So, yes. Came straight home, slept til 3 am, woke up and poked at the story. Succumbed to intense peer pressure to give up the total fade-to-black at the end. Now, it's a fade-to-grey. Still PG-13, though, I think.
The Magneto list does not look movieverse-friendly. Oh, well. Movie!Magneto is definitely not comics!Magneto (as if he weren't a giant moving target, anyway), but it bothers me less than it bothers other people. In fact, I take an odd pleasure in thinking that I've just written my first two Magneto stories, only about ten years after I encountered my first real fanfic ever, the Magneto-centric Kid Dynamo, on rec.arts.comics. (Yeah. Just rec.arts.comics, not racm, or racmx...if that doesn't date me, I don't know what does!)
I know better than to post a story at 6 am. Always post the next day, after you've had time to repent!

Obviously movie-centric and no bias toward any pairing/character.

Feedback was minimal from that list, though, so I was looking around for alternatives.
