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.

Juliette couldn't even bring herself to fake surprise. Nothing was weird anymore on that night. It wasn't weird that a teen patient was asking her for a ride to wherever the hell he lived after a long shift. It wasn't weird that he didn't seem to feel awkward about asking either, as he stared at her and sipped the coffee she had gotten for him, a patient, from the staff lounge.
She just sat in silence for a minute, staring hard at Jiri with a less than pleased expression. After a second or so, she started to laugh. She wasn't sure whether it was the lack of sleep, or the frustration finally coming to a boiling point, but it wasn't something she usually did, and she found herself unable to stop.
After a minute or so, she caught her breath and looked back at Jiri. She threw her hands up in her air, one of them empty, and the other still holding her clipboard.
"I don't have a car," she admitted, which made her start laughing again.

Oh god he'd broken her.
(Or this was still a dream.) (Don't think like that don't think like that really bad idea to think like that again tonight--)
“Are you… okay?” The teen asked hesitantly. Because honestly, she was starting to freak him out a little, and it probably showed in his face. “Like, I didn't possess you and then forget about it, right? Did I?” Had he? Crap what if he'd gone in there and kicked down a few mental garbage cans and now she needed to check herself into the psych ward, he seemed to remember wanting her to do that at some point--
“Listen, I am so sorry, whatever I did I didn't mean to do, I mean I meant it but I thought I was sleeping, I would never do that to people awake, but it's just really hard to tell because the world is insane so seriously how can you ever tell if you're really awake or not--”
And now he was babbling and she was laughing and he was not entirely certain which of them was louder.
Juliette waved her hand at the teen as he babbled on. There was too much talking at once, making it difficult to figure out exactly what he was saying. The noise of his babbling had at least stopped her laughing, though. That much she was grateful for.
"It's alright," she told him after a moment. It really wasn't, since there was a ton of clean up to be done from his little escapade, but at least he seemed to feel bad about it. Besides, she figured, other people had done worse, more violent things. "Just promise me you'll be a bit more careful."
"I really can't drive you home, though," she repeated, in case he had missed that little bit of information. "I really don't have a car. I take the subway everywhere."

He literally could not promise her that. Not being careful was practically a side effect of his mutation. He could think he'd be careful and swear he'd be careful, but five minutes of 'sleep' and any practical sense of caution was gone.
“I will drink a lot of caffeine,” the teenager promised instead, and emphasized the point by finishing off his break room cup.
>> "I really can't drive you home, though...”
“That's okay. Umm. Can I have another cup of coffee before I go?”
Thus armed, the Body Snatcher ventured back out into NYC's streets. So help them all.
