Writing is writing, right? So if I'm not working on the projects I should be doing right now, at least I'm writing? This is my rationalization at any rate.

I'm sure you all know by now that X-Men First Class is irresistible. Erik is irresistible. So is Charles.

I love the meta that's pouring out in this fandom already (see [personal profile] seperis' post if you haven't already, though be aware it is one spoiler from beginning to end). There's another great post from an SGA friend who's also in the comic fandom and knows the original canon, but damn it, I can't find it. ETA: Oh, here it is, not quite meta, more review-plus-meta.

Fandom: X-Men First Class
Title: Playing The Hopeful Move
Author: Me, of course
Rating: PG-13
Warnings: None
Thank yous: to [personal profile] mad_maudlin and to [personal profile] tzzzz for, respectively, making me post it, and telling me to make it a story. All mistakes are my own. By way of explanation, in chess, the hopeful move is the one that makes you vulnerable but can completely disarm your opponent.

Summary: Charles and Erik go on a road trip to find mutants and end up playing chess at 20,000 feet. "I'm not omnipotent enough to lie."
