Pretty sure mutants powers activate with puberty, although there are exceptions.
Our powers, from what I read, only got to manifest recently in the game - with we being called into action and what not - so I guess we are the exception. Although, how else would we know we have the ability to nullify mutant powers if we don't really know much about them aside from what we hear and see in the news.
LCD's were invented as early as the late 80's iirc. They didn't surpass crt's in sales until 07, but I can confirm that major urban areas did have consumer grade flat screen tv's.
The bigger ones could've been as thick as a crt iirc, but i'm not sure. I was a little kid so all tv's looked big.
Xavier is basically Daddy Warbucks, so plasmas aren't even sci-fi for them.
Hey, it's nice to have someone else with the same knowledge on TV as me. I also had a Plasma TV before the 2000's - my family used to be filthy rich - and yeah, they were always big. Although, I lived in a rich household and visited actual mansions and still missed on them being flat screens.
We're not talking about flat screens, but plasmas, plasmas can be flats but they were analog-boxy TVs first. But I'm being tangentic. I appreciate the reminder and again, it's nice to have someone with the same knowledge.
I'll continue further in Shiny's response to it.
On Spider-Man, I'm pretty sure J. Jonah Jameson is super pro-mutant. He makes it clear that he won't repeat anti-mutant rhetoric despite the authorities attempts to persecute the mutants. He donates to mutant charities and has his journalists on the ground to bring in honest stories about mutants. He clarifies that Spider-Man isn't a mutant or something like that.
Then what does he say that the arachnida-male-homosapien is if not a mutant? I know he gains his power thro' mutation... right?
Fine, yeah. I agree, it makes sense in the early-mid's 2000's setting I'm going for.
Go ahead. Head writer got stubborn and is attempting to condense it to fit in the game without breaking pacing. If the final draft makes it into the game, it'll be fun to see the differences.
A'ight, you bet I will.
Xavier accepted Rogue despite protest. The change is that Rogue joined after the FIRST dust-up. Various conflicts and rivalries will present themselves in different ways(Such as her jealousy of Dazzler) and once we get to the point where she joined in canon, we'll be focusing more on her canon behavior and adventures. We even have our own version of her stealing Ms. Marvel's powers.
My favourite is clear, but I also want to make a friend out of Rogue since our powers will be so much alike and this is welcomed, mostly because it reads very interestingly.
In Laura's case, Rogue was arguably worse than X-23. Xavier at the current time is far more tolerant and patient than Emma was and our Wolverine doesn't want the government to come in and take away a test subject based on him.
Xavier'll have to be very tolerant with how much degenaracy we'll be bringing into the mansion, I'm really interested in how Null'll treat him in comparison to Rogue-like - particularly in a professor role since he doesn't do much in Rogue-like.
As for Wolverine, I hope I get to meet my father-in-law and talk about his daughter-on-test-trial. Otherwise it's just sweet that the man doesn't want her taken away, it makes sense as to why he doesn't her taken away so it's not a protective father thing - which isn't the impression he gives - but it also allows for the two to share some time together and that's nice.
WTF? I'm pretty sure the abortion thing is just some grimderp fanon.
What's 'grimderp fanon?'
Lot being said about Laura, and I don't know much about it all but I'd like to say this;
As a reader, I'm much more willing to feel something for the unfortunate protistution and multilation thing if it happens in what I'm reading, not before - I feel bad and wished it didn't happen to a character I like, but if they're just words in a human that already copes pretty well with it, then it's not that interesting.
It does't need get to that point with Laura, or any other character. It can just be a friendlier interpretation of the story, but that's also dangerous since that can mean the characters here differ too much from the ones in the story it's trying to follow.
