Summary
Steve Rogers is a painter who lives in Brooklyn, and he can’t sleep. He keeps himself busy with work, volunteering, and helping his elderly neighbour Marjorie walk her dog. The city is warm at this time of year, good for long walks at night, and yet Steve still can’t sleep.
When he can’t sleep, he’s often painting. People, buildings, skylines.
But sometimes Steve paints things he doesn’t understand, or recognise. Shapes, movement, colours...and there’s a man. A man keeps appearing in his paintings. And something’s strange about his arm.

Summary
If only Charles could have helped Raven instead of trying to control her, and if only he had helped Erik sooner. Maybe they wouldn't have gotten themselves in such a mess. Logan on a table, Kitty in obvious distress, Bobby trying to soothe her to no avail, and Erik... Charles can feel them all. The Sentinels closing in. The sharp pike striking through Ororo's torso. Bishop screaming. Blink casting a portal behind Erik, allowing him to stumble back into the dark little room with metal shards protruding out of his chest. How did everything become such a mess? He knew the answer; that day on the beach.
*or*
Instead of 1973, Logan is sent back to 1962 and is approached by Erik and Charles. Rather than telling them to go fuck themselves, he joins them and tries to keep the original X-Men from splintering.
