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.

As she leaned away he felt the bond they had formed pulled and dramatically cut off, as part of the warmth stuck with him but soon dissapated as it always would. With his head hung a lil low he strolled over to the other side of the couch and sat down with a thump, rubbing the back of his neck as he pondered. Nik was a bit surprised at her reply as he hadnt even considered how far they couldve gone with their passions. He turned to her with a inquisitive look "You dont think we would've.. yaknow.. done it, do you?" sitting up straight. "I mean.. Ive never, hell not even in my dreams have i ever .." trailing off at the end.
Jaya sighed from her end of the couch. She had resorted back to drumming her fingers on her knees. She sat in silence for a moment or two before responding. "The real question is, if we had gone farther, would either of us thought long enough to stop it from happening?" she said finally. "I mean, this is a bit of a first for both of us, who's to say how far we could go? We've never dealt with this situation before." She glanced over at him and smiled. She reached over and grabbed his hand to give it a little squeaze. "Hey, we're both new at this, I'm just saying we shouldn't rush into this whole 'holy crap I can touch you without killing you' thing." She returned to drumming her fingers.
"I guess.. beyond the fact that i wouldnt really know what to do." Putting one hand in his pocket and the other scratching his nose he continued "Hell, i was pretty content with making out. To tell you the truth, when i had asked you if you were alright with 'this' i was speaking in terms of the bond.. That is to say..." displaying a look of uncertainty "your the only person ive ever gone this far with. And for once in my life.. doubt.. regret.. doesnt even exist. A warm smile and good conversation were a rarity to me.. and things like a hug, even a kiss, were out of the question." Turning his gaze in her direction "You've given me more than all the world could afford, and then some. I would never dream of asking more of you than what you have already given me.." trailing off in a sincere tone.
((thanks, and sorry for the lateness on the thread, been out and about lately and i convinced myself i was too drunk to go RPing lol))
Jaya sat there for a minute, soaking everything in. "Well, I'm glad we're clear on that now," she said casually. She got up went over to the sink, picking up her glass and refilling it. After she downed the water she walked back over to the couch. "Well, I don't know about you, but I'm feeling a little tired. Perhaps we should call it a night?"
"Agreed" he said standing up from the couch. Strolling a bit he came up to what seemed to be a piece of furniture covered by a tarp. Slipping it off revealed a nice regal looking dinner chair that must of been abandoned and placed in the safe house some time ago. "To be honest I really dont sleep much. My previous professions had lil room for sleeping and got me in the habit of staying awake, so i'll just stand watch here while you take the coach, ok?" plopping down into the chair.
"Ok," Jaya said. She picked up the blanket and went back to the couch and laid down. She glanced over at Nic in the chair once, then rolled over and covered herself up with the blanket. She lay there for awhile, listening to the sounds of the city at night, taxi cabs honking and people shouting, it was practically a lullaby for her these days. It wasn't too long before she drifted off to sleep.
Nik faded off into his own little world as he sloached over in his chair, the room around him replaced with the illusions of his mind.. and of his past. As he struggled with these repressive thoughts he couldnt help but remove himself from the mental torcher with a peaceful glance over to his impressionable new roomate. In his mind she was a fantasy, but his eyes could not lie about what they had seen. A young woman, as beautiful as any flower, had within no time conquerored the icy walls that stood as a fortress around his heart.. such a flower had breaken down a man that in days past would have turned away any effort to open his heart and still with a most cheery dispostion, shrug it off as if it werent something to be considered an accomplishment.. such innosence would only kill Nik inside and yet bring new life to him as well.
Staring into the emptyness that was the shadows of the safehouse, his mind was engulfed in the sensation that preceded not to long ago. Brushing his hand across his lips lightly he stared at his fingertips, the feeling that coursed through them still engraved deep within his psyche. He could almost feel as if her lips had never departed his.. as if she never left his arms.. and continued even now to hold one another. As Jaya appeared to drift into her slate of rest Nik, in a meditative trance, drifted on through his thoughts.. reliving nightmare upon nightmare, but always seeming to delve back to that one moment, that one time in his life where he knew.. that he wasnt alone...
