The one where Erik develops holiday anxiety. Charles/Erik anonymous June 6 2011, 06:16:55 UTC
I feel weird prompting this, but.

It's obviously an AU of sorts. Everyone is spending the holiday season at the Mansion and because of Erik not wanting to celebrate hannukah (all the memories it dredges up), they do a secret santa of sorts.

Hank sets up some sort of system that selects for them. Que Erik going to his lab late one night and threatening to kill him with his own metal framed glasses if he doesn't rig the system so that he gets Charles.

But once he gets him, it all goes down hill. He doesn't know what to do. He doesn't know what the perfect gift to Charles would be. Next thing we know, Erik is leaving for extended periods of time (going to small antique shops and shopping malls). He might come back one time muttering about the French and how they're trying to ruin his woo'ing. Everyone is suspicious he's planning something bad. Charles is pensive and answers everyone's questions as vaguely as possible. Erik's probably sure he's losing hair from the stress.

Whatever happens next is up to you. :D??

There is no correct way to spell it in English, seriously. I've seen it about 8 different ways...

There are multiple spellings - some with two n's, some with one. Some with ch, some with n. All are welcome! :D

I knew someone who gave up entirely, tried to spell it X-nukkah, and then realized that left the other half of the word.
Oh Hebrew, why so hard to Anglicanize?
It makes writing my Chanukkah cards so confusing.

I would also like to know what the other students give each other! This could be so cute, and I'd love if it were expanded to include multiple pairings.

The cuteness potential of this is overwhelming. ♥
