drive-by update!
I am home! In my house!
I spent a weekend wandering around Manhattan with the always-lovely littledust going to bookstores and places to eat and a show and some parks and wonderful things like that. (We did the Charles Xavier Walking Tour!) And breakfast at Doc's because....yes. And we came up with a million fic ideas and talked about mutants and McAvoy's face and watched AMAZING vids (Charles doesn't Erik survived the Holocaust, as long as he loves him. Which is good, because Erik is afraid that when Charles learns the truth about his past, he'll turn away from him. So that all works out, thankfully.).
It's possible that I now have to write a) a daycare fic where Erik wants to decorate the new house with giant, abstract metal sculptures and turns out to be scarily well-versed in modern art and b) another daycare fic where Charles brings ~*feelings*~ flashcards home from the daycare in an attempt to better communicate with Erik.
(But that's okay because littledust said she'd write me ice skating fic as a reward for finishing secret_mutant matching and I AM WAITING WITH BAITED BREATH [but also with the understanding that she is super busy and has ~*important real life obligations*~, of course] because Charles is shit at it and Erik doesn't understand why he suggested it in the first place and HE THOUGHT IT WOULD BE ROMANTIC OKAY JFC HOW DO PEOPLE STAND ON THESE THINGS LET ALONE MOVE? Anyway. It will be fab, I'm sure!)
I will do a more ~*in depth*~ update later, but it was really, really great and I really needed it and I'm glad littledust came with me because she is pretty great.
I'm going to bed now! I need to finish secret_mutant matching tomorrow and also I have some scenes to write in the big bang (but I'm totally chill about it now that the mods were like, "It's okay if you're not 100% done, we promise!") and also I'm a few days behind on momebie's picture prompts. But I'm not dead, I promise, despite the radio silence :)
