[livejournal.com profile] inception_bang is having a round 2!! I'm really excited since I missed round 1 and I have a TON of ideas for longfic. Ideas that someone will want to do with me, however... I've narrowed it down to three choices, two of which I've already talked about in here, one that would be *shock!* gen. HEISTFIC. Inception needs more Bone gen hesitfic, right!? Plenty of time before sign-ups start so I'll make up my mind before then, I'm sure. I'M SURE.

And then there's [livejournal.com profile] xmenbigbang, which I just impulse-signed-up for, despite having said that I wasn't going to write any more X-men. I feel a little awkward about it because it's not for sheer love of the source material that I'm doing it. IN FACT IT IS THE OPPOSITE AND I CAN'T HOLD IT IN ANYMORE, IT'S TIME FOR A CROIK!RANT!!!!

If you are super in love with First Class and will be offended by me not liking it, better not to proceed )

Of course, it was after coming to terms with all that when I was struck by inspiration at work, and so now I'm planning to write a crossover, which is another thing I'm normally not keen on. Fuck my brain. It's the sort of thing people will look at and go, "Wait, what?" and then their friend who's already sped through the fic will go, "Don't worry, Charles doesn't get eaten," which in turn may cause anyone reading this to go, "Wait, what?" We just time traveled. Did you see it?

In other news I'm writing for [livejournal.com profile] ae_angst and fighting the urge to post in 500 word increments, because that would be cheap of me, but that's how the game goes, isn't it??

And I'll leave you with this graphic I did for tumblr )

This is not me jumping ship from Inception. This is something that popped into my head during a long 90 degree day at work and I had to get it out because, to be honest, I didn't especially care for this movie. Fucking brain, how do you work? I'm gonna have E/R to post this weekend srsly.

Title: So Really, Only One Thing Changed
Fandom: X-Men: First Class
Length: ~3,600 words
Rating/Pairings: PG-13 for tiiiiny bit of sexuality. Vague Charles/Moira. Charles/Erik if you Cobbsquint.
Warnings: Ableism
Summary: Post-movie, Charles struggles in the aftermath. Spoilers!
Notes: Probably the only X-Men fic you'll ever see from me. I've done my best to represent Charles' issues sensitively... My sincere apologies if I haven't. It's not beta'd and in a style I rarely do so all crit is welcome and I'll probably clean it up some before posting it to A03.

Let's just say I'm preparing for Team Angst )
