Not quite the kiss waking up Sleeping Beauty, but close enough.
Teehee.

This is both sad and strangely vindicating. Because yay, canon confirmation that neither of them is 100% right in their approach, but on other hand, so many years of conflict and losses could have been avoided if they'd both gotten their heads out of their asses and found some middle groud between kumbayah and kneel before Zod Magneto.
I found it very touching and bittersweet. It's also a much more elegant and understated way to make the point that fuckyougrantmorisson was trying to hammer in Planet X.

Some time later, the X-Men and pretty much all surviving mutants have established a base/ mutant “Utopia” on Magneto's old crashed satellite, just off the coast of San Fransisco. It was only a matter of time before the previous tenant dropped by.
I love the fact that Magneto is basically... oh, so you're taking a page out of my book? Heh. Well, I guess I'm going to join you then. And I'm not going to point out that you're basically doing what I've been kind of doing all this time anyway - I'm just going to smirk to myself and make a handful of snarky comments.

Given how genial their previous interaction was, the only explanation I can think of for Charles' pissiness is that Erik is there to speak to Scott, not him.
As I've said before, the only way it makes sense for me is if they have a telepathic communication in between "hey, I'm here in peace. A hand with Scott?" "SOf course. Just watch the reverse psychology." "You're a terrible actor, Charles. And what's with the glowy eyes- ouch!" "See? Worked like a charm." "..." :p

I don't know what it is about Erik's unique brand of bonding with teenagers by both inspiring and terrorizing them that I find adorable, but I just do.
You're not alone. I'm all azsbxaqgcyefcuygcuyzfgc about this story.

Being introduced to the hope of mutantkind as “a dear friend” by former X-Men nemesis is not helping Charles feel any less out of the loop.
Which, in retrospect, makes Scott quite the ass. Poor Xavier :(

Anyway thank you so much for making this epic picspam of doom, it was a thing of beauty ♥
