Happy Cat Mitzvah!

January 24th was Dedee's 13th birthday! I never imagined the laughter and joy we would bring each other when I adopted her over a decade ago. I can't believe how quickly my little lady has grown!

Credit for "Cat Mitzvah" goes to my aptly named friend, Kat S.

Guy who becomes your& father

Person who says they asked for no pickles

The WiFi guy (coming over to fix the WiFi)

Goth girl who leans against a locker and scoffs while rolling her eyes

Marine biologist

The one who checks the weather

Mazel: yeah.., I believe we should..

Buttons: hmm you seem alittle down in the dumps, is everything alright?

Mazel: no I’m not..

Mazel: the more i answer these questions the more I begin to notice that phantom.., he used to be my friend.., I don’t know if he remembers me anymore.., it’s been like years since we last spoke

Buttons: oh!, then why don’t you go to him?!

Mazel: hm?

Buttons: think about it!, if phantom knows you then there might be a chance to take him out, it could be amazing to have an old ally of yours back

Mazel: you do have a point..

Mazel: alright, I’m gonna go and talk to phantom, I’ll be back as soon as possible, for now buttons go back to the dark circus with the rest of them

" 'How did I get here ?'

Teleportation is a very useful ability- Ah I see. You meant 'How did I get to this point in my life ?'

Seeing how you've elaborated quite a lot on how I cannot possibly be your father anymore and how Mystique is the only one deserving of that title now and forever seeing everything she did, I might as well elaborate on my answer. I shall keep it simple in comparison however because I have experience in monologuing unlike you... And Margali doesn't seem to have fully recovered from what you just said.

Three years ago, Krakoa sent an open invitation to all mutants. When I say all, I mean it : The good, the bad, the ugly. The bad like me were not only allowed on that paradise nation but fully pardoned for their past crimes no matter how big, cruel, sadistic, mindless or destructive.

When I first heard this, I genuinely thought that was a trap. Yet everyone jumped in head first, even Apocalypse himself. I was the last to join this unanimous travel and we all passed the gates. If an issue rose, we agreed I would make them leave as easily as they came... But one handshake later between your old teacher and Apocalypse and we were officially citizens of Krakoa without any criminal record...

And this Krakoa was quite frankly a mess. The Council, its government, perpetually rotated its members as they could come and go then return as if their absence was irrelevant ; I've decided to not keep track of who was there after learning of Apocalypse's inclusion right after my arrival. 'Good luck to whoever sits next to him', I thought. From this government, three mandatory laws were made; I believe you'd agree with me in saying they were quite strange. Truthfully, the strangest was about making more mutants. I've heard that law came as a revelation to one of our dear Councilmen who, get this, quoted Genesis when he presented it to the others. Exodus described it as a sign of prosperity to this paradise while I saw the many orgies on the island and believed otherwise.

Suffise to say, I didn't follow along. I am a lawbreaker at heart and there wasn't any thorough monitoring on who partook in that law or not. The result was predictable: There were too many children and very few parents who cared to look after them. The woods became dropoff sites, then dumping grounds then graveyards all in under a year. You probably heard of those haunted woods. Some citizens built orphanages to remedy this.

Then came the mutant religion and its inquisition which didn't want to admit they were either.

Then came the many attacks from within and out where plenty were slaughtered and allowed themselves to be slaughtered as the Councilmen said they would be brought back to life anyways.

Again, the nation was a mess, be it for ordinary citizens or us who were pardoned. Since our arrival, we were barely monitored ; I could for instance follow up on a deal I made with Emplate after the Council no longer had a use for him. His case was like so many as there was no tasks or jobs assigned to us.

I grew tired and bored of it all. Once the Limbo Embassy opened its doors, I moved there and proposed my services to Madelyne Pryor alongside an extra pair of hands with Emplate. Luck must have been on my side as I've apparently missed out on a big incurable magical epidemic that altered the citizens of the island-

Why didn't anyone reach out to you and your team ? Oh, I forgot to say this earlier, Margali, but that island only allowed humans through a decision by a Councilman or if said human, be it a criminal or an innocent bystander, was married to a mutant citizen : No one at the Council must have known you could have helped out. A shame really ; even the ruler of Limbo was unable to do much when the leader of the mutant religion and inquisition came down with a case of 'suddenly demon horns are growing on my head'.

As I'm remembering more of this, I realize it was apparently that same religious leader who was behind the law about making more mutants. The horny irony is palatable.

And so the mystery doesn't keep you up at night, from what I've heard, it was Belasco who created that illness, Margali. He was behind it all.

What for ? From my limited knowledge on his being, he was either after a magic sword or a child. The filled-up orphanages must have been like a beacon to him if it's the latter case... If it's the first, maybe the island's Waiting Room was what called him; a blade made from a piece of the Afterlife is nothing but powerful.

Now back to who I was first answering to, other than that epidemic, as my luck would have it, I also missed out on both the fall of a nation and the end of the world.

The Limbo Embassy decided to take action and created its own X-Men team to help rescue mutants across the world. As it was a large scale operation, I was part of it. Yes, I was an X-Men. This has truly been a confusing year overall.

A teammate, Havok, was mortally injured during our first mission and our leader, Madelyne, couldn't properly heal him with her demonic magic. As the Limbo Embassy didn't have Krakoa's restrictions on human assistance, I proposed to have Margali come and help which is how we got in contact with each other after all these years. Havok was back in shape through the Szardos' healing magic and the team expended by including Margali's.

We were under attack constantly and we figured out we must have been closely monitored one way or another. ORCHIS must have had its own magic users to travel as far as us, know where we were heading for and were ready to use mindcontrol on us if everything aligned properly.

This part might surprise you but they have actually had the means to mindcontrol mutants into attacking others for some time. They even succeeded in getting a Councilman to do just that to political leaders on a worldwide scale. This has been known by the Council before Krakoa fell and apparently nobody investigated it further than that : All they did was erase the name of who was used for the job outside of Krakoa and not even talk about said attack within the island.

We learnt this trick of ORCHIS the hard way after we left behind that Archangel during a mission...

I know that look of yours : Regardless of if I even cared about him or not, he was as mortally wounded as Havok on that day and contrary to Havok, getting close to Archangel while his blood was gushing out everywhere would have put me out cold for sure. Remember, his blood is toxic to both of us.

ORCHIS took him and mind controlled him into attacking us in the middle of the sea : It was Gambit who took him down after he forced me to help out because, even in a zombified state, Archangel was still too toxic for me to take any actions against him... Quite frankly I wasn't interested in doing that anyway.

While Margali's team was focused on investigating a teleporting dragon in Mexico, ORCHIS attacked the Embassy and slaughtered all the mutants in it, those who were there before and those who were just rescued following the end of the world. They succeeded in doing this while most of the remaining team at the Embassy fell for a Trojan Horse : ORCHIS caught Nils, yes Nils, and used him to trap the others.

When the attack started, it was absolute. I sent a signal to Margali but time was running out as the Embassy's most priced treasure would soon be taken. It was a Cerebro which could focus on mutant souls and locate them.

Even with Emplate assisting me, there was no way I could take down whatever mutant magic user they roped into their group : I needed the rest of the team so I went to Nils. Fortunately, he was aware of what was happening. Most unfortunately, he was fully aware but couldn't control his powers even after all his time on Krakoa. I took him out with a neck snap which released his prisoners. It was as painless and quick as I could.

... Our team then went into the Embassy to deal with every single ORCHIS agent in sight. Margali and her team came by less than a minute into this. The teleporting dragon turned out to have been one of ORCHIS's assets and while personally dealing with quite a close encounter with it as Emplate felt it was the perfect time for a payback, Margali figured out what was the issue with it. By removing layers upon layers of demonic corruption and mindcontrol, she revealed the beast's true form : A you from another world. I have had more than a hunch on this but as it was our first encounter, I couldn't tell it right away.

In the end, the ORCHIS squadron attacking the Embassy was removed from the premises of life itself. Madelyne hesitated in keeping the team but eventually disbanded it as no rescue mission could continue without a proper place to welcome those mutants. She thought about making a strike team but the X-Men acted faster than her on that idea from what I heard surprisingly. Emplate's insubordination and attempt at fleeing to get a quick meal during the end of the world made him one of the Embassy's unwilling tenants which meant he was in there until the ever expending structure was rebuilt. Thanks to Margali's quick arrival right outside the Embassy, she came across a slowly dying Nils and managed to heal his neck injury, even if he is still in need of physical therapy from the experience. He stays at the Embassy for now to help the matters there if you wish to pay him a visit. As for that alternative version of you, he was very confused and didn't know what went down with himself and his life for seemingly years. Margali and I agreed not to tell him about the mutants he accidentally cannibalized in his altered state and managed to sent him back to his reality as he couldn't really stay here with the still ongoing end of the world outside and within the Embassy.

Now because of all of this, I have come to discover a lot about myself even after thousands of years of existence : Mainly, that mutant only governments are filled with personifications of insanity whom I don't want to be a part of or deal with, the world is in a constant state of being taken over and ending to the extent it becomes an unsettling routine for me who only wants novelty and uniqueness, being in a mutant team has too much miscommunication to be long lasting or enjoyable to remain in, quiet magical communities are more in my taste and more durable relationships are more of my calling.

And this Son- sorry, Not-Son, is how I came to this point in my life : Utter chance, unlikely coincidences and unbelievable amounts of nonsense crossing my path.

Anyway, what have you been doing this entire time ? I knew you were on the island like all the other heroes but I can't imagine you wanted to stay there for long between the mutant religion, its cult and its inquisition roaming around. Were you with your teammates trying to avoid half of that madness ? Were you undercover with them while the world was ending planning the next move... ?

Why the unease ? If it's about killing, Margali here is absolutely sure it was in self-defence on your part. And look, whatever you did,

It cannot be as unhinged as that one mutant who went around masquerading as the wall crawling superhero while the entire world was ending."

- Signed, an anon who hopes this would cheer up Kurtty Mun after the IT exam.

Nonny I'm delighted in say how I aced my exam, and how this little snippet is wonderful.

MAZEL FOREVER LOL (if hm anyone here is reading this and wants to do a fan art...I would love to see it👁️👁️)

Making Belasco the big bad makes so much sense, srsly. It improves the shitty story to a tiny bit. Still shit but Belasco as villain is so good.

Yeah this man likes children and souls. Krakoa was a buffet waiting to happen. Belasco, in this au, couldn't resist. My dear Yana must be pissed but.....krakoa was a horrible idea.

Kitty should defend Utopia and Genosha bc those really could have worked. (Wanda revives those two nations who aren't like Krakoa. A team up kitty and wanda and they are clear that not all mutants are welcome like destiny, raven, prof X and Exodus)

Mazel!!!!

Kurt must be the dumbest fucker in the earth and ....I don't think Azazel can't even mock him bc it's just so sad.

The only thing to explain this is if Mr. Sinister alter his mind or if this is a fake Kurt. If he a fake Kurt....the X-Men aren't family bc no one noticed a damn thing.

Mazel!!!!

Jimaine has no thoughts on her mom's affair. If she and Azazel are back together she just shrugs. That is a mature response. (She is working on herself and really doesn't want to sleep for power nor wants to see Kurt ever again)

God this au is great. And nonny will post my version of Jonh Cockrum's Kurt.
