R3, Everyday Love in Stockholm - Human!Charles all cooped up tahariel December 31 2011, 10:59:44 UTC
Prompt: Magneto is the ruler of the posthuman world.

His only secret? Charles Xavier, the human he's kept locked in his bedroom ever since his right-hand woman, Mystique, came to him pleading for mercy for her stepbrother, who accepted her mutant form and protected her as a child. The human he started fucking after Mystique was killed in battle, despite the guilt he feels at contaminating even this last promise to the woman who was integral to his life's work and happiness.

Everyday Love in Stockholm will continue from this post once Round Three fills up. Hope it's okay to put a placeholder here, mods!

I'm glad it helped - I want you to be able to enjoy reading it, even if you still find some bits hard. And there's nothing wrong with you for being triggered. God knows we all have things which upset us. For instance, there is no way I'm going to see George Clooney in The Descendants, even though I have this sort of morbid fascination with going to see it, because my Mum died suddenly and left my Dad with two teenage daughters, and I can already tell that's going to be like shooting me after stuffing me in a barrel. So :)

I'm really pleased you liked it, anyway, and thank you so much - your feedback means a lot :) I hope you continue to enjoy it (pending all the things that make you upset with Erik, of course!)

Ahahaha, I have a policy where I keep my mouth shut and let you find out for yourself, so I can't help you I'm afraid, but I'm so pleased you liked it :)

I've been following this fic for like a month now and I was always too shy to comment, but this chapter was just so wonderful and amazing and jfkdla. SO MANY... FEELINGS.... ;___; This is honestly one of the best fics in this fandom and you write Erik so well, imo.

Thank you for commenting - it means a lot to me to get comments and feedback from people and know I'm not shouting into the abyss, so it's lovely to hear from you and know you're enjoying the fic. And I'm super flattered and grateful, thank you! I hope you keep enjoying it - let me know what you think, I promise I don't bite (unless you ask me to!) Mostly I just get comments and then flail around my flat like a loser and then suddenly realise how uncool I am and am glad I live alone.

You guys continue to amaze me with all of your lovely comments and kind words - I really do live off them, and I love hearing what you think of the fic, so thank you so much! I value them all immensely :D

Charles loves to sing. It's one of the things Erik always misses, when he's away, across the ocean or the country, it doesn't matter; there is a distinct absence of humming, of half-remembered words and the lovely timbre of Charles' voice as he potters around the apartment, sleeves rolled messily to his elbows, a pen tucked behind one ear where he's forgotten it and feet bare and padding across the floorboards.

Erik doesn't sing. Sometimes he wonders if Charles would turn and smile at him if he joined in, but he never quite does; instead he listens, makes it part of the background of home, a word he is starting to use more frequently now that it seems he is going to be staying in one place for a while.

For a moment, he lets himself think about how it would have been with Raven, had he got there first, before Azazel and before he met Charles. Easier, certainly. There would have been no need to hide and no fear of discovery. They could have lived together upstairs in his apartment, him shaving in the bathroom while she tried on different faces in front of the mirror, different clothes; he would cook, as she was a disaster in the kitchen, and maybe it would have been him she curled up with on long evenings with a magazine or a book, casually disinterested in having personal space. They would have worked together downstairs and everyone would think of them as an inseparable unit, a perfect pair of mutants. Her baby might have been his ( ... )
