Erik, Please Unwrap The Journalist

Summary: Someone criticises Erik's clothing. Erik is NOT pouting.
A/N: Another drabble for the #IFDrabble challenge on AO3. X-Men this time.
"Did you have to wrap that poor journalist in a lamppost?"
Erik was not pouting. Magneto didn't pout.
"My getup is perfectly fashionable."
Charles sighed. "Erik, that colour is atrocious."
"It's not my fault that I'm colour-blind!"
Charles consolingly patted Erik's arm. "They're just ignorant humans. They'll learn."
"They criticise my attire but they're fine with you showing up in a denim suit."
Beat.
"Actually, why exactly...?"
"I lost a bet."
"You're shit at lying."
"Raven made me wear it."
"Uh-huh."
"Erik, please unwrap the journalist."
"No."
"For me?"
"Alright, alright."
"Thank you my friend."
"No more denim suits."
"No."
A/N: This idea was prompted by someone (if I ever remember who, I'll give credit) saying that Erik being colour-blind explained so much (and giving me new head-canon). Happy International Fanworks Day!
