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.

Rebecca very clearly did not endear herself to Svety, earning both herself and Jude some catty insults. The young girl was not accustomed to people disliking her, let alone loathing her, but it seemed like she had earned herself an enemy.
And there they were again, talking about Svety and her "dangerous mutation!" What on earth was her power? When Rebecca touched her, everything metal in the room reacted. Rebecca had more control than that usually... "Did you... trigger me?" There was a pause, before the insult returned to the forefront of her mind. "Ah'm NAE an idiot!" Rebecca pouted and considered shoving the blonde, but that would be improper, and at this point, possibly dangerous.
>>"I told her you were dangerous for mutants especially. I didn't sink you wanted me to advertise exactly... everysing."
"How very considerate." Sveta frowned, backing away from the both of them. So Jude was really talking to the redheaded hussy about her and her abilities? How nice. Did he pick another mutant on purpose?
>>"Did you... trigger me?... Ah'm NAE an idiot!"
"You triggered yourself when you touched me." Sveta pointed that out. At this point, nobody was allowed to touch anyone. Definitely not Jude.
"Have fun."
Turning around on her heels once again, she left the restaurant. Might as well get to the street before the utensils blow up in her face.
*italics are spoken in Russian* Thanks to Siren for the sig and avi!
"Nope!" He reached out to grab Svetlana's arm, but caught the door on it's backswing instead. It was a knee-jerk, gut reaction. Svetty was... everything. He wasn't about to let her walk away because she misunderstood Jude's intentions. He threw the door open and lunged again to try to catch the blonde's hand.
The problem with his reaching out... with wanting and trying to capture something, was that in his singular focus, Jude was not keeping reign of his power. He reached. His power reached. He wanted. It wanted. Even if he didn't get skin contact, his power hit home.
Dial that coffee boost to a double shot.
"Svetlana." He pulled his sunglasses off. "You are ze love of my life." Was he ruining their bright and shiny future? Were their twin children disappearing even now? How could he have dared to gamble their well being?

Rebecca held her tongue. She had done more than enough damage trying to intervene on Jude's behalf, so now she would stay back and watch as Jude reminded Svety that she was the only one for him. If she was Svety, the line probably would have worked on her, but Rebecca was a softy for any sweet line thrown in her direction. The fuming girlfriend might not be so forgiving, especially with Jude snagging her hand and touching apparently being one of Svety's issues.
So Rebecca stood with bated breath for the Russian's response.
There was the sound of someone being hit by the door behind her, but she did not turn around. It was a matter of public safety now, getting as far away from the redhead as possible. Once she was outside the aura, the people were safe, at least.
Someone grabbed her hand.
>>"Svetlana."
She turned and looked at Jude. Into his eyes. At the same time, more caffeine kicked in. He was copying her. So much about public safety.
>>"You are ze love of my life."
She looked up at him, tugging at her hand mildly. Damn the French.
"You have one minute to explain dat." she said, nodding towards the gelato shop. She trusted him to know what she meant.
*italics are spoken in Russian* Thanks to Siren for the sig and avi!
Bless him, he actually looked embarrassed. "Explaining iz not what I would do if zis is my last minute withs you."
Jude tugged Svetty's hand harder than she had been trying to tug away. He was gentle, yet firm. She wasn't going to get away so easily. He pulled her hand until he had to draw it up over his shoulder in order to keep tugging. In the end, they were practically slow dancing in the street. His lips. Her ear.
"I was foolish." As much as he wanted to plant a kiss on his jaw line, he refrained from making an over-caffeinated scene. "I should only work to make you blush."

Rebecca took a step out of the shop, but immediately she felt her energy picking up. With the two of them together now, somehow she was feeling empowered even being several feet away.
Looking at the couple, they were adorable and he was keeping her as close as he could. Rebecca actually let out an audible, "Aww!" Jude was cheesy, but he was also sweet. Even she felt mad at herself for being a tease even though she knew she was innocent.
Rebecca could not do much but root for her new friend silently. Forgive him, Svety![/color]
