So. The chess game scene, wherein Charles says "Listen to me very carefully, my friend. Killing will not bring you peace." He seems very very certain of this. Now, you might interpret this as Charles' lighter, more positive nature and/or naivite. But... is it the voice of experience? Who did Charles kill, and why, (and how old was he) that he it won't help?
an: only watched the download of the movie around an overexcited five year old wanting my attention so i probably fucked up movie!canon but screw it, i just want to write it real quick, and next part coming in the next day or so. tell me if it sucks, yo.

He will never tell this to Raven:
But there is, once, a man and a thought and a moment of panic one night because he feels it so clearly that he can feel sweat-slicked skin in his grip and Raven’s shape under his body.
Charles is young but seen too much that no one shows and then there is the panic.
An accident in the alley moments later when Raven is still sitting at their table and then whimpers and twitches and a brain that seems to be splintering inside the poor bastard’s (the son of a bitch, the monster, the only ones who can imagine such things know because they’ve felt it already) skull as the man drops like a weight to the damp cement
( ... )
No, they come first from survival, need, dependence on no one but herself- and later, much later, they come from her brother (what he is, what she already wishes she had never let him become) and from his eyes staring wide at her from behind the pile of blankets.
A moment of wariness and then she knows something, sees the glint of raw nerves behind his eyes before he removes her from his sight, closes himself from her utterly
( ... )
OP wishes to marry this fic.

Because I am unable to texturally render my love satisfactorily, oh writer, have my immediate knee jerk reactions instead: Ooh, Charles is so vulnerable and wracked and guilty and hurting. And Eric decided Charles doesn't understand! And Raven's silence is "for now" !!! And I'm running out of exclamation marks!!!!
an: the man wanted cuddle tiem. and to go see it in theaters with me because i snuck off and watched it without him before. so i'm sorry for the wait, dear. but fwiw, this fill’s been outlined and will have a few more parts and, uh, if it’s not obvious yet, it’ll end up an au. but not exactly an au. even while indeed being an au.

Erik wants to sleep, to dream of his mother and what she needs, needs sleep for tomorrow

How does Erik find out and how does he react?
(And at what point do they have the hot sex?)

But her later skills do not come from nowhere.
