Podfic Bingo

Title: Coming Down With Me
Author: spuffyduds
Reader: helens78
Fandom: X-Men: First Class
Characters: Erik Lehnsherr, Charles Xavier
Rating: teen
Word count: 307

Summary: A grim little AU on the beach.

Warnings: Major character death.

Reader's Notes: I love this story (dark and character death and all). If you'd like a podfic that also has a very dark take on the beach scene, in a completely different way, I highly recommend Rhea314's "A Thousand Explosions, But Only One" (written by, er, me), which is fantastic.

This is also my "read with silence" square for podfic_bingo!

Author's Summary: When our heroes become housebound due to a planet-wide storm, questions help them pass the time and reveal some surprising answers.

Reader Notes: This is the story that got me into western media slash fandom in 2002. :D I think it still holds up pretty well (it's a romantic, fluffy first-time fic), and I had fun recording it. :)

podfic_bingo notes: For my Wild Card square (I'm using "slash" here; not only is it slash, it's also the story that convinced me that I could actually enjoy slash. Ten years later...) Also for the "beginnings" challenge, since this marked my beginning in the world of fanfic. :D
