RestlessIt takes less than a second for the world to go from normal to completely, gut-wrenchingly wrong. Gravity spins out in every direction but down, and the peaceful calm that had been his only moments earlier is replaced with a horrifying sense of inevitability

"I'll refill it for you in a minute. And get a towel for the spill." Hank tries a smile, and if Charles had thought the claws were frightening he clearly has no words to describe for the curl of Hank's lip, or the sharp, deadly looking teeth which hide behind it. But then Charles sees Hank's eyes, and they're so nervous, so concerned, so damned gentle, that Charles can't help but laugh at the ambiguity

Thank you! They're such lovely boys, aren't they? :)
Charles/Hank is my not-very-secret-at-all OTP!
It's one of the hardest OTPs I've ever had though, because no one writes for them! There doesn't seem to be a lot of reader interest either, which is a terrible shame. But yes, I am hoping to write some more stuff for them eventually.

OP here. This is just gorgeous, and exactly the sort of thing I was hoping for. I love how simple and realistic the breaking point is, and the way you write them as tentative with one another (the stuff about Hank being unused to physical contact) and then finding comfort together was warm and lovely. I also really liked the understated conversation between them at the end. Thank you so much for filling my prompt!

I think my teeth just rotted from the fluffy-ness that is this prompt.
I love it.

Would you ever be up to writing some Charles/Hank? I love the way you write them and they're my super sekkrit OTP. :-)
