you ever read a fic where basically charles and erik post-dofp had to get together in a roadtrip to stop a threat that was surging but charles was still highkey pissed at erik and they slowly start working together again and at the end they free a bunch of mutants from like a secret base and erik gets shot by a bunch of bullets? i know it's vague but i read it in 2014

TBH I haven’t read a ton of post-DOFP stories so I haven’t seen this one yet and it’s hard to search for. Maybe one of my followers will recognize it though?

Summary:  "Charles had always dreamt of seeing the Northern Lights."

Rating: Mature

Thoughts: I really love this idea because I can’t imagine a world where Charles was just content to rebuild without Erik and I really like the idea of him sort of trying to find him. This is done in a really lovely way.

Summary: The memories make you nostalgic; thinking of those days before this war started in earnest, when you were all just playing at being mutant the way young children play at being adults.

Rating: Teen

Warnings: References to Suicide

Thoughts: This is a really interesting Erik POV fic. It’s a little weird because it’s in first person but it seems to work well for this fic. I liked all the ideas in this fic and it’s a sweet ending.

Notes: The author submitted this and was super sweet about it. <3

Summary: The mansion was more full than Logan had ever seen it and the love and affection that the school contained practically radiated from its walls. It wasn't the same as before, Logan realised - it was better.

Rating: General

Thoughts: Cute little addition to the end of DOFP :3

hey someone asked about cherik fics with quicksilver in them and i recommend 'fathers and sons' by m_leigh its absolutely hilarious

Fathers and Sons by m_leigh

“I have an – interest – in Peter Maximoff,” Erik said, somewhat grudgingly, glaring. “A – familial – interest –”

Everybody stared at him.

“In that – mutantkind is one – large – family –” Erik said valiantly, if pathetically.

“Oh, shit,” Alex said. “No way. No way.”

Summary: Erik arrives at Westchester one night with a stolen government file labeled Xavier, C. and a bullet lodged in his side.

Rating: General

Warnings: Blood, wounds

Thoughts: IMO very realistic for how it might go after DOFP. A weird sort of not-Truce that hurts a little. Or maybe a lot.

Summary: In 1976, three years after D.C. and Trask, Erik returns to Charles's estate for the first time. What he's looking for, he doesn't entirely know, and doesn't know if he wants to find it.

Rating: General Audiences

Thoughts: IDEK how to respond to this because I'm full of feelings. I like the idea of Erik having to give up on his war because there's nobody willing to rally behind him. I like it a lot.

Summary: A few years after Wolverine's visit from the future, Charles finally tells Erik about his glimpse of their future selves.

Rating: General Audiences

Thoughts: Really cute. I find that this is what I want to happen post-movie
