asgardeventide | BACKDATED TO YESTERDAY ➔ 1ST MUTATION ➔ VIDEO

Better late than never, I'd say.

[ Charles has been trying to adjust to life in Asgard. He was pulled out of his world, at the worst possible time only to arrive to the fact - he was void of his telepathy. Adjusting is a work in progress. But he's treating this thing like it was a presentation or a lecture, so he's doing his best to look adequate. Like it's not getting to him. The smile he passes is an easy one. ]

I suppose, it's common courtesy to introduce oneself over the network. My name is Charles Xavier. Before arriving in Asgard, I was a professor of Genetics. I had written a thesis on genetic advancements, mutations. People with gifts. Gifts that were very much so similar to the 'powers' bestowed to us by these gods. Gifts with untapped potential to be the catalyst for a better world.

In Asgard, we are a put at a point - where everyone is put on equal footing. Everyone is in possession of these gifts and we're capable of having peaceful cohabitation. But it does beg the question, before Asgard - was anyone in possession of gifts?

[ FILTERED | ERIK LENSHERR ; RAVEN DARKHOLME ]

Are you two here as well? Your names showed up on the directory.

I'm sorry. That was terribly rude of me. It's just - you have the same face as an old friend.

You two are acquainted?

Relatively. [ You think you know a guy, then you switch bodies with him and he shaves your muttonchops. ] You'll find that we're not too fond of one another.

[ moran that was the most hilarious thing ever, love holmes :D :]

I know Erik can be quite the difficult character, but he's not without his charms.

[ just gonna assume this is erik's fault. ]

It's fascinating though, you look just like him.

I'm aware.

[ No one invited your opinion into this conversation Holmes omg

and it was totally Erik's fault. ]

But he's the one who isn't terribly fond of me, chum. I assure you, he won't so much as mention me to you.

[ just butting into meta tags making ur life difficult moran. ]

[ he'll give a cool laugh. it's strange because erik's probably the closest thing he'll have to a best friend - a brother, but there's still a lot of uncharted ground. ]

He's not a forgiving man. [ the quip is supposed to come off as charming, but it comes off as rather distant. ]

[ 2spooky now get lost ]

Neither am I. But I've done so little to him.

[ Lies and slander. Existing may, in fact, be something unforgivable when it's Moran. ]

Then. It does beg the question of what did he do to you?

Ask him. [ IT'S EMBARRASSING AND HE IS RATHER CROSS ABOUT IT. ]

It must have been quite grave.

It'll break your heart, old chap.

It was an act of charity to Asgard is what it was, Charles. Nothing more.

[because he's such a giving person.]

I don't imagine Asgard cared.

Asgard cared a great deal, my good man. You would have been proud.

[yeah...totally mocking you rn. jsyk.]

Well then, chum, I must be hailed as a hero here in the city given what I've relieved the other citizens of.

[ YOUR MAROON OUTFIT. ]

And yet, you're not.

[STILL ANGRY]

Was never aiming for heroism, was I?

[ G O O D. ]

With that facial hair, you can't be aiming for much.

[SO PETTY. SO QUICKLY.]

Are you upset with your inability to grow anything similar?

[ five. year. olds. ]

I'm upset that someone who shares similar features to my own has absolutely no sense or taste.

[not even.]

I wouldn't say the look is as tawdry as you're describing it to be, but it's certainly unusual.

You weren't forced to live in his body, Charles. It's a different experience entirely.

[ he offers a laugh. ]

I'm certain having a bit of facial hair is a crime against you.

Yes, I feel the same way, my good man. You clearly have absolutely no sense or taste.

If it's an act of charity, Erik. I'm not sure why this man is objecting.

I'm not quite sure either.
