Summary: Erik Lehnsherr’s mind was a castle, he thought, then dismissed the thought as silly and somehow over-dramatized. But he could not come up with anything better - castle indeed, with the dark corners, the sudden turnings, the hidden treasure-rooms with their guardian dragons. Perhaps the metaphor was less inapt than he had thought. He wanted to roam those corridors for hours, learn the twists and turns, find the minotaurs in that labyrinth and know them too.
Crazy hot fic with wonderful characterization and a very believable build-up.

Content/Notes AU: No Powers, first time, age difference, bottom!charles, outsider POV (for fic #2)
Summary: Raven is six years older than Charles; Charles has never really considered this age difference vitally important in one way or another, except to decide that even if Raven were six years younger than Charles, she would probably boss him around in the exact same way. He doesn’t really think much of the difference between fifteen and twenty-one, until Raven comes home from college for a study weekend with her new best friend in tow, introduces him cheerfully as Erik Lehnsherr, and Charles finds himself falling head-over-heels into a train wreck of doomed lust.
Lovely little series with age difference, and innocent Charles, and sexy Erik, and eventually super hot sex! Loved the alternating POVs with each fic, and the switch up of Raven being the older one was a fun change.

Sort of an Indiana Jones-type fusion that was immesnly enjoyable. I loved the way the canon people and relationships fit really well into this 'verse, and the connection and build-up was really lovely. Hot sex, and a happy ending made this a wonderful afternoon read. :D

It isn’t easy to pursue a relationship with someone you need to play Pictionary with just to chat to, but with a little help from Charles’ telepathy, the two language-barrier lovers are determined to make it work.

In the process, however, he gains an ally and a friend. As Charles finds himself drawn to both Erik and his cause, he must find a way to satisfy both his conscious and his duty, all while separated from his troops and trapped behind enemy lines.
Really wonderful and sexy AU. Loved the tension and connection between the boys here! I will say that this says it's the first fic in a trilogy, but the other two haven't been written and it's been almost two years. This fic ends on a satisfactory note, but there is definitely a lot still to be resolved, just an FYI.

The boy he once knew is Captain Lehnsherr now and they are as known to one another as strangers, and yet--Charles finds that eight years has done nothing to diminish the feelings he had when he was 16 and in love.

There are two different futures to build, and Erik and Charles will always be separated by their principles. But when Charles is kidnapped and the X-Men can't find him, Erik will get him back no matter the consequences.
Meanwhile, trapped alone in his mind for the first time in his life, Charles comes face to face with the truth about what and who he wants. When convictions stand in direct opposition to the heart, which will prevail?

Really wonderful fic that basically follows along First Class, with the addition of accidental bonding! I loved how the bond is portrayed here and how it affects their growing emotions. The ending is gorgeous and a bit heartbreaking (because it really does follow First Class canon pretty closely), but it felt all the more realistic for it, and it's certainly more promising then how First Class ends in canon!

Charles knows that Erik has always loved him, and intends to use this knowledge + sex to seduce Erik away from his ideals in his youth. There's no way this well-thought-out, sensible, debugged and 100% bulletproof plan can possibly go wrong.
Really cool set of fics that have Charles going back in time when he first met Erik and seducing him for the greater good. Interesting, and funny, and sexy reads!

Erik Lehnsherr's name has been drawn to compete as an alpha tribute and he is set solely on survival, but he hadn't exactly counted on Charles, the mysterious omega tribute that isn't playing by any of the rules. Hunger Games AU.
I've read a lot of Hunger Games fusions in multiple fandoms, but I think this might be my favorite. I love how the a/b/o dynamics are woven into the story, it give it a really unique perspective. All the characters were incorporated brilliantly and the relationship between Charles and Erik was just wonderful.

Crazy hot fic that takes place during the mutant-finding road trip in First Class. I loved how Charles really struggled with coming to terms with his sexuality, which isn't something I've read a lot of, but makes sense for the time period.

But as it turns out, learning to be among people again isn't easy -- and his relationship with Erik is perhaps the most complicated of all.
Lovely fic that's sort of an AU of the Tough Little Baby Telepath AU Series, though you definitely don't need to have read that one to understand this. But I recommend them both, because they're just delightful. I loved the age difference here and the living together and how the love and trust developed between them both. Gorgeous fic.

God this was just such a beautifully written story.

All that changes, however, when he meets Dr. Charles Xavier. Handsome, intelligent, capable, kind, an Omega level telepath, and one of the best pediatricians in the state, he's everything Erik didn't know he was looking for. But he's also Lorna's pediatrician which means, of course, he's off-limits. Except how is Erik supposed to try and forget his crush when he and Charles keep running into each other as if fate is trying to tell them something? When, as Charles says, they seem to want the same thing?

Summary: He had been following Xavier's career for years. He had read and reread and reread again everything the man had written. He had tried, on more occasions than he could count, to recruit Xavier into the Brotherhood, but each request for a meeting had been denied. Aside from his work, no one knew anything about Xavier. Not what he looked like, not the full extent of his power--though from what little they did know, he was by far the most powerful telepath in existence--and not what his intentions were.
The man was a recluse. As far as Magneto knew, Xavier had never once stepped foot outside his impenetrable Westchester manor. And now he was scheduled as the keynote speaker for the largest pro-mutant conference in the world.
Truly wonderful fic with a wheelchair-bound, reclusive Charles, and a slightly less fanatical Erik. I loved watching their relationship grow and develop and the whole thing felt like a very believable alternate course of events. Everybody was wonderfully characterized and I liked how the canons were blended and slightly altered to fit in this AU. The chemistry was lovely between Erik and Charles, and I haven't read many fics that have Charles in the chair, but it was so beautifully done here.

Summary: "Good God, Erik thought. The Prince of Wales is gay."
Charles lives in the unceasing glare of the public spotlight, yet keeps his sexual orientation a closely held secret, afraid he could lose his throne and force his deeply troubled younger sister into a role that would crush her. Erik, journalist and world traveler, has been a loner most of his life; he has little patience for closet cases. But a chance meeting in Kenya brings these two opposites together and sets in motion a love affair that will challenge the British monarchy -- and their most deeply held beliefs about who they are, and who they should be.
God this fic is just so freaking amazing!!! Loved how on point the characterizations were for both Erik and Charles and how seamlessly everybody was incorporated into this AU. The relationship development was perfectly paced and chemistry between them was just mind-blowing. Plus crazy hot switching sex! There are also several other small fics and oneshots in the verse.

Summary: Duke Erik Lehnsherr of Ironhold needs an omega to carry on his line, and Earl Charles Xavier of Westchester needs an alpha to give him the political leverage he needs in order to make his sister Queen. An arranged marriage brings them together, but Erik's lust for war and Charles' hidden agenda threaten to tear them apart. In the frozen Northlands of Ironhold life is hard and cold, and both Charles and Erik must give up their pretense and see each other as they really are: perfect for each other, if only they'll acknowledge it.
Seriously AMAZING historical fantasy omega!verse AU with Charles and Erik having an arranged marriage, advantageous to each for political reasons. The world building was really fantastic here, as were the characterizations. Fabulous plot, searing chemistry, and honestly just a really wonderful read. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time, unable to stop reading yet not wanting it to come to an end.

Summary: Teenage telepath Charles Xavier takes a job as a consultant, working with prickly police detective Erik Lehnsherr. Charles is used to being on his own and taking care of himself; he has no reason to think that his relationship with this stern, icy man is going to change any of that. (Also known as: Tough Little Baby Telepath.)
Really fabulously written AU with Detective Erik and consultant Charles. I loved the characterizations here and the age difference worked really well. The whole thing was just a delight to read.

But he could not come up with anything better - castle indeed, with the dark corners, the sudden turnings, the hidden treasure-rooms with their guardian dragons. Perhaps the metaphor was less inapt than he had thought. He wanted to roam those corridors for hours, learn the twists and turns, find the minotaurs in that labyrinth and know them too.

Summary: Raven is six years older than Charles; Charles has never really considered this age difference vitally important in one way or another, except to decide that even if Raven were six years younger than Charles, she would probably boss him around in the exact same way. He doesn’t really think much of the difference between fifteen and twenty-one, until Raven comes home from college for a study weekend with her new best friend in tow, introduces him cheerfully as Erik Lehnsherr, and Charles finds himself falling head-over-heels into a train wreck of doomed lust.
Lovely little series with age difference, and innocent Charles, and sexy Erik, and eventually super hot sex! Loved the alternating POVs with each fic, and the switch up of Raven being the older one was a fun change.

Handsome, intelligent, capable, kind, an Omega level telepath, and one of the best pediatricians in the state, he's everything Erik didn't know he was looking for. But he's also Lorna's pediatrician which means, of course, he's off-limits. Except how is Erik supposed to try and forget his crush when he and Charles keep running into each other as if fate is trying to tell them something? When, as Charles says, they seem to want the same thing?

He had tried, on more occasions than he could count, to recruit Xavier into the Brotherhood, but each request for a meeting had been denied. Aside from his work, no one knew anything about Xavier. Not what he looked like, not the full extent of his power--though from what little they did know, he was by far the most powerful telepath in existence--and not what his intentions were.
The man was a recluse. As far as Magneto knew, Xavier had never once stepped foot outside his impenetrable Westchester manor. And now he was scheduled as the keynote speaker for the largest pro-mutant conference in the world.
Truly wonderful fic with a wheelchair-bound, reclusive Charles, and a slightly less fanatical Erik.

Erik, journalist and world traveler, has been a loner most of his life; he has little patience for closet cases. But a chance meeting in Kenya brings these two opposites together and sets in motion a love affair that will challenge the British monarchy -- and their most deeply held beliefs about who they are, and who they should be.
God this fic is just so freaking amazing!!! Loved how on point the characterizations were for both Erik and Charles and how seamlessly everybody was incorporated into this AU. The relationship development was perfectly paced and chemistry between them was just mind-blowing. Plus crazy hot switching sex! There are also several other small fics and oneshots in the verse.

Summary: Being a mob boss' associate has its ups and downs. Having sex in the back of a limo on Valentine's Day is definitely one of the ups.
Really fantastic AU with Erik as a mob boss and Charles as his professor boyfriend. The world-building is really fantastic here, and I loved how in-character everybody felt. The connection between Charles and Erik was amazing, and it's rare that an established relationship AU so completely grips me, but this one was fantastic!

Summary: Duke Erik Lehnsherr of Ironhold needs an omega to carry on his line, and Earl Charles Xavier of Westchester needs an alpha to give him the political leverage he needs in order to make his sister Queen. An arranged marriage brings them together, but Erik's lust for war and Charles' hidden agenda threaten to tear them apart. In the frozen Northlands of Ironhold life is hard and cold, and both Charles and Erik must give up their pretense and see each other as they really are: perfect for each other, if only they'll acknowledge it.
Seriously AMAZING historical fantasy omega!verse AU with Charles and Erik having an arranged marriage, advantageous to each for political reasons. The world building was really fantastic here, as were the characterizations. Fabulous plot, searing chemistry, and honestly just a really wonderful read. I was on the edge of my seat the entire time, unable to stop reading yet not wanting it to come to an end.

Really fabulously written AU with Detective Erik and consultant Charles. I loved the characterizations here and the age difference worked really well. The whole thing was just a delight to read.
