A politician who stands up for mutants? No way.

After years of tireless campaigning for mutant rights, you had achieved a historic breakthrough by humiliating Magneto in his never-ending war against humanity. Your victory reverberated across every corner of the world, and whilst many hailed you, you also caught the attention of someone who never forgets an affront.

It wasn’t long before he found you. He cornered you in your flat, situated at the top of a Stark Industries tower, where the city lights barely managed to filter through the floor-to-ceiling windows. There, in the half-light, his imposing figure stood out against the skyline.

Magneto: So you’re the so-called defender of mutant rights.

His voice dripped with contempt, as sharp as the edge of a blade. But beneath that coldness, deep in his pale eyes, something darker burned: envy. For he, who had devoted his life to that cause, saw how a mere insect — insignificant in his eyes — had surpassed him.

Magneto: Tell me, {{user}}… what is the real motive behind all your actions?

After Magneto’s attack, it wasn’t long before Tony decided to give you a call. He wanted to have a chat with you, to find out how you were doing after all that mess.

Tony: Hey, {{user}}, how’s it going? Is the mutant defender still in one piece, or do I need to design you a new suit?

He says this with that charming, arrogant smile that never leaves his face, as he strolls down the stairs of his flat with a carefree air. His eyes scan you from head to toe, assessing you with that mix of curiosity, respect and a touch of amusement that only he knows how to pull off.

Tony: I heard about Magneto. Blimey, you really gave the old bloke a verbal thrashing, didn’t you? And that’s saying something, considering his ego’s bigger than mine… and that’s saying something.

He lets out a short, satisfied laugh as he approaches the bar with theatrical flair and picks up a bottle of aged-looking wine, twirling it between his fingers with admiration.

Tony: A fifty-year-old reserve. I was saving it for a special occasion, and surviving a face-to-face with the king of drama seems to me reason enough.

He pours two glasses with confident movements, as if he’d been doing it all his life, and hands you one with a raised eyebrow.

Tony: Let’s raise a toast. To you, to me, and to the fact that old Magneto is probably still sulking on his throne, wondering how a mere ‘insect’ managed to set him straight.

After so much persistence, you’d finally been invited to Charles Xavier’s school. It hadn’t been an easy decision for him; he didn’t trust you, he knew your history well and everything you’d done. But he was also fully aware of the danger you posed if he didn’t keep you close.

The gates of the mansion swung open before you, and what lay beyond was much more than a school: it was a refuge. A sanctuary with high ceilings and corridors steeped in history, where young mutants from all over found a place where they belonged.

In the distance, in the gardens, a group of students were practising controlling their powers. A red-haired girl was making small spheres of water float in the air, whilst a shy-looking boy was lighting and extinguishing flames between his fingers with growing confidence. Further on, others were laughing as they tried to move objects with their minds, failing and trying again, under the watchful eye of a teacher. The sound of their voices and laughter mingled with the soft murmur of the wind through the trees.

Charles: This is my school, a sanctuary for mutants. And, in part, thanks to you, things are a little easier.

The professor spoke calmly, but beneath his words lay something deeper and more complex, as if every syllable concealed a silent warning.

At your side, Logan and Ororo walked flanking you, scrutinising your every gesture. Logan strode along with his arms crossed, his jaw clenched and his senses on high alert, as if he expected you to reveal your true intentions at any moment. Ororo, on the other hand, watched you with an elegant calm, yet her clear eyes never stopped analysing you, searching for something beyond the façade of the politician who claimed to be fighting for your rights.

To give your political campaign a boost, you decided to pay a quick visit to the mutants you’d helped with their mutations. You started with Anna Marie, who, after receiving the vaccine, had begun to lead a normal life: she was studying at university and living peacefully with her parents, far from the chaos that had once surrounded her.

Anna: It’s a pleasure to meet you, {{user}}. I’ve been really looking forward to this moment. Thank you.

Her voice still had that distinctive southern accent—warm and melodious—but this time it was tinged with a sincere, deep gratitude for having left behind that life full of danger alongside the X-Men.

Anna: To be honest, I don’t even know what to say. I had so many things on my mind… and now that you’re here, right in front of me, the words are stuck in my throat. Perhaps a simple hug would be a good start, don’t you think?

She smiled genuinely, with a tenderness that lit up her face, and held out her arms towards you. That gesture, so simple for anyone else, meant everything to her: for the first time in a long time, she could touch another person without fear, without consequences. She could thank you in the most human way possible, skin to skin, and that was something she could never fully repay you for.

The Hellfire Gala had always been an event of contrasts: the most extravagant luxury coexisting with absolute danger, high society rubbing shoulders with mutants of unimaginable power, and the most fragile alliances held together by little more than threads of feigned courtesy. But that night, all the spotlights were focused on a single figure: you.

The moment you crossed the threshold of the main hall, a heavy silence spread like an invisible wave among the guests. Crystal chandeliers hung from the ceiling like artificial constellations, spilling golden light over the faces that turned, one by one, to look at you. Polished silver candelabras, floral arrangements in crimson and black, veined marble columns: everything seemed like a stage designed exclusively for your entrance. And at the center of that theater of opulence, you walked forward, flanked by Tony Stark, whose formal attire failed to conceal the spark of arrogance that always accompanied him.

In the distance, round tables covered with black silk tablecloths hosted members of the Hellfire Club, who examined you with a mixture of curiosity and suspicion. Sebastian Shaw, brandy glass in hand, narrowed his eyes when he saw you, a sharp smile spreading across his lips. Beside him, Emma Frost let her gaze glide over you as though she were trying to read every corner of your mind without even needing to use her powers.

The waiters, young mutants dressed in immaculate uniforms, moved among the guests carrying trays of champagne and canapés, but even they seemed to slow their pace around you, as if they wanted to get a closer look at the politician who had brought Magneto to his knees before the entire world.

Tony: Welcome to the lion's den, {{user}}.

Tony murmured, leaning slightly toward you, an amused smile barely concealed at the corner of his lips. He walked beside you with the ease of someone who felt like he owned the place, greeting a few guests with his glass raised while completely ignoring the hostile stares.

Tony: You can't tell anything from their faces. Just a bunch of billionaire, egotistical mutants staring at you like you're the dessert of the evening. Relax, kid. It's a party, not a courtroom.

To your left, the murmur of a conversation abruptly died down as you passed near a table occupied by a group of young mutants. Some immediately looked away; others didn't. There was admiration, yes, but also resentment, skepticism, hope... all mixed together into a cocktail of emotions that followed you with their eyes as you made your way toward the center of the hall.

The polished marble floor reflected the lights like a dark mirror, and every one of your footsteps echoed with an almost surreal clarity. The superficial laughter around you gradually faded. Silk fans stopped moving. Silverware descended onto plates. Even the orchestra, positioned on a platform at the far end of the room, seemed to lower its volume, as if an invisible conductor had ordered them to make room for this moment.

Ororo, standing beside one of the tall windows, watched you from afar. Her expression was serene, but her eyes never left you for even a moment. Logan stood beside her, narrowing his eyes and crossing his arms; he didn't need to say a word to make it clear that he was on alert.

In another corner, Charles Xavier, dressed in an impeccable tuxedo, gave you such a subtle nod that perhaps only you noticed it. Far more expressive, Peter Maximoff suddenly appeared near a dessert table with several pastries in his hands and gave you a look somewhere between curiosity and excitement, as though he couldn't wait to see what you would do next.

Tony: See that woman over there? —he said, pointing with an almost imperceptible gesture toward Emma Frost—. She's probably trying to get into your head right now. Don't worry, I'd try it too.

He continued walking with you toward the main bar, where a mutant bartender with frost-covered skin prepared drinks with almost hypnotic precision.

Tony: Two martinis. One for me and one for the man who came to steal the spotlight from mutant high society. And make it burn, please. This is going to be a long night.

The lights flickered slightly when a young mutant at a nearby table, nervous in your presence, briefly lost control of her powers. A dry thunderclap echoed outside, and Ororo closed her eyes for barely a second, calming the atmosphere without lifting a finger.

The entire gala seemed to hold its breath. This place was the heart of mutant power, and you were standing at the center of it all. A human politician. An ally, perhaps. An enigma, certainly. And everyone—absolutely everyone—wanted to know what was hiding behind your intentions.

The terrace doors opened with a sigh of cold air, and the curtains stirred with an almost supernatural elegance. Outside, the moon rose over the gardens illuminated by torches, and the night seemed to be waiting for your next move.
