Date: 2012-01-04 01:13 am (UTC)Duly noted. The thing is, I’m not really sure I can help you without starting World War III. Charles mentally raises an eyebrow, because caution is usually his forte, not Tony’s, especially not about something like this. Not unless… Steve ordered you not to, didn’t he? But you’re a switch, it’s not as though you feel compelled to obey like a sub would-
Jesus, do you know nothing about dynamic biology? Don’t answer that, of course you don’t. When it comes to your true match, you feel a similar compulsion that subs do to obey, depending on the order. And there wasn’t an order anyway. No one can afford another war right now, Charles, and I’m not going to start one, even for you. And as upset as you are right now, you must realize how bad that would look for your campaign for peaceful coexistence. Unless, he hasn’t hurt you or tried to lock you up, has he? . Tony’s voice grows tight on his last few words, waves of anger rolling off of him.
Of course I don’t want a war, I just hoped you'd have a solution that didn’t result in one. And no, the strange thing is that he’s being… nice, even tender. He’s not trying to stop my work and his rules are only a bit terrible, and I have no idea when he’ll show his true colors. Charles sighs as he feels Tony’s relief, knowing his chance of being rescued was growing smaller by the second. Charles could tell that Tony wasn't lying about the war his rescue would likely cause, and he couldn't condone that, not even to save himself.
You know, there’s a chance he already has, but look, Steve and I are coming to Genosha on Shield business in a month and I can have a rescue plan that doesn’t end in carnage read if you still need it. Until then you’re just going to have to sit tight. Besides, I'm not sure that finding your dom might not be good for in the long run and Steve agrees-
Steve is from the nineteen forties, when they still puts subs on leashes and you're... you. Forgive me if I don’t consider the two the expert on normal relationships. You’re just lucky you both turned out to be switches.. Charles can feel Tony roll his eyes and the pulse in the back of his head grow a bit stronger, the feel of Erik slipping into his mind.
Don’t be a brat, Charles. You know Steve never approved of leashing and that was only twenty years ago, and no relationship involving you could ever be anything close to normal. What he meant was that you haven’t been happy in years, Charles. Content, definitely complacent, but true happiness has always seemed to elude you, and maybe if you stopped pretending to be everything you’re not for five minutes you could actually relax.. Charles knows Tony has a point, his moments of happiness in the past few years had been both fleeting and diminishing. But that had been from stress and a certain inexplicable loneliness, not out of some desperate need for Erik.

Date: 2012-01-04 01:13 am (UTC)I know, now if you’ll excuse me, I have to go back to being an international crisis. Charles slips out of Tony’s mind before the other man can respond, knowing it would’ve only taken one more flippant comment or pseudo-lecture by Tony to make him snap. Charles couldn’t afford to be mad at Tony right now, not when he’s the only connection Charles has to his old life. Charles comes back to his own body slowly, the buzz of thoughts weakening until it's only Genoshans again.
Charles absently notes that he’s sweating a bit, hair matted against his forehead and throat dry and legs feeling like they might give out on him any second. He’s not sure he should try that again, at least not without more preparation. Charles takes a few deeps breath and does his best to steady himself, giving the mirror his most charming smile before he slips out of the bathroom.
Erik is standing a few feet away, grin nearly feral as he stares at Charles, gaze raw and dangerous, and utterly intoxicating. The last thought makes Charles flush, and he smiles weakly at Erik and wonders how long he’s been in the bathroom, if he needs to come up with some sort of explanation. Charles hasn’t thought of anything that isn’t utterly humiliating by the time Erik bridges the gap between them, running his thumb across Charles’ bottom lip. The touch is as rough and possessive as his gaze, the air filling with a sudden tension. “How is Tony, Charles?”

Date: 2012-01-04 02:33 pm (UTC)Erik is fierce here. His smile is probably made of diamonds - pretty, but unbreakable.

Date: 2012-01-04 07:01 pm (UTC)BE HAPPY OKAY. Yes.
Also, Tony is spot-on and GOLDEN. How could I have ever doubted you, wayward son.

Date: 2012-01-05 02:24 am (UTC)Still holding out that Erik isn't going to flip tables, and is instead thrilled to find out Charles has such a large range.
Can't wait for the next part to find out! :)

Date: 2012-01-16 03:23 pm (UTC)(As you may have guessed, I am not a fan of *this* Raven and am very much hoping for a confrontation that addresses how much her attitude influenced Charles in his choice to repress himself.)

Date: 2014-01-06 01:20 pm (UTC)Somebody's in deep deep shit. Or maybe Erik will continue being awesome and understanding...? I, btw, like your Erik so really very much because despite the fact that he's symphatetic towards Charles it's not because he's some kind of fuckin' saint but because he's in control of the irration Charles' stubbornnes makes him feel and that's just so Erik.
And Tony is The Best Ever. I'm so happy you're including him (and Logan, goddamnit, all my favourite boys are present, can he pretty pretty please make an appearance in chapters-to-be? <3)
WANT MOARR!
