[b][h3]The Themes[/h3][i] (on top of the ongoing [i]X-MEN[/i] theme of Civil Rights)[/i][/b] are: [list][*]Heroes & Villains Are Human [i](we'll see Xavier brought down, and Magneto in a new light)[/i] [*]Fatherhood [*]Choices/Self-Determination [/list] [b]Additional Note[/b]: [color=#FF4433]Jean Grey may become a part of this story near the end. [/color] During the intense "final battle" between Xavier, his son and Cyclops [i]-where nobody comes out undamaged in some way-[/i] Jean could get a premonition of this and come to the location [i]ahead of[/i], or in time to see, the end of the battle. Or, Jean could get a since via her and Cyclops' psychic connection that something major is/has happened to him over there, arriving sometime [i]after[/i] the battle when Cyclops is in the facility's Medical Bay. [i]In either case[/i] I have an idea for a spin-off story where it's decided it's not safe for Cyclops to recover in their present location (the high level/close proximity of anti-mutant groups; concerns of another flare up from Xavier's son; lack of security) - Xavier stays behind with his son (with whom he's also carefully preoccupied), while Jean and Cyclops try to return home. Only it's not as simple as walking back to the aircraft that brought them here - things get complex. [b][i]As aforementioned, I don't mind RPing in chunks: [color=#FF4433]if you think you'd like to give Jean Grey a whirl[/color] I'm happy to jump ahead and play that with you (over PM) ahead of having anyone to RP the main story with. [u]Please see the second point of the On Story section in "Quick Notes" above[/u].[/i][/b]
