Author: JJBlazer at Blazeplace and [livejournal.com profile] jjblazer.
Characters: Wolverine/Rogue
Prompt: 42. Holiday
Rating: R
Length: medium
Brief summary: Happy New Year! Wolverine and Rogue are not cut out for New Year's Eve parties, so they camp out on the Mansion's roof to drink and talk. Also, smooch.

“So. We’ve got thirty minutes. Wanna do a countdown with me, Logan?”

“Countdown of what?”

“I dunno. How about thirty places we’d like to go. Ya know, a list of places we’ll never see.”

He laughed. Marie came up with the screwiest ideas. “Places we’ll never see? How about places we will see.”

She paused, looking at him suspiciously. “You mean you’d take me with you?”

“Why not?”

She almost wanted to hit him. Time spent with Logan was time to be cherished, and he’d tossed off his comment like it was of no importance. Yeah, she did want to hit him.

Claim: X-Men Movieverse, Rogue
Title: "The Sweetest Flowers"
Author: TommyGirl at The White Room and [livejournal.com profile] storydivagirl.
Characters: Rogue/Bobby, Magneto, Wolverine, John (Pyro)
Prompt: 44. Mask
Rating: PG13
Length: medium
Brief summary: Movie Night at Xavier's School is not fun at all for Rogue. It's a time for her to reflect (and, dare I say it, angst?) over how she can try to be normal and have Movie Nights with her boyfriend, but won't ever be a normal teenager because of her skin mutation. Excellent look at Rogue's thoughts inside her head.

Bobby whispered in her ear, “It looks like it’s going to be Titanic again.”

She groaned. There was something horrifying about gripping loss forced into a cheesy three-hour movie. She meant to reply, but panicked when Bobby scooted closer. She tried to create some space, but there was nowhere to go and Bobby gave her that look that said it would be okay, that this was what boyfriends did with girlfriends no matter how untouchable they were.
