Well I have to say I was thoroughly enjoying the story until the end. Gah. It really suckerpunches you. Mortimer's characterization was dead-on, and I enjoyed reading your take on him.You even made me laugh out loud once or twice! Mystique felt a little off, but in fanfiction, you create your own universe, and she was the only one I felt that way about. Superb job, altogether.
Urgh. Have just stayed up very late to read this from start to finish. Damn you for making this good! There goes my good night sleep. Sigh... Fab stuff, but the ending? So sad! Poor Mort! If only it wasn't so late I could read the ressurection thingy. Ah well. WEll done for making Mort sound a lot more realistic than alot of people do. Are you English? If you are that would explain it.
Anyway, really liked this, the plot arch is really good. Yeah. I'm going to bed now.
NO :runs around franticly: this cant finish now? she isnt dead? what the hell happened? why cant toad ever be happy :snivels: ah he's all mine again :huggles toad: not that i hate Arioch,she's cool,in a weird kind of way..and toad is sexy,in a frog kinda way...you get my drift? No? good,saves time... right,im off then...to hunt down some more toad stories :looks around: hm,i cant find any! nO :cries: :bodygaurds escort her out: why WHY :muffled: why why why.. alright im going now really...BYE
you want my advice?: WRITE A BLOODY SEQUAL COS COR' THIS IS BLAZIN GOOD STUFF!
I would think that such a supposed bada$$ would have never be out of weaponry if the artillery were taken out. THe human body would be primed to be one fighting machine, capable of moves to kill with timely precision. The thought crossed my mind, again, as I read of Rogue and Jubilee easily defeating Arioch, that it's not the number of battles won that makes a true "killer," it's the method that makes it happen.
Then again, that's just my own humble opinion. A weak female mercenary? How do they do it?
Mystique and Sabertooth were losers, abandoning their teammates. Poor Kermit.
I take it that Mystique isn't much of a Public Relations person? If Arioch is so wonderful, how did Mystique so easily give her challenge? I think the Blue Leprachaun (Mystique) would, from this chapter's evidence, be the better player. Perhaps even a better mercenary?
Why is it that women are always portrayed as the best assassins? The sexiest? Yes. The best? It's not the number of kills that matters, it's how you do it.
You have talent in spinning a tale. Good Job.

You cruel, cruel person. Its not funny anymore! *Sobs* More writing! Please? Look, I'm GROVELING! Sigh. Maybe the story is best this way. Bitter-sweet. But honestly, I've read this and Nocturne, and I'd have to say this is my favourite. (Ok, that's out of two stories. Hope this will boost your confidence more: It's one of my favourite X-men movie verse stories period) On a final note: MORE!

MORE. I actually cried. And at the time I was reading this, I wasn't even listening to sobby music. Unless you count Offspring, Linken Park, Korn, and numerous songs from the Queen of the Damned soundtrack to be sobby. (I didn't feel like anything in particular, and a couple of people I know gave me a few songs to listen too). Lord, imagine if I listened to something all weepy with subtle violins in the background...I'd probably still be weeping. (Don't worry, I'm better now. I'm feeling no sadness -or pain (just kidding) because it's been awhile since I read it, and I have since read several other fics. But oh... I love that fic. That might be a great ending. I think some of your other readers may be worried that is the end of the fic. (Actually, I am a little to). Atleast if it ends there, its a great ending. But I seriously want more! I definetly don't always get what I want, but I'm hoping... This might actually be one of my favourite fan fiction stories. Changing the subject once again, is this the end? Because I start to get the impression it isn't, because they're are too many loose ends. We don't know what Otis did to her, or why she started bleeding from her skin. She might "come back to life." (Or remain dead, with Toad searching for answers, but that seems less likely, as Arioch was one of the -if not The- main characters). But then, you could always just leave it there to frustrate your readers. (Or simply because it might make an excellent, tragic and weepy ending). But if you do leave it there, could you at least post one more chapter, not necessarily written as a story or chapter, but explaining what happened. (I, personally, am hoping for just plain MORE! MORE WRITING! As long as it's as good as what has come before it. Hey, I'm hoping anything that comes after this might even be better. So... in conclusion, I must say I REALLY like the story, in fact, I love it. Now more please?) If you want to end the story here, you could always do a different story with the same two characters. Almost AU. There's lots of different stories about one singular character. Or even better, write more about this story, and then make it into a series! Yeah!
