Thanks for that explanation, Kim. Yeah, after hearing the dialogue from the episode, I deduced that those four characters were subbing for the real Horsemen of Apocalypse. Just thought that his Horsemen would be a bit more interesting in terms of design than just that.

Oh, and I guess Red's theory was at least partially right about Mystique; cause like any other big budget production, they found a plot twist convenience by means of which they were able to bring back the dead to life much like Aescalapius the healer god of the ancient Greek Olympic dynasty.
Thanks again for the help and have a haunted day.

If there is no one there, can I move into 21, I think it looks nicer than my room.

So, about X Men, I was wondering just yesterday, Are their powers magical, or just natral?

Hello Beauregard. Are you sure it's Room #21 you and Sweetums want? Just want to make sure before asking AaronLikesRowlf for the keys and then call him as the bellboy to take your stuff there, with a little bit of help from me as well if I can lend it. Let us know so that we can truly welcome you guys in and mark that room down as taken in the dormhouse's register. As for X-Men, the majority of their powers are unnaturally natural seeing as how they're mutants, but then there's Juggernaut who's specific powers are indeed magically granted to him by the helmet and armor he wears.
Hope this helps, hope you settle in here at the dormhouse, and hope to see you at the Halloween party this weekend.

Mokey, you've outdone yourself with your garden work!
Mokey: "Thank you Eduardo. The black roses were a bit difficult and unruly, but Lanford helped me get them in line and growing here in the gardens outside the dormhouse."
Yes, they look boo-tiful!

Now then, let's go back inside and get changed. We need to go to the local supermarket and buy the stuff we'll need for all of the party's dishes.
Mokey: "Sure thing, Eduardo. Lanford and I will be back in the room in a minute. I'll accompany you to the supermarket and help you pick out the foods we need for the party."
Thank you Mokey, I'll meet you inside then.

Hope all of you other boarders already have your costumes picked out for the weekend-long party, it'll be a frightful time in the old dormhouse indeed!

Their powers are natural. The X-Men, along with the Brotherhood, the Acolytes, the Morlocks and other mutants in that universe, all have an active X-gene that gives them their powers. In that universe all humans have the X-gene; it's just that in most its dormant. In the case of the Juggernaut, there's actually a difference between the Juggernaut of the comics and the '90s animated series and the Juggernaut of X-Men: Evolution. In the comics and first cartoon series, the Juggernaut wasn't a mutant. He instead received his powers from mysterious, magical stone that he found. In X-Men: Evolution the Juggernaut used mysticism to awaken his dormant X-Gene, thus turning him into a mutant.

Red: Hah! He said I was right!

He said you were partially right, Red.

I thought choosing those four as the Horsemen was better than having the Horsemen that Apocolypse had in the comics. It made the fight against Apocolypse that much more personal for the teams since they would be fighting against someone they cared about (although I think Kurt's affections toward Mystique were waning if his treatment of her at the end of the episode was any indication).

Some Evo fans have been complaining that the ending with Rogue absorbing Leech's powers and using them to shut down Apocolypse's base of operations long enough to reseal him was a cop-out. Personally I didn't see any other way for them to go about defeating him, since it was obvious that Apocolypse is most likely the one villain the X-Men can't defeat with just the strength of their powers. What are your thoughts on that?

-Kim

Me:So Rizzo, what are you dressing up as?
Rizzo:A hungry rat.
Me:Isn't that what you are already?
Rizzo:Exactly, that way I don't have to hide my handsome face.
Me: (gagging)
Rizzo:Ha Ha, very funny, so what are you dressing up as smart guy?
Me:I'm going to be Hercule Poirot, one of my favorite detectives. Hey Rizzo, with a little face paint and a change of clothes, you could go as Stuart Little.
Rizzo: (rolls eyes, if that's even possible)For your information, I've already got my costume figured out and it's going to be a surprise. (marches off back into hole)

Well, Sweeetums and I are settling in at the Muppet Bording house...

Me: So, Sweetums what are you going to where to the party?
S: Me going as a big scarey monster.
Me: But, Sweetums, you already are a Big Scarey Monster.
S: *shakes head* You ain't seen nothing yet. I'm a big cute monster, wait till you see my big scarey monster suit.


So, as you can see, things are fine in room 21.

Glad to see that Beauregard (MC) and Sweetums have finally settled in Room #21 on Floor 2 here in the dormhouse. Hey guys, when you get the chance, please post a descript of what your room looks like. Don't forget to include wall hangings if any, floor tileing or carpeting if any, beds, furniture, closets, door/room marker, types of stuff you want in your room, etc. Just give us a tour of what the inside of yourroom looks like, not just for my benefit, but for Scooter (MC) as well who's putting together an artistic rendering of the whole dormhouse over on her website.

Oh yeah, Kyle did you want to talk to me? What did you want to talk about? Is it something concerning the party? Or have I done something wrong? Please let me know and we can try to remedy the situation.
Hope this helps and have a haunted day.
