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.

"Well.... don't think you have to decide now. We've got time." He says, kissing her. "I'll do whatever you think's best." He pauses. "I could always do the commute myself- to teach, I guess. But we'd still need a babysitter..."
"No it is fine, we'll move back it is simpler that way. And there is a much larger babysitter pool." Delphi points out reasonably, "Also if our kids grow up somewhere where their eventual mutations will never be an issue it will probably be better for them."
Siren looks over towards their room. "...Yeah. What do you think their powers will be like?" He shakes his head. "And how old do you think they'll be?" It's sort of a rhetorical question, more some of the things he's worried about.
"I'm sure their powers will fit them and they will come when they are needed. It is no use worring about it so relax." Delphi says, her turn to comfort Siren a little giving his hand a good squeeze.
He looks at her. "<.... God you're amazing.>" He nuzzles her. "<and... I do-- love you.>" He adds quietly. He's still having troubles saying it, but it's getting a bit easier.
Siren returns the kiss happily, trying to not let his thoughts drift to other ideas- Delphi is right, after all. He does have work, and she does need to sleep.
"Ok so I guess I can add packing to my list of things to do this week." Delphi says looking around the tiny apartment, "Any idea where we will be at or when she wants us to move in by?"
"Tricity said to just tell her when we're coming." Siren says, also looking around the apartment. Part of him wished they were staying- they'd only been there a few months, but their kids had attached so many memories of the place.... but on the other hand, the opportunities the institute offered were too many to ignore really.
"I'll call up the Institute later today and check with her. I think the quicker we move the better off. I call up the super and give our notice ohh and I need to make sure we get the deposite back . . . yeah I need a pad of paper and a pen and a hot bath. Maybe then I'll get a good list of what needs to all be done going. What time do you think you'll be home tonight? Should I leave some thing out for your dinner in the microwave or refridgerator?" Delphi asks Siren her mind jumping around a bit.
Siren pulls out his club clothes, and changes while she draws her bath, double checking that the kids are all getting off to sleep ok. Aria still seems to want to stay up a bit, but Siren can tell that she'll be asleep soon. "You really don't have to worry about it, ok?" He says, standing in the bathroom doorway, observing his girlfriend. "... I ever tell you how sexy you are?"
"Worry about- Siren! go, we don't have time." Delphi says embarassed to catch him just standing there staring. She hops into the bathtub, not that clear water is really going to help at all.
