>>"He just likes buying presents for people. It makes him feel important," Raven stage whispers to Angel, who snorts.<<

♥!

>>Erik, really, enjoyment serves a purpose as well.<<

WELL THAT SOUNDS HIGHLY DUBIOUS

>>She smiles, but it doesn't reach her eyes, and a rush of sympathy chases away the last of Erik's exhaustion. Charles worries that she's going to run off some night, like she almost took Shaw's invitation. Erik doesn't have the words to tell her that he knows what it is to live in perpetual transition, that flight is easier than having a place to land.

She knows. Charles's voice in his mind is a swirl of emotion: reassurance, sadness, a touch of envy. You're very good with them, you know.<<

I love your Moira so much, but WHAT DO YOU MEAN there is a difference between discipline and obsession?? D:

Of course I wrote about Charles's thesis, what with my expertise on genetics and all. :P

You're the best.

THEIR FACES ♥ ♥ ♥

I think I already quoted like, half my favorite parts to you over chat or squealed over them when you were teasing me with bits of this but OMG I LOVE ALL OF IT. I love Raven and Charles' sibling speak, I love the kids working together, I love EVERY WORD OUT OF MOIRA'S MOUTH and Erik's uneasiness with settling down and Charles' impatience and arrogance and ALL OF IT I LOVE ALL OF IT THANK YOU YOU ARE WONDERFUL ♥

I owe you like, eight fics. As soon as the big bang is done, I promise ♥

There are no words for how much I absolutely, bloody love this! I love the camaradrie between Erik, Charles and Moira the most :D Fantastic job! Possibly the best part was Erik's weaponry speech.

Just...again, fantastic work; I can't say that enough! I love the slight-ish OT3 feeling with Moira and Erik/Charles; it's so wonderful. Great job again!
