(thinking nonstop about cherik occasionally making the absolute worst decisions post-dofp. charles who doesn't believe erik can change, but can't stop wanting him to, can't stop hoping somehow he will; erik who can't tell charles no, who knows they're hurting each other but this is the only form of comfort there is for him in a life that consists primarily of loss & pain. an absolute slow-moving disaster that neither of them can stop, codependency at its messiest & finest 😮💨)
