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.

Ty smirked; he didn't know if the "if you ever need to" ended there, or if there was more to that sentence, but he didn't question it. He'd just take it as it was. Ty took a breath through his nose. "It's kinda a long story. It starts with this chihuahua tugging at my pants leg. Which I shoed off, and it ran away."
He stopped to take a bite of burger, then looked at her. "It ends with this poodle charging me from around the corner, chasing me up a fire escape, and nearly taking my leg off at the ankle." Pausing to take another bite, he continued.
"And I'm talking about a full-size poodle, not one of those miniature or toy things."
Charlotte's shoulders began to shake slightly as she tossed her head back, emitting a loud laugh. The thought of a grown man being attacked by two adorable breeds of dogs. A minute or so passed and the blonde sighed, her face flushed and chest heaving as she caught her breath.
"I'm sorry, but that. That is hilarious." Taking a bite of her burger, the mutant flashed the redhead a smile. Well, if you could call a mouthful of food and a face covered in jalapeño BBQ sauce a smile. She was starving, and that meant Charlotte didn't care how she looked or what people thought of her. That food was going to be devoured in the blink of an eye.
"I still think you should have been able to take on a full-grown poodle." she murmured, a smirk on her face as she cleaned off the sauce, tossing her balled up napkin at Ty.

"Maybe I should have, but when a fifty pound dog snarls and charges at me, I ain't taking any chances." He stuck his tongue out; nothing would change his thinking that poodles and chihuahuas were the most annoying dogs in the world. In fact, he was certain that the only thing worse than that was a mix of the two.
Ty's table manners weren't perfect, by any means, but he had managed to keep his face relatively clean. When he'd finished however, he caught a balled up napkin right between the eyes. Smirking, he picked up his straw--which he hadn't used, and took off the very end. Putting the open end to his lips, he gave a sharp blow, sending the paper wrapper flying off of the straw and straight for his date.
"I'm gonna buy you a chihuahua for your birthday." Charlotte teased, smiling as she ate another french fry. She hadn't realized just how starving she was until there was food in front of her. The burger was almost gone, and her mound of fries was slowly dwindling. As hungry as she way, she may need to order dessert.
The blonde glanced up at her date and -- thwap. Something hit her forward. Frowning, she watched as the small piece of straw paper fluttered to the ground. The nerve!
"You better watch yourself, mister. I know where I can get a bunch of dogs, so you'd better be careful." she warned, jabbing a manicured finger through the air in the redhead's direction. Of course, she wouldn't actually do anything to hurt Ty. But he didn't need to know that.

Ty raised a brow, then simply shook his head. "Uh-uh." At her threat, he merely shrugged, giving her an innocent grin. "Hey, had to retaliate somehow, and my napkin's a lot dirtier than yours," he teased. His own plate was empty by now, but as noted by his growling stomach, he wasn't full yet either.
Looking at her, he turned the conversation to a little more of a serious note. "How ya feel about dessert?"
As she chewed the last bite of her burger, Charlotte chased it with the rest of her drink, an irritating suction noise filling the restaurant as she maneuvered her straw to get every drop at the bottom of her glass.
"Dessert sounds wonderful." she stated, raising a hand to wave at their waitress. The old woman nodded and held up a finger, signaling to give her a minute. "I wonder why they keep her around." she murmured as she turned her gaze back to her date. "I can't see her being very beneficial."
Exhaling, the blonde leaned back in the booth, a hand resting on her stomach. She was full, but no meal was complete without dessert. Even if she had to force it down.

"That it does," Ty answered, stifling a belch as Charlotte waved down the waitress. "No idea. Maybe she's close to retiring or something. Or maybe they feel sorry for her. Who knows?"
As the elderly woman came back, Ty too knew he was going to have to force down whatever he ordered. But dessert was one of those heavenly things he didn't do a whole lot. So today...he was going to make it happen. "Can we get a slice of apple pie for me, and whatever the darlin' across from me wants?" Ty asked, the Southern heritage making itself very prominent in his accent.
Charlotte's lipped pursed as the redhead ordered his dessert. Pie was good, but it didn't quite satiate the craving she had. Her eyes wondered over to the counter, decorated with countless sweets: sugar cookies, key lime pie, cobblers, blondies. And then there it was. The last slice of a two-tiered chocolate cake, covered in vanilla buttercream and sprinkled with almonds.
"I'll take the chocolate cake, please." the blonde murmured, her eyes finding their way back to the waitress. "With a scoop of vanilla ice-cream."
"I'm going to have to swim ten-thousand laps to work all this off." she laughed, tossing another balled up napkin at Ty.

This time, Ty caught the napkin, and he didn't retaliate. He merely flashed her a mischievous grin, coupled with a wink. "There's more than one way to work off dessert," he replied simply, sipping his tea.
Moments passed, and the waitress returned with the pair's desserts--and the bill. The latter, Ty quickly grabbed and peeked at without giving the blonde girl across from him a chance to even argue. He was paying.
Then he grabbed his fork and tore into the apple pie, pausing after the first bite, a dreamy expression of sorts on his face. So delicious...and it was still warm!
Charlotte shot her date a raised eyebrow, shaking her head as a smile pulled at her lips. "And what other ways are you thinking of?" the blonde queried as she reached for the bill. Her face shifted down into a frown as Ty's hand dartedin front of hers, claiming the bill as his own.
The mutant mumbled a "Hmph" and sunk her fork into the chocolate cake on her plate. Why argue over a bill when there was cake to eat? And said cake, Charlotte had decided, was the epitome of perfection. There was no doubt that it was chocolate: each bite felt sweeter than the last, and it had to be shared if there was any way it would be finished.
"Do you want a bite?" she asked as she lifted her fork, and a small chunk of the cake, toward the redhead.

Ty didn't answer her question; not verbally anyway. A simple smile and a smug wink was all that would suffice. Ty grinned again, this time victoriously as he heard her disdain at him taking the bill.
The lad shook his head at her offer, a hand on his stomach. "Nah...I couldn't eat another bite if I tried," he answered. Putting forth a large amount of effort, he managed to stand up, stretching a bit.
