Mutations, True Love and Plot. Somewhere. Probably
Dearest darlingest flist, let me tell you a story about gay mutants.
No, really, X-men First Class is possibly the slashiest thing I’ve seen in…ooh, about a day ;P
Cut for masses and masses of spoilers. Like the entire plot, as seen through the eyes of someone who only cared about the gay bits.
But it was really good! Starts off with little!Erik (…depressing and filled with Nazi doctors that seem a little too interested in the young boy standing next to them. In a ‘here, I’ll kill people you care about until you prove you’re a mutant, and then touch you whilst calling you ‘son’’ sort of way) and little!Charles meeting tiny!little!Mystique and deciding to adopt her.
Too cute for words XD
And then you get them living at Oxford, Charles using the same line about fascinating mutations on every girl he sees down the pub and Raven cockblocking him at every turn. Erik meanwhile is doing the Double-O-Bastard thing and going from country to country killing lots of Nazis in an attempt to find the creepy doctor that fucked up his life.
…it’s surprisingly hot, watching him be so badass. Also turns out people that can speak that many languages don’t even have to try to be attractive to me.
There is plot, the Americans are idiots and need someone who’s an expert in mutations, blah, blah, all ends up with Charles on a boat in Miami trying to catch the bad guy whilst Erik is there trying to stop a submarine from escaping with just his mind.
Yeah, it doesn’t work. And he’s about to drown, the idiot, so Charles jumps off the ship he’s on to rescue Erik and tell him to calm his mind. Erik is surprised to have someone talking inside his head, oddly enough.
“I thought I was the only one.”
“You’re not alone any more”
that kind of thing :D
More plot, they need to recruit mutants to help the CIA fight evil and communists and prevent WW3 so Erik and Charles go off on a giant road trip round the world talking to all the mutants Charles finds, whilst having champagne and flirting outrageously.
Which obviously means they walk into a bar with Wolverine drinking himself into a stupor.
…Well, if anyone’s old enough to tell them to go fuck themselves and have it work, it’s him *shrugs*
There’s a baby team of xmen who are a bit rubbish and like to show off their powers and get drunk. There is more to it but twitter didn’t get all my tweets apparently and I expect they’ll appear tomorrow or something and kill everyone’s feeds. Just know they all made sense at the time of typing, even if they do mention slinkies. There’s an Alex, he survives, possibly being the first Alex to not get mistreated horribly on film. The team is so so wonderful and cute together, they bicker and call each other nicknames and invent all the codenames for each other *pets* And of course Charles and Erik are there the entire time *coughs living together coughs* eyesexing like it’s going out of style and trying not to fight in front of the children.
There is telepathic memory sharing between them. Yeah. Try and make that scene straight in any way. Charles shows him how to be a million times more powerful and calls him amazing. Erik doesn’t sleep with his sister (at first anyway). If that’s not true love I just don’t know what is ‘cause she is HOT *g*
The end has to happen, obviously, you know it’s coming and that’s the only way for it to go but it’s heartbreaking. ‘You did this’ *sobs*
Yeah. so.
I want fic *whines* Fic in what must clearly be months that Erik and Charles were travelling round the globe recruiting a team and being all ‘look what I can do, darling, isn’t it impressive’. I don’t care if they have sex or not (although they really really need to) but there needs to be fic of them being so very married, yup.
*goes searching for some*
…have managed to dye my hands orange leaning on a post-it note. Is that the kind of thing that comes off with soap?
