Charles/Erik, Bookshop AU poptartmuse June 9 2011, 04:15:29 UTC
Because every fandom needs one.

Option one: dueling used bookstores, run by Erik and Charles. They each send various scouts (Raven, Azazel, etc.) to check out the competition, only to find that the competition is not only hot, but also incredibly fond of Gatsby and the Lost Generation. Cue blind dates/book swaps/attempting to out-recommend the other, with a happy ending (perhaps a store merge?).

Option two: Erik is the disgruntled customer, and Charles is the bemused, far-too-smart-to-be-normal bookshop owner. Charles makes recommendations, Erik scoffs at them but secretly enjoys them. Eventually they fall in love and everyone has hearts in their eyes.

"Charles. Seriously, Charles."

Charles looked up from his comparison charts (out-of and back-dated stock; reorganising the shelving for optimum sales oppurtunity; profits and loss based on previous orders around the holiday season) to see Raven leaning around his office doorframe in what she probably thought was (reasonably) surrepticious; Charles thought that she should really be old enough by now to know that hanging into a room by your fingertips didn't really allow you to blend in.

"What, Raven?" He rubbed a thumb against the groove between his eyebrows. It had been a long day already, and he still had several long hours ahead.

"There is the cutest guy in the shop." She beamed at him, practically sparking ( ... )

"You might want to try this," Charles said, pulling Brave New World off the opposite shelf. The man whipped around so fast Charles was amazed that he didn't crick his neck. "If you liked Zamyatin."

The man glanced down at the book in Charles' outstretched hand, and quirked an eyebrow at it. "I cannot buy that," he said, eyes flicking up to meet Charles' gaze. "The language is filthy."

Charles grinned, delighted. "Not as bad as Fanny Hill," he said, cheerfully. "Am I to assume you've already read this, then?" He twitched his wrist, indicating the book.

"No," the man said, shaking his head firmly. "I was once subjected to Crome Yellow, which was more than enough, thank you."

"But this," Charles pressed, still smiling; and fairly certain that he caught a glimmer of amusement in the other man's eyes to match his own, "is a seminal piece of English literature ( ... )

The adorable in this is going to reach EPIC proportions, I can tell. I mean, the boys are already being adorable, and we're not even at the single parent/actual wooing/nerdy bookishness part yet. I'm getting the warmest and fuzziest of feelings.
