Want to elaborate on what your character did during a past plot or add some shenanigans to a past plot? Let's discuss it here!
This could be things like specifying that your character was kidnapped during the Genosha events or that a small group of characters went on a wild accidental side quest in Mojoworld or that your character learned some truly unfortunate shit about their alternate future self during Days of Future Past. These are just noteworthy details for your character to carry with them moving forward.

Hey guys! Rin and I were talking about the NYC trip in 2015 and thought it'd be fun to pin down some of what the group was getting up to before (and maybe after) Kurt's abduction by the Morlocks. Based on the spreadsheet, this group would've been Kurt, Evelyn, Manuel, and Emma. (And maybe Bobby depending on what Kas decides!)
Things we discussed so far...:
Going to the museums! New York City is full of museums and that's a legitimate reason to give your mentor/not-dad about why you need to go visit the big city! But then also maybe...
Going to a club! They might be too young for that, but they've got a telepath on their side and they deserve it! And, ideally, the VIP treatment! Lil' dancing, lil' drinking, good times?
Quickly running to a shoe store after they realize they'll need to go into the sewer. :| Nothing personal, Kurt, but Emma's heels would get ruined be a hazard down there!
Would anyone's characters have been for or against these things? Is there anything else that we'd want to establish as having happened, whether events or intrapersonal character stuff? Let's chat!

I love it
Absolutely to Charles he was like oh I want to experience all of this amazing American art and culture!!! I'm so looking forward to this amazing cultural experience!!!!!
But..... especially as a teen, was definitely into partying and flirting and getting drunk and having fun and impressing cuties with his accent and appearance..... up until someone threw a bag over his head and hauled him off to the sewers. It's really hard to not teleport into a wall when you can't see. :(

A bad time for everyone 😌
A few questions, just to gather answers in one place; I know a lot of us have addressed this in our timelines 🙇🏻♀️ 1) Who got kidnapped? 2) Who stayed behind to help rebuild?
And additionally, if you didn't see in Manny's timeline, he had a Bad Time. Emma ended up wiping those memories from his mind without telling anyone ahead of time, but immediately after informed everyone of what had been done. The effects of this are:
1) Everyone knows that this has happened pretty immediately after it was done, so they'll know to not really talk to Manny about the specifics of his experience because he has no idea what they were. Manny does remember asking to get them wiped and is aware that that has happened, so that is not a secret. 2) Everyone will probably have opinions on this lmao. I'm curious how they feel about it in general, and how they feel about Emma and Manny's choices. Emma had an argument with Xavier about it and remains completely unrepentant about both the memory wiping and the choice to not tell anyone until after it happened. Manny obviously can only be held accountable so much. Selfishly I'm obviously very curious if this has had an effect on any of Emma's relationships with people or their opinions of her. 🥰

At one point in time, I'm going to say Kurt went missing. Not sure of the circumstances, but there was a period of 3-6ish months where Scott stepped up to lead the team.
I'll get back to this with like..... actual concepts for what happened to Kurt lol
In late 2016, a series of thefts are committed at high security science facilities, with massive holes blown right through concrete walls and people left dead on scene. Cerebro detects the presence of two mutants at these thefts: one is Jack Winters, aka Jack O'Diamonds, a career criminal, and the other is 15-year-old Scott Summers, an orphan runaway who was picked up by Jack's gang.
The X-Men are deployed to the next scene, where Scott tries to keep them off by blasting the ceiling (dropping rubble into their path) or firing near but not directly at the X-Men. Once they convince Scott to quit attacking**, they learn that he's only trying to stop them because he's scared that Jack will kill them, like he's killed anyone else who's interfered with his crimes. The X-Men reassure him that they can handle this, and go to confront Jack.
Jack is a low-level telepath who can compel people to do what he wants, which is how he's been controlling his gang of thieves (human but armed with guns). Once the X-Men deal with his gang, Jack transforms his body into a super strong, super durable diamond form. He can't compel people in this form, but he's impervious to telepathic assault. The X-Men defeat Jack** with the help of Scott. Professor Xavier offers him a spot with the X-Men, and Scott accepts because he has no one to take care of him anymore 😌
**however your character would handle this situation... open to ideas!
