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.

With his hand still wrapped around Andrew's waist, Tasean lead his friend to his apartment building. The building was nice, but definitely older, not some modern marvel but a classic beauty. As they came to the door, the doorman smiled and gave Tasean a knowing smile and wink.
"Mr. Walker" he said, tipping his hat in greeting before giving Andrew the once over and Tasean another smile.
"Mr. Freeman" Tasean said by way of greeting, blushing underneath his dark skin. The doorman had witness many of Tasean's conquest, and had called a cab on more than one occasion for Tasean's visitors to get home. He could only hoped that the doorman would not say anything to Andrew about the young social worker's active social life. Tasean didn't want Andrew to think he was only another notch in the belt. Tasean felt different about Andrew than the other guys he had dealt with. At least he knew the doorman would make sure Tasean had no surprise guest this evening.
"Welcome to Chateau La'Walker" Tasean said as he ushered Andrew towards the buildings elevator. He grinned once more at Andrew as he pushed the button to bring the elevator down. He was seriously hoping to keep his hands off of the taller man, since he knew there were camera's in the elevator.
Normally under a social workers salary Tasean wouldn't be able to afford a place like this, but his parents had left him everything. And between the life insurance money, and the house that was being rented out back in North Carolina, Tasean could live comfortably, in the city.

Tasean gave a little cough and grinned sheepishly at Lydia.
"Well we aren't actually dating. Not yet at least. That is I guess we are talking...I think" Tasean said, becoming more crestfallen as he tried to explain the situation.
He truly didn't truly know where he and Andrew stood, hence the surprise visit. Tasean wanted to talk to Andrew, to see exactly what he should be expecting. Something more than purely physical was what Tasean was looking for, but he couldn't be sure if Andrew was looking for the same.
"I guess we are just friends" he finally admitted, this time with no infliction.
Tasean looked at Lydia, and finally his manners caught up with him. If he could blush, he would've as he realized that he had kept this young lady standing outside in the heat, while he sat in the car nice and cool.
"I'm sorry." he apologized sincerely "Do you need a ride somewhere? Andrew isn't here, so I really don't have anything to do."

Tasean's breath was a little accelerated as Andrew lead him back on the path. While Tasean was no stranger to being with men, he had all but given up on every finding someone who filled more that physical needs, so Andrew was more than he bargained for. There was a growing bond their, formed from their mutual situation of being mutants, and also the mob attack. One simply did not go through something like that without forming some type of attachment to the people you went through it with. Andrew was also someone Tasean felt he could talk to, a shoulder to cry own and a ear to listen. And Andrew was kind with a big heart, that he wore on his sleeve, or on his arm in the form of little black rings, depending on how you looked at it. Bonus points the guy was not bad looking at all, and a good kisser. Tasean didn't know where this thing between them would end up, but he was going to ride this stallion, figuratively and maybe literally, until he fell off.
Tasean wrapped his arm around Andrew's waist, trying to match the taller man's stride as he guided him along the path towards the Apartment, which came into view just around a bend.
"There is home sweet home" Tasean said, grinning like the cheshire cat

Tasean smirked slightly at the young woman. He had caught her off guard, which was completely alright with him. She said she was only an acquaintance, which also suited Tasean just fine. He wanted to a chance to see exactly what his and Andrew's relationship would develop into, without any outside interference.
"You still haven't told me your name" Tasean said, finally lowering his eyebrows and not sounding so defensive.
If she was just an acquaintance it meant he couldn't pick her brain about Andrew. There was a lot he still didn't know, and although Tasean was quite confident in himself and all his skills, he wouldn't mind some pointers on sweeping Andrew off his feet.Still. she seemed nice enough, and she might know something useful, like where he possibly might be right now. If not, no bust, at least someone was able to see his brand new car today.

Tasean's eyebrows raised as the young brown haired girl spoke to him. He gave a little sigh of disappointment when she informed him that Andrew wasn't in. He really wanted to spend some more time with Andrew. Tasean's eyebrows lifted even further when he heard her question.
He gave the young lady an appraising once over with his eyes, trying to figure who she was. She was young, pretty with some very nice eyes. Of Andrew's friends Tasean had only met Gina, though Jorge and Lori both knew Andrew as well. Tasean didn't know this girl, though he wasn't getting a vibe that she was competition, he still kept his guard up. He was about to tell her that he did mind her asking because it was none of her business, but then decided to do a little investigating of his own. If she did turn out to be competition, he wanted her to know that she would not be vying for Andrew's attentions alone.
"My name is Tasean. Andrew and I are friends," he said, stressing the last word slightly, indicating the friendship was not simply platonic. "And you are?" he asked.

Tasean pulled up to the gates of Mansion in his new silver Camry. Thanks to a little shuffling of the insurance money from the mob attack, Tasean had been able to afford to buy the new car. He wanted to surprise Andrew with it, and go out for a drive, and get some lunch. He rolled down the window and nervously pushed the button to call the security guard. Tasean had only ever been here once before, and he wasn't even sure if Andrew was here, or if he even should be calling on him unannounced.
"Yes" the guard voiced though the speaker.
"Um...hello. I'm Tasean....Tasean Walker, here to see Andrew please." Tasean replied, hoping that Andrew was here and that the guard would let him in. He wondered for a brief moment if he should let the guard know that he was a mutant and then decided against it. They might think he needed a place to stay, when what he really wanted was to take their resident promising keeping mutant out on a date.

Tasean nodded, glad to hear that the young woman was getting along fine. It would probably be sometime before she was completely healed from her ordeal, but as long as she wasn't dwelling in some dark depression, her healing would come.
"I'm glad that she is doing o.k." Tasean said as the search results were finally beginning to pop up on the computer screen. "If she ever needs anything, or anyone to talk to, my door is open."
Tasean's eyes widened in surprise at the number of files that populated the screen. He himself had never heard of the church, but apparently Agnes was not their only victim. Tasean did not know if all of the cases were mutant related, but the Church of the Everlasting Eye of God had definitely been busy.
"Well Jorge," he said as he set the computer to print out all of the files. "I don't know if this is exactly what you are looking for, but I have found some cases for you where your crazy church group is involved. I can't be sure if all the victims are mutants, but with a little digging I'm sure I can find out."

Tasean eyes widened in surprise, a happy surprise as Andrew guided him by the waste toward the tree. He looked up at his friends, his eyes gleaming when Andrew spoke and then began to lean forward. Tasean made a noise somewhere between a laugh and a growl as he arched his back off the tree and leaned into the kiss. Already slightly warm from his slight jog, Tasean's body temperature began to rise rapidly. Almost of his own accord, his hand wrapped around Andrews waist, bringing the taller man into closer contact.
His eyes closed, his lips parting to allow his tongue to dart and taste Andrew's lips. The hairs on his arms stood up as goose bumps raised across his body. The heat of the kiss and energy was so much that Tasean was quite sure, if the tree was not at his back, his knees would probably have given out beneath him. It had been sometime since Tasean had kissed a man that he was attracted too on more than a physical level, and he was thoroughly enjoying.

Tasean stopped dead in his tracks at that brief but heated touch. His eyebrows lifted as the blushing Andrew sped away further up the path. Tasean looked at the taller mans physique with an appraising eye, smiling a knowing smile to himself.
"So the guy's got claws hm?" Tasean thought to himself, commenting on Andrew's sudden spark of boldness. "Then let's play a little cat and mouse?
He looked at the rapidly retreating promise keeper, shaking his head. Andrew would have to move a lot faster if he wanted to out pace the track star, even if Tasean wasn't in running shoes. Tasean kicked his sandals up and grabbed them mid air before starting at a long stride jog to catch up with Andrew.
When he caught up with his friend, he slowed down, coming directly behind him and grabbing Andrew by the waste. He ran his hands around Andrew's midsection, circling from the small of his back around to his abs, going under the shirt to caress the skin for a brief moment before he moved himself to Andrews side. There he leaned up to place a light kiss on Andrew's neck just below the ear, and whispered "You're it" before he gave the blushing Kentuckian a friendly pat and took of running down the path towards his apartment building. This was definitely turning out to be very interesting.

Tasean gave a little smile as he listened to Jorge. As long as Tasean helped at least one mutant get into a better situation, or at least get out of a bad one he counted this venture a success.
"Yes well, each one teach on and so one" Tasean said quoting something he had read in a book, not knowing in Jorge would recognize the reference or not. "The Everlasting Eye of God hm? Sounds like some crazy kind of movie or video game if you ask me." Tasean said as he typed the name of the religious organization into his database.
The search icon popped up, which was a good sign, since if there was nothing it would immediately say no files matched the criteria. As he waited he looked to Jorge. "So how is Agnes getting along now? Everything ok, or at least better than it was for her?" he asked sincerely. He may not know her personally, but he was definitely now concerned for he well being, he wouldn't be a good social worker if he wasn't.

Tasean continued to walk towards his apartment, his hands clasped behind his back leisurely. He didn't plan on saying too much to Andrew, he knew when someone needed to vent. Andrew had given him that opportunity when the first met, and Tasean planned on repaying the favor. He simply nodded his head, casually guiding his friend towards his home.
Tasean himself had been having questions thoughts about his feelings toward humans, but it seemed that Andrew's turmoil went deeper. Tasean had very few dealings with other mutants until recently, and had never really told anyone else about his feelings. Things were a bit different for Andrew, so he could understand the mixed thoughts he was having right now. As long as Andrew didn't become some mutant vigilante bent on the destruction or slavery of all humans, Tasean was quite alright.

"Yeah Andrew. He showed me around the Mansion once, and was actually there the day that the mob attacked the Agency." Tasean said, smiling brightly. He continued to count himself lucky that Andrew was his friend.
Tasean waved his hand dismissively at Jorge's apology about adding to the work load. "It is not bother at all" he said sincerely. "This is what I am here for, it's what I started this Agency for. I didn't really know to much about mutants until I came up here to the city, from North Carolina." Tasean spoke as he sat down at his desk and indicate for Jorge to take a seat across from him.
"I mean, I knew I had abilities, but it was a long time before I knew to call myself a mutant." Tasean admitted. He was quite sure that by now it was common knowledge that the founder of the Mutant Social Services Agency was a mutant himself. "My parents didn't know, I never told them, but they accepted me being gay, I'm sure they would've accepted my being a mutant. But when I came up here, I was introduced to how some mutants are treated, especially those that can't blend in with society. So I started this Agency, specifically for people like Agnes, so it's no bother at all. It's my duty, and I'm proud to do it. I only hope I can be of some help."
With that Tasean began to tap away at his keyboard, bringing up old case files on the computer, and quickly looking them over, looking for any similarities with Agnes' case.

Tasean gave Andrew a surprised look. He definitely was not expecting that answer from Andrew, but he was going to take full advantage of it. Maybe not full advantage tonight, but he was definitely going to see how many bases he could get steal before he struck out.
"Well then sir Andrew, let us go then shall we?" Tasean said playfully smiling before nodding towards the direction of his apartment. "So other than this Rhythm girl, what else was on your mind? If that's not being too nosy."
Tasean looked, and decided to take the long way home, instead of the short cut through the park. If Andrew needed time to clear his head, he was more than willing to give him that time. Not only because a good friend would do that, but because he may need Andrew to be able to focus on other things, once they got to the apartment.

Tasean's face hardened into a look of disgust as he listened to Jorge explain the case while he looked at pictures of the girl. He hated when children were abused, especially for things that weren't their fault. Tasean was definitely one of the people he supported harsher punishments for child abusers.
"I've heard of something like this before, ran across a case or two, though I can't say they were mutant kids." Tasean said as he closed the file and handed it back to Jorge. "I've heard of certain church groups that try to exorcise the so called demon of homosexuality out of kids. They can be pretty nasty, but I've never seen anything like this."
Tasean shuddered at the thought of what that girl had endured. Her parents were idiots, and Tasean was now resolved to do whatever was in his power to make sure they were properly punished, them and whatever religious fanatic group they were with.
Finally the elevator stopped and the doors opened to the Mutant Social Services Agency office. This time Tasean owned the entire floor, though it looked rather empty. Tasean still didn't have anyone working with him, though his number of clientele was increasing daily. The media coverage of the mob attack had done a little good for him.
"I can look somethings up in the system, and make some phone calls for you Jorge. I know some people who would be willing to help. I even know someone at the school your Agnes is at now. Andrew is a friend of mine." Tasean said as he ushered Jorge into his private office.

Tasean stretched again, nodding as he stood up. Andrew had paid his bill and set the time, so Tasean needed to go rearrange somethings to make sure he could be there on time. He was definitely not a morning person, but for this he could be, at least this one time.
"Eight's fine with me. Maybe the three of us can do a brunch or something afterwards, have a little chat hmm?" he asked, as innocently as possible, though he intended that chat to be more like a very serious talk.
Tasean brushed some lint from his shirt, thinking about Andrew's earlier reaction to his antics he grinned, deciding to tease his friend just a little more before they parted ways for the day.
"So how did you get over here Andrew? You know, my place isn't too far, if you want to come over, and then I could take you to the Mansion. Of course you would have to convince me to take you home...but then again, do too good a job at convincing, and I might not want to let you leave." he said, that wicked gleam returning to his eyes.
Despite the fact that he was very concerned about Andrew's latest promise, he was still very interested in the man. Tall, cute and originally southern, it was like Andrew was made to order. A southern gentlemen in the big bad north was a rare find, one that Tasean intended to keep for himself. He just needed to do a little more digging, to see if there were any other contenders out there.
