This is why my sister is the best and you guys can't have her
And I suppose the /b/rony is making himself somewhat acceptable even if he tried to compare Magneto and Sephiroth and was unaware that Magneto and Xavier are always teaming up to fight true evils

P.S. Listening to Yellowcard's album Lights and Sounds and somehow it is totally the soundtrack to Erik and Charles' entire life in every continuity, THE SUM OF EVERYTHING THEY ARE. I challenge you to listen to the album and find one song that does not fit them somehow (although How I Go is more about Erik and his kids and I think most people wouldn't understand Holly Wood Died the way I am understanding it currently).
I probably sound like a newbie shipper so in the interest of defending my hipster cred, I have always been in love with Erik and Charles and a lot of my X-Men fan experience is mourning them (it's just how I do things, I'm a mourner), it's just more intense right now because now suddenly there are a LOT MORE FANS THAT CARE and also for other reasons.
And for those who think their relationship is something scary and terrible that just came out of the movie, what comics have you been reading?! No really I would like to see them, show me some credentials, the whole franchise is about their relationship. You can certainly argue for it being non-sexual but by no means platonic. And it may be that the newer comics are deviating and moving in new directions but there's a good reason the movies returned to the dynamics of their relationship.
P.P.S. If you would like some examples:
Down on My Head - mostly Magneto's regret, can also be Xavier's at times
City of Devils - both of them when apart
Two Weeks from Twenty - Magneto bb. I know it may sound more like Xavier but trust me, I know these things. (Also, note that Xavier is like 500x more likely to send children into combat than Magneto)
Grey - this is probably an obvious one but threw it in anyways. Magneto to Xavier, in any continuity ever (when they're apart).
Words, Hands, Heart - when a tragedy or threat brings them together; either one or the other or both, depending on the situation
How I go - Magneto to his kids; in any time of peace, or retrospective on his life and relationship with them in general
Trying to give examples that are a. not too obvious (like Waiting Game or Rough Landing, Holly) or b. not obvious enough (like Holly Wood Died) and also c. the most awesome but it turns out THEY ARE ALL THE MOST AWESOME, THIS IS TOO HARD, I'M STOPPING HERE YOU SHOULD JUST LISTEN TO THE WHOLE ALBUM
