Democratic Party

The Democratic Party is focused on advancing their Democratic Platform and looking for positive solutions that include everyone.

Their stance on, what would be considered, issues for major political debate would be:

Every person in this nation should be treated with dignity and respect

Health care is a right for all

Hard work of middle class families should be rewarded

Schools and streets should be free from gun violence

Women should be able to make decisions about her own body

A continuation based off of my earlier post from two days or so. This was just supposed to be suggestions with scene alterations but my special self just had to turn it into a three-day production.

With a few tweaks, X-Men First Class could have been a better, more thought-provoking, honestly objective film.

I've already addressed the facts that the film favors Erik's cynicism too much. I also don't like the insulting implications that all of the women and non-white mutants going with him was some type of empowering moment. No- just no. However, with some modifications, let's try for a balanced story. Starting post-recruitment.

First off, don't kill Darwin. To this day, people are pissed that such a likeable character with ADAPTATION powers was callously thrown away like that. No, his powers won't break the plot. Just because he can change form to survive doesn't mean he can single-handedly defeat Shaw's forces. And here's a crazy idea, don't have Angel follow those fools, either. Maybe she's scared and unsure of who to trust, but when she sees how Darwin doesn't fall for that lame 'slave' remark, she's not sold on that 'queen' bait, either.

Maybe have Alex go with Shaw instead. He's hesitant and unable to face the disappointment in Darwin's eyes- they had started to connect- but he thinks Shaw's team will win the day. At least if mutants take over, he won't have to lock himself in a cage anymore. Besides, the CIA would likely dump him back in prison after the massacre. I also don't buy a young girl screaming and crying as she sees people murdered being so easily seduced into joining the killers.

When Charles and Erik return, Charles hugs Raven then goes over to offer Angel one as well. She's taken aback at first.then eases into it. Cue a hint of jealousy from Raven. Sean is still adamant about staying. Darwin agrees, bringing up how they killed the Oliver Platt agent, who advocated for them, so gruesomely. And everyone is genuinely upset about that instead of glossing it over simply because the agent was an expendable non-mutant. This whole film series infuriates me with how it has no respect for life.

Erik says, "Then, let's finish this mission. For him." He actually means 'for me' but it produces the desired effect.

Everyone agrees to stay, but Angel is apprehensive. With Alex on the other side, Shaw's team is packing all the fire power. Charles emphasizes that they absolutely must train. Also, training lasts four weeks instead if one because come on. One daggon week is not enough time to get everybody into shape, for Hank to complete the cure, and for bonds to forge. Stop moving at the speed of Disney romance, Matthew Vaughn.

They're all astounded upon seeing the mansion for the first time. At Charles proclaiming, "It's ours," and Erik snarking about 'hardship' Darwin is immediately perturbed and says pointedly, "You're really going out of your way for us, Professor. Thank you." The bashful Professor replies, "Just Charles, please." "And by the way," Raven slinks over, 'accidentally' nudging Angel out of the way, "that hardship was softened by me." An appreciative Charles hugs her and kisses her head. Raven takes them on the tour.

Over in hellfire land, Alex gives Shaw demonstrations of his plasma beams. The older man is instantly impressed. Alex brings up, "I heard Erik and the Professor talking once. I know what you did to Erik. How you made him stronger." An apathetic Shaw responds, "Your point?" Alex states, "I want you to do the same for me." Intrigued, creepy grin from Shaw.

Okay, x-training.

When Charles doesn't want to shoot Erik for deflection practice, a passing Darwin offers to instead. He explains, "Drive a cash-only cab on the east coast- better know your way around a piece."

Erik remarks, "You are aware you're gifted with divine sentient armor, yes?"

Darwin replies, "That's on a need to know basis. And New Year's Eve whinos don't need to know. Haven't had to pull the trigger yet."

Charles looks on pleased that Darwin hasn't had to harm anyone. While Erik deflects every shot, the telepath becomes uncomfortable at the masochistic vibes he's giving off. That's when Charles suggests a more interesting challenge, which leads to that satellite dish/Hanukkah scene all the slash fans melt over but that I've grown cold towards because Singer and Kinberg ruined Erik, wasted Michael Fassbender's time, and my emotional state as an FC fanatic. So help me, I hope they both burn i- moving on.

The x-training scenes are interspersed with scenes of various experiments being performed on Alex.

Angel and Sean become flight buddies with many a quip about the redhead being the Peter Pan to the the petite butterfly's Tinkerbell. In addition to pushing Sean off the satellite, Erik hurls random jagged discs at Angel. One of her wings is injured before she can center herself and Sean has to catch and glide her to the ground. Charles is incredulous, a bit of Hank's inner beast rears its head as he checks Angel over and snaps at Erik for almost getting her killed.

Unsurprisingly, the metal wielder is unapologetic. "This isn't recess, children. Maybe if you hadn't been so preoccupied with fun & games, you could've done more than cower while dozens of men were slaughtered."

Sean is crushed and Angel has to look away to hide the gloss in her eyes.

Hank retorts, "Maybe that wouldn't have happened if you had what it takes to stop Shaw a long time ago. You recruited us, Erik. Not the other way around."

Charles lightly chides, "Hank," but Erik merely says, "Knew there was a mutant in you. Nice to know there's a man in there as well."

Hank doesn't reply as he and Sean take Angel inside to the infirmary.

Once the younger mutants are out of earshot, Charles barely hides his anger as he seethes, "I'd ask if you've lost your mind but that's a foregone conclusion."

"She's fine," Erik dismisses.

"Being a firm taskmaster is one thing but you are crossing one too many lines. Sean was enough but Angel wasn't wearing a scrap of metal for you to snag. Erik, you could have killed that girl."

Erik comes back with, "Sean ensured that didn't happen. A few flesh wounds will feel euphoric compared to what Shaw will do to them. Either they can rely on each other on the field or they can't. It's better we unload the dead weight now."

"Dead weight," Charles echoes in disbelief.

At the younger man's unreadable expression, Erik gives him a prompting look. "Don't bite your tongue now, lab rat."

"I told you I felt- and still feel- every shred of agony he subjected you to. Erik," Charles spoke with a mix of sadness and gentle disapproval, "Sebastian Shaw is in your head far deeper than I can penetrate."

As Charles goes inside, Erik is left legitimately wordless.

Later in the mansion gym, Darwin is spotting between an agitated Hank and a tired but persevering Sean. Raven is using dumbbells nearby.

When Hank lasts longer, Darwin takes the barbell from him. "And the beast is boss."

Sitting up, Hanks asks, "You alright?"

A winded Sean replies, "No," and towels off. "Want to go at the bag a while? Pretend it's the Magnet-toe?"

Hank smiles, "Don't tempt me with such imagery right now."

Raven pipes up, "He's really intense, but... I dunno. He's seriously dedicated."

Sean says, "You can admire him. He's not a big enough head case to mess with the Professor's sister."

"Hey, I don't get any special treatment around here," Raven insists. "Remember how that impromptu dance party was all my fault somehow?"

Guilt flashes over Darwin's face at that.

As the younger men leave, Hank and Raven exchange sweet smiles. Erik is entering and they briefly exchange icy blue eyes.

Noticing the shape-shifter, Erik mentions, "It would seem I'm in disgrace with your brother."

"Preaching to the choir," Raven says lightheartedly. She puts the dumbbell down to rub her arms. "Do I have a brother? He's been so jazzed about training the rest of you."

"Well, you ladies are delicate blossoms in his eyes, aren't you?" Erik reaches out to stroke her shoulder and Raven flinches. Erik calmly explains, "You have a cramp forming that will leave that shoulder aching all night." At ease, Raven lets him massage it. "The dream boat's left the harbor you know."

Raven eyes him in confusion. "Excuse me?"

"Hank," Erik clarifies. "I'd say its safe to remove your makeup."

Raven ignores him and goes to bench press. Erik snatches the bar out of her grasp. Insert the 'save energy, be blue, I'm only paying you any mind because you're freaky looking, adolescent girls are ruled by their emotions, those black kids are harshin' my oppression street cred, and your brother's recently had the nerve to mildly contradict me and I need to keep at least one Xavier in my back pocket' speech here.

At night, Angel suffers a violent nightmare. Hank, Raven, and Sean are in the hall with Darwin heading for her door. The Professor appears and calmly indicates for no one to come any closer.

Standing outside the door, Charles calls, "Angel? Angel, are you alright?"

Awake, she gives off a strained, "Yeah."

''May I come in, please?"

Once she grants him entry, Charles pulls a chair over to speak to the sweat coated girl at her bedside. "The massacre?" At her accusatory look, he explains, "Your every terror projected into my mind as if I lived them myself."

Angel tries to deflect. "It's not- it's nothing. Something must've messed me up at dinner. All this gourmet food is a shock to my system."

Charles eyes her kindly but knowingly. "Angel, you have no reason to be ashamed. What you witnessed was as sickening as it was senseless. There is no weakness in recognizing brutality for what it is."

Angel stays quiet a moment. "You and Erik already found me collecting tips for tricks. I know your neighbors must assume I'm the hired help. I don't want you to think that I'm too pitiful to amount to anything more than a 50-cent gutter reject."

Charles rushes to nip that in the bud promptly. "You, young lady, weren't rejected by any rubbish heap. You never belonged there in the first place. You knew pain long before any of this unfolded. I only wish I could've found you- all of you- sooner."

Angel manages a small smile of reverence. "Where did you even come from?"

"Want me to dig out my thesis?" Charles jokes. "I'm told it's a foolproof sleep aide."

Angel laughs softly then appears thoughtful. "Your powers don't just see memories, right? You can, um, push them back?"

Charles nods. "May I?"

She nods back and lays down again.

The telepath drapes a hand over her forehead, gently decluttering her mind until she's able to drift away.

Much later that night, an absently channel surfing Darwin is alerted when the TV remote is suddenly levitated out of his hand. He glances back at the wizard of metal entering the sitting room.

Erik sits on the arm of the sofa. "Your adaptability makes a full night's rest obsolete?"

"Don't I wish?" Darwin then asks, "Does yours?"

With a furtive smirk, Erik brings up, "Demons haunting a certain Angel?"

"You'll have to ask her about that."

"I'm asking you."

"Which you wouldn't need to do if you'd been concerned enough to drag yourself out of bed like the rest of us," Darwin says matter-of-factly.

"I did. Roughly an hour before she woke up the rest of you. I was finishing up a round of calisthenics when I saw Charles keeping tabs on her." Noticing him in short-sleeve workout apparel, Darwin averts his eyes when they land on the numbered tattoo. Erik doesn't miss it, though. "Something on your mind?"

Darwin faces the TV. "We shouldn't have to fight him."

"Shaw?" Erik scoffs. "His converting a government facility into a human slaughterhouse seemed like a desperate cry for help to you?"

"I mean Alex." The younger man then reasons, "It's not hard to see through that thick shell he puts up. He went from isolation in a hole to witnessing mass murder. He's confused, probably afraid of going straight back to lockup, maybe even-"

"He chose a side," Erik cut in sharply. "The wrong one. With his time spent under Shaw's wing, you cannot afford to pull punches on your lost playmate."

"Playmate," Darwin echoes dryly, looking at him. "We're the same bunch of B-list flunkies you wrote off before Russia, aren't we? But now that the stakes are higher than ever, you're stuck with us."

Erik apathetically responds, "D-list is pushing it."

"You were right." At grabbing the older male's attention, Darwin continues, "We were nowhere near ready for this two weeks ago. Everybody was having a great time, most of us feeling free for the first time ever. But I never should have let it escalate that far. I don't know how I...." Darwin appears reflective. "Every time we went into a department store- any time we set so much as one foot outside our neighborhood' my folks had it grilled into me: Head up and mouth shut."

Erik's eyes reveal a flicker of empathy. "I didn't mean I wanted you to file straight to the back of the bus. I refuse that- for any of us. We're paving the way for a whole new species, Darwin. Void of the current one's inane hangups on aesthetics and station."

Darwin questions, "Voided through progress or duress?"

Erik releases a faint wry chuckle. "A man after the Professor's own heart."

"And God help him," Darwin flicks him the remote on his way out, "Alex is after yours."

At daybreak, Angel makes her way down to the Xavier kitchen. Both gasp as a blue Raven morphs into blonde.

"I thought you were...."

"Your nerdy prime rib," Angel fills in knowingly. "Girl, please," she sits at the island, "don't be putting on airs. It's Mutant Manor around here."

Raven remains disguised and wears a taut smile. "Unfortunately, we weren't all blessed with pretty mutations."

Angel raises her head. "And some of us weren't blessed with pretty British brothers or a Barbie on/off switch." She gets an apple out of the bowl and takes her leave of the mute Xavier girl.

The only one around currently, Angel finishes the apple while roaming the magnificent mansion. She happens upon the lower area Raven specifically avoided during their tour.

"Searching for Frankenstein's Monster or Eve's Eden?"

Angel turns at Charles' voice. "This whole place is that second thing and your special sadist friend is the first one."

"Quite," Charles smiles then grows slightly somber. "That was my stepfather's laboratory. We had it sealed off after he died."

Angel points out the space. "Did he....?'

"There was an accident," Charles confirms cryptically. "Please, this is the one area of which I want you all to steer clear."

Angel develops instant nerves. "I- I'm sorry."

"It's fine, really," Charles reassures.

Inching closer to him, Angel peered up coyly. "When this is all over, if you keep me on until I can get some money together.... I can make you happy, Charles. If you want."

Charles catches her wrist when she goes to touch his face. "Angel, no. No, no, you don't have to do that. And I'm certainly not 'keeping you on'. This is your home for as long as you want it to be."

Angel appears so taken aback that her features soften and a childlike air surround her. "You.... You don't want anything from me? At all?"

"You've already made me happy, dear girl," Charles asserts warmly. "Even with all that we're preparing to face, having all of you here has filled this old empty place with more happiness than its known in far too long."

Angel regards him compassionately. "Bad things were done to you here, weren't they?"

Charles attempts levity. "Don't tell me you've developed a mental mutation."

She simply responds, "I had a stepfather, too."

Charles clasps her chin gently. "Have you eaten this morning?" At her showing him the remains of the apple, he brings an arm around her and begins guiding the way upstairs. "Come on. Let's get some actual breakfast in you. If you shrink anymore, we'll never get your feet back on the ground."

Angel giggles softly. "It's all good. I'm diggin' it on Cloud 9."

From a distance, an observing Raven slinks away before Charles can sense her presence.

After receiving no more than two hours of sleep, a startled Darwin is given a wake-up call in the form of a bucket of cold water.

From the doorway, a dispassionate Erik instructs, "The rear gardens. Five minutes." He leaves with that.

With many uncharacteristic swear word under his breath, Darwin rushes to dress in workout clothes. In the empty backyard, he calls for Erik. The only response he receives is a flying dagger to his shoulder that catches him completely off-guard. He is yanked from his dazed state as dozens of metal implements target him like heat-seeking missiles. He does his best to dodge them but he receives several knicks as he tries to flee into the woods. His powers only heal small scratches and even that's at a much shorter rate than he's used to.

Their minds linked via Charles, the telepath, Erik, Raven, Hank, Sean, and Angel are able to watch Darwin's performance on the satellite dish. Angel and Sean wince in empathy, Hank gives Erik period fury eyes but can't help his fascination with Darwin's abilities, and Raven is mostly smiling, focusing on the ones Darwin evades more than the ones that strike him.

When Darwin makes it into the woods, Erik mentally addresses him.

Erik: Catch your breath or keep your life. Your choice.

Darwin then has to drop to the ground facedown to avoid being beheaded by an antique sword.

Erik: You can graze later.

Aware that Charles must have consented to this, Darwin rises. "What's your game, Erik?"

Erik: As I keep reminding you wonderfully made but stupidity prone whelps, this isn't a game. If it were, riding the bench would be more dignified than you deserve.

Charles doesn't contradict him in front of the students, but casts an expression of unmistakable reprimand on him.

Nostrils flaring and fury ready to burst, Darwin remains in place as the next assault metal targets him. Instead of evading it, he seizes the sword by its handle. He then proceeds to ferociously swipe at every incoming object in-between dashing out of the way of the ones that attempts to sneak up on him.

Erik quietly develops the same expression of awed satisfaction when he first saw Sean take flight.

Raven teases: Look at Erik glowing.

Unaware that their link allowed the youngsters to see his face, Erik gave an impish Charles a scathing look.

Erik: Yes, glowing in amusement over such amateur swordplay.

Sean recognizes the Irish weapon: Is that a claideb?

Erik: According to the blacksmith.

Angel: Geez, Erik, we know you're ancient but you didn't have to bring all your medieval knicknacks from the old country."

Erik: Trot the globe as much as I have and you collect a few noteworthy trinkets here and there.

Out of breath, dirty, and worn, Darwin casts down the sword and tries to climb up to the satellite dish. Hank and Sean help him partway up. Hank immediately retrieves the first-aid kit to treat the residual wounds.

When the girls come over to shower Darwin with kudos, Sean jokes, "Would it kill you to leave just a fragment of cool for the rest of us?"

Darwin responds, "No but life with this metal menace will. Charles, please tell me there's a legit reason you're indulging this side show."

Charles explains, "Would a genuine concern suffice?"
