Quick Author’s Note: Yes I know Magneto had Wanda and Peter … I’m going with really bad plot hole from hell that Days of Future Past had that didn’t include Wanda … just go with it.
Timestamp #2: Unexpected Arrival (Set three years after Cuba)
The ended up sending Erik to talk to Austin, for some reason the two got a long, something no one had expected. Charles was the only one, who knew why Erik took to Austin – he reminded him of his father, who was soft spoken, polite and willing to help anyone who asked. It helped that Austin had planted a small rose bush, Edie’s favorite, in honor of Edie and Jakob Leshnerr.
So it was Erik who explained they would need to move the Rose Garden.
And moved it they did.
It was a good work out for everyone, despite having blisters for days afterwards.
It was a rare moment when Charles hated Erik’s mutation as he sat on one of the benches and used his powers to make a few of the shovels dig holes. When Alex asked why he wasn’t ‘working out’, Erik coughed and rubbed his chest.
Charles wasn’t sure if he had wanted to glare or laugh.

Sylum Inspiration: Megan Tillman
Sylum: Member
Megan and her sister Gabrielle grew up in the suburbs of New York. She adored her older sister, looked up to her in so many ways. She felt helpless when her sister was raped, and he got away with it, because it took Gabrielle two days to report it.
When her sister died on an overdose of drugs, she felt lost.
She went on, got her degree, became a doctor and found a job in New York working in the ER. And then her life changed when she saw her sister’s rapist just order a coffee.
Megan will be the first to tell you, she wasn’t proud of her plans to kill him, but it had to be done.
Then she met John, who helped her see past her anger and hatred. She gave him the keys to the van, and walked away.
A week later she found him in her ER, a small smile on his face. He told her, that he had been arrested in Mexico on drug charges and will never see the light of day.
She went on with her life. Until the fateful day, Harold called her and said John needed help. She grabbed her gear and made her way to the safe house. She tried to get past Harold to fix her patient, when he politely informed her John just needed the blood.
She learned about Vampires.
The next few days she was introduced to Zoe and Claire Temple. She stayed as their Chosen Ones, making sure they had enough blood, or patch up wounds that needed more care.
Until finally she saw her purpose and sought out a Vampire Doctor … Gregory House was exactly everything she was warned about. In time she figured the best option for her, was just to become a Vampire.
Sylum Information: Private Practice
Naomi Bennet was one of the characters suggested to us during our campaign to find more Woman and Poc characters. I let the person who suggest them develop the characters, and storylines and looking forward to seeing where its going.
I admit I’ve never seen Private Practice or Grey’s Anatomy so I can’t tell you if it’s worth a trip to Netflix or now – for those of you who have, let us know in the comments.
Reminder: Taking Questions for Interview with Nicolaus
This is your chance to ask Nico your questions!! We’ve lined up an interview … which wasn’t easy considering he’s been warned. So send in your questions!

Sylum Inspiration: Naomi Bennett
Ghost/Darkness: Member
Ask anyone who knows them and they will tell you that Naomi Bennett is the opposite of Addison Montgomery. Where Addison is that bright spark, Naomi is the quieter (and slightly more broody but she’s working on it) ember. She’s driven to succeed in the way that really focused people sometimes are: focused on the goal and not so great at some of the other things in life.
Naomi and Addison met in medical school and they became best friends. Where Addison is a rock star as a neonatal specialist, Naomi is the same as a fertility specialist, board-certified in reproductive endocrinology, obstetrics and gynecology.
In Naomi’s eyes, she’s done all the right things: gone to school, gotten a great career, married and had a daughter, named Maya. That’s why she’s broadsided when her husband, Sam, tells her he wants a divorce. When pressed for the reason why, he says he’s unhappy but also there’s no good reason beyond wanting to leave.
Addison walks back into Naomi’s life after a number of years looking for a change and wanting to have a baby. Although a baby is not in the cards, Naomi offers Addison the chance to join her practice, Oceanside Wellness Group, which Addison accepts.
There’s also another small wrinkle: the practice’s receptionist and midwife trainee, Dell Parker. Naomi tries to write off his feelings for her as a crush given their age difference. But there’s something about him that unnerves her in a way that she hadn’t expected. He also brings her cake which does nothing for her waistline.
When Maya becomes pregnant with a less than desirable boyfriend and Naomi loses it a little; (okay, she loses it a lot) Dell and Addison are there to talk her off the ledge.
Things go sideways when an accident puts both Dell and a laboring Maya in the hospital. Maya and her baby survive but Dell is down with a severe head injury that needs surgery, which is only stopped when Dr. Cooper Freedman comes forward and has to out Dell as a vampire to the rest of the practice.
When the dust settles, Dell takes Naomi aside and tells her everything. He also tells her that she’s his mate. That particular truth settles something inside of her and though she asks him for a little time to think about it, she already knows what her her heart says.
