ARGH! I have so many mixed feelings about this---on the one hand, THERE IS MORE FIC AND OH GOD IS IT EVER LOVELY!!! On the other hand, my soul was crushed and mended in the duration of this new section...when they got into their fight I was actually like "oh good. They need to fight it out and get it all out in the open" and then the fight took a turn for the heartbreaking and I was like "no...NO! STOP!! TOO FAR!! BOOOOYS!!!!!!!" and then in the end, nothing was really resolved...

I don't know what I want! I see both of their sides---I think if Erik actually vocalized his fears to Charles, Charles would understand both sides too!!! Do I want stryker to do something to Charles so he SEES how creepy he is? Do I want Erik to put aside all of his teen angst and communicate? Well, yes, definitely to that last one...

All I know is that, for certain, I want them to cuddle, and make-out, and be lovely, and go to prom, and be HAPPY for once--COMPLETELY HAPPY, because I'm not sure Erik has been completely happy with Charles since the very beginning--first because he was human, then because of Erik's guilt, then because Charles was a MUTANT, and then Erik's guilt again---And meanwhile, Erik is the ONLY thing in Charles' life that makes him really and truly happy, and so my heart hurts when they fight...

oh geeze...obviously I am full of feelings, but you had to expect it when you came back with this and smacked me over the head with this after your prolonged (but justified) absence!!!

All I can say is more please? and I trust you'll hold my hand and only hurt me a little?

Yeah, I know, I'M SO SORRY. I swear they do finally sort things out, but I haven't quite worked out how all the scenes fit together, so I can't post that bit just yet.

Anyway, I'm so glad there are feelings! And... yeah, I know the prompt asked for happy cuddle times on the couch, but somehow I let them loose in this really scary world and now they're stuck. Poor boys. But, prom! Prom is good, right?
