[Sylar turns on the console. Before the screen is a man who looks nothing like Sylar himself. Instead, he sits in a full suit with horn-rimmed glasses adorning his very Jack Coleman-like appearance. When he addresses the camera, it's confident, professional, and direct.]

My name is Noah Bennet. I'm an Agent in a very specialized division of Homeland Security within the United States Government.

If anyone here knows anything about.. potentially extraordinary individuals, or works with the U.S. government, I'd like to speak to you.

Thank you.

[Right. Not everyone shares the same megalomaniacal mutant terrorist that her world does. Ororo hesitates, then rolls her eyes at her one pause.]

Magneto's a mutant terrorist where I come from and heads up an extremist brotherhood. Kind of like the Ku Klux Klan, but it's all about mutants and all against humans.

[A huff of breath, almost a laugh.]

You better take it that way. [A roll of her eyes.] No, I'm part of the team they call to deal with that BS. Except they never call us, we just show up to bail them out.

Mine's? [Another half laugh.] It's not mine, I'm just a player in it. [She shrugs up a shoulder and summons the smile she's used for a dozen interviews and more -- it's not sunny so much as an aim at confidence.] We're called the X-Men.

Bit gimicky too, but whatever. Get's the point across and makes the codenames seem less cheesy.

[A brief huff at that, then she shakes her head.]

Anyways, that's all way off what you were talking about. Sorry I got all up in your face.

All's forgiven. I understand being wary, in your situation. With your gifts.

[storm_warning]

Yeah. Self defence and all that mess.

[A shrug as she aims back towards nonchalance.]

Still, it's not a great intro for you. [A-hem; let's try again.] Welcome to turtle hell.

That's very kind of you. Thank you, Miss.. ? [He says it with a small smile.]
