The X-men run missions and work together with the NYPD, striving to maintain a peaceful balance between humans and mutants. When it comes to a fight, they won't back down from protecting those who need their help.
Haven presents itself as a humanitarian organization for activists, leaders, and high society, yet mutants are the secret leaders working to protect and serve their kind. Behind the scenes they bring their goals into reality.
From the time when mutants became known to the world, SUPER was founded as a black-ops division of the CIA in an attempt to classify, observe, and learn more about this new and rising threat.
The Syndicate works to help bring mutantkind to the forefront of the world. They work from the shadows, a beacon of hope for mutants, but a bane to mankind. With their guiding hand, humanity will finally find extinction.
Since the existence of mutants was first revealed in the nineties, the world has become a changed place. Whether they're genetic misfits or the next stage in humanity's evolution, there's no denying their growing numbers, especially in hubs like New York City. The NYPD has a division devoted to mutant related crimes. Super-powered vigilantes help to maintain the peace. Those who style themselves as Homo Superior work to tear society apart for rebuilding in their own image.

"Oh." Kealey said. No more fighting...so...so that meant.
"So you guys are really serious then, huh?" the blond finished a little lamely. "And since you're already dating...that means....that this was a special anniversary?" Oh man, this was Aurum's little sister. This was a terrible idea, and that little raise in pitch at the end of the statement...that made it a question.

Well, one thing was certain. Kealey was never going to ask for details. She didn't want details. Not from Aurum's little sister. She supposed she'd just have to do with her assumptions.
"Sounds like a good New Year's." she said simply, "Holidays are good for revelations...and loosening of inhibitions."
She paused and considered this for a moment.
"Which is probably why it'd be good to avoid them for wedding days."

Kealey's eyebrow rose with Ami's description of the New Year's present she'd given to Gawain...or Maya. Ohhhhh, to Maya. That was...interesting.
But the bow...Kealey laughed out loud, she had to laugh out loud. "I should have known I wasn't the only one clever enough to think of something like that."

And Kealey blushed. Blushed from the roots of her blond hair right down to her toes. Suddenly, she didn't feel so bad talking to Aurum's sister about all of this. Apparently he was awfully free with his own words.
"Yes. Well, that." she said, clearing her throat a little, and debating exactly what else she was going to say.
Well. There was....yes. That. A triumphant smile lit the older woman's features.
"I haven't had any complaints so far. And I'll bet you were wearing more than just the bow."

Boy, if this was gaining the upper hand, it was sure an odd experience. Her cheeks were burning more than they had in ages. How had they gotten on this topic anyway?
Aurum's little sister pointed out that Maya hadn't complained either, and Kealey winced a bit internally. It was time for a subject change.
"I'm lucky too...and now we're going to be married."
Down the blond sank, into one of the study room chairs.
Oh good, a subject change. Yeah. She supposed that was a bit much. One didn't really share those details... all the better, really. Those were for her alone.
She pulled up a chair and scooted into it, herself. Amelia rested her arms on the table and relaxed.
Marriage was a cool topic, too. Easier. And also, a lot less likely to set them both ablaze.
"How did he pop the question?" She asked curiously. She hadn't dug into that yet. Just bounced and somehow gotten into a whole other realm.

Kealey laughed at Ami's question. It would have been funny if Shin had simply left it at the ring and not said anything. It hadn't been like that though.
"I think he said something like, 'Do you want to?' Honestly it's all a bit of a blur." the blond explained, brows furrowing for a moment.
