Oh, man -- I'm in the midst right now of reading those old issues where Kitty's still having adolescent freak-outs over Ororo's mohawk, so this is even more awesome. *g*

I love the way you reference her history and childhood, because it really drives home just how much of Kitty's life has been growing up an X-Person, the years and years she's had to develop layers of complication regarding Emma. Your voice for her is just right, a grown woman in the place where she was once a child, dealing with inappropriate sexual feelings. There's so much going on here that I can hardly parse it all.

And the bit about her waking up and finding herself having phased through the bed or through the floors -- fantastic. Just right to drive her intangibility and sense of lack of control home.

Wonderful stuff, and thanks for posting it!
