Erik is forced to repeat that day until he stops being an asshole.

It's 12:01, the clock on the wall informs him as he rubs at his gritty eyes, trying to shake the feeling of sand between his fingers.

Something is wrong.

He's done this already, he thinks, not once but twice, and that's impossible.

Of course, yesterday-yesterday?-he moved a satellite dish, and he wouldn't have thought that could happen until it did.

He tugs on his clothes (soon enough he'll swap them for a uniform, black and yellow and marking his allegiance to a cause he barely believes in anymore), uneasy down to his bones, because he remembers today. He remembers what happens. And it's all going to happen again.

It's 12:01, the clock on the wall informs him as he rubs at his gritty eyes, trying to shake the feeling of sand between his fingers.

It's Day 5. Erik leans against the wall for a moment just for the solidity of it, cool and real under his hands. Someone, or something, is toying with him and he is no one's plaything, not ever again.

Day 5 is entirely unworthy of note through breakfast (as ready as I'll ever be ( ... )

AHHHHH. AHHHHHHH! Such an interesting take on the Groundhog Day line, that he remembers the past days as more dreamlike than an actual memory, so doesn't change until Day 5. Ah! And of course Charles still gets shot, oh, Magneto please wise up and stop being an a-hole. Shooting people doesn't make them like you; it just makes them dead.

Watching this like an F5-ing hawk!

On Day 6 Erik guides the missiles with one hand, uses the other to crumple Moira's gun before she can draw it. Charles is shouting about Erik's chance to prove he's the better man, and Erik finds himself grinning. He's alive, alive and well, well enough to nag, and Erik turns his attention from the explosions on the horizon just in time to see Azazel grab Charles by the waist and stab him, just at the base of his spine. It's a messier wound than the bullets ever caused and as the students rush forward, tearing at their costumes in an attempt to provide makeshift bandages, Erik shoves Azazel against the trunk of a palm tree, presses down lightly on his throat with one of his own knives.

"How dare you?" He demands, and Azazel frowns at him.

"He was trying to stop you," he says. "The missiles-did you not wish for them to find their targets?"
