(rambling thoughts ahead)

Ooo, lots of interesting ideas in this. How Raven and Penny have plans and how Charles' decision to just 'see how it comes' means that he gets caught up in them, so that it's not just his telepathy that means he goes along with the flow, but that fact that he like making people feel good (which is so Charles) and the plans of other people, how you can get swepy along. Realistic touches with the bra and it not lasting long. And interesting how for Raven and Penny it's about moving on for college and 'the right choice' for that, wereas Charles is disappointed not because it wasn't necessarily a good first time or because his expectactions didn't match the experience, but because his expectations didn't measure up to those of his partner. Takes two (or more) to tango, right?

Hopefully I'm being coherent - bit tired tonight, but didn't want to wait to read the first fic of the challenge :D And I'm glad I didn't. Good stuff! Thank you :D

You are being coherent and I'm glad you liked it. As soon as I read the prompt I thought about how Charles would end up being swept up and then disappointed at how various feelings might not match up.

Awww, ouch!! But very beautifully done. It was easy to get lost in Charles' experience like he was.

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yes, he's good at getting lost in emotion.
