Title: "A Lack of Restraint"
Author: Diebin at Diebin Dot Net.
Characters: Wolverine/Rogue, Scott
Prompt: 12. Humor
Rating: Mature
Length: medium
Brief summary: Scott plays matchmaker! Logan has to be a teacher! I love Scott's sense of humor in this -- it's sly and knowing, fitting in with his movieverse personality. Logan is pretty cranky about Scott's meddling, until he realizes what it means he could have.
"You're kidding, right?" Dear god I hoped he was kidding.
Scott smirked. "You've been loafing about and saving the world on weekends for almost a year, Logan. You really need to make yourself useful."
"I'm useful," I muttered, fighting the urge to do something really unmanly and perhaps drop to my knees and beg him to take it all back. "C'mon, Scott. You know better than this--I'm no kind of teacher."

Characters: Bobby/Rogue, Wolverine, other X-Men
Prompt: 14. Loss
Rating: R
Length: long to epic
Brief summary: Rogue chooses Bobby, and Wolverine has to deal with the loss. A very complex look at how marriage for Bobby and Rogue would work out, and what ways Bobby is good for her. I like this Rogue -- she's grown-up and mature, but still fiery and sassy.
At 21, Rogue decided that she was all done with waiting around.
She was finished waiting for Logan to come back. She was done waiting for Logan to catch a clue. And she was so over waiting for her adult life to start.
It was a gradual realization, like being woken by the sun on a warm summer morning. She already was an adult, and she sort of knew it long before she acknowledged it. But once she figured it out, once she embraced her newfound confidence and maturity, she realized she couldn't just keep wait around for her life to start.
