It's time for McAvoy's face.

Today is a day that was irritating, and the worst kind of irritating, because it was my own fault. I'm edging towards one of those "I suck as a person and oh god why do people even like me" moods, so I'm going to spam you all with McAvoy's face. With bonus Anne-Marie.
Maybe I'll just write mindless fluff or something (hah, when do I write anything other than that?), though with my present state of mind it would be like, Charles adopting ten hedgehogs named Martin Freeman. Well, not that, but you know. Something.

Date: 2012-01-31 08:52 pm (UTC)I have no idea, in my head right now it's all like, CAPSLOCK and I think things like: CHARLES WANTS TO BUY A COTTON CANDY MACHINE. EGGBERT IS TORN BETWEEN THIS CANDY FLOSS GODDESS AND HIS MINI MUFFIN PAN LOVER.
And then there was glitter everywhere.

And he and Sean would be on constant sugar highs, and Eggbert has so many feelings about this new metal denizen of the kitchen, but then one day Charles gets a cotton candy finger print on his brushed aluminum exterior, and that is NOT ON, and he beeps angrily at Charles, and Charles is SO taken aback, because that's never happened to him! And Erik is like, "I told you your stupid machine was evil." And Charles pets Eggbert, and Eggbert burbles happily at him and totally forgives him, and Charles smiles at Erik in a I-told-you-so-it-totally-loves-me way, and Erik rolls his eyes and says, "I wipe my hands of your outrageous kitchen appliances."
ERIK HATES YOUR GLITTER TYRANNY! (but he loves you.)

Date: 2012-01-31 11:26 pm (UTC)oh god, that would be really terrifying. they would also want to like, experiment with colors, wouldn't they? (well, Sean would, and Charles might go along with it out of curiosity, until Sean started putting way too much thought into how they should make glow-in-the-dark cotton candy/cotton candy that will be REALLY AWESOME under a black light). and awwww, Eggbert's feelings! and his first almost fight with Charles! but I am glad that Eggbert is so forgiving, because Charles would be sad if they had a falling out.
ERIK SHOULD JUST BE GLAD THAT CHARLES ISN'T IN THE MIDDLE OF A GLAM ROCK PHASE. (my mind is a weird place today. and he better! otherwise he'll never be tied up by Charles! [well, unless you write it, too, which is totally encouraged.])

You can't tell me you wouldn't feed our children!" And Erik is like, "...our children," and Charles stammers something in reply and bites his lip on that completely irresistible way he has, and Erik has to kiss him, and after, Charles laughs and says, "that's no way to discourage me from being presumptuous," and Erik says, "whatever makes you this I want to discourage that," and then Charles has to drag him off into the bedroom, while Sean is saying to Alex in the living room, "if that was a proposal, it was the worst one I ever heard," and Erik gives him the finger over Charles' shoulder.)
Also, in my head, the cotton candy has almost overwhelmed the kitchen twice and Erik keeps telling Charles that he's tired of cleaning up after him and also tired of how he always has cotton candy all over him. And Charles is like, "honestly, Erik, it's for the tirones. And you can't expect me to believe that you don't like it when you spent all of last night licking it off me," and Erik is like, "still..."
Eggbert is the most forgiving. He loves Charles. The mini muffin pan sometimes thinks sadly about how Eggbert will never love him as much as he loves Charles.
I think Charles needs to go to a glam rock party and blow Erik's mind/completely horrify him, because Erik's brain is torn between, SO HOT MUST HIT THAT and oh my god glitter keep it far away from me. (So true! He apologizes! He is abjectly grateful to you for everything you do for him!!!)

Date: 2012-02-01 01:16 am (UTC)"I--you're wearing a peacoat," Erik says stupidly.
Charles looks up from fiddling with the strap of his bag, slung across his chest. "Hmm? Oh, yes."
"And a tie."
Charles makes a face, and his hands migrate up to the tie, adjusting the sloppily-tied knot, which is off-kilter and decidedly odd looking. Charles has many amazing talents, but an ability to tie ties is not one of them. "Well, yes. It's one of Raven's performances, I figured I ought to--." The tie falls apart in his hands. He huffs a breath through his nose. "How on earth do people manage to get their ties to work properly?"
"Not like that," Erik says drily. He bats Charles' hands away, unspools the tie from around Charles' neck, ignores the sharp, indrawn breath that the smooth slide elicits from Charles. "Collar up," he says, and Charles complies while Erik runs his hands down the length of silk. He can't help but imagine the black fabric against Charles' wrists, across Charles' eyes, covering the pale skin of his face. He wonders if Charles will let him do that.
He carefully arranges the tie under Charles' popped collar and lets his hands follow the muscle memory of tying it, backwards, of course, and a little awkward because of it; after all, he's never had cause to tie someone else's tie before.
"There," he says, rearranging Charles' collar, adjusting the tie so that it hangs perfectly. His fingers brush against the flushed skin of Charles' neck as he does it. "Finished." His voice is a little hoarse.
"Erik," Charles says. He's staring at him, Erik sees when his gaze lifts from Charles' neck, the dot of red from where he nicked himself shaving, the hairs he always forgets about tucked away under his jaw. Charles is drifting into his space, and Erik aches to pull him closer, take his mouth, but--
"Raven's performance."
"After," Charles says insistently.
"Yes," Erik agrees. "I have plans for that tie."
Charles catches his eye. "Good."
