Ways Erik looks at Charles.

#The way Erik adjusts his fingers in the 3rd gif, from both being on Charles’ coat sleeve to one moving just enough to touch Charles’ skin.

#The last gif, where Charles just quickly pats Erik, has always struck me as awkward because even though we don’t really see them being touchy-feely with each other, the intensity of their chemistry is so strong at this point that such a gesture feels strange. Every time I see this scene arcanewinter’s line in her fic A Measure of Peace comes to mind: “…clapping Erik on the shoulder in some awkward assurance that he did in fact know the sort of contact they were supposed to be having”. That is what this feels like. Moira just interrupted something incredibly intimate (Erik having performance issues and Charles “going inside” him and reminding him he’s good, enabling Erik to “get it up”, both of them crying along the way), kind of reminding the boys of their situation and causing them (or Charles anyway) to revert back to what is “acceptable” by society. Don’t forget folks, Charles is afraid of being visibly different. That’s why he’s afraid of Raven slipping up and showing who she really is. He knows society isn’t ready for whatever he and Erik are(even in the most non-romantic canon these are two men eternally bound to each other). So instead he gives Erik this awkward good-job-dude pat and doesn’t wait up for him. And Erik just stands there still kinda winded by it all.

Or maybe I’m just reading into too much here. I need some sequel news before I start going through this movie framebyframe for more headcanons.

And I would not mind at all if you framebyframed the movie.

Ditto. 

You could do a whole blog of this.
