Fics like Crystalline Minds

Maybe it’s just in combination with the name but suddenly the distant recognition turned horribly familiar. The kid- Scotty- took the sliver of distraction to try and slither out of O’Diamonds’ grasp, eyes still pressed closed. The face was unmistakable. It's Scott. It's his brother. “Scott?” Alex asked, all the air suddenly pushed from his lungs in a single breath. Alex hasn’t seen his little brother in years. When Alex had gotten locked up, Scott was just a little kid, clinging to his mom’s leg. Then there was Xavier and the draft and by the time Alex was overseas, knee deep in a tent that smelt like sweat and blood, he got a formal looking letter informing him that his father and stepmother had died in a crash on his dad’s medieval little relic of a plane. There was no forwarding address, no phone number listed for Alex to call and try to take some sort of guardianship over his little brother. They knew what he was and Alex figured the government would never have let a known mutant take custody of a normal kid, even if Alex had been human, he would have been a shitty guardian anyways. Scott deserved better than him. Alex didn’t know where he thought Scott was-it wasn’t here.
