This is utterly amazing, I love it! Can't wait to see more. Rogue and Scott's relationship seems to have had a good amount of build up time, and a natural progression, it isn't rushed or even the slightest bit awkward. I just love their interaction and playfulness though, and how the characters grow. Great job!

Oh the disappointment! You lure me in with the first fabulous work in this series, give me one chapter of this with so much promise ... and then no more. *heavy sigh* I hope that real life has just been too wonderfully busy to post but you're off somewhere writing more to this epic love story ... please please please please come back and post more at some point! We'll be waiting! :) Gracie

I wasted away in front of my computer, ignoring sunshine and life, to read the previous story and now that I've finished the beginning of the sequel - I have to ask, where's the rest?

I truly enjoy the development and the plot. Slow and steady - it's so satisfying. I hope your muse hasn't run off! I know real life can get consuming but I pray you don't forget this story. Call me selfish but I would love to read what you've created to the end.

I do hope that one day you continue. Cheers!

loved it

Great, riveting story. You had me hooked on first part and I suspect my interest will only, erm, Escalate. ;)

I just finished reading through Contemplation, and I am amazed at how much insight you packed into the characters. The quality of your writing is delightful (especially compared to the rest of the dreck here)-I thoroughly enjoyed it and hope to see more. The lack of updates since end of last September have me worried-are you still writing this? It's rare to find X-Men fic that ignores First Class (it seems to have taken over the fandom of late), and I would hate to see this great series remain unfinished. :/

I like the continuation and I cannot wait to read the next chapter!

I love this and its first story. I really hope to see this eventually continued!

Just finished the first story and eagerly headed over here. Update please!

Part one was excellent. Now I can't wait for more of part two.

I really enjoyed this beginning. Your first fic was a delight to read and this one (should you continue it) is promising to be just as delightful. Please update soon!

I love this story. I normally never review but I'm really disappointed that it hasn't been updated. UPDATE PLEASE!

Please write more of this. This is the best X-Men fic I have ever read. I love the flow of the story and am every anxious to see where it goes.

Oh wow...I've read the first part, and now this first chapter. And I am one happy Scogue lover! :D Very slow build-in to them being together, believable and sweet. I honestly can't wait for you to post more...I keep checking this hoping an update occured while I was asleep, lol. I always saw Rogue as needing to be more comfortable with herself as well as others...I mean, how can you control something you're deathly afraid of like she is with her powers? And I also always saw her as being one amazing cook/baker...funny how you thought the same. Adding this to alerts, and I plan on checking out more of your stories as well. Looking forward to more!

wow...I just finished Contemplation and read this all in one go, and I absolutely love this story line. I love seeing another side to Scott, and Rogue overcoming her fears, and I honestly cannot wait to read the rest of his story.
