Possible Scenarios 01. A New Arrival: Hello, New Person! You seem to have found yourself on a sidewalk in the City of Sin with nothing but the clothes on your back and a stomach chruning feeling of being displaced. Thankfully, the streets are full of people - Watch out that you don't get mugged! 02. Demonic Presences: You were just minding your own business, weren't you? But that's always when bad things seem to happen, and the City of Sin isn't really that friendly. Whatever bar or street you're hanging out in suddenly go dim, filling the area with an unnerving feeling as the shadows on the walls jump out into reality. We suggest you phone a friend for help, or maybe try running? 03. Party Hard: You've been invited to a massive, elegant party at the Tower that spills out its doors in welcome, by someone who calls themselves the Emperor. Obviously, that's weird, but maybe you can get some free drinks and food out of it! This place might not be so bad. 04. Prominence: The City of Sin influences it's population on a weekly basis. Too bad you came right smack dab in the middle of a heavy Prominence. Lust, Greed, Gluttony, Envy, Wrath, Sloth, or Pride. Choose your choice of sin and be wicked. 05. Trouble: Not everyone is sunshine and roses here. Some people are violent and cruel, raised in the sludge of a sinful city. And they like to pick on people they think can't fight back. Are you that person? Or are you the Hero who can't stand to watch? Worse yet, could you be the person doing the instigating? Villian. 06. Carnival: The City has carnivals or festivals now and then; you're lucky to catch one! With its open booths filled with cork gun games and funnel cakes, how can someone not have any fun! Go win your darling a stuffed animal, or meet someone new on the spinning cup ride. You might even see someone you know being talked into sitting in the Dunk Tank. 07. Wild Card: Choose your own adventure in the game's setting!

"Oh, don't worry. I'll get myself situated soon enough. Hit the ground running, that's the key. Have I missed much?"

She was woefully behind on all the gossip in the city.

Winging it on the timing, cause i lose track

[aces_and_eights]

"There is something going on. Some might have got a lil froggy with the Magistrates. Don't know too much more than that."

He gave her a bit of a shrug.

"It has actually been off my radar."

Which was true for several reasons.

[wellbredbitch]

"Hmmm, I'll have to snoop around a little bit. See what I can dig up." Being a telepath made one perpetually nosy. Beside, if there was chaos she might be able to profit from it somehow.

"You've been well, I hope."

[aces_and_eights]

"Just be careful, from what I've seen there is always a backlash of some sort." Not that is was particularly worried for her. Usually it was a directed thing from what he had seen, if that was actually the case.

He gave her a shrug. "Oh I've been alright. Tryin' to get settled a lil bit more, figuring out what has changed."

[wellbredbitch]

Emma shrugged. She wasn't even here when it happened, what trouble could she really get into? "I'll be alright. I can't help but be nosy. It's coded into my genes." She gave him a wry smile.

It was good that he was settling in okay. She cared about him, in a sort of generalized way. He was one of her students, eventually, so she wanted good things for him. "Well, if there's any way I can help let me know."

[aces_and_eights]

He gave he a half smirk and rolled his eyes a bit. "Yea, yea, yea, blame the genes it has nothin' at all to do with the woman who has them."

Ace shoved his fingers into the front pockets of his jeans and gave Emma a bit of a nod. "I will, would be handy to have a teep around. That is if you're willin'. Prolly, just here and there and nothin' dangerous."

Nope, not dangerous though their level of danger is a bit higher than the standard human's so there is that. He would look a bit bemused when he asked her that question though. His brain still hadn't wrapped fully around the circumstances the two of them found themselves within. But she was Emma. Was she his(a turn a phrase he knowingly used, cause who after all could call Emma his or hers?)? He didn't know.

What he did know that in some way it really didn't matter in his mind. Even if her home was literally words aways from his, he would still help her. Some debts don't get paid off that easily.

[wellbredbitch]

Emma wasn't terribly bothered by danger, if the reward was worthwhile. The company of her fellow mutant was a pretty compelling offer. She nodded, giving him a small smile. "Alright, call on me when you need me. But first buy me a cab to my place. My legs are going to freeze off and then what good will I be?"

[aces_and_eights]

"Deal, though legs aren't everything." He stepped out on the curb and raised a hand and whistled. Somehow he managed to keep one hand lightly on her shoulder as he waited, not long kinda hard to ignore that whistle, for a cab to rush into the open spot.

He opened the rear door and gestured her in. "Don't worry about the coat Emma." Then to the driver he was a bit more firm. "Take her home, no grief." Then he slid the man what would likely be fare and half. "And your chariot awaits."

While his expression was slightly bemused, there was a roil in his brain still. Even then it was still good to see her again.
