SUNDAY MAY 30TH 2010
NEWS:
⊗ On Monday the clean up from the chaos of Farrell's genetically modified creatures is interrupted by an emergency broadcast first thing. The U.S. Congress and White House declare a state of emergency after President Carline Henderson and Vice President Basil Dopes are assassinated during a speech condemning Tricell's lack of security measures and what is surely a movement by the Brotherhood of Mutants to threaten the safety of the American people. Speaker of the House Havelock Vetinari steps forward during the aftermath to assure people that the situation is being thoroughly investigated. In an official statement he says that threats against the United States are taken seriously, and that steps will be taken to deal with the situation as swiftly as possible. Speculation in the media ranges from expecting a tougher line on terrorist threats to more X-Gene friendly policies.
⊗ On Thursday JFK security finally moves to a lower state as the protests begin to wind down. Officials anticipate a statement soon from Vetinari regarding the current block on X-Gene carriers travelling and X-Gene scanners, since rumours have been circulating the Vetinari himself may be an X-Gene carrier. No official confirmation has been made either way.
⊗ In less political news, on Friday Mask*DeMasque steals a priceless jewel encrusted necklace from a museum in California. Local news reports that Detectives are hot on the case.
THE XAVIER INSTITUTE:
⊗ PROM CLEAN UP
⊗ Homeroom topic of the week (and perhaps, some classes) in light of current events is politics!
⊗ Things seem like, despite all the unrest, they might now be taking a turn in the right direction. Have hope!
⊗ THE WEATHER IS GLORIOUS.
THE BROTHERHOOD OF MUTANTS:
⊗ Magneto, in an open message to Vetinari, sends his congratulations to the new President stating that he hopes his term in presidency will herald a brighter future for mutantkind; he makes several mentions of how closely the world - and Genosha - will be watching over the upcoming months, especially regarding the controversial policies on X-Gene carriers.
WHAT WOLVERINE DID THIS WEEK:
⊗ After his short lived Suncraft addiction leaves him in a less than fit state, is reported to be trying out a new Health Food diet following a warning from a doctor. This doesn't last long after a rather embarrassing accident with a blender when trying to make a green vegetable smoothie.
OOC NOTICES:
⊗ NOTE: If you have anything you wish to be in the news posts, for plots, ic things or just because you thought it'd be lulzy -- you can email your ideas to xavierinstitutemods at gmail!
⊗ As ever, this post is open for talking about what's going down for Xavier Institute classes, homeroom group meetings, Brotherhood shenanigans, etc. We do encourage people to thread classes, group activities, etc. where possible rather than just handwaving all of them, but if you don't want to do a thread or you want to plan something or w/evs, this is the place!
EXCELSIOR!
