“Well someone had to fill your spot when you left my side … “

“Oh yeah? How good is she at wiping your shit?”

Nine? Pietro was having a hard time accepting that his mother - his real mother - had been alive for nine years without them knowing about it. In fact, just about all of this was really hard for him to understand. “Why should I believe you, hm? Why should I believe any of this?”

“Why would I lie?” He asked as a reply because sometimes, a justification could just feel unnecessary, saying less than a simple question.

“Or maybe you’re getting too old ….”

“Coming from the one who needs a nurse.”

Did Loki listen to Empire’s New Clothes, yes.  He did. It gave him maybe one too many ideas of mischief, which resulted in a bit of …an explosion  …. firework.

       “Give me back my drink and you shall live… Maybe.” 

[magneticus-erik]

“Excuse you?”

[magneticus-erik]

xthegoodsheperdx‌:

“Not this time …. although I shrunk to a very small size , that was fun. “

Small? Fun? “You’re spending too much time with kids.” He judged him.

“If you knew where you were, then how did you not know what happened?” Surely the bombings in Sokovia were known around the world, right? Wait, so if their mother sent them away to live with the people he knew as his parents, then that meant his mother might be alive too. “Who was she? Our mother? Is she still alive?” His voice was softer than before. He had to know. His entire life was being turned upside down in this moment so he had to know. What else did he not know?

Yes the war, again Erik sighed, nothing was black or white in this story even if it could be hard to believe. “Grace.” Saying her name was weird after all those years. “Her name was Grace, she was sick and she died when you and your sister were nine.” He let a silence after that, letting Pietro handling the information before saying more. “She was already sick when she got pregnant, that why she gave you to this couple, she knew she will never be able to raise you properly and she never wanted you to become the children of a wanted man, to follow this style of life, it wasn’t a way to raise children. We argued about that, a lot, and she decided to hide you two from me. She was a stubborn woman and when I found you and your sister I came back to her, I told her I knew and she made me promise to not return in Sokovia, no matter what.” Erik sighed, remembering this moment. “I loved her, despite what our arguments, I loved your mother and she deeply loved you. Do you understand?”

“I’m seventeen.” he answered, “My powers came in a few months ago and they’re still evolving…” And he was terrified of them. 

“Then yes, fear is a normal process, you can fear your powers as much as people can fear you but one day you will overcome them.” Erik replied, not saying if this “them” was about the powers or the people.

 “Attracting offer Charles, really attractive one.” Erik replied with a serious but joking tone. “Glad to see you didn’t turn green, even if it could have explained a lot.”

[magneticus-erik]

elixirofgold‌:

“U-umm,” the still ebony skinned mutant gulped, “H-have you ever been scared of what you can do?”

“Scared?” Erik took a deep breath and replied with his own question. “How old are you?”

[magneticus-erik]

didnseethatcomingpietro‌:

“Than how about you explain to me why you left us! Or how you decided to just let us grow up on the streets after our parents were killed?”

Erik sighed, he knew he couldn’t avoid this conversation, fact was he didn’t feel regretful about what happened, at least not anymore. Also, he knew that one day he will have to explain everything and he had decided days ago to be honest about what and why, when this day will arrive. This day was today. “I didn’t knew.” Yes, that was that simple. “Your mother was the one who decided to send you and your sister in Sokovia, hiding you two from me by giving you to this couple who became your parents. I never knew what happened to them and if I regret something, it’s that.” Again Erik sighed but continued his explanation. “If you want to blame me, you can, your mother only tried to give you a better life. I wasn’t the best dad you could have at this time, she probably did the best by sending you two far from me. After this, I looked for you and I did find you, you were eight and you were happy, your parents were alive, what kind of man would have been by dragging you out of this?” 

[magneticus-erik]

didnseethatcomingpietro‌:

“Because you’re you. And what kind of man abandons his own kids?”

“What a poor esteem you have. I wasn’t. You are my son and do not blame me for something you don’t know Pietro.”

[magneticus-erik]

didnseethatcomingpietro‌:

“Don’t play dumb with me,” Pietro growled, “What you said after you attacked that rally. Is it true?”

“Why would I lie about that?”

[magneticus-erik]

xthegoodsheperdx‌:

“Of course, you show up  ….now. My worst headache”

“Pleasure shared old man but be kind and pipe down, you’re contagious.” Why didn’t he take his helmet already? Oh yeah, stupid politeness.

[magneticus-erik]

didnseethatcomingpietro‌:

Pietro ground his teeth together, crossing his arms as he stood at Erik….his father. “I have questions and I know the man who took my sister. Before I talk about her, I need to know…..is it true?”

“What?” Oh, Erik knew what Pietro wasn’t talking about, but still, he asked.

[magneticus-erik]

elixirofgold‌:

“U-umm.. Y-yes Sir… I… I wanted some advice… Please.”

“Well... speak.”

[magneticus-erik]

didnseethatcomingpietro‌:

“I am.”

“I think we both know why.’

“For someone like you, you took your time.” Erik teased with a little smile, actually not surprised of his son presence. “Questions? Or is it about your sister?”
