"I wish we could be together." Charles sobbed, "in some other time, in some other world, I wish we could be together. I wish you hadn't done all these terrible things." Erik pulled Charles into him, holding him tightly, "I hate you Erik, I hate you so much." 1962. Certainly not a fix-it. Charles' paralysis is not magically cured because that's not how it works. Erik really did assassinate the president. Hank is all Charles has left. And Charles gets addicted to Heroin. Read if you're ready for angst and realism. Citations at the end.

Memories

Charles Xavier has been through too much. After losing his mobility after the events of the mission in Cuba, he's a shell of the man he used to be. Finding release in alcohol, he tries to forget all of what he has lost. He tries to move on with his new, broken family. But one man stands in the way of his happiness- the same man who took it away to begin with and broke his family. The same man who had caused Charles to become paralyzed from the waist down- Erik Lehnsherr. Erik has been racked with guilt ever since he had injured Charles- but he doesn't know how bad it is. Not until he runs into the man when they're both trying to rescue a mutant, and he sees that Charles is confined to a wheel chair.
