X-Men First Class: "On Luck"

They barely said a word to the man in the bar, but Charles was unsurprised that he lingered on Erik's mind for a while afterwards.

Mid-movie. Spoilers for a certain cameo. No warnings.

.on luck.
( For once, Charles was not the only one whose powers would have told him that there was something different about this man. )

Oh, bravo. I love this. I love the tie in, Erik's thoughts are dead on, and eisarseaopdfkvjlawer~!@#$!!! I'm not really sure what else to say. Perfect character voices too.

This was lovely! I didn't even consider that Erik might have wondered about the adamantium, interesting.

Wonderful short fic :) Favourite lines:

An extremely accurate portrayal of Erik and that line is both chilling and beautiful in the way Charles will do whatever it takes to protect others and Erik himself. Very powerful!
