Thinking about the fact that Erik probably spent years and years living under different assumed names while searching for Shaw in order to not leave a trail behind his Nazi hunting, and thus, Charles was probably the first person to call him by his real name since he was freed from Auschwitz.

X-Men: First Class as Vines

Because it's my favorite X-Men movie

I just saw Deadpoo & Wolverine and felt this was the right time to post this old video I made

Idk why I forgot Darwin's real name, he's literally one of my favorites, I'm so sorry

(This wasn't supposed to be 4 minutes, but I kept adding to it)

In a alternate universe somewhere Charles Xavier meets a man named Fester while he is sent as a little kid to the psych ward by his mother, whose mind is as insane as everyone inside the building but it’s paradoxically the calmest and most fascinating mind he has ever felt in his short life and he learns that he man is there ON VACATION of all things and he realizes that “no I’m not insane the voices are other people’s thoughts” way quicker with Fester’s help and he is kidnapped/adopted into the Addams clan where he and his telepathy flourishes

He comes back to the mansion at some point. Kurt Marko dies of mysterious circumstances. Sharon Xavier is… gently persuaded by a very convincing Morticia to hand over the custody of Charles. Cain and Pugsley become friends somehow and Cain learns the joys of dynamite.

They go live in the Xavier Mansion as a collective family vacation/ family trip/ family acclimation for Charles.

Then one day he meets a blue little girl in the kitchen and knows instantly that her and Wednesday are going to go so well together like a house on fire

And life is good

Than First Class happens and Erik is not ready for Charles Addams Xavier, he just isn’t

[uniquecellest]

I love the cherik fics I'm seeing and reading but seriously need more Charles being the mob boss and Erik a normal civilian that gets roped in. Erik being pregnant and kidnapped. Erik being used as a pawn against Charles. Charles doing things without consulting Erik to keep Erik safe.

Emma mind controlling Charles. Shaw somehow still able to use Erik as a pawn against Charles to taken the X-Men down from the inside. Apocalypse using Charles to keep Erik under his command

X-Men: First Class (2011)

[velvet4510]

The fact that after slowly and painfully murdering Shaw as revenge for the death of his mother, Erik then tries to slowly and painfully murder Moira as revenge for wounding Charles.

Like, it wasn’t the same situation. Unlike Erik’s mother, Charles is not killed by the bullet. Unlike Shaw, Moira does not fire a deadly bullet. And yet in that moment, Erik still places Moira on the same level as Shaw, his mother’s killer, in his mind just because she has injured Charles. And he doesn’t even know at that moment that it’s a paralyzing injury.

And to think I’ve actually heard some people claim that Erik doesn’t love Charles as much as Charles loves him???!!!!

Sudden thought, I wonder if Erik is actually not aware of Charles’ limitations. Erik meets Charles as the latter jumps into the ocean to save him. Charles is calm all through out. Seemingly not afraid to sacrifice OR knows he will not need to sacrifice anything to meet Erik down below.

Charles tells Erik he knows everything about him. To some extent maybe, but not really. Charles gets the gist of people around him. Goes in enough to know who’s a threat, who can be trusted, but he asks Erik’s permission in finding that sweet memory of Erik and his mom. Charles didn’t know about it beforehand.

Erik didn’t even think Charles would feel Shaw’s death, nor the people on the boats. He assumes Charles has the option to not feel it, presumably. Or doesn’t know how bad it could be.

Erik leaves Charles on the beach before Charles learns he can’t feel his legs, he doesn’t see Charles’ breakdown and Charles keeps himself together admirably beforehand. Reigning in what must be extreme amounts of pain.

When Erik sees Charles again, Erik presumes that Charles could and would use his powers on Erik, stop him whenever he wants, because they’re enemies now. When he realizes Charles can’t do that, it is still unfathomable to him. And on the plane it all suddenly makes sense. Charles valued his ability to walk more than his powers, Charles chose to remove his powers. Charles abandoned them all to pretend at being normal.

Not for a second does Erik believe Charles is anything but all put together, all knowing. Presumably naive, Erik knows better how cruel the world is. Has experienced real hardship while Charles, as much as Erik loves him, lived a pampered one. It makes sense to Erik that Charles would pick being human.

Not once does Erik think Charles may have been abused by a step father and a step brother. Suffered an alcoholic mother who possibly drank herself to death long before 1962. Charles simply doesn’t say anything and quite honestly prefers to move on from them, because they don’t matter. Raven and Erik matter tho. His little team of mutants mattered, and every single one he’s met at first year of school and through cerebro matter.

Charles is strong enough to help the mutants in need, guide them, and if he were just willing to see Erik’s point of view, fight the good fight against the humans. Because Charles doesn’t make mistakes, Charles doesn’t have failures, but he fails the rest of them.

Charles, unfortunately, isn’t seen as a fallible person to even Erik. More akin to a god, that Erik needs to protect his mind from, because otherwise, his god will exact judgment and punishment. Take his free will away from him because Erik has disobeyed him. To Erik, while Charles and him are equals, both god figures in their own right, with his helmet he levels out a playing field Charles doesn’t even see.

Of course, this is not unlike everyone else in Charles’ life, though where Erik sees a godly figure, everyone else sees Charles as a parent figure, placing him on a similar high pedestal. Seemingly everyone will tend to ignore Charles’ possible emotional instability or fallibility, the way a child might expect their parent to be all knowing. Charles’ wrongs become grander because surely he knows better. So why did Charles’ let this, whatever this is, happen?

[mythicalyeticat]

Was it casual when you let him ‘shoot’ someone, even though you were in their mind and could feel all their pain, just so he could be safe and get his revenge?

[vvividlyy]

I've been doing a lot of timeline research and whatnot for a Cherik fic I'm working on (I'm certainly overthinking things but thats ok, it's my writing process) and I keep coming across threads on reddit where someone is like, ??? Okay why did Charles hold Shaw still so Erik could kill him though he clearly disagreed with it and actually FELT the pain from it??

And of course, the most obvious answer is the correct one: because Charles couldn't let Shaw go without putting Erik in danger.

It just cracks me up that people will watch xmen and be like, wait Erik's and Charles' actions don't make sense if they hate-- OHHHHH
