Mutants
[Locked to mutants, both born and made through the pulse]

I have been waiting and watching, and I believe it is time to speak.

My name is Erik Lehnsherr, and I am a mutant. I have the ability to manipulate and control metal. I understand there were some people hit by a "pulse" that caused them to develop new abilities. Someone caused it, and knowing humans, they will be looking for you. Perhaps they've already found you, or tried to experiment on you. I've seen this before, and they will not stop.

Brothers and sisters, we don't need a cure, and there isn't one, nor should they be. We are capable of many great things, things that ordinary people cannot fathom. And they will hate and fear you for it.

I had a team before. We found and protected mutants, and prepared for the coming war, because there is one. It is only a matter of time. Join me if you wish to be a part of real action, not hiding and hoping for the best.

	[After a lot of consideration.] There are those in other doors that will target us as well. No where is safe. (Reply to this) (Thread)

	It's always that way. The only way to be safe is to be ready, experienced, and ready to fight back by any means. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Isn't fighting against them just going to make them hate us more? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They'll hate us regardless. Survival means fighting back. Once upon a time I attempted to think that way, and I helped save lives. Their response was to try to murder me and my people for no reason other than fear. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	There were people in another door that... attacked me. For what I gained during the pulse. I've been trying to figure out what I can do since then. Hiding... hiding doesn't work, does it? They'll just continue to come after us. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Be aware there are actively people who will want to dissect you like a rodent, if they do get their hands on you. I saw it for myself recently. Several mutants I knew died on their table in my world. I have no doubt it is the exact same here, because there will always be those people, looking to exploit, looking to "cure."

	I heard about those things after the pulse happened. I went to another door to avoid putting myself in that position, but I've returned recently. I've been trying to figure out where to go next. What to do next. It's difficult when... it's hard to be conspicuous. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You have a visible mutation then. I know these powers seem terrifying at first, but you will get satisfaction from them in time. I have no plans to hide. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can hide it with some effort, but it's... not easy. [...] I keep hoping things will get better. I have to admit that after the incident in Gotham, I was quite ready to cut them off to get some relief. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	For now it is a burden, but it won't always be that way, Liam. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	[...] Is there a safe place in the city? I've been in a hotel, and I'm... feeling vulnerable. I was thinking of finding another door, again, but I'm tired of moving. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Locked: Erik L/Liam R wearethefuture 2014-07-07 03:45 pm UTC (link)
	I've secured one. I will have to meet you before I tell you where, since it will need to be secret. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Locked: Erik L/Liam R author 2014-07-07 03:46 pm UTC (link)
	I'm more than willing to meet. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Locked: Erik L/Liam R wearethefuture 2014-07-07 04:00 pm UTC (link)
	You are in the city? Meet me at the Hudson River Park. There is an apple statue, it looks like this. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Locked: Erik L/Liam R author 2014-07-07 04:01 pm UTC (link)
	I am. When would you like to meet? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Locked: Erik L/Liam R wearethefuture 2014-07-07 04:03 pm UTC (link)
	I can be there in an hour. I'm tall, dark haired, I'll have a hat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Locked: Erik L/Liam R author 2014-07-07 04:04 pm UTC (link)
	I'll find you when I get there. [...] Thank you. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Re: Locked: Erik L/Liam R wearethefuture 2014-07-07 04:09 pm UTC (link)
	We are kin now, in a manner of speaking. Any time. I will see you soon. (Reply to this) (Parent)
