edwin became a tiefling after the 'ardor sacrifice' incident at st. hilarion's.

charles rowland, a student from his class, had saved his life - pulling him from the flames of sacrifice, beating a couple of the other boys down with his bat along the way.

a week later, the boys on charles' team tried to kill him by stoning him in the lake. edwin found him afterwards and brought him to the school attic to warm him up and tend to his wounds.

this was the first time charles truly saw edwin's new form - the night of the incident, edwin had run away so fast, and he'd been wearing a cloak to school ever since. they didn't share any classes, and while he'd heard about the 'boy with horns,' he didn't see what they'd meant.

"don't matter one bit to me, mate."

the boys escaped st hilarion's. they were no longer welcome - a human-turned-tiefling "mary ann" and the stupid human that saved such an "abomination" were not welcome. besides, charles had only made it into such a prestigious school with a sports scholarship, anyways, and his leg was horribly injured in the lake incident.

ten years later, the boys are 26, and they're solving cases together as the "dead boy detectives." (edwin said he had "died" that night in the basement, and charles only started living when they ran away from the school).

edwin stares at himself in the mirror. his skin is a 'hideous' shade of blue, the whites of his eyes were now black, the runes from the sacrifice had been burned into his face, and one of his horns had been broken during a case. he called himself an abomination.

charles had his own flaws. there was a scar over his lip from one of the rocks thrown at him, his lips were tinted blue - something edwin could never heal away from the hypothermia - but that was 'it,' he supposed.

edwin never forgave himself for what happened to charles. the scar, the lips - they were reminders that, because of edwin, charles had his life ruined.

but charles didn't see it that way.

one night, he held edwin, running his fingers over his horns, kissing the burn scar across his face (his cold lips could soothe the burn, he told him jokingly), and reminded him how beautiful he was. how 'blue was his color,' how the 'runes in his skin were badass,' or how 'the black makes his emerald eyes glow.'

to charles, nothing else was more true - edwin payne was beautiful, tiefling or not.

Is there any fic where one of the two is a mutant and the other isn't? Or at least one of them doesn't know he's a mutant, sorry if this request is too specific, it probably doesn't exist, I just want to be sure 😭😭

Here's a post with some great recommendations for Human!Charles fics!

And here are a few more to add to the list!

Magneto, Would You Fall In Love With A Human? by CherikDogFood

Erik Lehnsherr, better known as Magneto, is a famous activist of Mutant Rights and Leader of the Brotherhood. Unknown to the public, he's in love (and married) to Charles Xavier, a human. Erik strives to keep his private love life a secret from prying journalists, but there are bound to be slip-ups...

Or, 5 times Magneto almost (accidentally) exposed his love life plus 1 time he did it intentionally.

Sub/Dom pairs are created by imprinting. Mutants generally imprint on mutants and Erik who is the most powerful among them thinks that he will have equally powerful sub. Turns out that he imprints on Charles – a brilliant yet entirely human Professor. Cue Erik being disgusted and angry with his Sub, which Charles takes really hard. Erik is ashamed of him, and doesn’t want him to associate with other mutants, but slowly Charles charms his way to the hearts of everyone and one day another mutant (Logan pretty please?) challenges Erik’s claim over Xavier.

It took a bit of nudging from Raven, who had told Magneto that her brother is not like other humans, he’s totally different and he is so so kind, and Erik come on—he could clean the base for us?

And Charles had said, oh yes, in fact I could cook and do everyone’s laundry, please let me stay with my sister?

And Magneto, who could not have been any older than twenty-one at that time, had considered what a hassle it was to clean after a bunch of mutants, and said: Yes, sure. He can stay.

Hip to Be Square by seutedeern

The year is 1985. Humans and mutants have lived together for a hundred years and now co-exist peacefully.

That is, outside of high school. Charles Xavier happens to be an ordinary human being, but that's not the worst of his troubles. He's a true geek, with so few friends he could count them on two fingers, and he also happens to be the school's favourite victim.

Erik has always looked down upon humans without any powers, thinking he is superior to them.

Naturally, he's not pleased at all when for some unknown reason, Charles latches onto him after only one lesson of group work as though they were the best of friends.

Just a little drawing of an idea I had, the boys sleeping together cause Andy got drunk enough to allow it

They're so cute

Charles I dare you to kiss Barry (you can kill me after)

Human au where the friend split is niko-edwin charles-crystal are great but concider niko-charles and crystal-edwin human friendships...

Niko and charles are high school friends (maybe they even dated before Niko came out) who watch movies together. Charles even plays his music while Niko reads sometimes. She comes to his sports games (cus you know he's not just on one team) and they listen to chappel roan and get ice cream after.

Crystal and Edwin are begrudging besties. They worked at the same place or their rich parents were friends and the forced proximity and bitchy attitudes bonded them forever. They go shopping and complain over brunch at some fancy restaurant and they both get wildly offended when people suggest they're dating.

watching dofp & i love that future charles is so vague w his warning to logan like. tf u mean “be patient w me” u were a DEPRESSED DIVORCED DRUG ADDICT with a DRINKING PROBLEM i think bro deserved a little more of a heads up

[carebeardean]

some @technically-human appreciation! ur art always makes me smile kick my feet giggle :) free phone wallpapers anyone can use !

[edwinisms]

I feel like in the chaos of things they kinda glossed over possibly the most viscerally horrifying scene and concept in the show, ie; “…where did all the blood go?” “that was the last me,” and charles slowly lifting his lantern up to see the doll spider literally tearing edwin– not just a replica of edwin but literally the body of edwin from just a minute or two earlier– apart limb from limb, torn in half at the waist. then as he moves the lantern a bit to the side he’s met with an entire bloody pile of dismembered, decapitated, eviscerated edwin parts, from god knows how many killings.

like. charles must have persistent fucking nightmares about that right? in the moment he was focused on getting out of there and had to stomach it to move on, but afterwards? i think that must legitimately be the most gruesome, graphic thing he’s ever seen in his entire life/afterlife. i can’t think of anything that could be worse than that. it’s bad enough on it’s own, the live, constant mutilation happening to anyone, but then on top of it all it’s not just anyone– it’s his best friend, the most important person in the world to him.

ghosts can’t exactly sleep, but he must at least get flashbacks, or be triggered on occasion to an extent that makes him feel sick. i dont even know what that'd do to a person honestly, but it'd be hard (if not impossible) even for a pro-internalizer like charles to suppress that memory completely and not be tortured by it for an indefinite amount of time.

i'm looking for some fic recs where charles is a human and erik is cold/cruel to him because of his mutant supremacy ideology; i think you might have made a fic rec list for this topic before but i can't seem to find it! if there's a link, that would be lovely :D ty and have a great day!

Thanks for your patience, Anon! Here's a list of fics with human!Charles and mutant!Erik as requested. You asked for stories with Erik being cold/cruel so I've left off fics that were more cracky/humorous FYI :D

Let Them Talk by manic_intent

Written as an Option A (Logan Wins) follow-up to the first anon fic for the kmeme prompt: "There are stories where Charles is Erik’s sub and they are both happy, but what about some more angsty theme? AU where mutants and humans live together but mutants think themselves more important and often treat humans like dirt. Sub/Dom pairs are created by imprinting. Mutants generally imprint on mutants and Erik who is the most powerful among them thinks that he will have equally powerful sub. Turns out that he imprints on Charles – a brilliant yet entirely human Professor. Cue Erik being disgusted and angry with his Sub, which Charles takes really hard. Erik is ashamed of him, and doesn’t want him to associate with other mutants, but slowly Charles charms his way to the hearts of everyone and one day another mutant (Logan pretty please?) challenges Erik’s claim over Xavier."

Imprint – PoorMedea

Inspired by, but not actually a fill for, this prompt: Charles/Erik Unwanted sub: There are stories where Charles is Erik’s sub and they are both happy, but what about some more angsty theme? AU where mutants and humans live together but mutants think themselves more important and often treat humans like dirt. Sub/Dom pairs are created by imprinting. Mutants generally imprint on mutants and Erik who is the most powerful among them thinks that he will have equally powerful sub. Turns out that he imprints on Charles – a brilliant yet entirely human Professor.

The moment of imprinting: overpowering, irresistible, and most importantly, uncontrollable. As Charles and Erik are about to find out.

Everyday Love in Stockholm – tahariel

Prompt: Magneto is the ruler of the posthuman world. His only secret? Charles Xavier, the human he’s kept locked in his bedroom ever since his right-hand woman, Mystique, came to him pleading for mercy for her stepbrother, who accepted her mutant form and protected her as a child. The human he started fucking after Mystique was killed in battle, despite the guilt he feels at contaminating even this last promise to the woman who was integral to his life’s work and happiness.

Spätzünder–  InsertSthMeaningful

Erik doesn’t like Charles Xavier. Not one bit. Not his impeccable mannerisms, not his spotless clothes, not his winning smile. Or how the human likes to curry favor with literally every mutant or other member of oppressed minorities he encounters.

Still, there is something about his fellow college student that intrigues Erik. Makes him want to push the boy, tear down his arguments, and, just to shut him up, kiss his cherry red-

Oh.

Maybe falling for a human isn’t that bad. Certainly worth a try. Especially since Xavier doesn’t seem to be averse to the idea himself. But months later, things change. Or rather, a certain someone does. And nothing is ever going to be the same.

A Bit of Fun by Anon on the kinkmeme Charles is Erik’s forever - the man he wants to spend the rest of his life with and can’t imagine his future without. So why is he saying that Charles is nothing more that his temporary bit of fun? (Hint: Modern!AU with Mutant!Erik and Human!Charles.)

Fallen Days by rosesinthedark (WIP)

Erik is a King and a mutant and isn't happy when he has to marry Charles, a Prince and a human. Charles is ignored for much of the time until he becomes pregnant and therefore obviously not human. Erik then changes his attitude towards him drastically, but Charles keeps conversation between them guarded, making Erik realise how cruel his behaviour had been.

[suzieloveships]

The way Michael Fassbender and James Mcavoy talked about Erik and Charles and how Hugh Jackman and Ryan Reynolds talked about Logan and Wade but also how Josh Brolin talked Wade and Nate and him calling a scene where DP falls balls first on Cable's face a "sex scene" and also Tom Hardy saying that Eddie and Venom "are aligned by the stars, are meant to be"...

I hope Joseph Quinn knows I expect similar energy from him next year if someone ask him about Johnny and Peter relationship while he is promoting Fantastic Four

[askspidertrain]

hi Charls, have you ever met Edward face to face?

[ironicallyenraptured]

Oh... he's mad...

So... Old yandere fanart

I love ya, Charles

This drawing is old so sorry if I don't show the base 😔

[guardianspirits13]

DBD au where Charles is an art student and Edwin haunts the arts building because his bones are used for still lives and studies there, inspired by my high school art classroom which had a box with human bones on top of the supplies cabinet that nobody knew the origin of.
