Summary
Fourteen cities half as many days, and the shooting pain behind Charles’s eye is constant now. After a few initial successes in recruiting more mutants for their team, he and Erik are now getting the proverbial door slammed in their faces, over and over.
Charles does not enjoy travel. Too many new minds every day, too many emotions pressing in around him, smothering his own thoughts, and he feels like the little Dutch boy with his finger in the dyke. If he abandons his post, the flood of psychic energy would come bursting through his skull, and he would drown. Or go mad.
Or both.
***
The montage of Charles & Erik recruiting mutants bringing 'couple searching for a third in their marriage' energy and honestly their whole dynamic in that movie lives eternally rent free in my head. In my mind this happens directly after Hugh jackman's amazing Cameo in first class.

Summary
“Shh. . .” Anakin says, gathering the younglings around him, reminding Obi-wan of all those whispered arguments where he had insisted to Anakin that yes, he was good with children, he’d be just fine teaching Ahsoka. He can almost feel the terror rising off Anakin from the hologram; Anakin doesn’t know what’s happening either. But he isn’t letting the younglings feel it. “You need to listen to me very carefully, okay? This--” his voice breaks, “--this is going to be scary. But you have to be calm, and strong. Just like Master Yoda taught you.”
* * * * *Or, the ROTS au where Obi-wan finds a very different type of pain while looking through the Temple's recordings of Order 66.
