Charles comes back the next day. Erik catches sight of the car as it comes up the drive and waits by the door. He’s feeling rather proud of himself. The mansion didn’t burn down, everybody got fed something (mostly cereal), and he even told little Ororo a bedtime story, though Raven slapped a hand over his mouth when he got to the bit about cutting off the toes.
Charles pulls up in a spray of gravel and exits the car triumphant, with a new recruit in tow. The kid is about thirteen and looks bewildered.
‘You must come and say hello to everyone! They’ll be so delighted,’ Charles is enthusing as Erik comes up to them. ‘Oh, look, here’s my favourite caped crusader. Pookie-wookie, I’d like you to meet Bobby Drake.’
Bobby gazes up at Erik in a sort of awed horror. ‘Hello, Mr… uh…?’
‘Erik Lehnsherr,’ Erik snaps. His expression is designed to convey the words, And don’t you forget it‘And this is Alex, and Raven, and Jean and Ororo,’ Charles continues blithely. Bobby greets them with evident relief and they bear him off to show him his

When Charles picks up an unusual cluster of mutants who seemed to be in trouble, it doesn’t take long to trace them to a CIA building. It’s their first honest-to-god mission since Cuba, and it’s a bit of an adrenalin rush. Being a teacher doesn’t quite have the level of terror and intimidation Erik’s used to

The children are surprisingly quiet as they wait for class to begin. Possibly it’s the presence of both himself and Charles. They’re all gripping notepads and looking very attentive

Eventually, Hank and Raven corner him in the smaller east drawing room, looking respectively pleading and stubborn.
‘What do you want?’ Erik asks.
They glance at each other. ‘It’s the names,’ Raven admits. ‘The terrible, terrible names that Charles calls you, the ones that make me ashamed to be his brother.’
Erik glares at her. ‘How is that any of your business?’
‘We want to help,’ Hank says earnestly. ‘I’m sure he wouldn’t do it if he knew how much it embarrassed you.’
‘Yeah, Erik,’ Raven says. Can’t you do something about it? Look, just tell him to stop.’
‘No,’ he snaps. ‘Bugger off, both of you.’
‘Why not?’ Raven whines.
Well, for a start, Erik thinks, he might actually stop. He remembers Charles’s hand on his hair and his fond, Go back to sleep, cootchie-pieNobody else has ever called him cootchie-pie. Or snugglebunny. Or groovy-genes. Or neato Magneto

Hello again! I wish I were a genius but sadly everything I touch turns to crack... it's a disease.
Still, glad this one made people smile :D
I promise there will be more Doctor Who at some stage... another 30,000 words and we might get to the part you actually requested. And look, I am growing as a livejournaler (journalist?), I have more than one icon!

And I love the little angsty-sweetness of Erik secretly liking having someone calling him by endearing nicknames. <3
