For I Mean to Conquer Troy, by twelve_pastels

Emma convinces Erik to take off the helmet at the same time Charles overloads on Cerebro. Features Erik as a professor, letter writing to the comatose, and Alex giving the most hilarious description of religion of all time.

Bonus: Includes the tag “Unrealistic Everything.”

“Look, all I’m saying is that you’re acting less like a ball of psychoses masquerading as a human, and more like the brilliant overprotective manic-obsessive asshole that we all were hoping you’d turn out to be. Which I guess isn’t that comforting, but hey. I’m twenty-two, father to a six year old, and my kid shoots lasers from his eyes. We all work with what we have.”
