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.

"I'm not either, but he pays okay. Besides, it's well worth telling that guy when he's wrong." Though Ty wouldn't admit it, the redhead hated being wrong just as much. "What I meant was, can you imagine me trying to cover up the fact that I'm trying to solve my own crime? Talk about irony."
He chuckled softly, having to admit he loved how those little things that annoyed them were now what they joked back and forth about. Heh, maybe they'd make it, after all. This made Ty smile more as they entered the mall. He looked around, leading her to the theater.
Though he was starting to realize how much he loved the fact that these green gloves left more of his hand exposed.

"I don't cower! I like puppies. It's just a select few. Chihuahuas are annoying little rats, and poodles just suck. Maybe I just don't have the heart to hurt a dog. Steal from one though? No problem at all. Outsteal one? Definitely." He stuck his tongue out again.
"No, I love you. But you know what they say, right? When they can put their differences aside, the best partners are competitive rivals~" He winked as the mall neared view. "Maybe we should schedule another day and just pit our skills against one another. Then maybe...Iunno pull off something together? You know as long as Harlan doesn't call me for the case, heh."

"Yeah, I hear ya," Ty replied with a slight chuckle. Then, he raised an eyebrow at her competitiveness. "You forget a shark is a kind of fish~" Ty replied sweetly. "And barracudas. Along with lots of other vicious little beasts. And you know I'm good. Even if lap-dogs set me back a little." He stuck his tongue out at her.
He laughed at her reaction to his happy valentine's, but he noticed the smile, which he returned sweetly as they walked. Reaching out, his green gloved hand grabbed her hand. "Would an I love you work better?" he asked sincerely.

Ty froze when he realized she heard his mutterings. Oh well...it had to come out some time, right?
"Well...I've been known to acquire an income by....less than legal means, yeah. But I don't have alot of money, and as of a few days ago, I'm trying to reform. You know, get a decent job, try to be a good citizen...that sorta thing."
He sighed lightly, almost embarrassed. "Okay, so you know my secret...we still cool?"

"Yeah, we can catch the next showing," Ty replied as he put the remaining gloves into his pockets and led her out. He noticed the competitive edge in her voice, and it made him smirk, eyes seeming to glimmer a little as well.
"Hey, I'll let you have B&E," he said quietly once they were out of earshot from anyone who might be nearby. "But when it comes to pickpocketing, I like to think I'm on top of the food chain~" His face retained this smug little grin. "Happy Valentine's, by the way," he replied solemnly with a wink.

He wasn't buying it. Great. Though the young man listened, he wasn't fully into the conversation now. This job was turning into one great big piece of hell. But how was he supposed to know Tses would be in on a heist? From what they'd talked about, Tses didn't rob banks...
"How are we supposed to do that?" he snapped, face turning red with frustration and embarrassment. "How was I supposed to know my girlfriend was involved in this? Jesus...regardles I'm in this **** deep now..." He let out a disgruntled sigh, his mind racing, not even bothering to notice how much he let slip.
Ty became even more aggravated when Harlan called his office, and let it known that he DID catch Ty's slip up. Even down to the spelling, somehow...
"Well...I gave you my word. The least I can do is follow through with it," he mumbled. But as soon as all is said and done...no promises.

Ty shook his head. "Can't say that I have. It's been one thing after another. Cops, mutant haters...chaos followed by chaos. Toss in a volatile relationship and...there's my life. Even if the latter's sorta calming down. For now." He chuckled slightly, then continued listening.
"Yeah. I used to love the woods too. It's been so long since I've actually been in them though. Though I guess moving from the country to the city does that to ya." He gave a slight nod, smiling as he relaxed a little more.

Ty's face brightened, as if what Amber said had enlightened him. "That's it! The older the object, the worse the headache. If I go out and get a bunch of simple stuff like...Iunno marbles or something, I could use those for training. Then maybe get something else, and use those to focus not activating my powers on."
He stood to his feet, quite happy at what they came up with. Then he looked at her. "Although something tells me this is going to look alot easier on paper than when I actually try to go through with it. Heh...like that time I tried to jack that ATM machine...." He shuddered; sometimes the memories from the things he'd acquired still haunted him.

"Yeah, that sounds like a good idea," Ty replied with a smile. "Oh, they shouldn't be coming back. Besides, if they do, we'll be long gone from here."
Ty chuckled at her joke as he rummaged through the electronics. "Man, these guys really knew their stuff. I'm almost jealous of their skills..." Ty murmured, digging through all of the goodies. He'd definitely have to come back here later, to stock his room at Sanctuary, and Tses's apartment.

Ty smiled as he looked at her, imagining her wearing the earrings. Yep, perfect match. He loved how today was turning out now, even if it did start a little rough. It was times like this that really made this relationship worthwhile to him. It made every bad or scary moment they had to endure far worth it.
"Actually I think that's it," he replied, heading to checkout, but not before swiftly taking the earrings from her grasp. When he made it to the checkout counter, Ty paid for both his gloves, and her earrings. Pocketing the receipt, he handed her her earrings and put the left green glove on his left hand.
"Wanna hit the theater now, or is there something else you wanna do?"

Ty smiled, continuing to go through the rack of gloves, though not quite sure what he was looking for right now. He was happy with the green ones, but it was good to have a backup pair or two. With a smile, he grabbed a pair of black ones, lined with metal studs, and tried it on. Another perfect fit.
He chuckled when Tses showed him the earrings. "They'd look alot better on you than me," he teased, then got more sincere and serious. "They've practically got your name on 'em. Definitely you," he said softly.

Ty's entire face scrunched up when she held up the pink gloves. "Hell no," was his reply, sticking his tongue out at her. When she held out the green ones, he smiled, reaching out and running his fingers along the faux leather fabric.
"Awww...you remembered my favorite color~" he half sang, sort of hinting, but mostly doing it as a joke. He held onto them, slipping off the bandage and trying the left one on. He let his fingers clench into a fist, and he smiled at how well they fit. "Tses, you know me too well," he commented.
"Well, for me, it was out of necessity more than out of a fashion statement. But...if I'm going to wear things like that, I may as well look good in 'em, no?"

Ty always enjoyed walking with Tses. It was sweet, quiet, and usually peaceful. As long as they didn't have to run, but even then it was exciting. "Well, you see things in me that I don't," he replied softly. "I know how that is. I find myself thinking about the future more often, too. Used to be the farthest into the future I thought was after I got a haul..."
Ty wasn't about to tell her what thoughts on the future that he had nowadays. He was sure she might kill him for it. Besides, he didn't have the guts to tell her how far into the future he imagined, or what things were like for them. Now that he thought about it this way, it made his face turn a light shade of pink.
"Yeah. I'll always be around," Ty replied, smiling dreamily.
Before he knew it, they'd reached a clothing store. He led Tses inside, his ears instantly hit by a song he recognized playing over the speakers.
So do I remind you of Someone you never met A lonely silhouette And do I remind you of Somewhere you wanna be So far out of reach Ohhh I wish you’d open up for me Cause I wanna know you Amaryllis
Ty smiled as the song bounced around in his head now. He headed straight for the fingerless gloves, picking through and looking for something different.

"It's a good little walk," Ty answered, "But you can't miss it."
Ty grinned at her next question, shrugging lightly. Only one way to find out." With that, he turned, opening the bathroom door and stepping inside. "Man...I shoulda gone through this before..."
Inside were a few flat-screen TV's, some radios, a few iPods, car radios, any electronic one could imagine. Whoever had used this for a lair had quite the stash.

Ty froze for a second at all of Harlan's questions. He was in deep now, and thanks to his little slip-up, Tses was now in danger. His mind was racing, thinking over everything he saw, digging for a name. But he got nothing, because they didn't exchange names. Not to his knowledge, anyway...
"Uh...I said Beth, not Tses," he replied, trying to cover his trail at least a little. This was way out of his league...
Ty deliberately ignored the rest of the string of questions from the detective. Oh, he was sure his job was in jeopardy now. His job, his girlfriend, and his own ass. When Harlan finished talking, it was then that Ty spoke up, brushing his hair out of his face.
"You didn't ask for any names," he said calmly. "And this is my first investigation. In fact, that's all I didn't mention. Besides, when you get a thousand scenes rushing before your eyes in a minute, some things are hard to pick up on. Beth, and...Jacob." The man gave a slight shrug. He knew a Jacob, but it was the only name he could think of. Maybe Harlan wouldn't catch on that he was lying...
