The Light Between Oceans AUAfter fighting in the war Erik Lehnsherr accepts the position of a lighthouse keeper at Magneto Rock -- a lonely island near Genosha. He is content with the idea of living in isolation, however, at one point it is expected of him to settle down. The most obvious choice for a wife would be Magda Gurzsky, a young woman in Genosha who already is quite fond of Erik since day one. What make Erik's decision more difficult are his conflicting feelings for his new friend Charles Xavier. In the 1920's Erik does not feel free to follow his own heart, instead surrendering to other people's expectations and letting that control his life. This leads to impossible dilemmas, suffering, and lots of suppressed feelings and desires. ---Do not expect an abundance of historical accuracy here. My priority was the story itself, the characters, and their feelings and emotions. I've changed Australia to Genosha, and Janus Rock to Magneto Rock. Erik represents Thomas Sherbourne's character ((naturally)), Magda represents Tom's wife, and Charles is a whole new delightful addition to the story :D Expect a slow burn, mostly due to the time period not allowing gay relationships, and also because of Erik's own indecisiveness and struggles to suppress his feelings for Charles. I hope you enjoy it!…
