Feedback: Marius and "The Enemy Within Part 2"

[deathpixie]

Well, what a lot of reading treats to find after my adventures at the doctor's office.

These two logs about Marius' ill-fated night out just blew me away. Most of all, this part of the first log:

In that moment a hundred thoughts poured through Marius' mind. That this was how Jay must have felt when Tommy was beating him -- that this was what Tommy must have felt when he was being beaten -- that people like Clarice and Mr. Wagner risked things like this every day just by walking down the street as they were -- a hundred thoughts or more that all trickled down to one simple thing:

I get it. I get it now.

That just floored me. A wonderful encompassing of Marius' way of thinking and the awful epiphany of realising his vulnerability as a mutant. The whole piece was such a perfect capturing of the character of Marius, covering things that have been hinted at but haven't been able to be stated. I adore that first log.

And then "The Enemy Within." Awesome stuff, brilliantly written. The scene between Charles, Moira, Cain and Cyttorak especially illustrated the desperate choice Cain has to make and left me waiting eagerly for the next part.

People? You all rock, so very much.
