Misery Loves Company

justapassingfancy asked: Hey, i'm Falcon. I'm on The Brotherhood.

Hey, Falcon. Glad to have you as an ally.

So I don’t know most of you yet.

Come talk to me, introduce yourselves, show off! I want to get to know my new family.

hey nice to meet you

i’m filcher

what do i call you?

I’m Maja, or Schadenfreude. Whichever you prefer, really. Pleasure to meet you, Filcher.

So I don’t know most of you yet.

Come talk to me, introduce yourselves, show off! I want to get to know my new family.

allaboutthememories-deactivated asked: I'm a telepath but I'm not sure if my abilities are up to par yet to help you.

Well, we can always work on improving together. I bet we can find a way to work in tandem, our powers complementing each other. What say you we meet up somewhere to train in the near future and work something out?

Heyyyyy

Putting out the call once again for telepaths in the Brotherhood. Magneto wants us to start honing our abilities, and I’m going to need to pair up with one of you guys to do that. I have plans…

It’s bedtime.

‘Night, kids. Sweet dreams all around.

“Oh, Evren. I wish you were with me, I wish I could make you feel. But you will not bring me back. I will bring you to me.

Magneto’s cause is far more suited to us. I, too, will be aided. It would be so much easier if you would only join us, darling.”

We are persons, not militia. I will live for myself and for you, not for any cause, regardless of how it suits me.  

Why not live for something large, something important as well as for you and me? This world is rightfully ours. We should not have to hide.

You should not have to hide.

The world is its own, Maja. Even if it were mine, were ours, I would not want it, only my own place large enough to stand on. 

I do not hide. In time, no one will have cause to hide— unless the Brotherhood pursues such action as to give all mutants the reputation of malcontent and belligerence.

But you do hide. You have always hidden. Your parents hid who you really were from the day you were born, and you have only continued to hide. Magneto offers a chance to be exactly who and what we all are without a hint of fear. How could you, of all people, turn that down?

My parents did the best they knew how with their limited understanding. You are the only one who has ever been upset with them for how they raised me.

And my mutation is not so obvious as to arouse suspicion from the un-mutated— you could say I hide in plain sight, I suppose. It is hardly conscious. In any case, no one else is entitled to know who or what I am unless I wish to tell them.

That is because I am the only one who is aware of both your upbringing and your true nature.

I know, I know. I just think…

Never mind. I suppose it really doesn’t matter to you at all. It just matters to me.

Then why not fight for yourself and only yourself, not the faceless others who you presume share your feelings? You do not know what is best for them, only what is best for you.

Because this is important. Many others share my feelings on the topic of our place in the world, and many more have been given no voice to speak on the topic. I fight for them.

#Maja #are you becoming frustrated with me?

No. I’m not.

Perhaps.

Translation: Yes.
