[It's some fabulously obscene hour of the morning when Erik ~~bullies into life~~ fires up his network gadget and sets it on the counter in his kitchen to use as an impromptu webcam. His kitchen and living room are attached, so through the monitor one can see not only the front window with its curtains open, but the viva-la-whathehell going on below it.

Erik himself is leaning against the window and smoking, dressed from the day before like he hasn't been to sleep, and contemplating the unfolding scene with acerbic dispassion.]

Your City suffers from a poorly organized case of Revolution, it appears. [Capital letter audible.] Are we soldiering bravely on toward anything in particular, or have we lost one too many games of Risk?

[He smokes. Acerbically, or one of those other synonyms for 'dry' his typist is running through like Kleenex.]

Circumstances being what they are, this does strike me as the ideal time to mention I'm advertising my services as a locksmith. A profession coincidentally also often dealing with securities.

[Wouldn't it be comically inaccurate if this gave anybody the impression Erik was against bloody revolution as a means of affecting change.]

Oh, well, maybe. There are a couple blokes about who seem to know what they're doing. Word on the street about what places to hit, and that.

Let me rephrase. Is there an endgame?

There's always an endgame.

But for whom, one wonders.

[It's probably just you wondering that, Erik.]

Theoretically everyone. It's the point of them.

Well. Everyone who matters.

Yet absolutely no one here seems to be serviced by this one.

And geodes are just rather ugly rocks.

It's not enough to be willing to tear down the world. You've got to be able to put something better in its place. And if no one cares about your revolution, then you'll have no one building for you.

Oh well. You don't. Loads of others do.

I suppose that's best left to the future, isn't it.

Yes. We'll see.

[ooc: It's a dummy revolution in order for the Lokis to pretend to betray each other to the deities over it, and to create another distraction in order to attempt to use the Sceptre on them to try and mind control the deities into defeating each other. And then Lokis rule the City! Much better.

bawww, that is SO ~~raven~~ LOKI

And way too intricate for Erik, Magneto's style is more "I will smash all your shit into the ground and then erect my own in its place. alternatively: give me an island."

They're gonna put Loki in its place. Works even if you don't know the minutiae.

see, lokis in charge of the city also kind of disturbs erik for SOME REASON i can't think of why offhand.

IDK WHY THEY'RE BASICALLY THE OPPOSITE OF NAZIS.

Well.

Can he have his own island? For his mutants (and other special people whatever)? Which he is in charge of and the Lokis never, ever interfere ever because they are a sovereign nation?

If you can find another island go ahead but the Lokis reserve the right to visit sometimes. Not to do anything, just to visit.

What about a chunk of the city that can be partitioned off? Visiting rights included unless...idk unless a special mutant holiday is going on.

...I'm being at least 70% serious here, Erik would totally sit down at the negotiating table with the Lokis.

.......and that doesn't sound too much like a mutant ghetto?

If the Lokis were going to win they would totally talk this through with Erik.

Nah, it's only like, mutant ghetto if you have to stay there and can't LEAVE. This would be a safe space where you, as a mutant, could go if you wanted to interact with ONLY other mutants. Does that make sense? They actually have something like this in Marvel at one point, creatively named "Mutant Town."

Alas.

Loki totally counts as a mutant because he is the BITTIEST FROST GIANT.

also unfortunately magneto's journey from atrocity victim to actually like ...utilizing a lot of those methods.........is well documented.

i do not want this to happen to erik. ._.

and then charles would shit kittens

So many kittens in fact

Charles why will you never let Erik just protect you the way he wants to and not ...................at all as you would prefer

OH NO. And Magneto's plans all inevitably failing makes sense now.
