BRAVO.

The symmetry here is lovely, very very lovely. All the while Erik is thinking of Charles and what Charles could be capable of, he is demonstrating his own immense powers effortlessly. I am enthralled by the image of Erik walking through a bullet "asteriod" field in the dead of night, which nothing but moonlight reflecting upon the metal of the bullets. And of the latent emotion in the scene, particularly as he realizes what steep price he would be asking of Charles (a soul price, if you ask me) were he to request Shaw's destruction at the hands of his friend.

So, bravo!

Oh, Erik, Charles. You damn idiots. *shakes head* Honestly, kids. You're going to end up together, whether you like it or not!
