Oh... and we eventually had to go to Vegas, that would be pretty slick! Maybe more fitting for Breakaway, but it would work here too.

Sin,

I was wondering if at any point, Tim, just might have given away the location of his ranch, Morgan could probably just show up on his door step. It would be pretty interesting if something like that happened, since Tim is not staying at his main house but at his remote... I can't remember what he called it... oh, yeah a 'line shack' on the northwest corner of his property.

With agent Mitchell snooping around, Morgan's presence could really stir things up.

I think he mentioned Arnette to her (Lac could of course verify this) so she could even end up there and start inquiring where he might be. That would be pretty cool to.

My impression of Arnette is that it is really, really small. You can actually find it on Google Maps (its like a crossroads), which is why agent Mitchell and now, Wraith are staying in Lubbock which is the big city center in the area.

Hey, Lac... what do YOU think would be the best way for Morgan to make her entrance?

I think that she needs to slowly start making the decision to find Tim. Of course she would have to establish how she knew to look for him in Texas, and I think her showing up in Arnett would be best. Tim never did tell her the location of his ranch other than a reference to Arnett, Texas. She could start asking around. But no one knows he has returned. The most any one would know is the fact that he left for New York City. An any news stuff. Some of the local would know the location of the ranch, but like most samll town Texas dwellers they would be leary of telling any stranger where it was. Especially with the fact no one has seen him about in a while and the the FBI had been snooping around. In fact I think all they really know is that he left to go back to Dallas.

So I tried to set the stage a little bit for Arnett. I created a couple of sub-characters for interaction purposes so that if Morgan or anyone else for the matter blows through town looking for Tim the writer knows how to portray them. As Lac said, they will not be received to well.

Lac, I included a some history there that involves, Tim. Please let me know if it is inaccurate in any way and I'll amend it. I thought him tangling with some bikers would be fitting.

Hey, Sin

I should think there is enough information to help you write, Morgan's return now. Hope you don't feel stifled... you should still have plenty of wiggle room to write your story. I am looking forward to Morgan's return. The character has actually matured over the course of the story, which is very believable.

If you have any concerns about the current setting I would just follow your instincts and write away... if you stray a little to far, I'll let you know precisely how to amend your post quickly and concisely, but I don't think you'll have any problem jumping back in.

Your post was spot on, Tiph. The encounter with the bikers fits right in with Tim's character. Especially with him being an former Navy Seal and Dallas Undercover Policeman. I also liked the reference made to Trimble.

My intent was not to stifle Morgan's reentry but just to offer some guidence.

Thanks... and the 'stifling remark' was aimed at my tendency to over-plan things. You narrowed the field perfectly as far as I am concerned.

Thankx

I thought, agent Mitchell meeting with Henry out on the range would be more fitting.

You'll have to give Wraith some guidance in the Timble house, and yes, I am aware that Yelena is in there somewhere... plus Conswella, the housekeeper. Wraith can be become the wind in a split second so he can easily avoid 'normal people', especially ones who are just moving around normally.

Meta-humans, though, especially crime fighters are much more perceptive.

So, RPM. Where precisely is Yelena? Since Wraith is prowling around the Timble place looking for Tim he will most likely run into her. Naturally, he's not going to recognize her so I'll just role-play it accordingly.

I figure I'll just write the place as we go along, but Lac will have to fill in the particulars, specifically any hidden things of Henery that might be uncovered.

Okay, thanks guys. If all works out well, I will have my own internet tomorrow night. Am working out how I want to summarize what Morgan has gone through in her growth as well as with Sasha/Frank. Would it be feasible to say that by killing Sasha/Frank she absorbed some of their abilities i.e. control of insects, mental projection (which she is uncomfortable with, even frightened of) and the ability to sense other mutants. The latter would be very weak, as in she would have to be in close proximity in order to sense them like within 20 yards. The mental projection may be a long shot and if acceptable, this too would be somewhat weak. Her main abilities would be the animals and insects and this has grown by leaps and bounds with her aunt's help. Let me know what you think.

The key to playing one with 'super-powers' is balance. From what you've just said you obviously understand that.

This is my take on Morgan, and this is only my opinion.

Her control of these new powers should be difficult. Using the insect control, could easily back fire until she understands it better. Frank's ability of being able to sense mutants would most likely have a greater range than you mentioned. I would actually make it more like five city blocks or so. The trick with that power isn't range, its accuracy. Sure she can detect a mutant (that she has been previously made aware of, remember she needs to know something about their abilities or them) but in the beginning, Morgan is going to have a very difficult time pinpointing their specific location. It should start out being a two hundred yard radius or something, but eventually it will narrow.

Another thing, is that when she uses these new abilities, she should struggle with the presence of either Sasha or Frank creeping into her mind. This is just an idea, and one that I don't think should dominate her character, but once in a while these other personalities might influence her. This might be something you can have some fun with. I dunno.

Anyway... that's my two cents worth.
