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!

He blinked, studying her curiously for a second; after that second, a frown marred his brow, a tiny line resuming its place there between each of them. "So what are you thinking you're going to do?"

He probably did need a bit of training, to be quite frank. She wasn't entirely wrong. He just wasn't a mutant.

Emma had two options. Play it cool and risk losing​ his interest, or be real and be vulnerable.

She hated to be vulnerable, but it played well with men. "I don't know." She put her head in her hand. "I'm going to train people with abilities like yours, hopefully."

[parrishing]

The 'real' part was more what he was interested in, not the 'vulnerable'. He could do without vulnerabilities, himself. They didn't help much.

"...yeah? Like mine?"

[wellbredbitch]

Emma was trying hard to purge herself of all vulnerability. It was a work in progress.

"Yeah." Emma nodded and finished her martini. "You didn't look like you were in control, to be honest. You could be so much more than you are, darling. I have a desire to bring out the best in people.

[parrishing]

Wasn't it always? One day, they'd both get what they wanted.

"What are you thinking you're going to be able to do with me?" He asked. He had to. It wasn't like he was opposed to having a teacher, after all; it was just that his was dead. Persephone hadn't been with him nearly long enough, and now she was gone, and he had no idea what he was doing most of the time. He just gave himself up to it all.

[wellbredbitch]

Emma smirked. "Nothing tonight. But once we're settled I'd love to learn a little more about your abilities and what you need help doing in order to control them." She had no idea how to help, but she was certain she could.

[parrishing]

He nodded slowly, taking that in and rolling it around his mind like a wine on his tongue. It was a little nervewracking, opening up to people about what he had done to himself and what the results were; the people who were closest to him, they already knew. There was never that moment of discussion. It was like Blue finding out about his father.

"Yeah," Adam finally conceded. "We can talk about it some time."
