More on X2

And the Bobby/Rogue stuff was more interesting this time around. The kisses in Bobby's house, particularly. Bobby had to pull away from her. I'm not sure that Rogue could/would have broken away in time on her own.

And the first scene with them, where they almost kiss and then she completely ditches him when she hears the motorcycle come up the drive. Not to mention that she slept with the dogtag around her wrist - either that or the reason that she took longer than the other students to get out was because she was saving the tag. Either of which would amuse me.

Still haven't figured out Logan's reaction to Mystique's turn as Rogue. There's an element of "That's too far." in it, I think.

Adored the Pyro/Iceman/Rogue thing. Envy and longing and a touch of resentment from John.

Again, I love the Jean/Phoenix thing. The flirtation with Logan annoyed me this time around, because... Scott is way cool. And she's kissing someone not-Scott. When she's with Scott. I mean, I know that it's Wolverine, but still. Scott is just as cool, in a different way.

How would Jean survive? I guess she didn't go outside in the book.

And that last bit does sound interesting.

No, she gets all Phoenix-power-y with the TK, and fixes stuff from inside. 'S way cool.

And in the movie, they have that thing where her power actually screws with electronics, and thus she couldn't do it while on the plane in the movie.

Is that why she had to go outside? I've only seen the movie once so far, and I guess I didn't catch that.

I think so. At the beginning, she had a headache from the mental noise and all the electronics went on the fritz while she was all with the pain.

That makes sense. Thanks!

I saw above that you're a Bobby/John and Rogue/Logan 'shipper. Have you read the awesome On Love and Lust at Mutant High (http://seperis.illuminatedtext.com/llindex.html) series, by Jenn? If not, you should - it's *fantastic*. It's not really a series, as much as a really long story broken down in to parts, or whatever.

I have, and I totally agree with you. It is fantastic.
