The world ends, but life goes on.
Seventeen-year-old Erik Lehnsherr has never left the underground shelter that protects a small band of survivors from an Earth wracked with radiation as its magnetic poles reverse. When the settlement encounters a deadly threat, he embarks on a dangerous odyssey with new arrival, walking encyclopedia, and enormous pain-in-the-ass Charles Xavier in the hopes they can find what they need to save the settlement—before the coming winter or unpredictable magnetic storms bring death to not just them, but everyone they love.
for cherik bingo! next chapter in two weeks.

#erik: FINE. you can have alex but IM GETTING RAVEN #charles: WHAT? #charles: WHAT ABOUT THE GARDEN I WAS PLANNING #charles: YOURE GONNA CHOOSE BLOWING UP TO GOVERNMENT OVER SITTING IN THE SUN WITH ME WHILE I FEED YOU FRUIT???? (via professorxsmokesweed)
charles in first class: hahaha yes of course erik and i will be in love forever and ever and i will buy him fancy little turtlenecks in whatever color he wants and he will no longer have to kill anyone because he is living with me and i cant cook so he’s gonna have to make dinner for us and the children every night but i’ll hang out in the kitchen with him while he does it and we’ll play chess all the time and i’ll leave sometimes to go give lectures on genetics or mutations but i’ll always come back and he’ll watch the kids and we’ll work together to help other mutants and i’ll teach them academics and he can teach them how to hot wire cars and i’ll make sure he smiles every single day and-

Years ago, two boys found their way to Emma Frost's children's home for freaks and wonders.
Today, it's 1946, the war is over, and sixteen-year-old Erik has a motorcycle and nowhere to be until dawn.

i love @jackyjango 's cherik polls because it's a very quick guide to seeing what fanon interpretations are widespread so i can immediately write the opposite 😂

after much ethnographic immersion, i have determined that as of 2022, there's actually a roughly equal number of erik stans & charles stans in the current cherik fandom. they just happen to exist in entirely separate spheres & seem to be unaware that the other group exists. if you are suffering from fandom fatigue as a result of feeling that everyone else woobifies your unfavorite, i recommend some kind of cultural exchange that would expose you to a different circle of cherik shippers, because the one thing we can all agree on is that anons whining that everyone else in fandom is so stupid & wrong & annoying is possibly the most annoying thing of all.

My #1 post of 2022
but ALSO ON THE OTHER HAND the failure of telepathy. erik who is like "ah so he knows i am a monster" and just goes on like that glumly but also doesn't bother telling charles anything about himself because he already knows, surely he already knows. erik who makes charles his arbitrator of what is good and moral and thinks A Good Person Would Be Against Me Killing Shaw even knowing that he killed my mom, experimented on me, that his death is the only thing that has allowed me to keep putting one foot in front of the other instead of just lying down and dying, this man who knows everything about me and therefore gives me exactly what i am worth and it is the tenderness of friendship but no more, it is sitting three feet away from me in his study. and meanwhile charles is like :) can't wait to get to know him as a real person more than just what my telepathy can tell me because charles knows better than anyone that it doesn't matter what you think and that who you are is defined by what you choose to do (which is why he should convert and not just to give edie the satisfaction of marrying her child off to a nice jewish boy)

In 1896, Erik met a foreign agent from the Free State of Genosha, and they fell in love, though his duty as a dragon-captain of the German Empire kept them apart.
In 1899, Charles has been captured, and Erik has finally chosen where his heart lies.
a temeraire fusion + no, don’t look at how since ike’s last birthday gift i’ve only posted two things 😬

[IMAGE DESCRIPTION:
a reddit-style post with supposedly 6.3K upvotes and a header "AITA for..." reading, "I [30ishM, you don't need any more details] have devoted my entire life to tracking and killing a man [hard to say? at least 50M but he looks the same as when I knew him] who murdered my mother, experimented on me as a child, and played a not inconsiderable role in a genocidal effort to wipe out my people. I finally got in the same room (more or less) with him only to be stymied by a couple of his bodyguards, who threw me in the ocean. Fully willing to die if it meant he would not live another day, I sabotaged certain key components of the ship he was on, but he and his cronies escaped in a hidden submarine. I tried to stop them with certain skills of mine, but the effort dragged me underwater. Meanwhile, a complete stranger [20-30ishM, I'm not good with ages] has apparently leapt from a different ship that was trying to stage a confrontation with my nemesis (a US government ship, if that tells you anything) and is trying to drag me above water even though I'm like 80% confident I could've at least killed him before I drowned. In the commotion, my quarry got away. Strange man, possibly my soulmate, insists that I am not alone anymore and that somehow (?) this means I should join him and his fellow government stooges to stop a wider scheme being orchestrated by my mortal enemy. I haven't said anything one way or another yet, and all his CIA friends look like they're getting impatient. But he's the one who kept me from fulfilling my life's purpose and only reason to continue existing, so AITA? "Some factors to consider: "* It was MY decision whether or not I should keep trying to kill this bastard, and potential future husband seems like he didn't respect my bodily autonomy when he tried to stop me? It's my life and I decide what to throw it away on. Feels kind of like he crossed a line? "* I won't get into details, but the way he communicated with me that first time was kind of weirdly intimate and intense, like he skipped past all the talking and sign language and starting communicating right with my soul, and I couldn't keep any thought from him no matter how much I wanted to. Inappropriate for a first meeting? "* He's really hot. I mean, it's not my fault for taking so long to make a decision when he's always just around looking smug and biteable. Do I want to avenge my mother's death? Yes. Do I want to hit that? Also yes. I'm pretty sure that if I fucked him and left that would make me TA, but I'm also pretty sure that if I joined him and adopted his ineffectual hand-wringing pacifist ideals I would also be an A. You see my dilemma."
a reddit-style comment from u/ExcusesRUs_BOT, with a green flair bubble "Not the A-hole," reading, "NTA. "It's your life. "But I have to say, it does seem like you're being pulled along by this guy. "I mean, you say you're 80% sure you could have killed him before you drowned. "If it seems like you're just going along to kowtow to this guy and his weirdo idealism, that might be reason enough to say no. "It's a big decision, and no one but you can answer the question, but are you actually feeling like this is your path, or is he just leading you along because you look like you could be potentially opened up to a new way of looking at things?"
a reddit-style comment from u/SanAndreasYourFault_BOT, with a red flair bubble "Asshole," reading, "YTA for not making a decision. Are you really that confused about this?"
a reddit-style comment from u/SanAndreasYourFault_BOT, with a red flair button "Asshole," reading, "YTA. "You don't have to justify your actions to anyone, and if you have the choice between someone being murdered or letting that person go free where they will continuously menace the world because "now we can finally be together", I would pick murderer every time. I mean, hell, even serial killers get some happiness in life sometimes - what's so wrong with revenge? If you love him as much as he loves you it should be worth going through all of that for a shot of retribution. You're throwing away an opportunity for catharsis and closure simply because it wasn't *his* style of revenge, not because it didn't fit your ego of being a "strong female character"."
a reddit-style comment from u/SplitTheBaby_BOT, with a blue flair bubble "Toss-Up," reading, "NTA. You're a murderer's worst nightmare and he is the world's most eligible bachelor. You need to decide which you want to be."
a reddit-style comment from u/SplitTheBaby_BOT, with a blue flair bubble "toss-up," reading, "NAH. "My Take: First of all, thank you for your service. "I think you're giving this stranger way too much power. You've spent a lifetime trying to solve this case, and now that you're within grasp of your enemy you want to give up? Are you that desperate for peace? "If you join this guy, you're essentially saying you're ready to put this whole thing behind you, and that's fine, but don't be surprised if he never lets you go. He'll probably want to keep you around for intel, and for possible future battles, and you'll probably like it, but don't be surprised if he keeps you locked up somewhere, or keeps you on a tight leash. "You're only in your 30s, you have plenty of time to catch this guy and kill him, but you're also still young enough that you might not want to spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder."
a reddit-style comment from u/SplitTheBaby_BOT, with a blue flair bubble "Toss-up," reading, "NTA. "Your potential future husband is TA. "Your potential future husband is not your soulmate. "Your potential future husband does not get to insist that you join his government team to stop a wider scheme being run by your mortal enemy. "Your potential future husband is not making the most important decision of his life so far. "Your potential future husband is not looking smug and biteable. "Your potential future husband is being ridiculous."
a reddit-style comment from u/SplitTheBaby_BOT, with a blue flair bubble "Toss-up," reading, "NTA. You wont be an A for choosing not to follow this man, no matter how attractive he is. "Also, you wont be an A for not telling us whether you fucked him or not."
a reddit-style comment from u/SplitTheBaby_BOT, with a blue flair button "Toss-up," reading, "NAH. He's probably just lonely and wants a friend. You're both at fault here. Take some time to think things over and you'll probably be fine. If you're not, well, at least you died trying, right? "If you are able to some day, try to make it up to him for putting him through all this by being really understanding and kind. He probably wants to forget about everything that happened, too."
