"I ain't dead, darlin'."

"I can see that."

That alone was enough to make this chapter excellent, never mind all the other good stuff. I love watching Ororo fly off the handle, hardly anyone writes her as losing control so deeply.

I'm glad I've been on this ride for so long with this fic. Hard to believe I've been following it for at least a year!!!

Author's Response: lol, hard to believe that I've been writing it for over 3 at this point.

Excellent research and use of the resources that you had at hand to make this chapter chilling and believable, my friend.

I also kind of enjoy the aspect of Angel, usually seen as this pristine, impossibly perfect character, being so much of a predator in this story, much in the same way that Logan or Vic are, even though Angel would never normally lump himself into their category as a killer. It's not surprising to see the dissent in the ranks of your coven of evil docs, too! "Any questions?" I love that. Feels almost like watching an episode of Angel, with the lawyers of Wolfram and Hart.

My buddy Hellion out on FF.net wrote a story referencing those experiments that the Nazis carried out against the Jews in his fic "In the Name of Science." Dark story, but this momentarily reminded me of that. Good work, as always.

Author's Response: Thanks CeeCee.. I have alot of resource materials at hand, and I was hopin' this chapter an' the characters would come across as chilling and believable... even scarey. I think Angel makes a better "villain" than he ever was as a good guy, he's so much fun to write as a bad guy, even when it's against his will. I don't know the lawyers yer referrin' to, but I'm glad it felt famillial to you. Your buddy wrote an entire story about the Nazi experiments?? I'd love to read it, I cant imagine writin' an entire story revolvin' around that. Just writin' the bits for Eye that parallel the same is draining for me. Thanks for the wonderful review, it's always a pleasure to hear from you CeeCee. Thanks. --- W6C

Goodness. Great attention to 616 character references, even if this is kinda alternate verse (kinda). I like Mariko and Yukio. I can see Yukio getting pretty verbal about what's happening with 'Ro. I hope she does.

Author's Response: I had thought of making Yukio an ex-gangrunner but dropped that idea in place of a simpler, more 'civilian' one. Same goes for Mariko and Amiko.

This chapter was great, not only because it had the prerequesite pillow talk between these two, but because it opened up a new conflict to keep me on the edge of my seat. The concept of them being unable to come up for air for three days was fantastic and sexy, I can see those two being pretty absorbed in each other. I hope Logan and Scott can learn to be friends again, eventually. With all of the usual wisecracking.

"Pansiness." great word. I love Logan's POV in this story.

Author's Response: Thanks. I was going to make it the date chapter....guess that will come in the next time.

Now that's what I'm talkin' about! I like the suspense. I also like the town called Nowhere. Must be unnerving to be Logan and find yourself there, huh?

Author's Response: Well, it would be for anyone. Nowhere? Now where is that!! LOL

Boy, Logan keeps putting his foot in it, doesn't he! I want to see more of Ororo and Scott.

DAAANNNGGGG...me likey.

You have a way of having these two show each other who's boss, especially the first kiss. Brilliant. Brilliant, brilliant, brilliant. Can't wait to see how you write that storm and see how Logan reacts to seeing her in her element.

Author's Response: A compliment from you my dear is taken straight to heart. :D So thank you very, very much. More soon, and I sooooo appreciate you being a constant reviewer. I appreciate feedback, especially from fellow authors!
