He wants to hold the face of the man whose thoughts he is even now struggling to keep separate from his own, wants to share with him the greatest truth and cruelest lie Charles knows - that he isn’t alone, that neither of them are, not if they don’t want to be. AU. Charles meets Erik during a summer abroad when he is 17. warning: vague d/s themes, consensual use of abilities.

"There's only one bed," he called after Erik, who'd dropped his suitcase and vanished into the bathroom. "They were full except for this room," Erik returned over the noise of the sink. "It's large enough to share." He opened the door. "Or would you prefer to sleep on the floor?" Charles actually looked between the floor and the bed to be sure of his choice. "Sharing is fine," he conceded.

Erik thinks Charles has been holding out on him. Notes: For my "drugs/aphrodisiacs" square. Telepathy as an aphrodisiac! Podfic! I podficced this one, and you can find it on my website. :)

Some problems, only telepaths ever have. - In which Charles falls in love with Erik whilst falling overboard, misreads Erik's mind once, and is far more respectful of Erik's mental privacy than anyone else realizes in the aftermath. (Or: In which months of sexual tension occur because the boys are idiots.) Notes: So, this....I have no excuse for this. This started off as my explanation of why Charles suddenly becomes socially inept when he can't/won't read someone's mind, and turned into a 10k fix-it lovesong to Erik Lensherr that still isn't finished. At this point, I'm giving up pretending this fic isn't eating my soul and just posting it. A thousand thanks go, as ever, to my long suffering-beta, who, despite not being in this fandom, listened to the ridiculously long rant that kicked this off, and read over all the ensuing fic. You're the very best, darling. Two scenes, rather early in this fic, contain dialog thieved directly from the movie. I couldn't resist, but I'm not claiming ownership in any way.

A modern AU in which Charles runs a mutant daycare and Erik is his long-suffering engineer boyfriend. Notes: The stories are listed here in the order they're written, but not necessarily chronological order. Also, as we never expected this to be a series, a lot of things about the first few stories (the ages of the kids, etc) are retconned in later stories to fit the, uh, continuing epicness of the series. Apologies for any confusion!

Charles and his BFF Tony Stark have the life - they're co-valedictorians at the most prestigious high school in the city, they have their own condo in Manhattan, and they get to go to all the awesome parties. Charles just wished he understood relationships and sex as well as Tony does. His theoretical bisexuality starts to feel a lot less theoretical when he and Tony end up in Professor Lehnsherr's Physics III course at Columbia University, but Charles' decision to take their relationship further leaves both student and professor with more than they bargained for. Features an enthusiastically-consenting!16-year-old!Charles Notes: This fic, as usual, owes a debt to Regann. It also owes a debt to brilligspoons and pocky_slash (et al.?) and the brilliant Daycare 'verse which got me really stuck on the idea of Charles and Tony being BFFs. Um... fluffy-angst ensued.

The Attempt - Chapter 1 - Yahtzee - X-Men: First Class (2011) [Archive of Our Own]

http://archiveofourown.org/works/292763/chapters/468363



Written for the following prompt: Charles knows everything about Erik, knows how obsessive and self-destructive he is, how Erik would do anything, give anything, in his quest for vengeance against Shaw. But he also knows that Erik loves him in ways that aren't exactly platonic. I'd like to see a completely straight!Charles, out of pure love and care of Erik, initiate a romantic relationship with him. It can be because he wishes to give Erik something positive in his life or because he thinks it might help change Erik's mind about Shaw, the reason is up to author. Also, while Charles finds intimacy with Erik strange and awkward, he does enjoy the new, non-romantic layers that have developed in their relationship.

There is a greater enemy on the horizon. Erik does not walk away. For what is lost can be found, and there is a fine line between love and hate. An exploration of prejudice and politics. Very loosely based on the following prompt: tl;dr- an exploration of what being a gay telepath during the 60s would have been like. Notes: Prompt: So one day Erik and Charles are having one of their ~discussions~ during a chess match or whenever, but this time it's getting a bit more heated than usual for whatever reason. Erik (and Raven has in the past maybe?) is saying stuff like Charles has never been discriminated against/doesn't have to hide his true self, not like Raven, stuff like that. And without thinking because he's angry Charles busts out with something like "OMG I'M GAY AND ALL THE TIME I CAN HEAR ALL THE NASTY HORRIBLE STUFF PEOPLE THINK ABOUT HOMOSEXUALS AND I HIDE MYSELF WHENEVER I FLIRT WITH GIRLS" or... something along those lines. And I don't want it to be a PWP and Erik is all 'me too! *sexes*' I want Erik to have no clue, and probably have internalized a lot of the stereotypes about gay people that society believed/believes, etc. (There's not enough of that in fic so far, c'mon people, it was the 60s.) Mostly I want an exploration of what it would have been like for a gay telepath in the 60s, and Erik realizing that Charles DOES understand, at least to some degree... and then struggling with his own sexuality. And this all happening slowly over chessboard!talks/arguments and whatnot. You could totally also include his step brother's/step father's abuse/neglect (could tie that into them thinking he was gay or even just because he wasn't ~manly~ idk). Bonus points if Charles freaks out after coming out to Erik, and Erik is a little off balance because he did NOT see that coming and so not reassuring Charles right away and so... Charles!angst. This was also probably his first coming out. It would make sense for Raven not to know since that's why she thinks Charles doesn't understand. More bonus points if at some point Charles in the discussions says something along the lines of "and I'm well aware that if I lived in Germany I would've been sent to the camps too because of this" and all the metal in the house starts rattling as Erik is furious at the idea of (his) Charles anywhere near the camps. More bonus points if the reason the argument was more heated than normal because Charles was upset about something specific, like one of the kids saying something really homophobic or something horrible in the news, etc. tl;dr- exploration of what being a gay telepath during the 60s would have been like, and erik and raven's reactions to finding that out. This began as a simple post-Cuba AU exploring homophobia, but it became a massive exercise in world-building and politics and dystopia. I hope you like it anyways.

http://archiveofourown.org/works/269150



Raven is six years older than Charles; Charles has never really considered this age difference vitally important in one way or another, except to decide that even if Raven were six years younger than Charles, she would probably boss him around in the exact same way. He doesn’t really think much of the difference between fifteen and twenty-one, until Raven comes home from college for a study weekend with her new best friend in tow, introduces him cheerfully as Erik Lehnsherr, and Charles finds himself falling head-over-heels into a train wreck of doomed lust. Notes: Uh, so today I basically blinked and accidentally wrote 3000 words of jailbait!Charles pining after older Erik. Oops? There’ll almost definitely be more of this next week.

AU crossover. Tony Stark has known Charles Xavier since Tony was eight and Xavier was his Uncle Charles. Now that Tony’s all grown up, Charles vets his dates. Well, most of them. Except for the ones where Charles brings someone who should really be in jail, not a fancy restaurant. Slid off the back of this prompt in that it’s Charles who is Tony’s oldest friend, and Tony’s not much of a fan of Erik: By virtue of being Tony's oldest friends, Charles and Erik reserve the right to vet all his significant others. Through terrifying dinner parties. Even they can't find much wrong with Steve, though. And sort of end up asking why he's with Tony. Thanks to Copperbadge and 51stcenturyfox for beta/Americanpick, and pointing out/fixing the bits that didn’t make sense, and to Copperbadge for providing a title.

Midnight, and Charles can't sleep. Erik isn't waiting for him, exactly, but he's in the study all the same, drinking Charles's brandy and messing with Charles's ordered mind. Also he seems determined to test the limits of Charles's powers, especially when Raven is wandering the halls as well.

(Movie-Concurrent AU.) When Charles forges a telepathic link between himself and Erik, the two men find themselves bound together by more than just destiny. With the world on the brink of war, Charles and Erik struggle to cope with a psychic connection that may well be permanent.

I would love to see something where Charles is straight-laced teacher and Charles is a MMA or bare-knuckled boxer. Established relationship, non-established relationship, whatever. I'm not picky. Maybe there could be a scene where Erik visits Charles at his place of employ and is treated rudely by his coworkers until Charles sees what's happening and shuts them the fuck down.

Modern-Day High School AU. It’s not until Hank realises half the class are glancing towards the back of the classroom with something like nerves and something like schadenfreude that he finds out Alex Summers is back. Notes: Basically everyone’s got mental health problems in this and I think at least 20k of it was produced under antidepressant-induced mania last summer. Experimenting with writing styles so five different POVs. I’ve deliberately fucked with ages and friendships and familial relationships for both the movies and the comics. Other than that... this is stupidly long, and a bit ridiculous, and I’m really sorry (all I wanted was to write a cracky fic where Emma and Hank were BFFs. Whyyyyy etc).

He had been following Xavier's career for years. He had read and reread and reread again everything the man had written. He had tried, on more occasions than he could count, to recruit Xavier into the Brotherhood, but each request for a meeting had been denied. Aside from his work, no one knew anything about Xavier. Not what he looked like, not the full extent of his power--though from what little they did know, he was by far the most powerful telepath in existence--and not what his intentions were. The man was a recluse. As far as Magneto knew, Xavier had never once stepped foot outside his impenetrable Westchester manor. And now he was scheduled as the keynote speaker for the largest pro-mutant conference in the world.

A series of fics that star Tony, Charles, and Erik (and probably some others as the idea expands) at Carnegie Mellon University. Some are AU of each other, don't use logic.
