    Summary

    When the first class kids hear about a famous fanfiction of themselves, entitled “X-Men: First Class,” Charles decides to give it a go – and finds that it’s heavy on the “cherik.”

    Charles sees the humor. Erik’s not amused.

    Inspired by that one interview of James Mcavoy ( https://youtu.be/guurCM1eofs?si=s2pOnnZXJ78jskfX ). Bonus Emmoira content at the end. Set in the time between my fics Hear Me Out and Like A Promise but can be read as a standalone!

    ( Note: I began writing this before I was forcefully erased from the internet by my family! I know that those fics are no longer available, so sorry if there’s parts of this oneshot that don’t make sense without larger context. I’m working to get them reposted ASAP. )

    Summary

    You know that Tumblr post that’s like “half of college professors are like you can know nothing about me except my name,” and the other half are like “and that’s why my wife left me! Anyway, what’s up with y’all?”

    And someone else said: plot twist, they are married to each other.

    So that with Erik and Charles.

    Summary

    Erik glowers.

    “I can’t believe we’re back to this,” Charles says, like he wants to throw his hands in the air. He’s pouting a little bit. “Years of progress, and we’ve returned to you brooding. Don’t tell me I have to break out the terrible flirting again.”

    Erik glowers a little less. “Flirting,” he repeats, bland but also maybe just very, very, very slightly, faintly, vaguely hopeful.

    “Oh, yes,” Charles says absently, until something seems to strike him. “Don’t tell me you don’t…” He raises his left hand and brandishes the ring. “We promised ourselves to each other last week.”

    --

    Alternatively: Erik's memory is swiped clean of his and Charles's relationship.

    Erik memory loss

    Summary

    Charles and Erik have been married for years: in public, the tabloids have dubbed them New York’s “powered couple,” and in private, they’re deeply in love.

    But when Charles wakes up in the hospital, he finds his life has utterly unraveled while he was unconscious. Three years prior, he was hit on the head and sent into a coma-like “telepathic fugue state”; today, Erik is in prison, convicted of attempted murder for a crime it seems like only he could have committed.

    Charles knows Erik would never harm him—but will anyone else actually believe it?
