    Summary

    For some reason, people thought that Charles's telepathy was like turning a light on and off. That, if he wanted to rummage around someone's head, he would just flick a switch and dive in to his heart's content, and once he was done, he could tug on the switch and be just like everyone else.

    But telepathy wasn't like a light to be turned on and off. It was more akin to breathing. Charles could hold his breath for a short while, but there was really only one way to stop breathing completely, wasn't there?

    So, like that, Charles turned off the light.

    Summary

    The aftermath of 'Turn off the light':

    When people say that you see the light when you meet death, they should really say that when you die you take the light with you. Because Charles was dead, and suddenly everything was dark, and yet some things were made clear. In the darkness, the people left behind realise what it really means when they say to not take anything for granted. They realise their mistakes, their biases, the hurt that they unwittingly conjured - and what really hurts is that they only realised once it was too late. The light had already been turned off and taken away, and there was no power in the world that could turn it on again.

    Summary

    "...is that he had to die, for our dream to live."

    A stray bullet on the beach in Cuba killed Charles Xavier. Years later, Erik Lehnsherr- escaped from the prison beneath the Pentagon, on the run from all authorities- returns to the mansion in Westchester, which was closed off after the death of its owner and has not been inhabited for years...

    At least, not by anyone still living.

    Summary

    Erik looked at him, wondering how he was supposed to answer that question. It wasn’t an easy one. Or it was, but it wasn’t easy to find it in himself to say the words. Communication was never his strong point, especially when it came to his emotions.

    “I’m sorry,” He whispered softly, “I couldn’t stay away. I needed to see you, to know how you are. I needed to say I’m sorry for what happened. I know it doesn’t change anything but I wanted to say it and I never meant to hurt you. That was the last thing I ever wanted to do. If I could I would go back and never deflect that bullet. But I know that doesn’t change anything, talking about what I should’ve done or could’ve done.”
    -
    After the beach divorce, Erik comes to his senses and returns to Charles, just hoping the man would forgive him for the unforgivable.

    Summary

    Charles had braced himself for the pain. He knew that when Erik would push the coin through Shaw's head that he would inadvertently push it into his. He knew that he would feel the slow, torturous drag of metal through his skin, his brain tissue, his mind. He had even prepared for the heartbreak and the betrayal, because once Erik had put on Shaw's helmet, Charles's heart had already shattered to pieces.

    But when Charles's mind was fractured by the coin, he hadn't been prepared to lose a part of himself he could not bear to live without.

    Because without a mind he had no telepathy, and without telepathy, Charles was...

    Human.

     

    Or: Charles loses his telepathy after Cuba, and all the pain that follows.

    Summary

    Anthropocene: (noun) the current geological age, viewed as the period during which human activity has been the dominant influence on climate and the environment.

    This is a story about how across timelines, across universes, it's always them: Steve Rogers and Tony Stark, and how their relationship will always influence those around them. This about them getting it right, over and over again, until it sticks.

    (A soulmate AU, and eventually a civil war fix-it.)

    Summary

    They were on the opposite side of a needless battle once more. When all was said and done and he and Erik both had sent the mutants under their protection away, all that remained was them and whatever painfully familiar, disconnected conversation they'd try to have again.

    It'd fail to lead to common ground, Charles knew, just like it had every time since he'd said no to Erik on the beach. They'd go their separate ways once more, and the gaping wound in his mind from Erik's absence would only continue to grow.

    Charles tried anyway, one final effort to bridge the distance between them. "I felt Shaw die."
