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.

Himari's eyes crinkled a bit at all the gems everywhere. The woman was a menace, a public service is what she was doing, no doubt about that! Plus if the woman was feeling better sooner she could punch her guilt free, win win in her book.
>> "This is very elaborate food"
"Some foods in Japan are as much ritual as eating or preparing. Pretty common for sick people though at home. Easy to eat." Eyes squinting a bit at the latter questions and humming softly to herself as she ate some of her own bowl. "No powers, but nature. Do not know all the English words, but gives body vitamins and other things to power it up and some things to make feel good. Others like plum change insides to make sickness not like body as much. All very healthy and good for you. Insides be strong and outside be happy. Grandpa helpt teach. What your grandpa teach you?"
Pink eyebrow parking querulous at her as they enjoyed the meal together.

It was. The tea had cleared Amethyst's head up a little bit, and the food felt better. She could even taste is, which had been a problem since her head was all congested. Maybe the pink haired girl knew what she was doing.

"Mostly how to behave like royalty" Amethyst admitted. Grandfather had been a distant figure, as much a ruler as a family member, and she did not remember much of him. She learned what she was supposed to learn, but mostly from tutors. That was before she's gained her powers and became a more important member of the family.

An eyebrow quirked at her response as well as carefully keeping in check a retort about stuck up royalty or 'way to be a trope.' Currently the stuffy Princess, heh, was a patient and deserving of as much patience as she could muster. It didn't stop someone from imagining smother certain unnamed royalty with pillows did it?
"I see. My grandfather taught me very much about many things. I miss our time apart. We both share a love for nature and the outdoors." The fact everyone thought he was dead was everyone else's problem. Only her sister thought she wasn't crazy.
"We did not share names. My given name is Himari and my family name is Ishida. What would your royal highness' be?" Managing to keep most of her sarcasm from her tone as she said royal. Turning her attention back to her food for a moment before a more important thought bounced into her head.
"If you are royalty what are you doing here? Are you completing some duty that only you can do?" Showing far more interest in the princess herself as a person then as a patient then she had before.
Some grandfathers were better than others. Amethyst did not mind having a proper royal education, but she wondered what it would be like to share nature and time with a parental figure. And tea. The tea was good.
>>"We did not share names. My given name is Himari and my family name is Ishida. What would your royal highness' be?... If you are royalty what are you doing here? Are you completing some duty that only you can do?"
"Princess Amethyst of Atlantis. I'm here as... a sort of ambassador to the school. Representing the Atlantean royal family, and the demigods of Atlantis."

Himari blinked a few times at that. Princess of Atlantis and ambassador? She wondered if somehow she knew Celeste then. Then again Celeste didn't look on her time on atlantis fondly. Was this one of the royals that made life difficult for her? She certainly seemed like the type to be completely impossible to deal with on any level.
"Oh? I wouldn't think there was a need for an ambassador. There seems to be lots of people from Atlantis at this school. Are their unseen tensions or is Atlantis worried about a... migration away?" Why did important people have to be so trying to get along with outside of her own family, father not included of course.
"Is their many Princesses in your family?" Trying obviously to get the sickly woman to talk more about herself and Atlantis.
Saying she was an ambassador at least masked the fact that the Queen had ordered her to come. Possibly as a punishment, or just to get her away fro court. Honestly Amethyst had no ambitions for the throne, and she was not very close to it in line. Her cousin was just a jealous b...
>>"Oh? I wouldn't think there was a need for an ambassador. There seems to be lots of people from Atlantis at this school. Are their unseen tensions or is Atlantis worried about a... migration away?"
"Worried? No." the princess shook her head, then sneezed, and tossed some more gemstones to the side. "A lot of the gorgons come here. The Queen thought it was time for a demigod to represent Atlantis too."
>>"Is their many Princesses in your family?"
"Quite a few." Amethyst shrugged "The royal family is big. Do you have many people in your family?"
