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.

"And you're beautiful, Daria. And I only say that because my mind's still spinning enough that I can't come up with a word more fitting than 'beautiful'."

Daria smiled.
"That..is a good question. I've never been to Ohio, I told you that. So why don't you give me a tour. First stop, sunglasses." she said. "You need your back since you do that little..glowy thing."
"It's the same as any other city, really... but you DID express interest in a shopping spree for a certain little girl who passed out in your bed yesterday, didn't you?" Mike asked, teasing her beneath the blankets as he snuggled her closer. Should've closed that balcony door last night...

"Oh, yeah! Kit-Kat's gonna be so surprised when I come back with gifts." Daria giggled and moved closer. "she like's oragami so we'll find books, and she has about the same size frame as my cousin Deanna so I can shop for her,....she seems to like blue. And we can even get stuff for Dafi. I'm so glad kitty's not a dog person..."
She continued to go off on a tangent about the shopping spree, obviously excited and happy.
Mike grinned as he kissed her. "You're so cute when you're all bubbly like that," he said. "That'll be the event of the day, then... Big-ass shopping spree."

Daria's smile faded for a minute, not into sadness but into thoughtfullness. 'Bubbly' hadn't been used to describe her in a while..a very long while. There was no doubt about it-Mike was very, very good for her.
Eventually, when I go back home to see about the restaurant, you have to come with me. I know Pops saw to it that the charges were lifted but the racial profiling ansd angry cops are still around. She said as she wrapped a sheet around her and headed for the shower. I don't really wanna go by myself, and I know you'll ask to come along.
Mike followed her, shrugging his newly-reacquired boxers back on first. He started shaving while she showered. Those fools will treat you like a goddess if I want them to. Nothing to fear, love.
Whatever makes you feel more comfortable. People will only see what we want them to see. Besides... there's no reason to hide yourself. You're beautiful.
Yes... but really, what are we going to do? Besides, even if they do know we're both mutants, I'm going to be drawing more hate than you will at this particular gathering.
It's up to you, though, baby. Whatever it takes for you to feel comfortable.

Well, eventually, I'm going to have to get comfortable with hiding. I'll figure it out...maybe I wont hide anything.... I mean, the outside world is cruel and I can't take you with me everywhere I go.

Daria laughed loudly, then made a weird sneezing noise as water entered her nose. She panicked for a minute feeling as if she couldn't breath. There was a break in her thought pattern for a minute as images of ran and the car crash filled her mind.
She coughed and leaned against the shower wall, away from the water for a moment.
Well, she tried to continue not wanting to alarm Mike. I'm sure you'd get sick of it eventually. she coughed again as she tried to control her breathing.
