Mutants and Mutates, are controversial topics around the globe, if you're the Avengers' Hulk and Captain America, you're prized protectors of the world. But if you're the X-Men, you're the scum of the Earth. S...

Lincoln and Lynn Loud were walking through the park. Lincoln was still in his suit, but he was wearing normal clothes over it, an orange hoodie with black pants. They passed by a man giving a speech to a crowd. He was an elderly man in a simple but also very well-made Deep Taupe suit and blue-grey shoes.

Behind him was a poster of his face with the words, "Vote for Mayor Marien Grags" in bold lettering on the front.
Mayor Grags: I was once mayor of Great Lake City, but now I am the mayor of Royal Lakes City. When Royal Woods' economy plummeted after a family of Mutants was burned to the ground in their home like witches in the late 1600s. Trade deals were canceled and travelers took extra measures to avoid passing through the town. Royal Woods couldn't stay on its feet, people lost their jobs and it became a ghost town! While this happened, Great Lakes City prospered!
[For context, while Royal Woods was Anti-Mutant. Great Lakes City was Pro-Mutant.]
Mayor Grags: Until I offered to fuse take in Royal Wood's land to make, Royal Lakes! A city for the people, Mutants and Humans alike can live in peace! But of course, some people refuse to accept Mutants, shops still have their doors closed their doors to Mutants. But we can just leave them be, but let them learn the same thing that Royal Woods learned when they did this! But vote for me again, and I will promise fair treatment for everyone!
The crowd cheered for the Mayor's speech. Lynn and Lincoln began to leave the park.
Lynn: The guy spouts a lot of promises.
Lincoln: It's just for PR most likely. Whether he keeps them is up to him.
[People seemed to agree with him. Glad to see some form of progress.]
Lynn: So any ideas on where to stay? I ain't helping you kill bad guys until we find a place to sleep.
[That's fair.]
Lincoln: Don't worry, I think I have an idea.
Lynn: Is it a plan or just an idea? Cause your plans normally end up with you smeared across the pavement.
