do like the Oreopairing too]

I felt so bad for Ororo when she didn't get the job, but then I whooped when she got the other one. What a business!

Love this story. Bunches.

Author's Response: I had to throw Ororo a bone. I want to keep moving her along in her career, and I wanted to do the scene with Callisto, who is one of my favorite of Ororo's "frenemies" in the Marvel Universe, along with Emma. Keep practicing that jig. I have updates in mind soon; right now, I'm actually in the middle of updating Getaway, which I haven't touched in... around two years or more. Yeah. Guilty.

Here's hoping the muse fairy comes to visit you soon because I'm lovin' this story!

I am in love your your Ororo she is fierce. I like that even though she still carries her beauty gracefully she has a little edge to her. The way she handles Callisto...fab-u-ous! I hope she shares her past with Remy before it catches with her.

I would love to see more of a certain sex cabby...what was his name again...James Howlett, I think.

Great job, I can't wait to read more!!

Author's Response: I wanna see more of that cabby, too. :) Ororo's going to realize how much her past is going to bite her if she doesn't deal with it, not just in regard to Remy, but in terms of maintaining her image and her integrity. I'm having fun with this, but it just takes me time to get back to it.

So I happened to be prowling through and found this story and I have to say I LOVE it. It's so fresh - the humor and personalities of everyone in the story. I get the impression of this deeply woven tale when reading it and it feels so 'filling'. Like your really watching something, this tale, taking place right before you.

How your writing everyone is really fantastic. What's even greater is that I'm both a huge OreO fan and Rolo fan so I feel like this is a dream come true =)

Both it and your writing are exceptional. I do hope you will update again and continue this story. Once you've stumbled onto something so good you can't help but want more =)
I don't have an account but I'll certainly be checking back and forth. Good luck :D



Author's Response: Sorry I haven't replied up til now *or updated*. Thanks for the nice review and insights. I appreciate them.

Mmm-hmm that was a bangin' update! Worth the wait. Gosh, I love the cut-throat backstage of the modeling industry, in fan fic mind you =)

& gosh, I love your characterizations. You can practically feel the griminess and viciousness. & how friggin' adorable is my Remy?! * gushes* You can do it 'Ro!

Man, you can write. I'm as jealous as Callisto :D

Author's Response: Ha! Thanks! I had fun with this chapter, since it was what crossed my mind from the beginning of this fic, this was the direction I wanted it to go, with Ororo having a lot mishaps before she had any real success. And Callisto is one of my favorite villains in the X-Verse, since she is like Ororo's flip side, if she stepped too far over that line. It's fun to make her this oddball supermodel with an attitude who's hard to work with, but we'll see different sides of her character, too. Thanks for visiting.

Way to work it, Ro!

Author's Response: Ha! I know. I wish I could move like her. Imagining her all fierce with the fan made me grin, so I had to write it out.

Oh my, I was so embarassed for Ororo! Good thing she was able to put herself together in time!

Please keep up! I really want to see where you're going with this one!

Author's Response: I wanna see where I'm going with it, too! Because I have no clue!!! :p heeheehee... Thanks for the visit!

I'm happy that you updated the story, it's a refreshing take on the characters and I can't wait for Ororo to kick Callisto's ass on the runaway. Let 'Ro show it how's it done ; )

Author's Response: I love Callisto as an antagonist; notice how I don't say villain, since she isn't the garden variety bad guy who wants to rule the world, just her own tiny corner of it, namely mutants who are freaks like her in the comics. She's fun to add into an AU, especially as a kind of beauty who isn't everyone's cup of tea, but who's memorable and who doesn't give a ***k what anyone else thinks. Ororo will want to kick her ass, but she also needs to take lessons from her.
