I currently have 226 works archived at AO3. Pick a number from 1 (the most recent) to 226 (the first thing I posted there), and I'll tell you three things I currently like about it.
1) I love me some Raven-and-Charles-as-kids backstory
2) I really adore the image of Erik as gatekeeper at the door, denying access/protecting Charles from anyone who might disturb him
3) I like that the story is relatively subtle while still managing to get across what I wanted, which is the combination of Raven and Charles really loving each other but having grown farther apart, farther than probably either of them realizes - the contrast between them as children, when they were each other's everything, to them now, when they don't know what the other is thinking or doing
