Posting an actual fic (don't have a heart attack, okay?)

Was gonna wait til I was done but I had a really awful day so I decided to hell with it, I'll start posting it to the meme now and hopefully get some nice feedback :D



Title: Everyday Love in Stockholm

Fandom: X-Men First Class

Pairing: Erik/Charles

Prompt: Magneto is the ruler of the posthuman world. His only secret? Charles Xavier, the human he's kept locked in his bedroom ever since his right-hand woman, Mystique, came to him pleading for mercy for her stepbrother, who accepted her mutant form and protected her as a child. The human he started fucking after Mystique was killed in battle, despite the guilt he feels at contaminating even this last promise to the woman who was integral to his life's work and happiness.

Hooray! I'm glad you like it :) It's a made up title referencing Stockholm Syndrome, so not a song. I was thinking about including a subtitle "(Lima on my mind)" to reference Lima Syndrome too but it was better without.

Um, no, it's not a song reference at all, it's a reference to the mental disorder Stockholm syndrome (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_syndrome) which develops in hostage situations and makes captives feel affection towards their captors. The partner to this is Lime syndrome where the captor feels affection for his prisoners.
