Thank you very much for the lovely feedback! I have such a weakness for family and team!fics. Kinda wanted to write more of the kids, but the story had to stay focused on Erik and Charles. So glad you enjoyed it!

I came here to spray love all over this story just to make sure I praised it as thoroughly as I can. What a gorgeous, well realized adventure!

LOL thank you very much, I'm flattered you like it so ♥ Hopefully I'll have time to write more in this 'verse.

This is freaking awesome. I have an odd fondness for modern AU's in this fandom and I loved this one especially. I adored all the interactions and banter, loving Raven's snark especially. It's probably wrong how much I enjoyed seeing Erik suffer in a normal day job, it's a miracle no one has been stabbed with random metal objects.

Also the image of Azazel running along rooftops holding a camera with his tail is highly entertaining to me.

I love modern AUs too! My writing tends more towards angst, especially with the sort of canon that XMFC has, so I deliberately set out to write something fun and light, and I'm really glad that you enjoyed it. Yay Raven, she's awesome and needs to get more love in this fandom. Heh, I enjoy Erik's frustrations too.

Azazel has a very useful tail and he knows it XD

Thank you very much!

Thank you very much! I basically fused the secret superhero and modern gadgetry of the original X-Men trilogy and the characters plus dynamics of the XMFC gang. So glad that it works for you ♥

Yeah, Erik's restlessness is somewhat inspired by my own :P But that's life for you.

I'd love to write more. Need to focus on my XMFC big bang right now, but I'm hoping to play in this 'verse whenever I need a break from that.

This is such an incredible, rich, funny, sexy, adventurous story, laced all the way through with warmth and love and humour and action - I absolutely adore it! Beautifully-written, as well, with spot-on characterization and incredible dialogue. It's a complete delight to read! Thank you so much for sharing it with us.

Thank you so much! It's a different tone from my usual (my writing tends towards angst if I don't keep an eye on it) so I'm really pleased to hear that it works. It was definitely fun to write :D
