WIP Challenge

Tagged by @kimbapisnotsushi!

Rules: Post the names of all the files in your WIP folder regardless of how non-descriptive or ridiculous.

Let people send you an ask with the title that most intrigues them and then post a little snippet of it or tell them something about it! And then tag as many people as you have WIPs. (You can make your own post or reblog this one!)

Uh, so a couple addenda. I have multiple files that include multiple fics in them, and most of those are prompt lists; I won’t be including the prompt lists, but I will be including the multi-fic files that are series. And, I normally don’t tag as many people as specified anyway, but 1) I won’t even be counting my WIPs because it’s a lot, and 2) I don’t even follow nearly as many people as I have WIPs because it is a lot. I’ve been writing fic for almost 8 years now, so my ADHD self has naturally accumulated a ton of unfinished fics.

As usual, I’m tagging anyone who wants to do this!

Now, under a read more, because I really was not lying about there being a lot. They’re separated by fandom in alphabetical order (there are 41 total), and to make it a bit more navigable (at least in the browser; sorry, app-users), they’ll be numbered in the "##.” format.

First Line Meme

Rules: List the first lines of your last 20 stories (if you have less than 20, just list them all). See if there are any patterns. Choose your favorite opening line, then tag 10 of your favorite authors!

Hey @applesfallingfromblondehair, thanks for the tag love!! likewise i dont usually do this but this feels interesting so lets see if my ass has improved over the last few stories lmfkjgjk

also this will prob be a mix of xmcu fic + kingsman fic bc i think i have a more or less equal number of fics written for both

1.

The first time Charles meets Lucifer Morningstar, actual devil from hell, ruler of the underworld, fallen son of the lord above and god knows what else, it had been after Erik had been sentenced to life imprisonment in the highest security cell in the Pentagon. 

- this is from a professor and a devil walk into a bar, which is kinda a crossover rarepair fic that rose out of me and mutuals on twitter discussing tom ellis and james mcavoy being roommates and kinda... devolved from there. i am proud of this one lmfnjgkj

2.

“Are you okay, Professor?” Hank asks quietly.

Charles blinks. He supposes it’s a valid question. He’s been in a bit of a funk the past few days- scratch that actually, the past few years. He’s just lost so much- his father, and then his mother’s love, and then Raven and Erik and Sean and countless others. Building a school, gaining students he loved to teach and nurture hadn’t helped him in the slightest, and he’s as lost as he ever was, wandering the halls of a drafty mansion alone, feeling like he’s been stranded at sea even whilst surrounded by people.

- from in the belly of the beast, which again came out of me wondering what would have happened if fox had gone w their original plan and charles had been that last horseman instead of erik. this story will prob gain a sequel... sometime in the near future when im not too bogged down by current wips

3. 

The Xavier family hall of the deceased- because of course they’re weird enough to have a cemetery- is full of rows upon rows of holograms. Charles is four and gets bored of his father crying over his mother’s hologram, so he toddles over to the other rows. Unfamiliar names, all of them- Charles is young, and he doesn’t understand death. He doesn’t even know who his mother is, who’d died at childbirth and left him with a father still at a loss when it came to bringing up a kid.

- from tequila on a spaceship, the sequel to a fic that still has some people angry at me i think. this fic never did gain as much traction as the first one but im still proud of it esp since it discusses certain themes of reincarnation that ive always wanted to see explored for myself in reincarnation aus (and i only ever saw it in danveresque’s reincarnation au)

4.

There are cork boards covering every inch of the wall. Red strings, photographs, conspiracy threads, everything. Raven takes it in, swallowing, noticing the picture in the middle.

It’s one of Charles, when he’d been in university. His final year- he'd just been done presenting his year- end project, his fringe a tumbled mess and a bright smile on his lips. Erik had taken the picture, Charles scurrying to his side once he’d been done and demanding to look at the image, his tongue poking out the corner of his mouth. He looks like how Raven had always imagined him to be.

“He wouldn’t want this,” she finally says, turning to look at Erik.

- from tequila on a beach, the first fic to the fic above. this fic is v special to me because i actually wrote this on a spiral after having a very tough visit with one of my parents in the hospital after a surgery for organ removal to prevent the onset of cancer. its simpler than my other fics yet i think more powerful because of what happens. also i think the first time i killed charles off lol (spoiler alert). also idk if ppl were aware of this but this is called tequila on a beach precisely bc charles and erik were tipsy from tequila at a frat party and then went to a beach. its the way they first met (and will continue to meet for all their next lives)

5. 

Erik doesn’t know how it all started. Maybe it was when his insane sergeant had started rambling about imaginary cities, treasures of gold and cursed incantations. Maybe it was when trickles of rumours had started pouring down about the higher ups wanting to investigate unfound territory, disregard the Egyptian government’s feelings on the matter, and put a previously unfound myth on the map for all the world to see. Or maybe, Erik thinks, it was when archaeologist Klaus Schmidt put a bullet through his mother’s head and he ended up going to America armed with dual citizenship and the sole intent of wanting to drive a coin directly between Schmidt’s eyes, joining a division of the American military focused solely on guarding archaeological digs- more importantly, in Egypt, where Schmidt’s interest had shifted.

- from courting the end of the world, another one i’m just insanely proud of! this is the first time i’ve ever attempted a multichapter movie au and it actually managed to work pretty well, i at least haven’t run out of inspiration for it yet lmfjgjg. also erik as himbo rick connell... very rent free in my head

6. 

The day after they murder Shaw and leave his house of horrors, Erik crosses the Canadian border with Charles across his back. Charles had started getting tired while they’d been walking, stumbling and nearly tripping until Erik had forced him to get on his back, ignoring Charles’ protests.

The blood’s seeping out steadily from Charles’ nose, staining his shirt and soaking it through. It’s been leaking on and off, and the effects are already obvious in the dark circles beneath Charles’ eyes. Any more, and Erik knows they’ll have to find him a doctor. He hopes the nearest town in Canada has one that would be willing to treat them.

- from a world built for two. i actually dk where the inspiration for this came from, i think i was once again on a depressive spiral and wanted to break my comfort characters into pieces and put them together again. this also deals with codependency and unhealthy coping mechanisms as a result of trauma which i showed as sweet in the fic but i would def not recommend in real life. pls if u relate to either charles or erik in this go see a therapist

7. 

The call comes in the afternoon, an hour before Charles is supposed to teach his Intro to Genetics class. Frowning, Charles abandons the game of Candy Crush he’d admittedly been playing rather badly and picks it up. “Charles sp-”

“We need you, Prof,” Kitty says desperately into the phone. “He’s been in a temper all morning, and then Alex’s reports missed out a whole subsection, so he’s fired the entire marketing team! Please, Professor, you have to come immediately!”

- from and we can be pirates. i wrote this in like 4 seconds for my friend who wanted professor charles and ceo erik and actually did not expect this to gain the attention it did... its always the fics u write in like 4 seconds lmfjggj. a sequel for this Is coming too probably at some point in the very far future

8. 

Charles Xavier can admit as he sits across from Essex, hands cuffed to the desk, that in hindsight, this had perhaps not been one of his better ideas.

He refuses to admit it as he controls Erik’s mind, preventing him from lashing out and making him close his eyes to the nightmare unfolding in front of him. He refuses to admit it as he gets shoved into the back of a black pickup truck, and the butt of a gun is smashed across his forehead hard enough to knock him out cold for a few hours. He refuses to admit it when he wakes up what appears to be hours later in a cold interrogation room, hands cuffed to the table in front of him, with a suppression collar rendering his mind dark and almost achingly silent.

- from from the land of gods (bring me home). i’ve been struggling w this fic a lot (it didnt come as easily to me as the first one did) but its getting there. also i put charles through hell in this rip sorry mister xavier

9.

In the aftermath, both of them stand at the border of the mansion. The air feels frigid, slicing into Raven’s lungs like a thousand paper cuts. “Charles, please,” she begs, heart in her throat and voice hoarse. “He wouldn’t want you to be like this. He wouldn’t want you to do this. It’s not too late, you can come back.”

Charles gazes back, a brick wall. He hasn’t even cleaned up, still in that damnable yellow and blue suit with blood drying in the corners of his mouth, the bridge of his nose. There’s nothing in his eyes- blank, almost see through. He looks as if he’s a mere shade, a ghost lounging about where he once was. Raven knows better.

“I will raze the world to the ground,” he finally says, his voice free of any inflection, “and when I’m done, no one will be left standing. Not you, and certainly not me.”

- from where all the poets went to die, a dark fic based on what would have happened if moira had killed erik with the bullets. its the first time ive written dark charles and it was v fun if im being honest

10. 

Charles is a light sleeper. It’s a trait that stays with him- all the way from his father and the tests to taking care of his mother to Cain Marko and his fists to Cuba and then now, the dust of Washington settling over him and making the waking world lie an inch beyond his eyelids. It therefore stands to reason that the second the windowsill creaks he’s up in a shot, hoisting himself up and lashing out with his telepathy instantly.

That’s not a trait that had stayed with him. That’s a newly formed trait, bitter and bold, carved into existence by Cuba by his students disappearing one by one in Vietnam by the letters that announce Sean’s death in black unfriendly print by-

The tendrils of his telepathy forged cold and distant meet a barrier and recoil, stunned. He focuses his eyes and then widens them, staring at Erik who stares back, hidden beneath that infernal muddied magenta helmet of his. They stare at each other for a moment before Erik clears his throat.

- from in the valley of kings (you will come home). my first ever cherik fic! im actually also proud of this one even if i ended it horribly and half my mutuals refuse to read it bc of how it ended LMFJGJGJ. i cant believe this was supposed to be a funny and cute kid fic and then i turned it into an angst ridden mess. also leo is actually an oc whose adult version is fancasted as charlie rowe by me and another mutual on twitter and im v proud that readers are willing to die for the baby

11. 

Mike has to google it, finding a crafts shop nestled into the corner of the street right smack in the middle of Louisiana, past a long and winding dirt road and the crumbling farmhouses relics of a time long past. The air is hot, humid, sticking to the back of his neck like an unwieldy parasite as he pushes the door of the shop open to the sound of the bell tinkling above.

He finds the origami paper quickly enough and has a momentary breakdown about what Bill’s favourite colour even is- he had never thought to ask him. Twenty seven years of following every single footstep of his like a dedicated, most definitely creepy stalker, three months of more than a few states traversed with Bill’s laughter now echoing in his ears like a shadow that trails after him, and this is what stumps him. It takes ten minutes, but he finally settles on light green.

- my first and last entry into the IT fandom bc i love these two but to be very fair there isn’t much content out there for him (and twitter content actually intimidates me lmfjgjjg) a thousand paper cranes never got much traction either but i suspect its bc i was horrible at promoting it. also i very much love this fic even if it never did that well bc ive always wanted to write a fic like this after watching the movie in cinemas in 2019

12.

ok nsfw i guess 

Mornings start like this- Eggsy snuffling into David’s neck, attempting to work his way back up to wakefulness as David sleeps the sleep of the dead, the streams of morning sunlight gradually lightening up the room. It’s a while before he gets the energy to sit up, pushing an eager V off the bed- V for Vendetta, a kitten named after one of David’s favourite movies that they’d adopted about a month after moving in together- before stumbling to the loo. He’s already in the shower when David comes in, naked as the day he’s born with his arms entwining themselves around Eggsy’s waist as he murmurs a sleep-soft, “Good morning, love,” as he presses a kiss into the two-days-old hickey on Eggsy’s shoulder. His breath smells of toothpaste, the minty fresh kind he insists on buying from Target no matter how much Eggsy insists that the other brand is much better. Without fail, Eggsy always has a split second thought of thinking that he must truly be in heaven because no way can this be his reality, every single day, before sinking to his knees and allowing David’s cock to hit the back of his throat.

- from that’s the kind of love i’ve been dreaming of. i genuinely wish i had an opinion for this but i don’t remember writing this its been way too long

13. 

The first time Eggsy sees her is in Trafalgar Square.

Trafalgar Square is uncomfortably packed on any normal day, but on New Year’s it is quite the hothouse. Sweating armpits and hot bodies plastered against each other, the twinkling lights overhead providing a flash of blue and green and yellow and red, screaming children and giggling teenagers shoving their way through- it’s a recipe for disaster. Eggsy doesn’t know how he ends up there. It happens sometimes- one second he blinks, sequestered in the comfort of his living room, and the next he’s somewhere else, as if he’s been teleported. “Life goes past you,” Tilde had said once, “and you don’t even notice.” Tilde would be right.

- this is a roxy and eggsy friendship centric fic that i abandoned bc i lost my ardor for this world about the same time i got into xmen lmfjgjg. all the king’s horses also had some great fancasts in it with dev patel fancasted too... rip ig

14. 

once again, nsfw

Eggsy, truth be told, doesn’t actually like having sex in bathrooms. First of all, bathrooms generally have an unsanitary air about them. Besides that, the granite of the sinks always feel cold against his hips, there is the ever present fear of being walked in on and unlike what people might say, he actually really isn’t that much of an exhibitionist- and truth be told, he’s never liked the look of himself in the mirror mid coitus.

For David Budd, however, he suspects he might be up for anything.

- from do you ever dream of me. im actually proud of this fic and this series, i never usually write straight up porn or friends w benefits and i think it worked well in here. once again didnt get much traction but that was very of the norm for my kingsman fics lmfjgj

15.

It is on his fifth meeting with the therapist on site that she brings the issue up. The elephant in the room- or the bomb , David thinks morbidly. If asked, he can’t remember specifics about that day now. All he remembers is this- the burn of Julia’s picture in his wallet against his thigh, the Botticelli painting on the far wall and Miss Paulson’s face, severe and unsmiling.

“When you couldn’t reach Julia,” she says, after he finishes describing the feeling of running to Julia, the panic searing his chest as he’d prayed for his legs to work faster so he could do something, anything to reach her hand. “How did that make you feel?”

- from your haunted social scene. i genuinely... do not remember anything about this either helpfkjgjg,,, this has 55 comments tho which. Nice

16.

David brings her home on- in a move far too cliche for it to be reality- a stormy night. It’s in fact storming so hard the windowpanes shudder like leaves in the wind, droplets crashing against the glass in a cacophony so loud Eggsy more than once considers turning the radio all the way up to drown it out. He’d gone scrounging for David’s sweatshirts instead of his own halfway through, wincing intermittently at the flashes of thunder. At a particularly loud one JB had jumped up, squeaked in a very undoglike manner and skidded across the floor to cower beneath the sofa, only coming out when coaxed by Eggsy to do so. Officer Oatmeal had watched the proceedings from her regal place by the armchair, dozy eyed and blinking heavily.

- from a cat named lavender. from what i remember this was also my first try at bringing up trans eggsy

17.

He first appears at the black prince on a cold Monday evening, eyes like Frank Sinatra and lips arresting anyone’s gaze if they weren’t careful enough. He stood out too, clad in a respectable bomber jacket and boots that clicked against the tile rhythmically and loudly, a sort of organised, measured cacophony.

“Go and serve him,” Andrew said, fat and disinterested, seated behind the counter and idly flicking through bills, less than ten percent of which he pays Eggsy. “I’m busy.”

- from trust is left in lovers after all. i never continued this which is sad bc this did get a lot of attention... it was just v hard to keep the story going

18.

It usually rains cats and dogs in London but for some reason, the rain is heavier than usual today. The droplets splatter against the windows in a constant buzzing rhythm, the sound meshing together in a melody not altogether pleasant to the ears. It’s half past five and yet the light has to be kept on because that’s how dark the sky has gotten- thunder rolls like a loud crack, abrupt and deafening, causing Daisy to jump in her seat.

“Just a thunderstorm, flower,” Eggsy says. They’re seated at the dinner table, Eggsy going over her homework while David sits opposite them, hunched over his laptop as he attempts to finish a post mission report. Eggsy is half convinced he gave up ten minutes ago- he’s got his earbuds in and he hasn’t really typed anything in a while, eyes focused on the screen. His eyebrows are scrunched up in a glare that’s too adorable for his own good- and for Eggsy’s.

- from could feel like kryptonite. a lot of my kingsman fics are actually so much happier than my cherik ones... i should prob look into that rip

19.

“When you’re done lazing around you can come in, you dozy dog,” he tells Officer Oatmeal, who butts her nose into his knee. She’s the only one not on a diet in the house, Eggsy deeming her far too healthy and skinny to need one anyway. In fact, she’s under strict instructions by Eggsy to fatten up instead.

Once the animals are done feeding- Eggsy sporting a suspicious scratch on his left forearm- they settle down to eat their scrambled eggs and toast. David’s taken a large gulp of his scalding coffee when Eggsy says, all of a sudden, “So, I have a school reunion.”

- from gonna set this dance alight. don’t remember much about this either tbh

20. (the last one FINALLY)

It isn’t a big event or explosion that makes David realise he wants to see his father’s ring sitting pretty on Eggsy’s index finger. No teary confessions in the rain like in the rom coms Eggsy loves to rent out and sniffle his way through, or a fight that makes David see sense. In the end, it’s breakfast that cinches the deal for him.

The day had started out normally enough. David wakes up at eight like clockwork, the soft downy hair at the base of Eggsy’s neck tickling his nose with his arm locked tight around his waist. He’d yawned, exhausted- mostly because they’d stayed up very late into the night making good use of the bed- before standing up and shucking his shirt off to head for the shower. Eggsy had shifted in his sleep, mumbling something unintelligible, and the sight had been too endearing to resist so he’d bent down, pressing a kiss to his forehead and smiling when Eggsy groaned out loud.

List 5 TV shows make you feel better, then tag 10 other blogs

I was tagged by @famousflowermagazine - thanks so much for the tag, and sorry it took me so long to get to this, lol. 

1. The Good Place

My ultimate feel-good show; the one I can and do come back to over and over when I’m feeling down in the dumps - and it never fails to cheer me up.

2. Brooklyn Nine-Nine

Sometimes you just need to laugh, and nothing is funnier - or sweeter - than B99.

3. New Girl

Awwwww, well, this show is basically the definition of a comfort show - F.R.I.E.N.D.S., but better.

4. Ab Fab

Sometimes you need to laugh, sometimes you need to cry.... aaand sometimes you just need something truly dumb. 

5. Agents of SHIELD

Some of you may be wondering, but wait, why is AoS last on the list of five?? Shouldn’t it be first?? It is, after all, my favourite show in the world, and I make no secret of that.

But the thing is, much as I truly adore AoS... they really, really do torture their poor characters. This gif, for example, looks completely innocent and domestic at a moment’s glance, but in reality, this is moments before the main cast gets sucked up into a time-bending space rock and taken to a dystopian future where one of them is thought to have destroyed the world. Oh, and the nice guy on the right gets left behind. (Yeah... it’s better not to ask.) 

With that said, I do have a list of feel-good episodes that I’ll come back to and watch over and over, ‘cause when all is said and done, this is my favourite show in the entire world, and it does make me happier than pretty much anything else, lol. So here goes:

1x01 - Pilot. The one that started it all, and the one that always gives me SUCH nostalgia because LOOK AT HOW SMALL THEY ALL WERE AHLFLSDHFLSDHFLSJF 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

Actually that goes for pretty much the entire first half of season 1 alskfdjadlkfjlkdsjfksf 😍😍😍

Okay I know I said an episode list but... most of season 2. It’s my favourite season because it’s already so damn good, plus there’s not AS much trauma yet I mean there’s a lot but whooo baby wait for season 4, plus Huntingbird, plus DAISY, plus general The Team Being A Family which I LOVE and can never get enough of.

Special props to The Scene in 2x10, which I have saved onto its own YouTube playlist for sheer awesomeness.

3x08, Many Heads, One Tale. This is just such a COOL episode, and I personally love it because (a) STATICQUAKE BEING PLAYFUL AND FLIRTY!! (b) HUNTER AND BOBBI BEING SARCASTIC AND HILARIOUS ON MISSIONS and, of course, the FITZSIMMONS KISS!!!!!!! 

3x11, Bouncing Back. Tied with Rewind, this is probably my single favourite episode - because all the best characters are there, being badass and hilarious together, and there’s not too much pain. Plus, literally ALL my favourite couples end it on a good place - Fitzsimmons start over and do an adorable fist bump, Coulson and May share a drink, Staticquake kiss and flirt and Mackelena flirt (and are teased by Daisy and Joey.) Basically it’s just the BEST and probably the episode I’ve rewatched the most, lol.

Season 4 is awesome but basically just angst, so no feel-good rewatch moments there, lol. Except maybe Daisy quaking AIDA out of the window. That NEVER gets old, ahahaha.

5x05, Rewind. Oh, this episode is SUCH a fan favourite, but with such good reason!! H U N T E R, everyone. Fitz and Hunter. Enough said. 

5x06, Fun & Games. Well, okay, it wasn’t exactly fun and games, but it had Daisy being badass and a Fitzsimmons proposal and that’s honestly all anyone could ask for.

5x12, The Real Deal. Come on, this episode is the BEST. I mean, yes, it’s truly heartbreaking when everyone finds out about Coulson, but the WEDDING makes up for it every. single. time. The WEDDING, you guys. I have never been able to watch it without getting teary-eyed.

6x03, Fear And Loathing On The Planet Of Kitson. You can say a lot about Season 6, but Ladies Night will never not be the best (and funniest) ten minutes ever.

6x06, Inescapable. Another fan-favourite, but, honestly, another one that deserves every second of that status. Aside from the sheer hilarity of it (Fitzsimmons screaming their issues at each other at the tops of their voices, anyone?) it’s also surprisingly tender, and Fitz’s “what the bloody hell does that --” at the end never fails to crack me up.

7x01, The New Deal. Ah, man, this episode was such a journey in nostalgia!! Plus, the CLOTHES. It’s worth it just for the clothes, honestly.

7x07, The Totally Excellent Adventures of Mack and the D. I didn’t actually think I’d be putting this one on here, but upon consideration... it’s such a lovely, light-hearted and hilarious one despite how serious their situation actually is. Furthermore, this is the episode that proved beyond any shred of doubt that Deke Shaw is the absolute sweetest. Also, he can sing. Like, damn. 

7x13, What We’re Fighting For. I have rewatched this thing at least three times now and I tear up every. single. time. I literally cannot think of any characters who deserve this happy ending more!!

mutuals, let me know if I’ve forgotten any significant ones because there’s a high chance I have, my brother is currently jabbing me in the back with a whiteboard marker and I want to murder him

...Oh, gosh, this somehow turned into me raving about AoS.... Is anyone even surprised, though??? 🤣🤣🤣🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ 

But enough, now for the tagging. The actual point of this. Ahem. 

@ohwriteiforgot, @aleksandrachaev, @everythingirl44, @que-mint-tea, @a-biochemist-not-a-bird, @agentsofcomedyandchaos (if you’re feeling better, Julia 💜), @eowima, @maybebrilliant, @besidemethewholedamntime and @springmagpies​, if any of you guys want to do this! (and hopefully not get as out of control as me, lmao)

Fic WIP tag game :D

I was tagged by @hellfre​ (Thank you!!)

THERE ARE TOO MANY AND I AM SORRY

That one fic where they’re two old gays solving a murder mystery

“I see you’re flooding your petunias again,” Charles muses, approaching the partition between the two yards. 

Erik is tempted to point the hose at him. “Oh come off it,” he mutters. “Your daises lasted less than a week.”

“Because you’re flooding your yard and the excess is ending up in mine,” Charles protests.

“Really?” Erik sends him a wry smile. “I assumed it was your terrible attitude.”

“I will repaint your mailbox.” Charles means it. He painted it a terrible shade of chartreuse last time.

Guardian Angel AU

He has never rebelled against heaven. Not the skies that sing gold and spill silver raindrops upon the land. Not the eyes of shining glory that gaze lovingly upon the creations below. 

They call him naive. 

Maybe it is because he is younger than the Archangels. Perhaps because he has never been sent to Earth before. An angel of knowledge without wisdom, studying the evolution of life. He was born with the purpose to love creatures of the Earth imbued in him.

Lucifer was shot down for despising humanity. 

Surely, surely, the same would not happen to Charles.

Memento fic

And Charles knows. Knows from the way his breath catches in his throat. The way Erik’s eyes glisten. 

Oh god, Charles thinks. Because he should have seen it coming, and he didn’t, and the fact that there are still things left to surprise him is almost exciting. Mostly, however, it’s terrifying.

“I cared more about my mission than your mission. That doesn’t mean I care more about my mission than you. I can hurt your moral sensibilities, but to...to see what I have done.” Erik sighs. “I don’t care for your niceties when there are things I can’t take back. But I am sorry.”

He loves you, says the small voice in Charles’ conscious. The one that wisely kept silent for the past year, pretending not to notice what was clear.

Charles regrets what he did next. Regrets making Erik sleep before he can come any closer. Regrets leaving as quickly as possible, the memory of more than one apology now slipping into his mind, away from the source.

Magneto threw the first brick at stonewall

(Basically an AU where Charles learns that Erik was trying to prevent Kennedy’s suicide and testifies for Erik in court/helps Erik escape and go into hiding. They live together now. The year is 1969) 

“You bloody idiot,” Charles mutters. “What made you think that going into town was a good idea? You should be glad I was here to pick you up. I could just let you sleep here.”

“You don’t even know what they arrested me for,” Erik says, voice hoarse.

“As long as it wasn’t another murder,” Charles replies, trying to be sarcastic only for his voice to lower to a gentle hum. 

Erik glances up at him, black eye pronounced. He has a burn scar running down his arm. Charles instantly feels guilty about chastising him.

“It was a riot,” says Erik. “The police were raiding a bar. I stepped in.”

Charles has never known Erik to be private in a way that denotes shame. He’s normally resolute, giving information to those who deserve it. Here he curls in on himself further, vulnerable. Afraid of what he’ll say next.

“A riot?” Charles asks slowly.

Monuments/Moments Revised (TW! flashbacks to the first few scenes in FC, also dr*wning)

By the time Erik realizes that it would be impossible to resurface, it’s too late.

Seawater roars in his ears and stings at his skin, but he strains his ability until the rattling metal of the submarine sings at the tips of his fingers. The current drags along his thin frame, battering. A distant part of him registers that the sensation is painful. 

It doesn’t matter. Shaw dies first.  

Shaw. His creator, who had torn him apart and ripped away whatever it was that had tethered him to humanity. But Erik is no longer that shaking child from a lifetime ago. He is a monster, freeing the strangled scream that remains of his youth. 

Erik, the extension of a tool. Pull. Good little Erik, a weapon, a force of destruction. Can’t let him get away. Oh, Erik, you disappoint me. Move it. Count to three, come on. I’m going to count to three. 

One.

Two.

Something crashes through the water, bubbles rising in a flurry. Erik tightens his grip. 

Three.

Royalty AU

Instead of seeming pleased with the idea, Charles’ expression only drops further, as though he is disappointed. Erik wondered what he would have wanted to hear. A flower falls to the ground. Charles picks it up, twirling it between his fingers. 

“My people are a peaceful one. We have not fought in ages.”

“You could join Shaw willingly,” Erik offers grimly. It’s an outcome he is prepared for.

“I could,” considers Charles. He turns to him with a hint of a smile. “What a wretched thought.”

Erik stares at him. “It is your choice.” 

“Oh, Erik.” To Erik’s surprise, Charles lets out a bemused huff of a laugh. “Do you think I’m so foolish as to trust my kingdom in the hands of a tyrant?”

“I would hope not,” says Erik. “I would not want to insult you if I have.” 

“You assume the worst, my friend,” says Charles. “I wish you didn’t.”

Circling Part two Electric Boogaloo

He happens upon mushrooms that line the forest floor. Not few, but many. As though a great beast had ravaged the forest and taken enough to give back to the earth. They form bands, stretched out and wavering in the wind. Circles that should mean something, if Erik had been taught. 

Red and white bloom. 

Death-caps. They’re called death-caps for a reason.

There are MANY more but they’re a secret ;)

The full playlist

I decided to do this here because Insta has been a butt for too long and wouldn't let me add songs to my stories. If you read this, I tag you to make your own playlist and tag me in it so I can listen to your music tastes.

Day 1: Deep Purple by Artie Shaw & Helen Forrest

I really have a thing for old Big Band music. I blame my dad. We have an old home video of us dancing together to that music.

Day 2: I'm a Slave 4 U by Britney Spears

Listen. It's a classic.

Day 3: Soak Up the Sun by Sheryl Crow

So it's not the greatest song, but I've spent many a summer listening to it.

Day 4: Pyromania by Cascada

I used to watch old AMVs of this song dedicated to a character from one of my favorite movies, who I used to have a huge crush on. My interests have since changed and now I can't listen to that song without thinking of my old obsession with him. It's cringey, bro.

Day 5: Everytime We Touch by Cascada

It's a BOP!

Day 6: Show Me How You Burlesque by Christina Aguilara

Burlesque is one of my favorite movies and this song especially makes me wanna jump on a table and dance. I don't actually do it, tho.

Day 7: A Thousand Miles by Vanessa Carlton

Perfect for road trips.

Day 8: Starships by Nikki Minaj

I was told it was about getting high. I just thought it was about cool space crafts. I'm not good at song comprehension.

Day 9: Fishy Love by Griffinilla

It's such a cute song. I love Alphys and Undyne.

Day 10: Dreaming of You by Selena

Listen. If you've seen the movie, you'll understand.

Day 11: Toxic by Britney Spears

It's such a great song.

Day 12: Leave (Get Out) by JoJo

This was my #1 favorite song when I was a preteen.

Day 13: Dancing Queen by ABBA

It's quite possibly the only 70s song I like.

Day 14: I See the Light by Zachary Levi and Mandy Moore

It's the most romantic song I know and finding love is my new dream™.

Day 15: Emperor's New Clothes by NateWantsToBattle

Honestly, I prefer this version over the original.

Day 16: Oops I Did It Again by Britney Spears

90s kids understand.

Day 17: Leaves In the Stream by Aurelio Voltaire

Ignoring the fact that I hate singing out loud and would never do karaoke, this song would be the perfect song to karaoke.

Day 18: All I Wanna Do by Sheryl Crow

Do you know how hard it was finding a song from the year I was born that I actually heard before and relatively liked? Actually harder than I thought.

Day 19: Through Heaven's Eyes by Brian Stokes Mitchell

This song really helps me feel a little better about things. Especially my self image.

Day 20: The Devil and Mr. Jones by Aurelio Voltaire

I was really stumped with this prompt because I have trouble understanding the lyrics being sung, much less what they mean. So I chose this. I thought it was about an actor who sold his soul to the Devil in return for Fame, but was cursed to never make a true connection to another person. Turns out, it's just about Doug Jones. You can watch the full explanation here.

Day 21: Pretty Lavinia by American Murder Song

Okay, yes, I understand it's a song about the murderer Lavinia Fisher, but it's a good song! Very catchy.

Day 22: High Hopes by Panic! at the Disco

It's a fun song that gets me through the day

Day 23: The Gael... Time Flies by Pirates For Sail

I know you gays out there love pirate shanties. This is my #1 favorite in my piratey playlist.

Day 24: Bye Bye Bye by N*SYNC

Honestly, I don't listen to a lot of bands, much less ones that broke up. I really don't care if they no longer make music. It's their choice and there's nothing I could do to change it. But this song is good and I miss the days when it was more popular.

Day 25: Como La Flor by Selena

Selena. Need I say more?

Day 26: Can't Help Falling in Love by Elvis

It's such a romantic song.

Day 27: Remember Me from Coco

This song has a deeper meaning when you have a family member who doesn't remember who you are.

Day 28: Chupando by Aurelio Voltaire

Voltaire is my favorite singer. He has such an amazing voice.

Day 29: Someday My Prince Will Come by Adriana Caselotti

I watched Snow White so many times as a child, my parents and I know like every word, every song, etc.

Day 30: When Will My Life Begin by Mandy Moore

Staying home, keeping busy with dozens of crafty hobbies, and waiting for my own Eugene to help me figure my life out? I am Rapunzel.
