Aaaand now for something totally different

Seeing as my ventures into X-men ficcing have been uniformly dark, twisted and depressing (with the exception of Strip Chess, which is just porny). I decided to crown my new return into the depths of fanfiction with something that is actually upbeat. This is pretty much Past Tense's polar opposite. I was thinking, sicne I had Charles share Erik childhood, such as it was, what would happen if the reverse happened. And by that point I'd put in all that work in thinking up what Erik's family would have been like and feeling sort of let down because none of them would actually appear in the fic on account of being dead. So I though let's un-dead them and say they GTFOed out of Europe to America in like early '39 and AHHHGG THE BUNNIES, THEY'RE EVERYWHERE!

So I finally started writing the dreadfully upbeat thing. In which everything bad happens offscreen and many miles away and Erik has a disgustingly happy childhood. Ick, I need a bath from all the hideous gooey happy. I'll post it up here when it's done. Because unlike many of my fics, this one actually has a set ending, whoda thunk it.
