    Summary

    "Alright," Erik puts his hands on his hips. "Jesus. Who came up with this, seriously? Why are the teaspoons all the way in the back - you drink so much tea, it doesn't make sense to have them... and the- ist das ein Feuerzeug? Why is it over there with the knives?"

    "Can't help you there," Charles comments serenely. "Probably my mother, who prioritised accessibility of the corkscrew over most other things in life."

    or: Charles doesn't take well to returning to his childhood home. Erik makes soup and rearranges the cutlery drawer.

    Summary

    Charles blinks at him bemusedly, but Erik barely notices because Charles is wearing glasses— wire-rimmed, and Erik can feel the metal humming, traces without touch the way they follow the curve of Charles’s nose and rest behind his ears.
