I literally ship everyone but Charles/Erik, if it makes you feel any better--het, femslash, slash. I'm working up the nerve to go start filling the ignored prompts on [livejournal.com profile] xmen_firstkink, but I...haven't yet. Sorry!

Weird. It's kinda like you're being contrary coming at it like that. I don't ship Erik/Charles, but then I don't ship anyone in XMFC.

Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean for that to come out sounding contrary; just figured I'd point out that it was...odd to me (I'm not normally a mass shipper).

"I literally ship everyone but Charles/Erik"

I've seen people say this before and I find it so amazing, because virtually all other relationships in the movie with the exception of perhaps Charles/Raven are completely 1D and underdeveloped. We barely know who all the other folks really ARE, it's pretty much a make your own canon from scratch deal with everyone other than C/E/R.

Charles and Erik are the characters who are in the foreground and they're the ones with some of the most character development. I don't think it should be a surprise to anyone that they're commonly paired together.

This is true. :) But then, it's not exactly that I don't ship them so much as I don't actively ship them. Since the entire movie focused on them, their relationship, their pasts, and their motives, I was pretty well sick of them by the end. I find the universe and the underdeveloped characters much more interesting in terms of fanfiction and fandom. The Charles/Erik squee is just not for me. :)

I know this is an old post, but I just wanted to say that I totally get what you're saying. I very rarely seek out fic for the canon couples, unless I'm REALLY into them, because there's enough of them in canon. And usually I'll go for the most obvious pairing first, read all the fics and then get sick of it, and start to ship the rarepairs. Also I am really interested in XMFC femslash, so.

Hee, I like that. I ship the HELL out of Charles/Erik (but I have for years, tbh, this movie just worked with what I already had goin') but I appreciate your rallying for the smaller ships. Fight on, brave soldier!
