Brief summary: Wolverine and Rogue go on a mission that's sort of a bust, but then Rogue takes a bubblebath and things get much, much more interesting. Of all the stories where Wolverine reveals his love for Rogue, I like this the best.

I know that Logan doesn’t want me. I’ve known it since I saw how he looked at me, and how he looked at Jean, the first time he returned to the mansion. I got easy warmth and an affectionate hug. Jean got crackling tension and innuendo and looks so blistering that it’s a wonder their clothes didn’t burn off right there in the foyer. There have been many, many reasons since then. But the one I’ve always clung to, the most fundamental excuse for why Logan doesn’t want me, is the impossibility of a relationship with my poisonous skin between us. Lying bought me a little more time to tell myself it was my mutation keeping him from declaring his love. But time is up now, apparently, and this is the core of it all: Logan doesn’t want me the way I want him, and I have been a coward, running from that truth.

Title: "Logan Gets Leid"
Author: Macha at The Sticky Wicket and thestickywicket.
Characters: Wolverine/Rogue
Prompt: 34. Vacation
Rating: PG-13
Length: medium
Brief summary: Hee hee hee. Rogue and Wolverine go on a cruise. No, seriously. I mean, obviously Rogue bribed him to come with her, but still. Written exclusively in dialogue, which makes it even funnier.

"Marie?"

"Yes, Logan?"

"How many goddamned people are getting on this boat?"

"It's a ship."

"Marie."

"Well, it is. A boat is, I don't know, smaller, I guess? And I think there are maybe... 1,500 people?"

"What!?"
