Days of Becoming, Chapter 18
Feb. 14th, 2008 10:55 amTitle: Days of Becoming, Chapter 18 - “Let the Statue of Liberty See What Lies Inland”
Author: Talktooloose
'Verse: X-Men movieverse
Warnings: Explicit sex, swearing, bad rap, flame wars and, uh, explicit sex.
Betas:
kuria_dalmatia,
mofic and l
ux_apollo: Passionate, precise and indispensible.
Disclaimers: Marvel and 20th Century own this stuff but they do stupid stunts like killing off Cyclops and cancelling New X-Men. No actors were harmed in the making of this fic including Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins and Chad Michael Murray who appear without permission.
Series Summary: This novel focusses mainly on the paths Iceman and Pyro take on their way to adulthood and how they discover and deal with their love for each other. It is a novel about what Joni Mitchell calls "the dream's malfunction" and how we can learn to make our own dreams when our heroes fail us. Other X characters (including ones from comicverse and elsewhere) and OC's play prominent roles and the action begins before X1, continues through the events of X2 and X3 and concludes in the aftermath of that movie.
Chapter Summary: The mutant protest goes ahead in New York but Bobby and John have their reasons for missing out. John shares secrets with Jean and Kitty and questions Bobby's feelings. Featuring Forge and his amazing gadgets! Also, the return of a missing OC!
Sorry for the delay but I took on a stupid freelance job that is eating my brain. Also, the chapter is the longest yet and took a long time to get right.
RETCON ALERT: I came to my senses and restructured so that Book 3 now begins with Chapter 17, not Chapter 16. I don't know what I was thinking before.
I LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU. Please use the comments link at the end of the chapter to bring you back here or drop me email to talktooloose CAT toothdemon FRAUGHT net. That oughta fool the spambots for now.
Here's the chapter!
