Meeting In The Park.
What: An action log for Magneto's meeting of the super-powered.
Who: Anyone who wants to come! He's hardly checking superpowers at the door!
When: 7 PM, June 11th.
Where: The gazebo at Seaside Park.
Erik stood at the edge of the gazebo, looking out over the sea as the sun set and silently preparing himself. He was not... public-spirited by nature, and while he felt no fear at the thought of addressing a crowd, nevertheless there was a tension, a nervous excitement. He could change the balance of power here. A test run for back home.
Unseen, in the rafters above him, he had set half a dozen large iron ball bearings in a steady orbit. Their regularity was calming to him, as was the security they could provide him at a moment''s notice. Reaching out with his senses, he could detect the electrical fixtures in the gazebo, the streetlights that edged the park, the cars on the street, and several dozen other small pieces of metal moving -- belt buckles, coins, cell phone components... sometimes, the familiar shape of a gun.
He continued watching the sea until the first of these collections of metal objects moved toward him, and then -- before it came close enough to make a sound -- turned to see who his first guest was.

"Thank you." His eyes caught on the costumes of some of the people in attendance, and suddenly he wondered if this was how a muggle felt when they stumbled on a group of wizards in robes.
"I... don't think I'll be quite as useful as your other friends."
