Summary
Hot sand, sharp pain, heartache, numbness.
Hot tears, damp hair, bloody hands, numbness.
Can’t breathe, can’t speak, no thoughts, numbness.
So much pain…
It hurts…OR
Charles has a nightmare and Erik comforts him.

Summary
“Where’s the Professor?” Peter asked, coming to a stop next to Erik, “He’s supposed to be teaching a class right now but one of the students came to tell Ororo he wasn’t in class.”
“You stay here and take over this class. Have them play tag or something, and just don’t let them get hurt. I’ll go find Charles, okay?” Erik replied.
Peter nodded and Erik took off, not quite running but going at a quick jog. As he moved his powers stretched out around the school, searching for the familiar feeling of Charles’s chair. It didn’t take long for him to find it in their bedroom next to the bed. With that knowledge, he took off running faster, not stopping or slowing until he was racing up the stairs.

And A Hush Fell Over His Mind by Currently_Obsessed_With_subject2change
Fandoms: X-Men (Movieverse)

Summary
Charles will do anything to protect his home and his students, he will ENDURE anything. His life and his beloved family of mutants means more to him than his own wellbeing, and he will fight to protect them, no matter what. His life of peace is his to preserve.
But that is all tested when he and Erik are ambushed in the woods and Charles wakes up in an unknown chamber, strapped to a chair, with his head wrapped in a cage-like device. He realizes quickly that with it on, he can’t touch anyone’s mind, let alone use his mutation at all. And it doesn’t just suppress his mutation, the person responsible for the device also holds the controls– and the leverage.
The location of the school. That’s all he wants. And he’s not above putting Charles in unspeakable pain to get it out of him.
Oh, and Erik is forced to watch.

A fanfic in which I take Stryker and his neural inhibitor from X2 and put it in a context where prequel Charles is tortured with it. This idea hit me immediately when I was rewatching X2, so screw the timeline, it’s messy enough already :P

Summary
His vigilance doesn’t matter, in the end. There’s nothing he can do, not with how the mutant’s mind slips from his grasp and how his lower back still aches so terribly despite not being able to feel anything past. The man moves faster than he can react, and there's a sudden pain in the junction between his neck and shoulder. He hadn’t even been careful enough to find a vein, prioritizing jabbing in the needle over precision, but it still did its work.
Or
Charles gets poisoned during a fight. This has consequences.

Summary
Erik and Charles have thoroughly enjoyed their mutant-recruitment road trip thus far. Sure, they’ve been rejected plenty of times by mutants around the world, but that was bound to happen. The next mutant up is Darwin, and they stop off for a quick lunch before flagging his cab down.
They should not have picked the restaurant that they did. Or, more specifically, Charles should not have had those two salmon fillets.

Summary
It's a dumb idea, to go fight a Nazi super-mutant on a beach in Cuba during the Cold War, surrounded by Soviet and American ships on all sides.
It was an even more dangerous idea to go there pregnant with a six-month-along baby in his intersexual mutant womb.

Summary
They’re hurting him.
The thing about a skilled torturer is that they know when to quit; they know when they’re not getting through to someone, when they’re never going to get through to someone, and John- well, John may have underestimated these particular mercenaries.
They’re hurting him because they realized that was the best way to hurt John, to get him to fold. They’re hurting him because they realized that John got snarkier the closer they got to Harold, as if he was trying to redirect their attention, because, of course, he was.
They’re hurting Finch because of John.
