meteordustI would just like to say what a delight it is to be part of a giant exploding fandom, where there is an unstoppable avalanche of fic and other happy things to greet each new day.
I'm going to need an icon, aren't I?

Eric's Song by![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

Because it's Vienna Teng. And it's Eric's Song. And it's gorgeous and haunting and poignant, exploring the connection between Erik and Charles, and how well they fit together - and yet. Lots of lovely moments, from "like a phoenix you rise from the ashes" to "ambitions like ribbons worn bright on my sleeve".

Humane Society by smilebackwards
Written for the prompt: "Basically, mutant supremacist Erik gets transfigured into a kitten, human Charles takes him in, and Erik really can't help falling in love." It sounds like it should be pure crack. And much of it is hilarious and adorable. But it is also heartbreaking, because Charles is so *lonely*, as Erik comes to realise, and he loves his kitten *so much*, and there was one scene that literally made me cry. So yeah, this story melted me into a puddle of goo. In a really good way.

Charles tries to cook breakfast for everyone. Erik steps in to save the day with his awesome omelette skills. Very cute. You know, all my life I thought I wanted stories about heroes and dragons and spaceships, but it wasn't till fandom started turning out curtain!fic that I realised how much I needed it.

X-Men, Memento style. Oh, Charles. Rip out my heart, why don't you?

X-Men, Groundhog Day style. Because every fandom needs one. Erik keeps reliving the day of the beach.
