Loose Threads by tinhutlady (R)
Fandom: X-Men Movieverse
Pairing: Logan/Rogue, Scott/Jean, Mystique/Pyro
Author on LJ: tinhutlady
Author Website: tinhutlady
Why this must be read:
This is a re-telling of X2. The plotting is far better and everyone acts ten times smarter than they do in the movie. For example, the mutants actually expect and prepare for an invasion of the mansion. The ending’s quite different as well. This is a terrific action/adventure novel, and a real ensemble piece as well. You are sure to find a favorite character nicely represented. The author also adds several characters who didn’t appear in the movie – Hank, Remy, Sam, and Carol Danvers. There are OCs, but none of them are (gag) love interests.
“Cyclops!” Bobby shouted.
“He only sees or hears what I want him to. That makes me leader now.” Stryker grinned.
“What’s your name, mutant?” asked Miller as he and the four other soldiers entered the cell.
“My name?” Bobby suddenly remembered just who he was and what he could do and he began to stand. “My name is Iceman and I’ll be damned if I let you get away with this.”
… White crystals began to form everywhere and the men closest to Bobby shrieked in pain as they were enveloped in them ... Where the cell once stood was a huge block of ice, with five men trapped in it ... They were all frozen solid. Stryker moved forward and tapped on the stiff surface. He could just make out Miller’s agonized features.
