    Summary

    Henry’s staring at him expectantly, and who is he to keep him waiting any longer?

    “How do you feel about summer weddings?”

    Fuck.

    or

    5 times Alex doesn't have a filter, and 1 time Henry doesn't

    Summary

    "I do believe the two of you were in the same year as boys, were you not?" Headmaster Shaw said. "Charles is the most competent deputy any headmaster could ask for, Erik, and he's been doing this for years…" He trailed off, as if finally noticing something odd in the way his Potions and Divination masters were staring at each other.

    "Of course," Charles said quickly, his voice only a little hoarse, and stuck out his hand. "Welcome back to Hogwarts, Erik."

    Summary

    Charles and Erik are spending their first Hanukkah and Christmas living together… which would be lovely, if Charles weren’t trying to impress Erik’s terrifyingly competent German mother, Kitty weren’t causing latke-based structural damage, and Raven hadn’t brought along her van-life boyfriend.

    But nothing nothing prepares Charles for Sharon’s Boxing Day party in Surrey: Kurt with his Very Strong Opinions, Cain and his podcast masculinity theories, the Coven of Surrey Women, unsolicited chest-touching, and a level of festive chaos that would test the strongest relationship.

    Somehow, amid the glittered dreidels, the self-help monologues, and one unforgettable sound bath, Charles and Erik survive the holiday and even come out of it a little softer, a little closer, and very relieved to go home to leftover Chinese and their cats.

    A seasonal Mind the Gap one-shot full of domestic sweetness, cultural carnage, and the worst party Surrey has ever seen

    Summary

    This will happen again. It always happens again. But Henry never complains about caring for Alex when he needs it.

    He’s far too in love for that.

    Today, Henry is walking past an elementary school with David when he sees a teacher giving small children gold star stickers as they put away their playground toys. The children squeal with delight, overjoyed at the simple positive reinforcement.

    It seems silly, but Henry is intrigued. Alex likes being praised, thriving on positive attention and affirmation. But perhaps something tangible, even something as simple as shimmering stickers, could be absurd enough to work.

    Summary

    Erik is a lawyer fighting for mutant rights, a single dad to three children who he loves, and is ever exhausted by, and absolutely not someone who has time for a relationship. Other than the bitter divorce he's still picking like a scab.

     

    So if this hot charismatic nerd could stop flirting with him via literary references while his life falls apart, he would appreciate it.

     

    OR: A fic where Erik is burnt out, Charles is burnt out, shadows from Erik's past resurface, and they have to figure out how to stop a evil man while the children are funny, and vaugly haunting
