    Summary

    Erik’s mind noticed things like how Charles’ brown hair caught the light from the lamps on the table besides him, how fair his skin was, and apparently, now and then, resolved to cataloguing the colour of his eyes – altering between comparing them to skies and seas, and settling on neither. It would all have been very amusing, if it hadn’t been for four small realisations.

    One: Erik was in love with him.

    Two: Erik didn’t even seem to completely realise it himself, because - as far as Charles could tell - he had never experienced anything of the kind before.

    Three: Charles was less surprised than he’d expect given the situation at hand, and – to be perfectly honest – it felt more like a confirmation rather than a realisation. Which was perhaps the most troubling (he’d have to examine that sentiment later).

    And four: Erik’s mind reeked with suspicion.

    When 19-year-old genius Charles Xavier starts his teaching job at M Institute he expects a lot, but not becoming the unofficial psychiatrist and apparent guide of the interesting Erik Lehnsherr, who is two years his senior and being difficult.

    Summary

    In the days and months following the events in Cuba, Raven attempts adapt to her hazardous and violent new life as a member of Erik's fledgling Brotherhood of Mutants.

    The other recruits – Shaw's old people – are unknown quantities, and Raven struggles to overcome her fear of these dangerous strangers who will eventually become her comrades. In the process, she is surprised to find herself drawn toward Azazel.

    Meanwhile, Erik and Charles are slowly working toward reconciliation, both in their personal relationship and in their politics. They enter a period of tentative rapprochement, and begin to help one another in recruiting new Mutants into their respective organizations. In the process of doing so, the Brotherhood encounters many new Mutants, including Remy, Toad and Fred Dukes.

    DEVIL is the first of three novel-length fics in the FALLING series, which will seek to link X-Men: First Class to the events of X1 and X2 (X-Men: Last Stand and the Wolverine films are not canonical to this universe). The intent of these stories is to explain how the characters we saw in XMFC became who they are in the original two films.

    Summary

    While auditioning for Pete Wentz, Ryan and Brendon’s abilities trigger. Lucky for them, Pete happens to know of a school that can help them learn control. The situation doesn’t get much better when the four arrive at Xavier’s School For Gifted Youngsters. Ryan Ross and St. John Allerdyce both have the same problem; their best friend is in love with some stupid girl, instead of them. Just when they’ve found their own solution, the United States military attacks the school. When Magneto offers to take them away, of course they accept.

    Meanwhile, the Mutant Registration Act is gaining favour in the United States. Pete shows his opinion by attempting to sign a mutcore band to his label, to Joe’s approval, ignoring the difficulties Andy notes. My Chemical Romance takes a more visible stance, including but not limited to Frank outing himself and Gerard making scenes. Post Midtown ex-activist Gabe Saporta is looking for a new purpose in life, and ends up exactly where he was before. And Singer has to deal with the aftereffects of the mutant-outing headache that swept the world.

    With so much hate in the air, sometimes there’s no choice left but to reinvent love.
