xmfc autism4autism cherik. Erik never masked because he didn't have to and Charles is high masking and thinks that he'll help Erik by teaching him how to do it but Erik calls it bullshit and accidentally teaches Charles how to unmask instead

So there is a possibility of foul play during the poll, not to mention the surge of unknown Magneto votes and the last minute boost of them at the final hour doesn't help, so clearly we need to settle this with an even playing field for just one more day.

Mass Propaganda, Discord sharing, and Promotions are allowed on ALL sides.

A terrible bore!

Do you think he's fine?

[discobirdy]

to make up for the lack of asks for vampire/werewolf/other supernatural creature au recs, please share some of your favorite cherik aus along these lines o rec god?

You know we really went through a period in fandom where werewolf and vampire fics were all the rage lol. Trying to lump them all together would make the post too long so I'm breaking them up and just doing werewolf aus here and will do a separate one for other supernatural creatures.

Also, I did a vampire aus one a while ago but it needs an update. Still the ones listed are amazing and definitely worth checking out!

Here's my previous post with a list of Vampire AUs.

And here are some recs for awesome Werewolf AUs!

Dancing in the Rain by Pangea, velvetcadence

Werewolf alpha Erik found a human pup Charles alone in the forest and took him back to his lair. Erik protected and cared for the boy, though he was barely a mature wolf himself.

A few years passed, Charles grew up so pretty, and Erik was afraid he would miss his kind and go back to them, leaving Erik to be alone again - but Charles stayed and chose to be Erik’s mate.

Skin Deep by manic_intent (series)

Erik happens upon a seemingly abandoned mansion in Westchester during a full moon and finds an insanely clueless werewolf living in isolation.

Tooth and Nail by TurtleTotem

Erik is no longer part of Charles's pack. It's none of his business who he takes as a mate.

Supernatural and the Scientist by Caradee

Charles Xavier is a upcoming geneticist and wildlife biologist who’s next big thesis reveals a little to much about the hidden werewolf community. Now Erik Lehnsehrr is suppose to figure out who it is feeding Xavier the information and put an end to it.

However, things are not what they appear.

Moon Song by ikeracity

When Charles is captured by hunters, Erik and his pack go after him. It turns out there might be some room for redemption left for both of them after all.

Open Season by Caradee

Charles is a adorable omega wolf who has no sense for pack dynamics and wanders on his own. Erik is the exhausted Alpha of the pack who is unfortunately smitten with him. Its hunting season, nothing can go wrong. Right?

More Than All The World (The Werewolf's Tale) by luninosity

An Erik/Charles story very loosely based on Marie de France’s 12th-century French werewolf tale, in which Erik is the man transformed into a wolf (he’ll get changed back by the end, it’s not that kind of story, though they very definitely do fall in love) and Charles is a king and eventually there’s a happy ending. Also, a villain’s nose gets bitten off.

Dear Neighbour Mine by issabella

Charles is a telepathic werewolf living next door to a vampire who favours severe black turtlenecks and metal coffins. 

Of course they have to annoy each other first, before dangerous circumstances bring them together.

Du riechst so gut by ximeria (series)

Charles moves into a new neighbourhood and makes a couple of new friends - most of all Erik and Erik's doberman: Sherman - who's a terrible chatterbox, but Charles wouldn't miss it for the world. He's getting information about his hot neighbour from the closest possible source.

dog days by faerie_ground

My name is Erik Lehnsherr,” the boy says. “I am a werewolf. I killed your brother and father, and took your legs.”

Charles stares at Erik, and Erik looks back, full of wracked guilt, practically skin and bone. “You know,” Charles says after a while, “I really feel like it might be more fruitful to have this conversation when I can look at you without wanting to clutch at my pearls.”

lycanthropy by waitfornight

Come back, Charles.

It’s a beloved voice that whispers in the spaces between what’s left of his human consciousness and the wild and fraying, thornier parts of his mind. He tips his muzzle into the wind to scent the air, smelling the rain and old rot of trees and damp, rich earth. Farther out, much farther, in the village set deep in the valley hidden away by green hills he catches the scent of smoke and sooty ash of a fire that’s been burning on through the night in the hope of keeping him at bay.

On the Scent by dedkake

The full moon is nearing and Charles decides to visit his neighbor.

A Tale of Two Kingdoms by Pangea

Does not ebb by StarkMad

Prompt: "...I would love a fic with Charles and Erik in an Underworld AU basically with Charles as Selene's character and Erik as Michael Corvin's character

and/ooor nonnie could do an Underworld: Rise of the Lycans and Charles as Sonja's character and Erik as Lucian 

A Boy Like That Will Give You Sorrow (The Lions and Lambs Remix) by A (mumblemutter), cm (mumblemutter) In which Charles is 200 years old and Erik is Bella, Jacob and a Shark all at the same time.

Counting Bodies like Sheep (To the Rhythm of War Drums) by cm (mumblemutter)

Erik was born broken, their father always told Charles.

[discobirdy]

I promised my friend @shiv-multifandom-mess in a game that if she successfully named all NFL teams, I’d draw her a cherik sketch for each one.

Needless to say, she managed to do it. So here y’all go. The March of the 32 Cheriks… please enjoy for my mental sanity.

hi gerec! do you have any actor aus?

Hi Anon! I love actor aus!!! Here are some favourites:

The Proper Care of Actors by afrocurl, Clear_Liqueur, Clocks, Etharei (first of a series)

Erik is an A-list action star who is notoriously difficult to work with, until the day he gets cast alongside Charles Xavier, rom-com darling who can charm the pants off movie audiences the world over and apparently even one Erik Lehnsherr. The paparazzi catch them out and about soon enough, and their real-life Hollywood movie romance becomes instant tabloid fodder.

to put the world between us by populuxe

Erik Lehnsherr is one of the hottest actors in Hollywood: fresh off an Academy Award nomination, he’s about to star in HBO’s most anticipated show of the year. And even though online chatter about his recent string of queer roles keeps getting louder, his personal life remains personal—just as it always has, and just as his manager and publicist continue to advise.

But when he winds up at the same wedding as his college best friend, Charles Xavier—and when they quickly fall into bed together—he’s forced to revisit the past he’s been trying to get away from for years. The pull between them has always been magnetic, but so has the weight of secrecy. Can they keep from repeating the same mistakes, or will the price of the truth be too high?

An Exercise in Frustration by ikeracity

Erik Lehnsherr's latest critically-acclaimed film Shame features a full-frontal nudity scene. His long-suffering husband Charles is really very peeved about it.

This Is Not Comedy by baehj2915

Written for amarriageoftrueminds' prompt for a Cherik version of Louis CK's tangent about the fuckability of Ewan McGregor.

Naturally the similarities end there. I made this about Erik's full on public lust-filled gay revelation, and the chaos that spirals from there.

dogbirded by ikeracity Charles has been talking to a guy on the Mutant & Proud dating site for the last two months. He's fairly certain he's being catfished because the guy's profile picture is Erik Lehnsherr, famous actor and A-list celebrity, but he's enjoying their conversations all the same.

Never in a million years would he ever imagine that he's actually been flirting with Erik Lehnsherr, and that Erik Lehnsherr is actually into him. Because that would never, ever happen in real life...right?

Work/Life Balance by pocky_slash (first of a series)

Alex is pretty sure his weird, anti-social boss is a robot. Right up until the guy's adorable husband shows up. His adorable husband who happens to be a famous actor. His adorable husband who happens to be the very same famous actor who was the source of many of Alex's teenage fantasies.

we might just be hollywood material, baby by ikeracity, midrashic (series)

Greenkeep was an American animated television series created by Logan Howlett for Toon TV. The series follows mouse scholar Jess (Charles Xavier); his rival, the otter warrior Miska (Erik Lehnsherr); and their cohort of friends and allies as they fight to overthrow the Kingdom of Crows which has occupied their homeland. It aired for six seasons, from February 2003 to June 2009.

Greenkeep received critical acclaim for its characters, soundtrack, and exploration of complex themes such as war and free will. It was the first significant project of several prominent actors, including Sean Cassidy, Alex Summers, and Raven Darkhölme, and is also known for its role in introducing Academy Award-winning actor Charles Xavier and his now-husband, director and producer Erik Lehnsherr. A Very Special Episode by winterhill (part of a series)

“The Secret of Dragon Ranch” is the first prime-time gay cartoon to be made specifically for children’s TV, and Erik wants in. The last person he’s expecting to see when he shows up for work is Charles Xavier, and given how badly they parted, he’s going to take this chance to mend things between them. Warnings for homophobia, some ableism. Stand-alone companion piece to "The Secret of Dragon Ranch", with no particular reading order necessary.

Brought to You by Professor Smut by Sophia_Bee

By day Charles is a professor of English Literature. When he goes home, he becomes Professor Smut, a fanfic writer who is obsessed with the BBC drama Bent. Erik Lehnsherr is the actor who plays John Bent. One day his agent makes him aware there is this entire world on the internet of people obsessed with his TV show and the relationship between John Bent and his partner, played by Sean Cassidy, Kennedy Watson. Against his better judgement, he checks out some of the fanfic. He finds Professor Smut and moved by his portrayal of John Bent, becomes his biggest fan.

The Thing that Happens between Us by stlkrchck Charles is an actor and media darling. Erik is a grumpy photographer.

A September as Sunny as Spring by Black_Betty, ikeracity, keire_ke Charles Xavier was part of a famous vaudeville act before an accident cost him his career and his ability to walk. He's pulled together a new life as a musician in Hollywood, but is finding it difficult to navigate his feelings for his old friend and partner, Erik Lehnsherr, the most sought after matinee idol of their generation.

Famous film duo Frost and Lehnsherr are two of the most well-known and admired mutants in the public eye, having built their fame and fortune on silent film blockbusters.When the rise of the new "talking pictures" phenomenon threatens all their careers, they must band together to try to prove that their days of stardom are far from over.

Most people who ask for recs aren't really interested in any pairings outside of cherik, but if you are, here's one I wrote for Xavierine (with background cherik) :D

From Lovers to Friends and Back Again by Gerec

Logan Howlett meets Charles Xavier on one of his first real auditions, for a T.V. series about World War II. Charles gets a part; Logan does not. They also agree to go out on a date.

Somehow it takes them ten years to make it happen.
