I started weeping at "had taught each other how to kiss". It's Erik trying to be good for Charles and Charles holding onto his principles and surely they are BOTH the better men for their convictions, but the process is agonizing.

Thank you for the delicious angst, the fantastic fusion of this world and for keeping Erik as inherently rebellious.

I love that exchange between Raven and Erik, by the way, that talk about not just One bad breakup, but an accumulation of small hurts that makes both Charles' aloofness and Erik's desperation for a future that could be build up on the *good* things of the past much more precarious and...precious.

I'm... sorry, I guess? For making you cry? But also rather pleased? :)

You're very welcome for the delicious angst, etc., and thank you for being a great commenter!!
