omg, i'm just sitting here at my computer with a big goofy grin on my face cuz i just loved the ending of this story...i hate to see it go but i loved the way u did it...the proposal was sooo cute and i loved logan's lil 'ask me what's in my pocket' lol...and ororo was crackin me up with the painkillers and cheerleader bit...once again, great storyy!!!
Author's Response: I'm glad I left you with a grin! I remember with the birth of my third child, I labored so long at home that I never got so much as a dose of Staidol to numb things a little, and the nurse actually delivered my daughter when the doc stepped out to do an emergency c-section the next suite over. I had turned to my husband and said, "Damn it, didn't I tell them I wanted some painkiller?" He just laughed...they didn't listen to me, doggone it! Glad you stuck with me for the conclusion, 'angel.

Well, I've the whole triumverate, the good, the umm and the no-way for you. Lets do a countdown.
The no-way first. Using Logan/James' mother's name for the kid (even more so when compared to what's to come in OUaT).
The umm, the religious-festive track. Then again, I understand that, and wish that my experience with North American (or specifically) Afro-American christian customs and norms could be as detailed. It don't work this way in the Roman Catholics back in India. They're more umm...(if you will) subdued/calm/orthodox/well, I can't the correct word right now. Also, I am not all that into the whole 'extended family'. Got a rather sizable one of my own and have a difficulty in even placing them, let alone remember their names. (**has a shudder run down the spine**)
The good, happy RoLo. What else is there to ask for.
Author's Response: The triumverate...uh,oh. I've made you feel the no-way and the ummm, that's not a good sign!!! (grins) My husband is actually Catholic, and I never converted when we married, so that isn't a religion I could have drawn from, anyway. I have a large extended family whom I don't always connect with well, but their idiosyncracies are the things that I come away with whenever I visit, and that is what I drew from when I wrote this. When you're the underachiever and the milkweed in a family of roses and overachievers, it's easy to fade into the wallpaper and make personal observations and "people watch." So sue me. Yes, I know Logan has a ****ty relationship with his mother in the 616 universe, so yeah, that name thing would never happen in the comicsverse, but this is AU, and I wanted reconciliations for both mothers with their children in this. I wouldn't have been happy with the ending without that. Again, so sue me.

I couldnt stop laughing at parts in this last chapter the christmas scene was to much like the way it is at my grandothers house not enough room for everybody but everyones just to happy to have everyone there to say that grandma needs a new house lol. the wedding made me cry and broght back the day i got married to my man, the child birth was just to much for me lol i remeber when both of my sons were born the oldest son wasnt easy but my yougest was a dream to have i had him by C-Section lol.. I REALLY HATED TO SEE THIS STORY END FOR ITS MY FAV. AND I DONT HAVE MANY LOL BUT THIS ONE IS NOW FIRST ON THE LIST CANT WAIT TO SEE MORE FROM YOU YOUR AN AWESOME WRITER LIKE I SAID BEFORE... YOU CAN GO FAR!!!!!!!!!!!! LET YOUR GOALS CARRY YOU TO YOUR DREAMS IN LIFE BE WELL MY FRIEND AND I'M WAITING FOR MORE AWESOME STORIES FROM YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GOD BLESS YA
Author's Response: Your reviews have been so much fun to read, Mink! I've done the birth thing three times in my own life, so I had a lot to draw from. All three labors were long, painful, and "the old fashioned way," with no C-section...not fun. I'm really glad you stuck with reading this story, and have offered so much feedback. It's made it fun to continue.

*Applause* Alriiiight. Way to go. That was awsome. The proposal was awsome. It made me smile cause it was just perfect. It was totally in character. Brilliant ending to a wonderful story. Mebbe a follow up with little Lizzie is on the way, ne...
Author's Response: The chapter title actually came from when my husband proposed to me and gave me the ring the day after my oldest son was born. He didn't get all soppy like Logan did with 'Ro, but I messed with him a moment and said "Hmmm, it's smaller than a breadbox...what could it be?" I'm not the teary type, either, and we had already been cohabitating, but sometimes, I wish we had a more romantic story to tell people about the day he proposed. Call me a sappy chick; that's why Ororo got a more interesting proposal than I did. THAT'S why this is a fairy tale!!! I might do a one-shot with Lizzie, a short one, if I get to it.

1. *snif snif* I so LOVE right now...that was perfect and a terrific way to end an amazing story
2. Can i have Logan? lol 'Ro won't mind...much
3.I can't believe Logan had the balls to that! I would have passed out from the stress of it and to do it in front of an audience? forget about.
4. Loved what Logan's dad said when he found out that Ro could sing. Yep she is all that and a bag of chips.
4. What makes this story really spical imo is how you incorporate real life into this story, it's so real that its touchable. Anyway I don't have to tell you this story was off the hook...you've read it :)
5. I'm sad to see this end but all good things must come to an end...this is one of my favorite RoLo fics ever..thanks for the ride ;D
Author's Response: 1. thank you kindly, madam! 2. shoot, I wanna crack at him, too! yeah, she might mind... 3. yeah, poor guy almost had a coronary! bless his little heart! 4. I like Logan's dad. He was fun to write. 5. My own life sure isn't this fun, but elements of it make me laugh, so those are the ones that make it into type. 6. Glad you enjoyed it, hope you'll read me again!

Awwww, that's exactly what i kept saying throughout the story. Of course it was great ; )
Author's Response: Hi there! Thanks for the praise! and thanks for reading! Cee

I just love it when a fanfic has a happy ending! A perfect ending! I loved it: the proposal, the wedding, the birth. Just perfect. A perfect ending to one of the best ROLo fics i've ever read!
Author's Response: Thanks!! I like happy endings, too, although I'll rarely write a dark fic with other characters on other sites that have less than stellar endings, just because the mood hits me. I drew from my own experience on the birth thing...ouch! Thanks for reading.

I sooooooooooo needed this, Cee. Beautiful, Simply one the BEST stories (fanfic or otherwise) that I have ever read. Lovely, darlin'. I can't get this stupid smile off my face. All was right with the world indeed. RoLo at it's finest. :D I usually dislike AU stories, but between you and Tempest I may become a convert.;)
Author's Response: I didn't think I would ever like AU stories until I began reading them on this site by other authors, then I wanted to write one myself. I'm glad this one worked for you, kiddo, which is great, coming from one of my fanfic idols! I grin in silly fashion whenever I reread any of your stories that have UItimate tone, one-liners, and Ororo and Ali wisecracking to beat the band. Keep that good stuff coming!

Loved this story. Keep writing like this and one day you may be at the top of the bestsellers list!!
Author's Response: That's high praise, indeed. Thanks!!! Glad you enjoyed it.

Aw...! I'm just... aw! I don't know what to say besides I loved it. *sigh* Everything in life should be so fulfilling as fanfic. :)
Author's Response: Yup. I know my own life doesn't resemble fanfic in the least, at least not the fun parts!!!! But that's why I write. I'm glad you've been catching up with this story, Tempest. Hope you have the chance to scribble down some updates, yourself! Eventually, anyway...I know you're busy!

This is a very good story. It's full of emotion and depth. I just have one nitpick. Your sex scenes are sexy, hot, very well written, and a great plot motivator. However when you write out sounds like "Eeeerrrrgggghh", it takes away from the scene. We get the idea of what kind of noises are going on from your descrption of the scene and the things that they are saying to one another. To be completely honest with you reading those sounds aren't sexy. You do a beautiful job without the sound effects that make me want to laugh instead of blush.
Author's Response: Hi. Nicely worded nitpick. Fair enough observation. Duly noted. I, for one, would rather write out a sound effect than overdescribe the scene with narrative, but that's just me. I'm addicted to sound effects, and laughing at a love scene is not necessarily a bad thing; remember this scene started with Ororo biting her tongue. But thanks for commenting (very usefully, I might add) and leaving a review.

1. I can't believe you kept mention Catwoman...BW is going to KILL YOU lol
2. I love how you keep finding way to word things and make me think he is not short when I know good and well he is. 'Ro is going to have bad back problems...i said it here first lol
3. At first I wasn't feeling Ro's Mom at all but know I'm liking her a lot...especially because she took matter into her own damn hands
4. LOVED how Logan said he was sorry for the quickie, I thought that was so sweet.
5. I ADORE Ruthie..she was funny as hell and I swear I must have met her before in my mom lol
Author's Response: 1. I'm a glutton for punishment. Yes, he will kill me, but I will die with a stupid grin on my face. He'll get me back with his next reference to "christening the curtains, trust me. 2. Yeah, he's short, but again, good things come in small packages. 3. Ro's mom can grow a little, it's important that she doesn't keep a narrow mind if she loves her daughter, y'know? 4. They had to hustle out of the way of the cleaning crew!!! And he missed her, doggone it! (chuckles) 5. Ruthie is derived from many of my aunts and my mom, too. Couldn't help it, she just ended up being written that way.

YEEEEEeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaa!!!
Lol Figures that she breaks in her office furniture right before she leaves for a new job.
Love N'dare, Leon and the others. Especially Erik and the o'so adorable Charles.
I don't want this to end. This and Rubbin Me the Wrong Way are brilliant, and so very very real.
Author's Response: hey, this is what's so much fun about fanfiction! Breaking in office furniture! Glad you like the other story, too, kiddo. I'm addicted to fairy tales, so sue me. It was just funny to imagine Erik as an old guy chewing peppermints and owning a little wiener dog.
