PIRATE AUS
A Tale of Two Captains by ClarkeStetler, Goosenik
Charles Xavier had wanted to be on the ocean as far back as he could remember. He could remember toddling toward the shipyards as an infant, being snatched away by scolding parents just before he could touch the gleaming vessels. As he grew older, his attention never wavered from the prospect of living life on the seas.
At twenty-one years of age, Charles and his ship had its first run-in with pirates, and he saw fit to protect his title and vessel as fiercely as he knew how.
Sonnet for a Poet and His Pirate by luninosity, velvetcadence
Erik had, of course, known his name before they’d ever met. Charles Francis Xavier, Viscount of Westchester. Famous, or infamous, for those scandalous little books of poetry, plain-bound and sold under discreet covers and scorchingly breathtakingly obscene.
We threw our hearts into the sea by hllfire
For a moment, there was only the cold water and the feeling of nothingness as he sank. When something touched his skin, however, his eyes opened again, tired, barely seeing anything, and he was sure he was hallucinating.
Voyage desperately to steal it back by flightinflame
Erik hates pirates. Yet he knows that getting aboard the Krakoan not only means he will have a chance to kill Captain Xavier, but hopefully will provide a much needed lead on tracking down Sebastian Shaw, and reclaiming what is his.
To Rattle the Stars by GQD, Pangea
All his life Charles has chafed at the bonds of gravity that hold him bound to tiny and backwater Montressor, more at home in the sky on his solar surfer than on the ground, where he's stuck working at his stepfather's inn. His heart and soul yearn for the stars, and it's his dream to one day be a spacer and sail across the cosmos on adventure.
The opportunity comes sooner than he ever imagined one night when a ship crash-lands on the inn's front doorstep, carrying a dying pirate with a mysterious map and a dire warning: beware the cyborg.

From Rim Space With Love by manic_intent
"Captain Logan! Captain Logan!"
The skinny cadet skitters to a halt next to Logan in the rec room, red-faced and a little out of breath. Logan eyes him with a faint frown, sunk deep into a stimm couch, thumbing up the rim of his captain's hat. He's just come off a torturous fifteen-hour shift, and healing factor or not, Logan's starting to feel it. Warp space is hell on his nerves.
"Settle down, bub. What burned your tail... eh..." Logan concentrates briefly. "Cadet McCoy? Hey. Your blue's showing. Settle down."
McCoy takes in several deep breaths, and the blue fur starting to thread out of his skin sinks back in. "Sir, yes sir. Message from X-Command, sir."
A Road to Safety or Ruin by keire_ke
Erik should feel only anger when he thinks of the sky-pirates, of their exploits and disregard for laws. By rights he should be glad when one is caught committing a crime on Genoshan land, as it should give him some satisfaction to sentence the man to death. Shouldn't he?
Overboard by rhymeswithmonth
In a split second decision, Charles threw his hat aside and unbuckled his rapier from his belt, letting it drop to the deck with a clatter. Then he flung himself over the rail, to Armando's alarmed cry, and hit the water hard.
Take What You Can by rhymeswithmonth
It's the 18th Century and Charles Francis Xavier, eldest son of the seventh governor of the colony Westchester, kin of old-world kings, captain of the vessel Mystique, has been found guilty for the crimes of theft, kidnapping, and piracy, and has been sentenced to hang by the neck until dead. His loyal crew have other plans.
