This is an awesome fic! And an awesome podfic. I usually don't like it when podfics are read by more than one reader - usually, the readers' quality varies, just like the quality of their recordings - but this time, the girls divided it between themselves very smartly and the result is fantastic!
I really love this fic and I wish it could be a part of the canon. Charles and Erik finding each other after X3... This made me very, very happy. The only character I couldn't like or even relate to was Raven/Mystique. Even after so many years, she didn't become any wiser. Maybe it's because she doesn't age, an eternal angry child?
