[Still shocked.]

So, what - only you guys can feel it?

[nyc_merlin]

I could show you if you wanted. [He wiggles his fingers at him.] But it involves touching you and working some magic on you.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

[This'll take some thinking. Mutants can really fuck with you through simple touch, as Rogue has proven many times. But this sounds interesting, and he's really wanting to call bullshit right now.]

Yeah, fine. But if anything about me's different when you're done, you'll get fucked up one way or another.

[nyc_merlin]

Don't bite my fingers off, okay?

[He reaches out, rests his fingers gently on John's temples and then dips his consciousness into New York City through his own magic. It is a living, breathing thing to Dean's mind and immensely powerful. He only spends a few seconds there before he pulls them both out.]

Ta-da.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

[John finally snuffs out the flame in his hand, giving Dean a look that's half-wary, half-impressed.]

That's really what it feels like?

[nyc_merlin]

To me, yeah. Cool isn't it? All that... vastness and life.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

Must be what Cerebro feels like.

[Not that he has good memories of Cerebro now. Since, you know, it nearly killed them all.]

[nyc_merlin]

Say what? Who's Cerebro?

[ex_outofcontrol435]

Bigass computer-thing. Only really high-level telepaths can use it. When you hook up, you've got a mental link with every mutant in the world - strong enough to pin down where they are, what they do, everything.

[His expression is foul.]

If you can see the weakness in that, you're just as smart as the psycho we just ran into not long ago.

[nyc_merlin]

Okay, that's creepy. Why would anyone build that?

[ex_outofcontrol435]

[He laughs a bit at that, rather snidely.]

You must not know that many mutants if you don't know about Xavier's. Charles Xavier's the high-level telepath behind it, and he uses it to recruit. For his school and for the X-Men.

[A sidelong look.]

You do know about the X-Men.

[nyc_merlin]

Yes, I know about the X-Men. I've never met any, which is weird because superheroes love my club.

[ex_outofcontrol435]

Well, you still haven't. [He turns like he's about to leave, firing that over his shoulder.] But you've met one of their enemies.

[nyc_merlin]

[He sticks his tongue out at him.] See ya later, cutie.
