Erik is cooking omelets and thinking fondly of the way Charles looked in the pre-dawn light, eyelashes fluttering, body curled toward Erik like a flower toward the sun, when his reverie is rudely interrupted.
"What the hell are you doing down here?" Raven yells, grabbing the whisk from him and shaking it in his face. Drops of egg fly wildly. "When I said 'stay the night' I meant until Charles woke up, not just until dawn! Making breakfast does not supersede being there when Charles wakes up

Haha, thank you. Also, I just saw a gif of a person (well, a stick figure) vomiting rainbows somewhere on this meme and it was actually pretty fantastic.

Hi there, de-anon'd author! *waves*
So, this fic? Was adorable beyond the telling of it. Seriously - so frickin' adorable. To the point where I was giggling in numerous places as I read, despite the fact that I am currently sitting in a public space.
Anyway, my embarrassingly gleeful reactions to this story aside, I was wondering... would it be alright with you if I made a podfic of "Date Night"? (Podfic = books-on-tape for fanfic, should you be unfamiliar with the term) I pinky-swear that I will not deliberately mispronounce anything, and I'll be sure to give you authorial credit. I'll link back to the text so that people can read your awesome work of fantasticness (or, if you re-post this fic to your personal journal, I'll link back there) - and I'll be sure to send you a link to the finished podfic. Pretty please? It'll be such a fun time for everyone, I swear...and, the rest of the podfic-listening internet needs more XMFC stories to listen to!

Thanks for the kind comment! Sadly, this is my only X-Men fic for the moment, but I think I've written awkward dating fic in several other fandoms too, lol.

Oh. I never knew how much I needed this in my life. I was constantly caught between giggling like a 5 year old with a sugar rush, or just plain shrieking at the epic freaking cuteness of it all. I loved this. So very, very much.

This...was so hilarious and so well written with all the characters in character with their various antics, speeches and overall behavior.
In other words, I AM GRINNING LIKE A MANIAC AND AM INCONSPICUOUSLY USING A HANDKERCHIEF TO HIDE IT SO MY MOTHER DOES NOT THINK ME AS CRAZY :)
Thank you SO much for this wonderful fic and lovely piece of entertainment! I LOVE humorous snippets of Erik/Charles and you have fulfilled my expectations perfectly :) Seriously, I cannot stop grinning. And yeah, go Mr Lensherr!

AWESOME IS WHAT IT IS.
Also?
How hard our children worked?
THIS WAS SWEET AND ADORABLE AND MAKES ME WANT TO VOMIT RAINBOWS AND HAPPINESS. A disturbing image but never the less true.
YOU ARE FANTASTIC. I am off to reread this. ♥

"I will endeavor to make sure that he is from this point forward," Erik promises.
Oh, god, I will just imagine Erik made such a promise and kept it.
This was so sweet and funny! And like Erik, I am just about flailing at the image of Charles in Erik's jacket.
I love your Raven and the boys!
I love everything about this, basically. <33333333
