Summary
"He's just like-"
“Like you were, when you first came here?” Xavier’s gaze was far too piercing. It sliced Logan to the bone, and he could feel his skin prickle where phantom blades cut through it.
“Exactly,” Logan growled, refusing to let Xavier see just how much that bothered him. “That’s why the kid’s dangerous.”
“That’s why he needs help,” Xavier pressed gently, as if he was chiding Logan for his hostility. “And that is why you are the best equipped to help him.”
__________________________
In which Logan accidentally volunteers to help babysit the latest addition to the Xavier Institute, a strange new student that was quite literally left on their doorstep. However, this student isn't quite a "student" at all; it is a weapon left without a handler. Unfortunately, the new mutant now thinks Logan is his handler. Even more unfortunately, Logan knows more about this situation than he would like to.AKA an AU that embellishes on the fact that Kurt was being used as a weapon by Stryker at the beginning of X2, turning the situation into a recovery scenario that ends up helping both Kurt and Logan overcome their Weapon X conditioning.

Summary
After Xavier’s assassination, the X-Men expected Scott to get custody of them. It turns out Xavier left everything, including guardianship of his students, to an ex-husband his students didn’t even know he had. Now, they must learn to live with this new person while also hiding their mutant powers.
Magneto visits New York to grieve his late ex-husband. A mutate lawyer tracks him down and tells him he has to take care of a gaggle of recently orphaned children. Magneto tries his best to rise to the occasion without revealing he is the leader of the mutant nation Genosha and internationally known as a terrorist.
Or, stepdad Magneto adoption AU!
Updated in arcs incrementally so the fic will never feel abandoned/unfinished. Currently on hiatus until the next arc is written.

Bookmarker's Notes
I love stories where the X-men are primarily younger and this is a super creative take on it!

Summary
AU after the first X-Men movie. While traveling through Canada on Xavier's tip, Logan comes across a strange mutant caged in a freak show. He can get him out, but actually saving him will be a longer process, and may take an entire family of mutants. And they all might just insist on saving Logan along the way, too.
Features bigotry, multiple scenes of "spot the comics guest star", lots of road trips, and gratuitous amounts of Canada.
