It's a very interesting au, and I find very "delicate" how you wrote about discrimination, and your vision of the characters and they relationship. I'll hope to see other piece from this 'verse

[thedeepeekay]

Thank you for reading and taking the time to comment, I'm glad you like it and the somewhat understated description of the discrimination works! ...Ah, I might toy with this 'verse some more if inspiration strikes, but I'm not making any promises.

Your hopeful-yet-not-quite-happy-endings are going to be the death of me, woman!!

[thedeepeekay]

*pets* At some point you'll get used to it, don't worry.

That was lovely. I would pay cash money for more in this verse.

[thedeepeekay]

I am flattered, anon! Thank you very much for reading and commenting, I'm glad you enjoyed it.

Oh boy. Endless hugs for Chris! He would identify with what Eduardo's going through better than anyone. God, imagine being 'outed' in the media, as a mutant or otherwise. What a metaphor. Tell me there's going to be a sequel!

[thedeepeekay]

Thank you! Yes, Chris is in the best position to relate to Eduardo here, and there is that theory that mutantship, particularly in X-Men: First CLass with its 60s setting, is a metaphor for homosexuality... I'll have to see if inspiration strikes. This was supposed to be a comment fic after all, that already ended up longer then intended. Again, thank you for reading and commenting, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Finally got to this :D Unfortunately I've been sick but this totally makes things a lot better.

Love it. I love that Mark still looks after Wardo. And of course Wardo's dad had to be a dick. He better be safe! I'm kind of worried Erik will steal him xD

This is to show you my appreciation.

:D

Now you'll have more than just me asking for more ^^ I'm in good company \o/

Thanks for writing and sharing <3

[thedeepeekay]

Eh, sorry to hear that! Are you doing better yet? *sends tea*

That video is slightly disturbing. Just saying. ...Shaw would make a good Jafar though. Possibly while creepily pawing at Erik. Also, Erik would never steal Eduardo! His mutation is too useless. Weather prediction? Honestly? You can't do any less offensive than that. (Of course that is before he is treated to a speech about how his terrorist organisation is a complete management failure. Their current lair is a pigsty, when is the last time he slept anyway, no, he has to take that helmet off for showering, no, really, he has to, he is starting to smell, look, Eduardo is papering the shower walls with tin foil, and does Erik even have a business plan more refined that 'make Azazel teleport into random bank vaults and try not to get caught hiding out in untenanted houses'? Erik might consider granting Eduardo a second mutation of 'in humanly productive motherhenning'. Still not much use in a fight though. Pity.)

...I had a point. But I forgot about it.

...you mean the Bambi eyes isn't a 3rd sekrit power? A la Puss in Boots?

/fandom channel change

I keep doing this to you and I can't help it. I am still sick though so for now I'll blame it on that. Thanks for the tea though for realz I'm drinking this weird herbal stuff. Hope it helps ahaha or I'm just drinking weird herbal stuff???

Mark is clearly the grumpy Shrek who just got his swamp taken over. And mets a trololol talking Dustin. I mean a talking donkey Dustin xD and on the way they meet pink slashDragon Chris who is pink but not a girl got it? Sean is Prince Charming with the crazy godmother D:

Gonna stop right there, thank you very much before I start on a Spiceworld fusion in my head.

[thedeepeekay]

It can't be, we know too many people who are immune to it. He's just really that much of a woobie.

...Scary disapproving King Saverin who disappproves of that oger who is ruining the plans he had for his son (even though that son was horribly disappointing) because no ogre is good enough, when secretly he himself is nothing but scum who cheated his way up and sold his son's future for it.

Also, clearly the Winklevosses are much better Charmings. (They try to tell Eduardo it would be a two-for-one deal. Apparently it doesn't count as polygamy if it's twins, or so they say.)
