helenorvanaAnd I come bearing X-Men recs, also. :P I'm going to try and avoid the big ones everyone else is rec'ing, and bring you some lesser-known fics for your perusal. There will be some recs involving the original trilogy, as well.
A Walk on Part in the War bykyandui
PG-13 | Charles/Erik | ~1,100 | Beach scene AU
It would be completely reasonable for this to have sent Charles over the edge. Perhaps it should have.
I love Charles' feeling of helplessness and desperation in this, and Raven's contribution - so often in beach scene AU's people forget that she wasn't thrown back with the others. Heartbreaking and hopeful at the same time.
Fight the Future by ninemoons42
PG | Charles/Erik pre-slash | ~1,200 | Beach scene AU
This is what happens when they turn back the clock.
Erik just wants someone to tell him to stop - a slightly different take on him in this scene. A short, quiet alternate ending.
Shave and Secure byverizonhorizon
R | Charles/Erik | ~1,400 |
Charles tests the fine points of Erik's control by having Erik shave him – without using his hands.
Shaving leads to sex. As it rightly should.
Control bycitizenjess
PG-13 | Charles/Erik pre-slash | ~2,000 | Post First Class
Magneto gets more than bargained for when he tangles with William Stryker for the first time.
The line "I suppose we'll just spend our lives saving one another from peril," makes my heart ache in light of the events of X2.
Phantom by Penknife
NC-17 | Rogue/Erik | ~700 | Post X-Men
He's just her ghost.
Not all of the personalities in Rogue's mind are female. Masturbation.
Gravity by Penknife
PG-13 | Rogue (Charles/Erik) | ~2,100 | Pre X2
Rogue's learning to live with the weight.
I love the way authors (this one in particular) portray how Rogue interacts with the personalities of those she's absorbed. A quiet moment on a stone bench on a cool day.
POV bysasha_b
PG-13 | Rogue (Charles/Erik) | ~500 | Post X-Men
Rogue and Magneto connected for a long time; she remembers everything.
A look into Rogue's head after the events of First Class.
Jus Ad Bellum byseperis
NC-17 | Rogue, Carol Danvers, X-Men (Rogue/Logan) | ~157,000 | Post X-Men
Rogue slips into an alternate universe where Magneto's machine worked.
WARNING: graphic depictions of violence, mentions of rape. This is not for the faint-hearted, but you can always trust Seperis to deliver an epic that will engross you and make a point. It's worth the effort, but don't read this lightly. How frighteningly easy it is to do a 180 on your mindset and morals without even realizing.
These are my friends; see how they glisten byzombieboyband
PG | Charles/Erik | WIP | Recruiting Road Trip
On the World Bromance Tour, Charles just isn't his best in the morning.
I love not-a-morning-person!Charles oh so very much. His worry and confusion at the end are perfect, and I'm looking forward to the next part.
