Summary
Things have never been quiet in the Xavier household, but they get entirely out of hand when the very eligible and very rich Mr. McCoy takes up residence in the estate next door. Charles, however, is quite certain that Mr. McCoy's German houseguest is the most dreadful man he's ever met. The trouble is, his sister has fallen entirely in love with Mr. Lehnsherr, and Charles is beginning to suspect that he has, too.
(Pride and Prejudice AU, starring Charles as Elizabeth, Erik as Darcy, Raven as Jane, and Hank as Bingley.) -

Summary
Excerpt from chapter 33:
Charles was stable. That was the best news the doctors could provide, and as Erik stood by his friend's bedside, his arms were folded tight to his chest. Charles lay on the mattress, a starched white bed sheet draping him from chest to feet. His eyes remained open. His arms rested outside the covers with tubes protruding from his skin like he was a component of a machine and nothing more.
That was, after all, what Erik had reduced him to already. At the base.
Gingerly, Erik extended his hand. He wrapped his fingers around Charles' left wrist, just above the dark ring of purple staining his skin. Words ached in Erik's throat, but he didn't bother with any. He had been such a fool. He had allowed the other mutants to manipulate his better judgment, to make an enemy of their own kind like dogs eating each other.
Never again.

Summary
At the tail end of the 1920s, the Twentieth Century is finally changing for the better. When Charles and Erik meet, it seems like an appropriate expression of the zeitgeist--a confluence of passion, romance, and change. But the good times never last. Erik and Charles have to discover if they can weather they gray days together, or at all.

Summary
Shaw counted to three, Erik didn't move the coin. But Shaw didn't kill Edie Eisenhardt. Instead he imprisoned her, used her to force Erik into obedience. Now Erik must work for the man he hates as his multi-purpose assassin/spy. On the run from American authorities Erik finds himself injured and at the mercy of a lonely telepath. As he gets to know the extremely powerful yet bitterly unhappy Charles Xavier, Erik begins to plot the downfall of the man who has tormented him for nearly his entire life.
Otherwise diverges from Canon in that Charles never found Raven, so his childhood was pretty crappy. Raven will show up later though. Erik's backstory is a mix between comic and movie.

And who the hell managed to steal his work from the inside of a locked filing cabinet?

Summary
It's March of 1963 and Charles Xavier's life seems to be falling into place. Sebastian Shaw is dead and he, Erik, Moira, and their team and young pupils are well on their way to opening their mutant school for fall enrollment.
Everything would be perfect if it wasn't for the childhood nightmares that Charles keeps accidentally projecting to the house, the odd dreams that leave him sleepwalking through corridors that haven't been used in decades, and the children's insistence that the house is haunted by a ghost that roams the halls at night. Erik thinks Charles is seeing things, Moira is afraid that the strange occurrences have something to do with the mysterious man trying to woo her, and Charles just wants proof that it's not all in his head.

Summary
Autumn, 1909 – Viscount Charles Xavier has invited friends and acquaintances to spend the weekend, hoping for good company and interesting conversation. But he doesn’t bank on murder being committed under his roof, nor his growing interest in the enigmatic Erik Lehnsherr…

Summary
An accident...
There was an accident.
Next thing he knows, Erik is a ghost trying not to fall through the floor (or maybe through the ceiling – he can hardly keep track) of a hospital while his body lays comatose in bed. Then a doctor named Xavier is blabbering on to him about how he’s so bloody sorry that Erik saved his life and a little blond ghost of a girl is making him promise to stalk her older brother in order to protect him from a possible prophecy straight out of every cliché movie Erik has ever watched.
So, there he is, Erik fucking Lehnsherr, ghost and comatose patient to a blabbering doctor named Charles Francis Xavier, sworn to protect him from the ever-constant threat of the world (and probably himself).
