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 chuckled, snuggling against her a bit. "I think I've proven I can hold my own when the chips are down," he added, sticking out his tongue at her this time. "It'll be fun, like a date. Our way. You and me, doing something silly and illegal for no other reason than because we can. What do you say?"
Ty said the word 'date' and Tses casually looked around for any sign of danger. It still felt risky saying that word right now, after their relationship slid into it's rockiest levels. But nothing blew up, the sky didn't crash down, and she let herself nest up against him, however cautiously.
"I guess that could be fun." She slowly decided. Still no fire and brimstone. Maybe it would be fine.

Ty didn't notice her looking around, though him slipping and saying the word 'date' gave the ginger some hints of concern as well. Hopefully him saying it didn't damn their day, their relationship, and themselves to oblivion. Nah...it'll be fine.
At least that's what he spent the next minute or three telling himself. When she agreed, he let out a quiet sigh of relief, followed by his signature grin.
"So...the question is...what are we gunna pull off?"
Tses sat in silence for a moment, considering his question. She rarely thought through a heist, and even the Valentine's Day stuff she stole was mostly on a whim: a little of this, a little of that. It was hard to plan because plans changed anyway. It was easier to fly by the seat of your pants. But, considering the shape she was in after the chaos of the past few months, maybe planning wasn't so bad.
"You pick." Tses remarked finally, and nested back into the couch.

Ty wasn't really one for planning; heck, plans weren't his strong point. But today...and Tses...totally worth it. Ty thought a moment, scratching his chin. Then, he smirked, a mysterious twinkle in his eye.
"Let's do something in celebration of the 'holiday,'" he started, complete with air-quotes. "Something in the spirit of love, but...our way." Their way not necessarily ending the night like most couples do, to say the least. "Let's knock off a Build-a-Bear..."
Tses watched Ty scheme, relieved he was doing the planning now, but also curious what he would want them to do. She made a face slightly at the 'spirit of love' part, but then she seemed to consider the rest.
Build-A-Bear. It was tempting, but... "Are we stealing money or unstuffed cute and fuzzies?" She snorted slightly at the image of Ty trying to drag a bag filled with unstuffed tigers home.

When she made the face, Ty was tempted to tell her he was being sarcastic about the spirt of love thing. Mostly. Ish. He gave a grin at her question.
"Honestly, we don't need either. I was thinking we nab some money, and maybe I steal you a nice sentiment to go with your collection. If not, then we can always hit up a candy store for its money and it's merchandise? Either would have to be a night-time score though." He let out a soft chuckle as a thought crossed his mind. "Gotta admit though, this way's much more fun than the way most people spend this crappy holiday." Pausing to give her a quick kiss on the mouth, he went back to his planning with a smirk.
Tses considered the options, and finally decided as long as they were stealing something, she didn't really care what it was. "Okay, I guess we can do this 'heist' of yours, then eat when we get back. We can take the money, and maybe snag one of the display bears if it's cute enough..." She considered, which took enough of her focus she didn't resist the kiss much. Occasionally she had to grumble about the mushy stuff though, otherwise Ty may get the idea she had softened up or something.
The heist could help with that though.
"So are we conducting this robbery during the daylight then? I admit that's not the usual tactic..." She thought out loud. The only thing she stole in daylight was a pair of earrings, and she ended up with a rather frightening friend at that point.

"Heh...Broad daylight? I pick pockets and jack cars in broad daylight. But knock off a build a bear? I'm not that ballsy..." Standing up, he looked at her with a smile. Sometimes he just wanted to do nothing but hold her close and kiss her, but that wasn't Tses's style. He was finally understanding that the little firecracker was more like a cat; he knew she loved him, but she showed the affection on her own terms. It really didn't bother him too much anymore. After all, their relationship wasn't completely void of romance, it was just different.
Finally, he snapped out of his little daze and made his way to the kitchen, pulling out the steaks and putting them on the pan. Maybe depending on how their plans went, they'd at least get to end on a sweet note. Even still...they'd come a long way; Ty had at least been promoted to sharing her bed instead of sleeping on the couch. He set the steaks on two separate plates, placing those on the table.
"Steaks are up," he called. Sometimes he wondered what it was like for her. How emotions...felt under that wall she'd put up. Too bad his mutation didn't work that way.
"I love you," he said casually, adding a "What do ya want to drink?" after the short pause. Eh, maybe he got away with it.
