@foryou-insilence​ yeah, January 17, 2018

same here, i just can't waaaaaait until may ugghhhhh it's still so far away and the christmas special is like a tease

Well, that's up my alley too lol. Would you be kind for pointing out which four of them are that I could go and jump right in those WIPs? *batting eyelashes*

OH-HO-HO, WILL I EVER, TIMELOSSER!! These are all SO FUCKING GOOD and I love them all so much. *whimpers*

They ARE all WIPs, though, so be forewarned:

alea iacta est. Underage alpha!Erik imprints on 29 year old omega!Charles. 

Caution: Do Not Run in the Hallways. High school teacher alpha!Erik imprints on freshman omega!Charles on his first day of class.

A Hundred Different Directions. Same as the above fill, but with a slower build-up to the imprinting.

Growing Pains. On Charles's first day of high school, a run-in with physics teacher Mr. Lensherr reveals something that shakes up both their lives. But before Charles can commit to being Mr. Lensherr's lover, he has to get through four years of high school.

A Case Study in Age Disparate Alpha/Omega Dynamics in a Non-Clinical Setting. From the same prompt, only omega!Charles is in college at age 14 with Tony Stark, and alpha!Erik is his college professor.

I could happily read a million of these types of stories. There were also a couple that have been deleted, including one where underage alpha!Charles imprints on his omega!Erik high school teacher. :( I also stumbled across this one, which I haven’t read yet:

I suppose there is a difference between what you write to fulfill your own sexual fantasies and to fulfill your sexual fantasies of your OTP.

that’s a good point! like, they are all in first person so that might be a thing? but on the other hand they are intended to be read/heard since people have sent them in? so it’s not really a ‘write for yourself’-situation, really, and i’m just??? this won? 

haha omg thank you. in the interest of not writing a mile-long post, i’ll try to keep my answers brief.

1. What inspired you to write the fic this way?

all ike and i knew was that we wanted to write a fic with the forced captivity trope involved, paired with the fuck or die trope. and then because i Literally Cannot Resist, we put it in space.

2. What scene did you first put down?

we wrote it in the exact order you read it, so Charles waking up to a message from Moira with new orders to pilot a massive prison transport into deep space.

4. What's your favorite line of dialogue? 

aahh, so many. too many. but

He still retains contact with Erik’s mind and through it he hears Logan say to Erik, “You’re gonna break that kid’s goddamn heart.”

“No,” he hears Erik respond, his mind forming the words just barely before his mouth speaks them aloud with quiet conviction, “I’m going to do right by him. One day.”

ranks pretty high up.

5. What part was hardest to write? 

surprisingly or not, it was actually the part where they’re running through the storage hold during their great escape, and having to take over the pirate cruiser after not making it to the escape pod. those action-y bits ended up being a lot more harder to push myself (i’m the one who wrote that part) through than all the rest.

6. What makes this fic special or different from all your other fics? 

jesus, it’s long. we originally thought we were writing a 40k fic.

8. Did any real people or events inspire any part of it?

no, haha, fortunately not. that would probably be horrifying, given what goes on. but we were inspired by a few bane/blake (crackship from the dark knight rises fandom that we are both very much into, don’t judge us!!) fics, but those don’t exactly count as “real” people or events either, haha.

9. Were there any alternate versions of this fic?

we miiiiiiight have an alternate version (perpetual wip, now) set in a post-apocalypse-caused-by-the-sentinels setting instead of in space, and also minus the whole prison aspect. so maybe that doesn’t count, but ike definitely started writing it back when we were trying to figure out what kind of fic we wanted to write in order to fill our need for the forced captivity trope. we were really, really thirsty for it, okay..

11. What do you like best about this fic?

i like how it came out, tbh, which is incredible. i also really like the title we finally settled on, which took us an embarrassingly long time but definitely worth the search.

12. What do you like least about this fic?
