Good news about canon!Charles not being a Gary Stu - it's hard to tell through the medium of fanfic, where it's not always possible to say just where the Mary-Sue-ism is coming from. ;-)
The rest of it certainly doesn't sound promising, otoh... and I'm not sure how much the musical montage can save. ;-) Although a nice plucky soundtrack with a sense of humor would probably improve the more boring action scenes for me! *g*
Yeah, I think sticking to fanfic is probably the best way for me.
