So, I've been toying with an idea all weekend that I think may interest at least some of you. But before I go through the trouble of getting an AU board set up for it, I want to run it by everyone and see who would be interested. And so, without further adieu, I give you: The AU where everyone's in a laboratory and ethics aren't completely disregarded.
The Plot:
At an unnamed facility in an undisclosed location (possibly connected to Trask Industries because I like canon), a project studying genetic mutation in human beings is under way. The head researcher is an Oxford graduate by the name of Charles Xavier, the world's foremost expert on genetic mutation.
The facility houses a group of mutant test subjects of varying ages and mutations. They are all treated relatively well at Dr. Xavier's instance, and while the experiments are strictly monitored as to not stray into the realm of obnoxiously inhumane, each subject is repeatedly pushed to his or her limits.
Unbeknownst to his superiors, Dr. Xavier is also a mutant. A powerful telepath, he took control of the entire facility within his first year at work, implementing changes meant to better the situation of the test subjects and he's thus far been wildly successful in increasing cooperation from the subjects. In keeping his telepathy a secret, Dr. Xavier manages to run the facility and all the minds therein with impressive efficiency.
(So, this mainly stems from a desire to write more dark!Charles, but I would like to know if any of you would like to get involved if I were to set this up as an AU board.)
