Finally, it was done!
Erik clapped his hands together in satisfaction. A new Cerebro! With this Charles should be able to find any and all mutants in this universe at the least.
As he wiped some imaginary sweat of his brow the master of magnetism decided that it was time to celebrate. He'd been working on this little project almost non-stop and now that all it still needed was perhaps a little finetuning, he deserved a break.
That thought firmly in mind Magneto made his way to the drink cabinet, humming to himself and quite frightening some students in the process.
He grabbed a bottle of Charles' favorite and two glasses before making his way to the other man's office, now singing softly. Quite a lot of students jotted this down as yet another sign of the Apocalypse.
Since he lacked a free hand, Erik settled for kicking the door softly.
"Charles?"

Charles looked up from his desk with a tired smile, he had been researching Luxord and his friends for days now and needed a break,
Truth be told, his head hurt.
"Erik."

Using his powers to open and close the door, Erik stepped into the office. Meanwhile, his other super-sense kicked in... the somewhat more common kind you often find in old married couples.
While not quite as impressive as moving a bridge by thinking of it, being able to pick up on how your partner was feeling was quite a good ability in itself.
"Looks like I'm not the only one in need of a break." The master of magnetism smiled and set the glasses down on Charles' desk, pouring them both a more than generous amount.

"It's just these bloody nobodies" he shook his head "so complicated yet so simple." He took the class and clinked it against Erik's "Cheers."

"To your good health." Erik took a sip of his drink.
"I do bring good news, should you be interested..." he said casually as he put his glass back down and moved behind Charles so he could massage the other man's shoulders.

"I finally finished it."
There was far more than a touch of triumph in Erik's voice. After all, creating such a machine was an extremely complicated task, even for him.

Charles mood immediately brightened "You have?!"

"I have." Erik chuckled softly.
The construction of the machine had been complicated, more so than that both the original Cerebro and the later 'big sister' Cerebra. Not to mention all the prototypes Erik had been working on before the furry nephew of the blue men group came and stole the glory.
There hadn't exactly been a way to prevent that from happening. For some odd reason the human government didn't feel much for handing out patents on giant mutant locating devices when you were registered (Erik still mentally shuddered at that word) as a mutant terrorist leader. The same went for a lot of things, really.
But he was drifting away from the point.
"It should now be able to find close to anyone and anything, through seperate programs. I'm afraid just looking for 'gifted beyond normal humans' doesn't quite cut it anymore over here. You shall probably need the manual, which you will find inside my head."

Charles chuckled "Let's just hope nothing happens to you, or I shall be thoroughly, what's the word. oh yes screwed."

"Charles, language," Erik chided in mock-disapproval.

Charles shook his head "It's these kids" he waved his hand "they're beginning to get to me, well them Logan and Rogue."

Erik couldn't help but scoff.
"At least they like you. Everyone except Jean and the new kids still seems to think I'm permanently moments away from raining down death and destruction." He shook his head slightly, sliding his hands down from Charles' shoulders to his chest as he did so.

Charles sighed "They'll trust you eventually, just give it time. Well Rogue might, Logan will probably hate you until your dead."

"He will now, I attached him to the fridge." Erik grinned smugly before realizing he'd just told this to the one person who was able to make him feel like a naughty little boy for doing such a thing.
