Sorry pal. I've started it. I'm just going to start making my dinner then I'll crack on with some more of it

<Snipped quote by Sep>

Oh no worries at all, that was just my natural British inclination to avoid genuine heartfelt compliments.

“You-” Maxima panted, beads of sweat dotting her brow as her bosom heaved to regain her best, “You have bested me. I am yours, claim your prize.” She moaned, spreading her legs as Clark released the woman and moved back, picking up Maxima’s discarded cloak and tossing it over her.

Happy Fortress of Solitude Friday to those who celebrate.

I can't figure out how to deprogram Kal-El, so I wrote smut instead!

Fixed it for ya pal.

<Snipped quote by mattmanganon>

Not sure what that is but it sounds like a compliment

<Snipped quote by Ezekiel>

Ew gross you're British.

Collab over.

<Snipped quote by Sep>

Just you wait until I have to start making up my own Southern Idioms.

@Taka should he not technically be, the First X-Man?

<Snipped quote by Sep>

Yesh. Does it say First X-Men somewhere? I thought I fixed it.

<Snipped quote by Ezekiel>

I'm about halfway through this post, I'll get it finished tomorrow no doubt. I'll send it to you first just so you can check you're happy with it.

I bring to you the first X-Man, Cyclops. I know I said that I'd make Winter Soldier but, I caught the Cyclops bug once I saw all the mutants. I think this will be a better choice for me and I have a lot of ideas. Also Emma x Scott, amirite?

Please tell me what you think. I worked quite hard on it and I respect any criticism. Thank you for reading.

Sidenote: Ghost Rider post coming soon.

Scott, and his brothers, are a receptacle for energy from another dimension, known as the Punch Dimension, their bodies constantly drawing in that energy and empowering them. Drawing in this energy is done subconsciously, and Scott's body is pushed to the peak of human limitations in almost every aspect. ◼ OPTIC BLAST All three Summers' brothers have the ability to absorb and project the inter-dimensional energy of the Punch Dimension, this energy does not abide by the laws put forth by Einstein and Newton, and is practically infinite. Each brother has a unique mutation involving the Punch Dimension, Alex is able to absorb and convert the energy into plasma, and Gabriel is able to absorb and project any energy, while Scott's eyes have become apertures to release the concussive energy as beams. This is a weakness due to a traumatic brain injury when he was a child, giving Scott the inability to control his powers from any other part of his body like his brothers. His optic blasts are ruby in color, and produce no heat. Over the years, he has learned to gain control over his optic blasts in many ways such as controlling the trajectory in midair, causing the beams to drill through targets, and even allowing it to cut through materials. Lastly Scott is protected from the energy that he emits due to have a psionic shield around his body, making it so that just closing his eyes is enough to halt the release of energy. ◼ SPATIAL AWARENESS Scott has an uncanny sense of trigonometry, able to perceive objects in his surrounding, and the angles between them. With a glance, he can mathematically breakdown the geometry equations in seconds, this including the geometry of objects. This uncanny sense helps Cyclops demonstrate the ability to ricochet and/or reflect his optic blasts. He once ricocheted his optic blast ten times to hit several targets. - T O O L (S) ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ◼ RUBY QUARTZ GLASSES/VISOR Ever since he was a kid, Scott has had to wear glasses made out of ruby quartz. The ruby is attuned to the energies of the Punch Dimension, halting any release of energy from his eyes. This extends to the hard polymer visor that, with the press of a button, controls the width of his beams for wide shots, or shrink his beams for precision blasts. As a back up, Scott has ruby contacts but, they notably irritate his eyes and make him incapable of using his powers. ◼ X-Men Suit Scott keeps his suit he wore as an X-Men, creating superficially by Charles Xavier as the first X-Suit. The suit is a kevlar weave, and protects him from a multitude of things, including impacts, fire, and electrical shocks. ◼ D.A.N.G.E.R Phone The D.A.N.G.E.R. is basically a mini-computer in Scott's hands, controlled by the AI known as D.A.N.G.E.R that Hank Mccoy created for the School of the Gifted. It serves mini functions and still has the X-Men brand recognition despite Scott changing the name. Thanks to the AI, the phone holds many functions beyond just being a cellular device. - N O T A B L E S K I L L S & T A L E N T S N O T A B L E S K I L L S & T A L E N T S _________________________________________________________ [+] - S K I L L (S) ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ◼ MARTIAL ARTS EXPERT Scott is a practitioner of several martial arts, having trained extensively in karate, judo, aikido, krav maga and taekwondo. He can hold his own with the best of them. ◼ MULTILINGUAL Due to Charles Xavier using telepathy, Scott knows several languages including Spanish, Mandarin, French, Russian, Japanese, Korean, Dutch, and Portuguese. ◼ LEADERSHIP From leading the X-Men for over a decade, Scott has become an exceptional leader. He a vast understanding of how situations will develop, and what best way to use his teams' abilities, this includes himself. A tactician at heart, he can plan out and plan for nearly any situation, his mind treating these instances as a ever-revolving puzzle to solve. ◼ TELEPATHIC RESISTANCE After many years training under Charles Xavier, Scott has a strong resistance to telepathy. He can fight back against the toughest of telepaths, giving him a fighting chance against those looking to interfere with his mind. This is not a perfect defense but, means telepaths must be careful wandering inside Scott's mind. - T A L E N T (S) ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ◼ PILOT Scott is a natural pilot, like his father before him, and this talent is only enhanced by his enhanced sense of geometry. - A L L I E S & A N T A G O N I S T S A L L I E S & A N T A G O N I S T S _________________________________________________________ [+] - A L L I E S ▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔▔ ◼ Hank Mccoy - Science teacher/White House Liaison, Best friend ◼ Jean Grey - Teacher, Former lover ◼ Hope "Summers" - Student, Leader of the Cyclops Fanclub ◼ Ororo Munroe - Headmistress, Friend ◼ Alexander Summers -Co-Owner of Summers Foundation, Little Brother ◼ Piotr Rasputin - P.E.

T H E S T O R Y S O F A R... T H E S T O R Y S O F A R... ________________________________________________________________________________________ For the longest time, Scott could barely remember his life before meeting Charles Xavier, the man who would become his father. There was always fleeting moments, the most prominent memory of him escaping a lab with a blonde haired woman, and the image of a red diamond. Darkness would swirl in his mind, before his first real memory would come about, waking up in a bed of the home of Charles Xavier. Despite the head trauma he would undergo, the man made it his priority to help take care of Scott, and Scott would come to appreciate him. It would take a few days before Scott's mutant powers would return, nearly destroying the forest outside of Charles' manor, and scaring him beyond belief. A ten year old boy cowering in the dark, before Charles would find him, returning to him the glasses that he had with him when he was found. A relic of a life he did not know, Scott could question just where his family was and what happened. For now, he would learn under Xavier, creating a bond of father and son. As the years went by, Charles and Scott would add more mutants to the manor. First would be a young girl by the name of Jean Grey, a powerful telepath and Scott's first girlfriend. Next would be Hank Mccoy, a brilliant scientist who just so happened to be a beast man with blue fur, but also he would become Scott's brother. Ororo Munroe would find her way to the school, the queen of the weather and one of the smartest women in the room at all times. Then the one known as Piotr Rasputin would enter the school, a man with a skin of steel and a heart of gold. They would create a bond unlike any other, a bond that would see them become the hope of mutants everywhere. A trip to Manhattan with Charles would see the group looking to celebrate Scott's 17th birthday. It was supposed to be a fun trip, for them all to celebrate their friend and hang out at the arcade/pizza joint, but things would soon devolve into violence. A commotion would escalate as several men began to attack a business, one man spewing flames from his hands. Instead of just sitting there, Scott would rally his friends to intervene, feeling a sense of duty. Despite this being their first act of heroism, they would end up stopping the group, showcasing what Charles Xavier had been teaching them. This act would be the first step in Scott's journey as a leader, and the first in the tale of the X-Men. Many had not known this but, Scott and Charles had been training to one day achieve the purpose of creating a peaceful world. It was neither's idea to create a team, but the moment seemed to fall into their lap. With Scott as his first X-Men, he was able to help the others train their abilities within the Danger Room, a training area tailored to help mutants learn control. They were a tight knit team and covered each other's backs. The X-Men would go on to become a recognized team by the world at large, their heroics garnering them fame and popularity for the Charles Xavier's School for the Gifted. This fame would have its ups and downs. Many young mutants would find hope through the team, joining the school, while other times their pasts would come back to haunt them. Scott would learn this first hand when he would end up finally meeting his brothers, Alexander and Gabriel. His brothers would attack him, nearly killing him, a situation that pushed Scott to the brink mentally. Eventually Alex would come around, helping his older brother against the youngest, who proved he was force to be reckoned with. They couldn't reason with him, and the conflict that spawned a week of Scott chasing them alone would with Gabriel being blasted into the sea, one word escaping his lips. Sinister. Scott was never able to figure out what Gabriel meant and Alex couldn't remember anything before his mind was restored. For now, Scott was happy to have his little brother back in his life, his mind restoring just a bit of itself at the sight of Alex. Alex would enroll in the school, taking the name of Havok, a codename like the other X-Men. The team of five would become a team of six, their mission only becoming infinitely more dangerous as the Brotherhood came to fruition. Magneto would soon become their greatest rival, a man that Scott held respect for, even calling him uncle when he was a kid, but now he had to keep Magneto from destroying everything that the X-Men had built through their acts of heroism. Truly one of the most significant moments of Scott's life would be the disappearance of Charles Xavier. He never knew why and how it happened. The most Scott was privy to was a punch from the one known as Juggernaut that knocked him out cold, leaving the man in a coma for a month. Nursed back to health by his friends, he would come to learn that Charles had vanished. No one knew how, or at-least they weren't telling. This nearly broke Scott as he had lost the man he had known as his father, and for the team, it tore them apart as well. The guilt ran heavy through them, especially Scott, causing him to eventually step down as leader. First Gabriel and now Charles, he felt as if he had failed them both. This rift would also see the end of Jean and Scott's relationship, and Scott would leave the school. A year has passed since Scott left, leaving Ororo Munroe in charge of the school. Despite his guilt, Scott has taken on a teaching role within the school, making sure every mutant knows the answer to two plus two. Using the fortune that Charles left behind, Scott was able to start up the Summers Foundation alongside his brother Havok, an organization built to help young mutants, and humans, find their place in their world, similar to something like the NAACP, even paying for mutants to go to college if they need it. Scott has been a force for good, adding to his popularity with the masses, but even he can see just how the world seems to regress day by day on the mutant, and his heart bares a single question. Maybe its time for the first X-men to return? P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S ) P L O T ( S ) & G O A L ( S ) ________________________________________________________________________________________ I'm going to say something controversial. Scott Summers is the greatest and most important X-Man in Marvel history. Up until AvX and X-Men vs Inhumans, Cyclops was always considered a joke despite being one of the best parts of several X-Men's best stories, notably Age of Apocalypse, AvX, and Schism. In the last decade, Scott has garnered his flowers and finally getting his own solo comic. Why does this matter? Because no one ever roleplays Scott. Never explores who he is. I want to be that person to give Scott that rp representation that he deserves. Also I wanted to do something different. Writing for Ghost Rider is writing for a violent character that mostly acts alone. So with the interest that mutants are getting, I felt Cyclops would be a nice 180, giving me a character that interacts with the world and quite popular. I can write for Cyclops and I know I'll do a DAMN good job at it. My Cyclops is a star in this world. A mutant that many can look up to. Not just the X-men leader or revolutionary, but a man who has earned his fame and admirers, giving back to a world that would rather he not exist. I will be collaborating with any and all other mutants, to create the level of stories befitting the X-Men. Taking away Jean as his love interest, I think makes for a compelling Scott who's main focus is his own life and not pining for Jean's love. I hope you enjoy what I bring to the table.

Only consideration I'd like to throw down is Jean being back was already referenced IC.

If we are going with a non-Jean world I would like to ear mark her for a New X-men style return to the X-men.

(If I do get accepted)

<Snipped quote by Ezekiel>

I wasn't saying that Jean wasn't around. She's in his allies. She's just not a love interest for Scott.
