Reviews For: Must Be The Music: Old Yellow Bricks

Solunita 2008-02-26 ch 1,	abuseI love the way you captured Rogue and have not come up with any quick solutions/ways around her powers. And Scott, I love that he is not whiny, and has a backbone. I can't wait for his oneshot and hopefully a Scott/Rogue pairing in the future. Or more JP snarkiness or JP/Pietro fluff.
tripleT.Vo 2008-01-12 ch 1,	abuseHi, it's me again. :) Just read your series of "Must Be the Music" so far, and they're very good. Right amount of action and drama, and hidden pieces of humor in between. :D
Minerva Solo 2007-07-19 ch 1,	abuseIt's so great to finally get internet access back and have some of this to read! Well, several of these, really. I love the interaction between Rogue and Kurt in this, and the acknowledgement from the very beginning that she doesn't really want herself to be happy (it'd be interesting to see her work out why, whether it's something to do with Mystique, or her past, or her powers). I love the big party, and the contrast with the quiet time back at the mansion with Scott. Definitely interested in seeing where it goes from here, if we get a Scott PoV story. so want to throw my love into the ring for the JP and Jean parts. I love your JP, in all his snarky spiteful glory, hurting himself and those around him despite himself. And it as really interesting to read Jean's thoughts on herself, and the way being a pretty girl has privileged her in ways she's only just beginning to regonise. Definitely looking forwards to the next part. Thanks for writing ^_^
SkyRogue 2007-07-07 ch 1,	abuseWow... That was just... amazing! I loved it! I wish you'd continue the Rogue version, though I know you're doing a little series here. I think I might read the rest of it, but not tonight. I'm kinda tired. Anyway, really really really good job! You portrayed Rogue in a great way, one that I wish I could see more often. Awesome! -SkyRogue
Evil lobster girl 2007-07-02 ch 1,	abuseOkay I definitely liked it. Great plot and snappy dialouge. But as an Irish girl I feel I must avenge St Paddy's day. Saint Patrick was born in Roman Britain. When he was about sixteen he was captured by Irish raiders and taken as a slave to Ireland, where he lived for six years before escaping and returning to his family. He entered the church, as his father and grandfather had before him, becoming a deacon and a bishop. He later returned to Ireland as a missionary. By the eighth century he had become the patron saint of Ireland. See we don't think he was from Dublin. Also, relevent Joke: Three Englishmen were in a bar and spotted an Irishman. So, one of the Englishmen walked over to the Irishman, tapped him on the shoulder, and said, "Hey, I hear your St. Patrick was a drunken loser." "Oh really, hmm, didn't know that." Puzzled, the Englishman walked back to his buddies. "I told him St. Patrick was a loser, and he didn't care." The second Englishman remarked, "You just don't know how to set him off...watch and learn." So, the second Englishman walked over to the Irishman, tapped him on the shoulder and said, "Hey, I hear your St. Patrick was lying, cheating, idiotic, low-life scum!" "Oh really, hmm, didn't know that." Shocked beyond belief, the Englishman went back to his buddies. "You're right. He's unshakable!" The third Englishman remarked, "Boys, I'll really tick him off... just watch." So the third Englishman walked over to the Irishman, tapped him on the shoulder and said, "I hear St. Patrick was an Englishman!" "Yeah, that's what your buddies were trying to tell me." Sorry about the unnaturally long review and horribly rascist joke but I'm sure you appreciate all the pointless, uninteresting information. I consider St Paddy avenged.
ishandahalf 2007-07-01 ch 1,	abuseokay, i have absolutely no clue why i didn't read any of your fics before. total lapse in judgement on my part, obviously. but i was skimming down the evo page and was intrigued by this summary, decided to take a peek in... and wow. i LOVED this. in that gut-wrenching way, of course, because poor rogue... despite my inner rogue/remy fan curling up into an upset little ball inside of me right now, i really have to say that you absolutely NAILED rogue, such a wonderful characterization. i can't even begin to describe it, really. so of course, after reading this, i was compelled to totally blow off my plans for the day and spend it all reading your little 'relativity' universe instead. and now i'm back to say that i loved it all... i really can't wait for more fics from you, i'll definitely be keeping my eyes peeled. :)
Risty 2007-07-01 ch 1,	abuseOnce again, I decided that I have to review to offer my own opinion about the story in public... so... Thank you for putting something out there where people bother to show Rogue that she needs to (and in fact easily could) just get over herself, because she is a great wandering heap of random self pity that wants attention for being sad. Which is normal and human... but oh so much more useful if you can GET OVER IT. Definitely looking forward to Scott's one now... which is a bit scary. But hey... that's nowhere near as weird as convincing me about Jambit, so whatcha going to do? Except find something else with which to scar us... Okay, don't get ideas! Anyway, I do actually have to agree with most of the other reviews though - you write an excellent Rogue. She's just the right mix of blunt, angry, and badly in denial, and the sentence structure really works to back that up in a non-over-the-top-hitting-us-all-with-symbolism way. So awesome! Now write Sammy and send it over, so I can listen to one of my favourite songs as a soundtrack for editting!
Amelia Glitter 2007-06-30 ch 1,	abusePoor Rogue! Just torture her why don't you? (not that she doesn't do a good job torturing herself.)
CrimsonObsession 2007-06-30 ch 1,	abuseDude, that HURT. ;_; It went from being a Rogue pity-party to Scott basically ripping her heart out and sticking it in her face so she could see every detail with painful clarity. Wow, that ending was intense. Wow. Uh, as for the rest of it, I love Jean-Paul and Rogue's relationship, Pyro's antics were amusing and very Pyro, Kurt was adorable enough to (almost) make me not care that he was at a party at the BH house and he didn't interact with Todd in any way (nudge nudge) and the whole thing was really bloody awesome. I hope the next one won't be too long in coming!
amura 2007-06-30 ch 1,	abusegah, rogue is so tragic! absolutely love this chapter - you write rogue so friggin well! though a small part of me thinks (hopes?) that gambit wants her not just because he can't have her. and, geez, now scott too? poor girl. if only she realized she didn't need to torture herself, and that she could be happy. great work as always (and i think one of the ones i like best so far - but i'm a sucker for tragic heroes). looking forward to the next part! ps any change of adding gambit to the lineup? i think you write him fantastically too, and he's another of my loved tragic characters :p
girlonthem00n 2007-06-30 ch 1,	abuseLove these. I'd really like to read one with Remy's POV sometime, I know he's not on the list but it would be a good read I think. Normally I'm not a Rogue shipper at all but I really like your Rogue in this. Anyways I heart them and love to get alerts on them.
Caliente 2007-06-29 ch 1,	abuseI just want you to know... "I love you. But I hate you. For what you've done to me." (I swear, I had an image to go with that but I lost it somewhere.) Okay but seriously? Damn it woman, this ** was awesome. Seriously. I love you. I can't believe I went so long without reading your fic stuff. Wtf is wrong with me? cough Anyway. This isn't about me. This is about your amazing story. I really loved Rogue's voice in it all and the way it ran from point to point, coming full circle. I loved the explanations for everything and Scott (damn you, you're making me like things I hate) and all the little extra bits. Random note/question: Ray and Rogue-- I feel like he liked her? Did I make that up? Should I have inferred that from somewhere? Talk to me, babe. Also, in case I never told you, I find your take on Evo!Remy really interesting. I don't like him (and I suppose that's half the point of him), but I can absolutely see why he is the way he is. It's a really fun departure from the character in the comics. (Even if it ruins my first OTP. ;)) Uhm...I feel like I should say something deeper. Or offer some kind of really beautiful epiphany or, really, anything worthwhile but, alas, this is me and I'm just not like that. I will say that I adored it in every possible way. And you're wrong. You can write one-shots. Even if they're a series of them. :)
