I've always thought there was a darker side to Xavier than what's been hinted to in the past. He's got his hand in too many pies and has too many resources to be doing this all on his own. He's made alliances that may not always have been on the up and up. I also don't think the X-Men could have handled knowing.

I think you wrote this perfecting and had the characters playing their roles exactly as I think they'd be in real life.

Awesome work!
