A Rally in Support of the Hungry Few

[baedalites.livejournal.com]

Who: The City
What: A Rally in Support of Cruorvores.
Where: Mercer's Square, Aspic
When: AT A CLEVER TIME
Notes: Everyone is welcome, including curious neutrals. NPCs available on request. OOC post.
Warnings: A general spirit of solidarity may be present.

Word has been spreading over the network and on the street. Leaflets have been available at open minded public houses and restaurants. A few of the city's more prominent inhabitants have organized a rally to show support for cruorvore citizens. It is going to be a public event; sanctioned, the leaflet assures, by the state. Speeches will be made, the true colours of the city will be shown. There is a lot of talk about standing up to the sowers of discord.

As the evening of the rally approaches, more and more people gather in the square. All sorts have come out for the event, xenians, humans and people who defy categorization mingle peacefully. A cat watches the proceedings from on top the stage has been erected to one end. The stage has been draped in banners promoting tolerance and acceptance, and small sign near the bottom proclaims it was built with the kind donations from Bloody Sunday, The Zygoda, Howl's Market and certain private citizens, of which there is a list. Some attendees have brought instruments and casually strike up a tune every now and then. Others have brought food, signs or torches as the rally promises to continue well into the night.

"Yeah, and it's not like any of us gotta have to deal with it alone. 'Specially you two."

He sounds more upbeat at that, and shoots Billy a look, giving him a bit of an encouraging smile. Between being aware and having the four of them to support each other, it's not gonna be that bad.

"You know, my last pseudo-parent-in-law as Mystique. She tried actively to kill my ass for years and she couldn't get it done. Erik's like what, thirty? We'll all be fiiine."

(It can always be worse.)

"... Alright, point. I am really glad it's not just me stuck here, dealing with him. ... Or just me and Tommy." Because that would actually be somewhat worse than being stuck on his own, what with... Tommy being Tommy. At least in regards to Magneto. Although this one does seem to have managed to bypass the sociopathic fanboying and cut right to hurting Tommy's feelings.

Billy is happy about approximately none of that.

"We totally have him outclassed in terms of experience, don't we? I bet he hasn't even faced any alien invasions." Pause - slightly awed realisation sinks in. "Oh my god, we're more badass than Magneto."
