It is that time of the year when we start to wonder about this fandom. What are they doing? Are there new fics? Is there someone still active in there? Are people still writing prompts?
To be honest, we don’t even have half of the answers. But what we know is that it’s time for us to get ready to create, enjoy and celebrate the love we have for these two old mutants because…
Cherik Week 2025 is coming soon!
Some of us know that this year, Team Cherik has decided to take a well deserved break. However, this doesn’t mean that we’ll stop and forget about this cherished tradition of giving an entire week to our favorite mutants: Charles Xavier and Erik Lehnsherr.
That’s why, a little group of fans (with Team Cherik’s blessing), has decided to take the lead this year. We are trying to make this with enough time so everyone involved in this community can have all the time and inspiration needed to leave heart and soul in each and every single one of their creations.
And just highlighting that, even if you can’t actively participate, you can always support all those writers, artists, friends, mutant brothers and sisters, by liking, commenting and sharing their works.
We all know how important it is for us to receive that feedback and we’d love to keep this lovely community as supportive as always.
This event, as every year, will be in the first week of JUNE, from the 2nd to the 8th.
Cherik lovers from around the world. Any language is welcome, and anyone can participate.
