I was going to save this one for later, to break up all the Iron Man fics, but I'm in the mood for it today, instead. I mentioned I like experimental writing, right?
Fandom: MARVEL COMICS -- X-Men movieverse
Pairing: Rogue/Logan
Length: 1,400

amand_r
Author Website: Master Fic List
Why this must be read:
I love it when fanfic writers push the bounds of prose, of story, and really experiment with things like style and POV and linear time. In this fic,amand_r stretches all of those boundaries, and yet at the same time the writing never becomes mere experiment for the sake of experiment -- the form and the content are inseparable here, exploring the possibilities of what it would be like to be Rogue, absorbing all of those personalities. It's dense and packed with emotion and resonance, and at the same time it's like an abstract sculpture of a story. And no one does second-person like amand_r.
'When we first met,' is his involuntary start, which resembles the fumblings of a young hunter on the safety. He doesn't carry a bowie knife anymore. Cody has three pocket knives: one for weekdays, one for holidays, and one for church. Later, we found that all metals were ours, except aluminum foil. Instead, the literature of life gave us Foil, and that had been pretty damn funny to us, even if not to Charles.
'When we first met,' his finger closes on the trigger, 'I wouldn't have pegged you for a Miller girl.'
'Girl' makes you feel small, tight, wound up, gum hardened on the bottom of a school desk. Cherry gum.
