Oh wow, wow wow. Thank you so, SO much, this was more than I ever thought it could be, and I loved it to pieces. ♥ The slow progression as they have to learn how to live with each other again was just lovely, and their interactions and the sex were just so in character and well told. My favorite parts would be (in order, because I'm a dork like that):
The ash in the supermarket and when Marie realizes what it is, what a powerful moment. Marie leaving her uniform behind. John convincing himself Magneto's still alive, and the way he breaks down when they find his body, it was such a him thing, the way he's always so stubborn. When they find the radio, because it was such a hopeful moment, it honestly made me tear up a bit. ♥ Finding other survivors was a wondeful touch. And going back into the mansion just to close the circle was amazing, it was a very poignant scene, the same as Marie finding Logan's letter and their conversation afterwards.
In all, I loved it, every bit of it, and I consider myself incredibly lucky for getting you as my writer. Thank you so, so much, and I'll try and check out the rest of your fanfic, because this one blew me away. :))
