I Love Dadneto (as We All Do) But I Think It's Unrealistic That Magda (Peter's Mum) Would Just Willingly

I love dadneto (as we all do) but I think it's unrealistic that Magda (Peter's mum) would just willingly let Erik be around Peter and let him be a parent after abandoning her for 20 years.

I just need more fics where Magda confronts Erik and stands her ground on the fact that Peter is HER SON and Erik just happens to biologically be his father

I wrote my first fic, and it had to be a dadneto reveal fic. I took a little divergence from the Dark Phoenix movie canon because my main focus is Peter and Erik’s relationship. Might lack proof reading and a whole lot of stuff, but I’m tired and just happy ‘cause Peter’s happy in this little world (albeit hurt) :)

“They have Peter,” Erik’s voice is breaking. “They have our son.”

The teacup Charles was holding shatters on the floor. “What happened?”

Erik’s trembling hands produce the package that had been dropped on the mansion’s doorstep. A tuft of silver hair spills onto Charles’ desk, along with a typed letter and a polaroid.

“They said they want information about Cerebro. They know I helped you build it. And I – I put Peter in danger, taking him in. This is my fault.” Erik all but collapses into Charles. “He doesn’t know anything about Cerebro, but they don’t know that. They’re hurting him, Charles.”

Charles Xavier is not a vengeful person. But one look at the Polaroid on his desk fills him with an unusual rage. Peter’s kidnappers had cut his hair – and scalp in some places – and there were bruises flowering across his face. There’s no telling what damage has been done to the rest of his body.

“Erik,” Charles whispers, rubbing his husband’s shaking shoulders. “We’re going to get him back. No matter what it takes. We’re going to bring our son home.” *** Whumptober prompts fulfilled: search party, wound cleaning, stitches, team as family

What if Peter was in the middle of saying Erik that he's his son, and he just went *poof*

Like, after a half an hour of talking with no absolute sense he went like "so, listen. I'm your--"

Fml

talk dirty to me (tell me about your current dadneto wip 🔪 )

Well since you asked so nicely ;)

The WIP I’m supposed to be working on is the second chapter of One Son’s Worth (over 5k already!!) but I got distracted a few days ago by working on a completely self-indulgent drabble set in my dark DOFP timeline! Everybody thank @it-meant-nothing for reigniting my love of this AU haha!

The fic is centred around Erik being extremely touch starved after his 24 year imprisonment while Pietro is completely touch averse from his own life on the run from sentinels and how they navigate that. It’s set very early on in their relationship and follows how that bond develops through trust and understanding, and I just love it SO MUCH it’s not even funny.

There’s something about the tension of Pietro and Erik caring about each other so deeply but being separated by this massive rift in their experiences that makes me feral. Of course Erik fully respects Pietro’s boundaries and refrains from physical affection even though it KILLS him inside, and while Pietro may hate being touched, he grows to love his dad enough to make an exception for Erik.

Here’s a segment from the fic, if you’d like a preview!

Erik started to forget that touch could mean something other than suffering.

And then Pietro came along, shattering not only his cell but his very reality in the process. A hand on his arm. Another curled up in his hair. A touch that didn’t carry pain, but hope, and freedom, and something that felt dangerously close to safety. Erik’s skin tingled long after Pietro had pulled his hands away, and it wasn’t long after that Erik realised how deeply he had missed such gentle contact.

He learnt very quickly, however, that Pietro did not feel the same.

Thanks for allowing me to ramble dearest!!
