I didn’t planned to cry but here we are 🥲
I've been thinking about the Paris Proposal lately.
I love it so much. In a time when Charles is so vulnerable and alone- Raven is dead, Jean is gone(?), he lost his place as headmaster of the school and leader of the x-men, and surely he assumes he's lost Erik long ago- Erik shows up and is so soft and gentle.
The best part? This line:
Throughout the series but particularly in Dark Phoenix, everyone that Charles loves interprets his intentions in the worst possible light. This movie is like, one long Charles whump; Raven accuses him of hiding in the mansion and taking the credit for the x-men's success, Hank cruelly blames him for Raven's death and turns on him after thirty years of friendship, and even Erik gets his licks in ("You're always sorry...but nobody cares anymore"!? ERIK!!!)
But then Erik shows up in Paris, and says "You saved my life, and you offered me a home."
I'm certain that in First Class, Erik didn't see it that way. Instead, he saw Charles making ultimatums and rejecting Erik entirely the moment Erik did something Charles didn't agree with (and we can all agree Charles didn't handle things well on that beach, but the truth is that he always, always forgives Erik and he always wants him back, even when he's upset with him)
Sometime over the last thirty years, Erik has reevaluated that time and come to the conclusion that- yes, Charles was offering him a home-not just a place to sleep and train and plot.
A home.
Somewhere you return to at the end of every day, regardless of what that day brought and whether you were the best or worst version of yourself, somewhere safe and accepting and loving.
After Charles has lost everything he cares about and is told he's selfish and dangerous and always has been, Erik shows up to convince him otherwise.
"You saved my life, and you offered me a home. I'd like to do the same for you."
Which, given all that context, sounds a lot like:
Two people with decades of grief and pain and anger between them seeing the love and good in each other at the end of it all.
Absolutely beautiful.
Hi guys ! So since apparently people want to read a fic about the silly little idea I had, I need to give the people what they want !
I’ll take a few days to write it and come back here to show you the results 🫡
But, while I do that , if you have any suggestions or ideas that you would like to have in Cherik fanfic, just let me know ! I don’t always have inspiration but I would love to write for you ! (Please I really need other ideas and rn there’s nothing up there)
can we finally have the conversation about how erik’s gay montage in apocalypse of charles from first class, telling him that they need him and that he’s necessary is not really what happened? I mean, they did have a conversation in which charles convinced erik to stay & help but erik’s memory added something to what charles was saying.
this is the original scene from x-men: first class and then there’s the scene from erik’s memory in x-men: apocalypse
in first class:
“its not just me you’re walking away from. here you have the chance to be part of something much bigger than yourself. I won’t stop you leaving. I could, but I won’t.”
in apocalypse:
“it’s not just me you’re walking away from. here you have the chance to be part of something much bigger than yourself- and it needs you erik.”
…
I just think it’s beautiful that this is how erik remembered what charles said… I don’t think it was an editing mistake, I truly believe it was on purpose that they used a different scene.

Hi everyone ! Another day, another Cherik fic recommendation !
« Charlotte Francine Xavier » 72.156 words.
So, technically I’m not a fan of genderswap, I think it’s a bit too easy BUT this fic is… WOW
We follow the events of First Class but the difference being that we don’t have Charles, we have Charlotte. And we see throughout the fic how the fact that the telepath is a female impacts the events of the movie.
There are some TW (not really graphic but still there) like non-cons, child abuse and ofc the classic violence of the movie.
The relationship between Erik and Charlotte is absolutely lovely and I think it’s well built and balanced. Honestly, I loved it.
Anyways, if you’ve read it, please let me know what you think of it ! 💙
But also the masculine urge to look like this
The autistic urge to not feel comfortable in either gender whilst also feeling comfortable as both genders
I wanna be a boy girl boy , but in like a girl way but also be boy but also be girl
I just saw Marvel Entertainment’s video on YT titled “Avengers: Doomsday | Now in Production” which showed a bunch of the cast member chairs with names.
GUESS WHOSE NAMES WERE ON THERE
