Idle Musings of a Woman at Eighty by Minisinoo (adult)
I've been a bad driver this month, but I want to squeeze in a few more recs before handing over the reins.
Fandom: X-MEN MOVIEVERSE
Pairing: Scott/Jean, Logan/Jean
Author on LJ:
minisinoo
Author's website: The Medicine Wheel
Why this must be read:
Because it's a thoughtful look at Jean's relationship with Scott and Jean's relationship with Logan, viewed with the wisdom and perspective that a long life can bring. The Jean-Scott-Logan triangle is often weighed down so heavily with angst and alpha-male posturing that you lose sight of Jean's motivations, and here they're interestingly and carefully drawn. It's a nice look at how it is possible to love more than one person in a lifetime, although never in exactly the same way.
