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.

He circled his arms around her waist. She let him. Her hands were still free for the block, one at her chin, the other draped along his shoulders. "So whats your idea of a manly drink then?"
"Hmmm. Manly drink, manly drink." Lori drummed her fingers along her lips as she ran through her mental database. "If you mean 'puts hairs on your chest' manly then i'd say scotch or something. If you mean, 'original thinker yet still like your taste buds', I'd say screwdriver. And there's the ever safe frat boy mating call of 'gimmie a beer.'" She shrugged relating what, in her experience she had found to be true. Well, someone had to teach him.
"Oh, lil miss webster over here are we?" She felt his hand twitch at the small of her back and she arched her brow.
"What are you..." She gasped in mock shock and covered her mouth in horror. "did you learn something here?" She chimed out accusation-ally.
Geo laughed as Lori started naming off 'manly drinks. "My pop used to drink scotch so when i would throw parties that was what we used to have. And I can never see myself as a 'frat boy'. As for screw drivers i've never actually had one. " He shrugged and looked up into Lori's baby blues.
She then reacted to his hand twitch in the total opposite direction, she asked if he learned something. "Yeah thats what happened," Geo said a hint of sarcasm in his voice and a wink in his eye. "Besides, beautiful women have that effect on me."
"Beautiful women often teach you things?" She arched her brow, asking in a truly bewildered tone.
"What about teaching something to a beautiful lady?" It was a long time in coming, but despite her fun in their little quip war she'd always kept her objectives in the back of her mind. She shifted her weight and tilted her head.
Geo smiled, "I may be young but baby I can teach you lots of things." Geo said a smile on his face, he continued to look into Lori's eyes and decided it was about time that he made another move. He lifted his right hand and put it under her chin, going in for another kiss.
"I may be young but baby I can teach you lots of things." He lifted his hand and put it under her chin. She knew what was going on the moment he had that look in his eye and his fingers connected with the soft skin of her chin. She had only moments to decide if she could get away with another block or not.
Ah screw it.
Their lips touched softly at first and then with growing intensity. A few accidental zaps arched between them, but she didn't have to worry about that with this one. Her hands slid to either side of Geo's face, potentially deadly for anyone who's brain wasn't full of rocks. She used the placement of her small hands to separate their faces. She chuckled throatily and leaned her forehead against Geo's.
"Tell me this isn't the typical Order induction ceremony?" She kissed his nose, knowing that he would object, but giving him the chance to defend himself. "And then... She kissed him on the lips, briefly but deeply. Her arms slithered from his face to around his neck. This time she only separated their faces enough for her to look into his eyes and talk with her lips still tantalizingly close to his. "Tell me everything you know about Haywire?" She softened her request by making it a question and scooting infinitesimally closer. "I'm not going anywhere anytime soon."
Geo smiled as he succeed in a kiss, and wow was it a kiss. He thought he was good, like he had been told many times, but she was better. She knew just what she was doing and she knew it, a few spots of heat hit Geo's lip, wow it was getting hot in here. His hands instictivly wrapped tighter around her waist drawing herr closer to him.
She seperated to speak, and Geo laughed, "God i hope so." He said going in for a hard kiss. Then she seperated and began speaking again, Geo laughed, "So thats how your playing things. Seduce me then squeeze out information." Geo smiled and looked into her eyes and kissing her breifly, "What do you want to know," he said, his eyebrow raising when she said she wasn't going anywhere soon.
Her drew her in closer. Yeah, yeah so she wasn't feeling particularly subtle these days. Lori was a 'get to the point' kind of girl. Efficiency was admirable even if it made your motives more transparent. It was information time. A little kissing only oiled the gears on his jaw.
Lori had to laugh when Geo hoped this was the new Order introduction for everyone. He probably hadn't thought that one through all the way. Geo laughed nearly every time she spoke. As if her words were really just in the way of the smooches. Well, to him they probably were. "So thats how your playing things. Seduce me then squeeze out information."
Lori recoiled a bit, mock hurt. "But I thought you were the one who seduced me?" She teased. "It's only fair that you kiss and tell." They kissed briefly and Geo seemed convinced, "What do you want to know?"
She squeezed her arms around Geo's neck, settling into his lap like a kid might sit on Santa's lap... or well, more like a mischievous elf helper might sit on naughty Santa's lap when Mrs. Clause wasn't looking. "I don't know enough to ask questions so why don't you start with - oh, let's see... everything?" She leveled her playful gaze at Geo again.
Geo grinned as Lori spoke and looked into his eyes, he kissed her then looked back into her eyes. He kept his arms around her, rubbing her back slightly."Haywire originated from a mutant, her powers effected humans and mutants in several horrific ways." That was all he was giving up for now, he kissed her again and raised his eyebrow.
"Now i know that wasn't enough for you." Geo chuckled.
A thoughtful look crossed Lori's face as she processed what Geo had said. "Haywire originated from a mutant, Originated? So it is something else now. "her powers effected humans and mutants in several horrific ways." her powers. so haywire was a person? and a girl person to boot. and then there was the obvious and burning question of 'what did it do?' what could be horrific in several ways to mutants and humans alike?
"Now i know that wasn't enough for you." Geo chuckled thinking himself in a position of power now, and Lori couldn't deny that it was true in a way. She had set up a barter system of sorts and he was the one selling the information. Looks like the price just went up.
She ran her fingers idly through his hair mussing it and untangling bits that had intertwined from riding a motorcycle without a helmet. "Actually, it sounds like that wasn't enough for you."
She leaned back against his encircled arms and covered a yawn with her hand. Again she was debating how much she was willing to give for information she could get for free later if she just stuck around.
Geo was liking this game, he gave up information for hot girl time. He wondered if she would be doing this if she didn't want to know things but he didn't pay attentions to the thoughts, just drown them in more sexy time.
Geo closed his eyes as she ran her fingers through his hair and removed his left hand from her waist and ran it through her hair. He kissed her again deeply and said, "No, no I don't think it nearly was." He said a sly smile on his face.
He stroked her hair and they kissed again deeply before he spoke again, "No, no I don't think it nearly was." And just like that he handed the reigns of control back to her. He admitted she had something that he needed. What a nice boy. She shared a smile with him, though they were most definitely smiling for different reasons.
She kissed along his cheek bone moving toward his ear with each pucker. She stopped and whispered, "So keep talking," once she got there.
Gep cpntinued to be intranced by the girl, he slid his face down her cheek and nuzzled into her neck. "It's been weaponized, it causes humans to get deathly ill and mutants to lose control of their powers and go on a rampage, only the Order will be safe from it." He continued to hold the girl tight.
Geo slid his face down her cheek and nuzzled into her neck. She enjoyed the feeling of his warm breath against the skin on the side of her neck as he spoke again.
"It's been weaponized, it causes humans to get deathly ill and mutants to lose control of their powers and go on a rampage, only the Order will be safe from it." And there it was -- the juiciest nugget of information yet. Weaponized. Again with the aggressive word choice. Humans got deathly ill? as in... dead? and what saved the mutants from the same fate? The "x-gene" as it was called? Though that hardly seemed worth it as mutants went on rampages... that sounded recklessly dangerous. Though, immunity didn't sound like too bad of a deal, presuming one could live through the storm of psycho rampaging mutants.
"Geez, you guys really have it out for the norm-o's." Lori yawned again over Geo's shoulder. Her curiosity was mostly satiated for the night. Unfortunately she now had a very eager teen to deal with. What to do? What to do?
Lori wrapped her arms around Geo and lay her head on his shoulder, closing her eyes as she did so. It was comfortable here in the close circle of Geo's arms. She could totally just go to sleep if she could bring herself to trust him enough. Augh. She was dragging physically and mentally now. She was sure she was wasting the opportunity for more from Geo, but she couldn't think of what else to say.
Geo tilted his head on top of Lori's when she laid against his shoulder. "Well alot of us have been hurt by them. You know my story and I bet if you asked every one around here you'd hear similar things." Geo adjusted his arms around Lori's waist, wow this was comfortable, he dug this chick. She yawned a few times and Geo looked at her, "HOw are you feeling now?"
Geo shifted to lay his head against hers. Somehow they had gone from kiss and tell to cuddle time. It didn't bother her in the least. "Well alot of us have been hurt by them. You know my story and I bet if you asked every one around here you'd hear similar things."
"Even so," She nuzzled closer against his neck so that the bridge of her nose fit snugly along the line of his neck, "seems like a lot of work for a little revenge. Not sure how awesome it'll be to see New York after Haywire either. There are lots of us here. New York, the place, might not survive..." She tried not to yawn so much. It wasn't that the company or conversation was boring, it was pure and simple fatigue.
"HOw are you feeling now?"
"Tired." She stated simply as she opened and closed her eyes against the skin of Geo's neck. "Though if you'd shut up and sit still I could probably sleep right here."
Even as her body was relaxing, she was mentally fighting off the sleepiness. Let Geo fall asleep first so she could slip away to an empty room where it was safer... or maybe it would be safer with an Order member...? ah but she could probably seal the door on an empty room... and how long were Neptune's brothers going to sleep from the massive shock she delivered? She could potentially sneak back to Venus's room if for no other reason than to steal his silk sheets. Her options and plans were running lethargically through her mind and making less and less sense.
