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.

You can play as a mutant, human, or Adapted— one of the rare humans who nullify mutant powers by their very existence. Goodies, baddies, and neutrals are all welcome.

"Yes, really...." Ty replied dryly. This guy was such a jackass, but he had to put up with him. This precog was dangling Ty's life from a string, in front of Rupert's face, and for that, Ty had to do whatever he had to do. He wasn't one for being played with.
But when they reached the apartment, and Ty opened the door and stepped inside, he would find the game had just begun. The redhead could see a shadow of someone sitting in the kitchen area, waiting for them, it seemed.
"Sonofa..." Ty whispered, frozen at what he saw once he was close enough to the table. The figure in the chair was dead. Fastened to the dining chair in such a way that made him seem seated, waiting. In his hand was a bottle, wrapped in a piece of paper. Gathering himself, Ty stepped forward, taking the bottle from the corpse's hand.
"Mother--....What did I tell you. Aspirin..." Ty said bitterly as he unwrapped the note.
The good news, gentlemen, is that you made it right on time. However, we've still got a long road ahead. Don't worry. I knew you two would need more meds, so I went through the trouble so you won't have to.[/color]
As before, Ty removed his glove, using his power on the note. But this time, the vision wasn't like the others. It was still clear, and he could see Simon in the background. Smiling this time, shaking his head. On the note next to the page...So predictable...Try again, Fishy-boy~
Grumbling, Ty used his power on the aspirin.
~There we go. You do learn! Now...you are nearing the end of this little game, and are alive, for now. Not far from here is a certain abandoned storefront--I'm pretty sure you know the one. That is where the real fun begins. Oh? You don't want to? I'm sure your sister Chloe--or should I say Butterfly--would find it in her best interest if you went.
By the way. Don't you know popping aspirin all the time like that is bad for you?~
Ty's face turned beet red, eyes lowering into a glare as he put the gloves back on. He threw the aspirin bottle on the floor and stormed out, ignoring the headache and brushing past Rupert.
"Follow me. We're nabbing this sonofabitch...and we're doing it today..." he growled, shoving the crumpled note into his pocket.

Okay, so Ty's gunna slip in just because he catches wind of this thing and thinks it'll be a hoot to do something stupid in attempt to ruin it.
Also, I talked to Penguin, and Paige and Butterfly could go as potential dates, only to...very rudely, more than likely, inform him later that they're with each other. xD; I think that wraps up the how and the who on my end~

Ty was by no means being a wimp. He shrugged at Noel, returning her look with one that clearly said he was merely being a gentleman, letting the lady go first, and she had the easier of the two. Besides, when they got done, he was considering paying for hers too, in secret, of course. She didn't have to know every time he did something nice for her, right? Granted, she probably would.
When Drake took Noel back, he went with them, just so it would be quicker. And just in case she needed help remembering or something. Okay he didn't really know why. He just wanted to go with, maybe it was just him being protective. Maybe it was because he was growing fond of her company. Who knew?
Oh well, it really didn't matter, did it? He sat in an available seat while he waited, idly tugging at his gloves and looking around as he patiently waited his turn.

Butterfly and Paige, was mostly to clarify that they're taken. xP Though I may need to direct Penguin to this because I find it funny that two of Talon's potential dates would be taken--by each other.
Now, the fact that Tses is in makes me want Ty to crash even more. Just the idea of having so many people who either hate him or that he hates in the same room. The only thing I'm missing, though, is a motive. Once I can think of that...well one certain Fish will be set to crash your little party. (Ty isn't a huge fan of Talon, but I don't think that's motive enough lol)
This looks very interesting. All I really have to add to this is that if Butterfly ends up involved, I don't have to talk to Penguin to know she'll be bringing Paige.
Also...if Rupert crashes the party, I somehow want Ty in on it because let's face it, nothing spells chaos and hilarity like an accidental reunion between Ty and Rupert. You know on top of everything else xD

"Alone I can live with," Ty answered as they walked. "Yeah...I've sorta learned to hope for the best, but prepare for the worst. That way, if everything turns to s***, I'm not only ready for it, I'm prepared to handle it, for the most part." He shrugged, being one who was used to being let down by people.
Maybe that was his problem. He needed to be more reliant on himself instead of others. If others needed him instead of the other way around, maybe he wouldn't get hurt so bad all the time...
The boy walked beside Roach as instructed, taking in what the other mutant had to say. He didn't know what exactly his...let's say mentor...wanted from him, but he was willing to help Ty, even if it was for some price. "I read you loud and clear. The hardest army to fight is the one that isn't in uniform. Especially in times like these. It strikes me as more of a target and less of a way to identify each other. Not to mention I have a certain gift that allows me to see after the fact. Then again...I'd rather play with the stacked deck than buck against it." Ty nodded at the rest of Roach's instructions.
For some reason, Ty knew this ordeal would be helpful to him too.

"A thief trying to steal from a former thief...talk about irony," Ty said with a dry chuckle, leaning back and sighing a bit. Man this was awkward as hell.
"I can pretty much get around from anywhere in the city. I don't wanna be anymore trouble to ya." The redhead sat and chewed on her last statement. It actually made perfect sense to him. "Huh...maybe you're right. And today has taught me that blowing off steam is not the best reason to try and steal.."

Ty looked over at Noel, and wanted more than anything to tell them both he'd take care of it. But looking at her face and body language...he didn't think she'd agree to it. So, he let the two of them work it out, practically biting his tongue in half from doing what he so badly wanted.
Well, at least it resolved really well. The redhead brushed his hair aside with his hand. "Well, since everything's settled now, I guess only one matter remains," Ty said, looking at Noel. "You wanna go first?"

Ty noticed quickly where he and his fellow mental mutant were different. But Ty understood that this was technically her first encounter with a visible mutant--that she could remember, anyway. Ty on the other hand, had interacted with enough where the mere sight of, let's say, a dragon, didn't bother him too awful much.
He gave a nod. "Yeah, more like the dog on the wall, there. As far as pose, I'm not sure. I was thinking maybe teeth bared or about to eat it. My friend here had suggested a cover job, but...I don't know the little guy's kinda grown on me." The ginger chuckled. "As far as why I have a hummingbird in the first place, I sorta ticked off an ink manipulator." Giving a smile and a small shrug, he looked to Noel as she explained what she wanted. This was kind of cool, getting tattoos together. One might go as far as to say it was almost oddly 'romantic,' in its own weird, awesome way.

Okay, so I know alot of you have probably seen me babbling about this at some point or another, but the time is now among us. Pen and I will be going on a cruise, and as such, I will not be online for awhile. Saturday evening, the 25, and will return on Sunday, June 2nd. I will likely be back to posting then, or Monday. Tuesday at the latest.
I will miss each and every one of you, but if you party about the Fish's absence, save me a piece of cake.

"It's not like we're serial killers or anything," he whispered. "And I damn sure ain't getting a tattoo or a tally mark put on me for every person I've wasted. We just do what we have to to survive. I'm not a big fan of the whole 'roll over and die' thing."
Ty silenced as they spoke with the girl behind the counter, and he looked when Noel tapped him on the shoulder. "Yes. Exactly like that, but with a fish," he answered with a smile.
Aaand then there was the yelling. That girl screamed for Drake with an intensity that made Ty favor the headaches he got from using his power on antiques...However...he didn't nearly expect who this 'Drake' would be. Sure, he knew it was a mutant-friendly joint, likely run by a mutant. In these times, you hear about stuff like that.
Ty'd imagined a large muscular dude, maybe covered in tattoos, and of course a mutant. What he didn't expect was 'Drake' to be a chick. Not that it mattered, she still struck him as the best option.
"Hey. I was wanting a tattoo to sort of...spruce up one I already have." He pulled his shirt up, showing the pink hummingbird on his collar. "Think you can put a skeletal fish right there next to it? And I think she was wanting something, too," he added.

Ty shot her a funny look, one that looked almost like a kid who just sucked on a lemon. "Noel, is there anything about me that's hardcore? Besides...I like the fish idea." He shrugged as he walked. "I thought it was neat, actually..." he murmured softly, hands stuffed in his pants pocket as he walked outside. He'd passed a certain tattoo parlor quite a bit in his comings and goings, and was sure this was where he wanted to go.
"Yeah, they're permanent. And getting your name sounds like a good idea. Lots of people do that."
Ty held the door to the parlor open for Noel and stepped inside, walking up to the girl at the front. "Hey, you got anyone back there that can give me a skeletal fish? Like right here?" He patted the left side of his chest again. And make its jaws bared at the hummingbird already there?"

Ty nodded. "Yeah, thinking's a good start," he replied, stretching as he got his shirt on and his hair straight--ish. Though the young man had to admit he was surprised at her willingness to go with him and get a tattoo.
"Well, an old nickname of mine is Fish, so...I was actually thinking of something like a skeletal fish with his jaws bared. Right here." Ty patted the left side of his chest. "As unmanly as it is...I have to admit the little guy's sorta growing on me..." Ty flashed a small smile.

Okay, now Ty saw her predicament. He scratched his chin, rubbing the little bit of stubble that was there. "What I want out of you? That's easy," he replied. "All I really ask is that you remain that person I could count on. A friend. Just someone close. Where we're there for each other when need be. And you..."
He thought a moment. "I guess you find something you like. Try different stuff, I reckon. Like getting to know a complete stranger, it seems you're going to have to get to know yourself." He brushed his hair aside, standing up and walking over to her--or more specifically, the shirt lying next to her.
"I think I may get another tattoo. To sorta go with yet draw attention from the hummingbird..." he muttered as he pulled the black shirt with the lime green fish on it over his head.

Ty chuckled. "Maybe not, but I know people," he joked, winking lightly. He nodded as she spoke, then he blinked. That name....that word. Why did it sound so familiar? Why did it ring like a bell?
Ty's eyes brightened as he got it. But then they brought back pained memories. Holmes. Holmes Project....Could she have been involved with that one mission with Tses...? He sighed, shaking away the thoughts and memories. No use clinging to what couldn't be clung to anymore, after all. Throwing his cup in the trash, he turned and made his way back to the counter, tipping the barista as he then turned for the exit.
