gala_apples: (help me)
I don't know how it is for any of you, darlin' flist, but for me, I always have my primary fandom (bandom currently, obviously) which I read and write and love. And I'll usually have a secondary fandom going at the same time, one I'm only reading in, not writing. Often I'll go back and re-enjoy the canon. Generally speaking these fandoms are more OTPish to me. Not that I'm ever reeeeally OTPish. But I think that's why they stay secondary, because I'd be bored writing the same pairing again and again. The last few were Suits (Harvey/Mike, you are 52 minutes of D/s on my tv screen) then Stargate Atlantis (Ronon/Rodney/John/Teyla). And now it is XMen First Class. In two days I've watched the movie three times.

I HAVE ALL THE FEELINGS. SO MANY FEELINGS, YOU GUYS. I'm like, composing arguments in my head towards my RL friend who thinks what Erik did was wrong. And telling my dad the plot of the movie talking over the first ten minutes of his news. And I spent 7 hours going through every fill of a kink meme to find that one fic I remembered and wanted to reread. Which, by the way, is here and is awesome.

And, like, I just read this comment thread: A) Do Azazel and Riptide even make eye contact? EVER? B) YES YES YES THEY DO. You know on the final scene on the beach, where Erik is like ~join me~? Wellll, during that scene, they're standing super close and they look at each other not just once, but TWICE, OKAY, LIKE "I'LL GO IF YOU GO." A) I love their silent communications. :D They are like the truest bros.
Their complete disinterest in each other has convinced me they are the Remus/Sirius of XMFC. Which no, because duhhh, Charles and Erik have a crazy love of the ages.

And then I just read this summary The school is raided by the government who manage to incapacitate all the mutants - children and adults inside (maybe with some kind of ability-suppressing gas?) - and capture them all, then start executing them one by one, forcing Charles to watch. As shot after shot after shot ring out in the courtyard he devolves into complete hysteria from horror and grief and manages to overcome the effects of the gas, sending a single, desperate message to his lover "Help me, Erik!" - and Erik hears it. and I got a mental image of myself running in a circle with my arms in the air literally flailing, screaming. I don't know if that means I should read the fic, or shouldn't.

HALP. THIS FANDOM, YOU GUYS. IT'S SO AMAZING.
