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.

She grinned, enjoying the wink and the squeeze of her hand. They’d have plenty of time to enjoy each other’s kisses later that night. There was no doubt about that. Granted, it was a tempting offer…
In either case, the first band began to take stage. They were doing a typical introduction that concerts had before they played their first song. She smiled warmly as he put his arm around her, and she leaned against him, letting her fingers run over his hand.
“Are you ready to rock?! Let’s ROCKKKK.” Zelda was unprepared for the screaming that began – almost like a frenzy. She nearly jumped but adjusted. The first couple bands were pretty good, although Zelda couldn’t really stand the noise the crowd made. So bad for ears. The music was good and she was enjoying being in Jay's embrace, so she couldn't really complain.

Zelda liked Jay. She felt like he liked her too. They connected, they liked each other, and they were definitely compatible in bed. They had all the hallmarks of potential budding relationship. Maybe. It was only their 2nd date but Zelda couldn’t hope something more would come out of it.
She smiled , “I wouldn’t either,” she said sincerely, glad. It was a crazy coincidence but it was one she wouldn’t want to change.
She nodded, feeling her fingers intertwine with his. It was weird holding someone’s hand again. It was a great feeling, especially with it being, well, him. He gave her all sorts of emotions, some she didn’t think she couldn’t even feel really.
Once they were seated, she perked a brow as he thanked her. She smiled, “Wouldn’t miss it for the world,” she let her hand stay in his, not really wanting to let go. “Plus, we can go all teenager and just make out through it all.” She winked playfully.

Zelda occasionally looked around to see if she could spot Jay until her phone made a small noise pretty soon after she had texted him. He was almost here – so he wasn’t about to stand her up. That was a weight off her shoulders. She never knew – sometimes they were serious, sometimes they weren’t. And she’d like this to be, well, serious.
She gave him a big grin when she saw him and she laid her hand on his and stood up, wrapping her arms around his neck to give him a hug. She gave him a soft kiss on his cheek before stepping back and giving him a glance over. He looked good – he was wearing sneakers, but he seemed like that kind of guy. She liked it either way.
She smiled and shrugged, “Luck, actually. I mean, we literally bumped into each other because of a bass and because of a cup of hot chocolate.” She giggled playfully, “You look great too. Very handsome,” she murmured. She checked her phone for the time, “It looks like it’s going to start soon – do you want to start heading in?”

It was the concert night. It had only been, what? A week or so since she and Jay had met, but they seemed to be hitting it off pretty well. They seemed to have a connection most people could only dream of having. Especially the first day that met. The memories of that night brought back all sorts of passionate feelings. And tonight might just be a replay of that night, except they were going to spend it mostly together. The 2nd date (although was the first day technically a date or not? Zelda wasn't entirely sure) seemed to be looking like a good night so far. The weather, while cold, wasn't unbearable cold.
Zelda had driven her Jeep and parked in a nearby parking garage as she walked towards the entrance of the concert hall. It was a classical concert - rock bands and the such from the past were going to be playing. Zelda herself wasn't too familiar with the individuals artists or bands, but she enjoyed the music good enough to handle a night out with one of her increasingly favorite person. Plus, she needed to be more involved in concerts, plays and such - after all, she needed to be able to relate to kids now. What better way than through music? Zelda kicked herself in the head thinking about work on a night like this, but old habits die hard.
She wasn't entirely sure what to wear, but her motto was always dress to impress. She decided to wear a tight, red dress with cream colored high heels. She wore a long, grey jacket over her to bear through the cold as she spent some time outside. They had agreed to meet at the entrance to the concert hall and Zelda, being Zelda, was early as usual - by about 15 minutes. She sat on a bench outside the building, mainly doing some last minute checks of her appearance before Jay would arrive.
She decided to send him a quick text to let him know:
Hey! I'm right outside, let me know when you're close

Zelda listened with interest as he explained how he was lucky than some other mutants. She nodded a couple times. “I gotta say… Turning into a dog and only having to study it for a bit definitely sounds better than literally all of that.” She grinned, “I had a friend in college who had antlers and looked kinda of like a deer, except with 2 legs. Killed in the registration camps, it can be extremely rough for some mutations.”
She twirled in the chair as he walked by, secretly enjoying the kiss on the cheek. She crossed her legs as she watched him place the notebook on the living room table. She nodded slowly as he mentioned sleeping over. She grinned and walked over to him, letting her fingers trace up his chest as let her eyes followed them up to his eyes. She leaned towards him, letting her lips dance across his, “I don’t think I mind.” She gave him a wink.

Zelda kind of felt like a teenager again – scheming about crazy ideas that actually could turn into crazy plans that might actually work fairly well. It was a refreshing feeling – after all, being a boring adult person was kinda lame. It was a nice change of page.
She nodded slowly, “Well, that makes sense. It’s never that easy, right?” She chuckled quietly. As a doctor, she kind of wished she could video tape him changing. It would be remarkable to see how his body handles the transformation. It didn’t cause him pain, which was good, but what did it look like during the switch? Either way, she shook the idea out of her head. That wasn’t her job anymore, after all.
She gave him a teasing grin as their eyes locked. Half of her wanted to just crawl onto the table and pounce him. Would be kinda too soon for climbing furniture though, right? It was nice just looking at him, anyways.

She smiled mischievously towards him. She liked the way he thought too, even if it was more unethical. Maybe they would go through with or maybe not, but it was always fun to conspire. Plus, maybe dog racing would be fun.
She nodded, “Good to know, good to know.” She wished she knew dog breeders and the such, but she really had no idea about them. She didn’t really get involved in that kind of stuff. “I mean, it might be slightly unethical – but why wouldn’t you use your powers for a profession? A mutation that lets you heal people – you’ll probably become a doctor. What’s so wrong with it in this case?” She shrugged.
“I wish I knew of some places, but… Nope. How does it work exactly? You just have to see them?”
She let her eyes lock onto his, since their faces were facing each other and both leaning on the table. She had a small grin on her face as she let her eyes wander around his face.

Zelda felt that he was interested. That made her feel slightly more confident (and less like a fool for giving him her number.) Maybe this would be more than just a one time hook up. She leaned back a little bit, content and happy about the possibilities.
She bit her lip as she thought about it, “Well, I’m sure there is places outside of the city that we can go to. We can act like we’re going to buy one from someone or something.” She shrugged, “Might work in that kind of situation.” She thought carefully how to say the next part, “If they are sick or something, you’re still fine, right?” If the dog was too sick to race, it might make it safer for her and him. If the dog can't race, then no one would ever know. “Oh yeah, I’m sure. We’ll just have to be careful.” She winked.
She shrugged, “I mean, more nights like this wouldn’t be a bad bargain for me.” She grinned as she used her hands to hold her head up, her elbows resting on the counter top.

She nodded understandingly, “Yeah, all that bull.” She sighed a little and finished off her coffee, “Life’s a b*tch.” She confirmed. It was half way in response to him and half way just her saying it. She nodded as she waited for him to return.
She grinned as she saw the notebook with tons of songs and lyrics on several pages. She flipped through until she found a blank page and ripped a piece of it off. She took the pen and wrote down her number and her name, “So you can call me next time you have a gig. Or you know, whenever you want.” She gave him a small, teasing grin. There it was - she had showed her interest in wanting to continue this. It would be in his court, now.
She thought for a moment, “You’d probably just need a human to sponsor you or whatever they do. Like, the trainers? I guess.” She seemed lost in thought for a moment before grinning widely, “I can get you registered, I’ll be the human trainer stuff. You get all the money but I’ll do the human part stuff.”

She cracked up over that. At least he was honest about it. He did make good coffee, so that was definitely a plus. Granted, she didn’t drink coffee that much. The doctor knowledge made her mostly a water drinker with some occasional splurges.
She took a sip of her coffee as she listened to him explain his situation – he was a backup, the guy people call. She gave him a sympathetic smile, “I hope they do - but don’t feel too hard on yourself. It can take a while. Sometimes.” She felt bad for the guy. Life was a b*tch. She had a shadow government arm from across the rip terrorize her for a bit. Life sucked.
She laughed, “I mean, I don’t see what’s wrong with that, honestly.” She paused, thinking for a moment, “Do you have a paper and a pen?”

She chuckled, “Alright, alright… I’ll take your word for it.” She grinned. He was funny, too, which helped out. They seemed to have a pretty good connection. Maybe this wouldn’t be the last time they’d talk, hook up, or date, or whatever. She’d just have to remember to give him her phone number before they left.
She shook her head, “Nah, I’m not too hungry right now. Although, I am positive it’s at least competing for restaurant level goodness.” She’d probably be in a little bit, but for now, she was good. Plus, the mention of coffee gave her a weird craving for it. She leaned onto the counter top and watched as he poured the coffee for him and her. She blew on it a little and took a sip, “Mmm. It’s good.”
She crossed her legs as she sipped some more of the coffee, “So, when’s your next gig? I’ll have to be sure to show up.”

She grinned as he scrunched his nose up. He was a cute guy, for sure. No complaints about their passion a little while ago, either.
She laughed softly, “See? No worries about getting the down deposit taken away, anything.” She shook her head a little bit, a small smile on her face.
She looked towards him – initially at his eyes, but as his eyes wander, she let hers wander as well. She nodded, “I guess so. But don’t have an existential crisis on me, okay?” She gave him a wink as he stood. “Oh, sure, that’ll be great, actually.”
She stood up after him, stretching her body a little bit. For a moment, she debated if should put some clothes back on. She decided not yet, though. She’d simply follow him into the kitchen area.

She nodded, “Yeah, that is understandable. The energy required to use one’s mutation can occasionally be pretty extensive.” She laughed, “Especially after strenuous activity.”
She watched as he followed her to her end of the couch and she returned his kiss softly, letting one of her hands mess with his hair a little.
That was quite a paradox – one she didn’t have the answer too, really. She clearly gave it a few seconds to think over before she shrugged, “Well, they do say no dogs allowed and you kinda can become one, so… Technically speaking…” She tried to make a straight face but the grin that escaped her lips showed she was clearly joking.
“Yeah, I mean, I guess you’re technically not a pet. But everyone has animals in their apartments when they’re not suppose too, anyways.” It wasn’t like it was that hard to sneak a dog or cat into your apartment, at least if you’re cautious about it (and that the animal isn’t loud.)

She chuckled as she petted the dog shifter. She wasn’t sure if there was instinctual things that might be initiated when he was in dog form or if the tail wagging was simply a conditioned reaction to pretending to be a dog for a part of his life.
She watched him shift back and, as a doctor, quickly noticed the dizziness. It was probably the shifting, she thought to herself. In either case, it was in her instincts to make sure he was okay, “You good?”
She nodded in confirmation, “Right?” It wasn’t that big of a deal, but it amused Zelda.
She giggled and gave him a teasing grin back, “It would definitely be weird if I liked the dog form more, eh?” She let her eyes check him out one more time before crawling on the couch and over to him. She then let her lips kiss on his, “I wouldn’t be able to do that if you were a dog, so I’m pretty happy about this form of yours.” She let her eyes wander to his more… Southern area, too. She gave him a teasing, playful grin and returned to her side of the couch.

Moving to the bed probably would have helped them out, at least in terms of space. Couches weren’t the most comfortable when two people were laying there, without clothes. It looks like they were clear of being accused of being too loud, too. This time, anyways.
She stirred a little as she felt his lips touch her cheek and she gave him a smile and sat up. The shift was so quick – she wasn’t even able to see anything of the actual shift. That meant it was painless, which was good for him. However, now their was a golden retriever in front of her. She reached a hand over and began to rub his head, and behind his ears. “Kinda weird knowing where my hand was at just a little while ago,” she joked. She did notice his eyes – wow.
“You’re a pretty pup,” she scratched on the back of his neck. “I still prefer you as, you know, human. A lot more attractive that way.” She gave him a playful grin.
