@Jays
I'm splitting off into another thread since we've got a lot going on, and it'll be way easier for me to keep track of with a separate thread. xD
Here's what we got so far (copy-pasted because I'm too lazy to summarize)...
Original plots being mashed together:
Mutants / Running from the government / Rebellion
Rebel against the Rebellion [fantasy]
My response blurb
So I think we have, so far ...
Muse A: Working for the government catching mutants. Along the way, accidentally or somehow develops mutant powers of their own. Whuuups. Now what?
Muse B: A double agent working for the government but actually working for the Rebellion. Watches as new leadership takes over the Rebellion and doesn't exactly see eye-to-eye with them. Whuuups. Now what?
I think we can totally throw in some Teethclenched Teamwork, especially if we explore the whole new mutant leader thing before Muse A discovers their powers or figures out what to do with that nonsense. Or maybe they try to work with other govvie types. xD
Do you lean toward Muse A or Muse B? (<-- This is me not being helpful again. xD I could probably have stronger opinions.)

Muse A has been working for the government catching mutants. They've been hot on Muse B's tail and are closing in fast. But what happens when Muse A develops mutant powers of their own?
Alternative ideas. Muse C is a mutant that has infiltrated the government's ranks. Muse A has done a good job busting previous hidden operatives in the branch, and Muse C has seen a lot of their friends locked up by Muse A. They've been working together (well, really Muse C has been helping Muse B stay ahead of the game) when the developments above happen.

Rebel against the Rebellion [fantasy]
For as long as you can remember, your kind, mages, have been oppressed. Magic is rooted out and destroyed. You and those like you live in fear. For years, there has been a rebellion brewing, and you do your part. The rebellion stands for a world where mages and non-mages can live together in peace, where those talented with magic are seen no different from someone talented at sports. Finally, just when things are falling into place, the major leaders of the rebellion fall, one by one, until the one who claims the lead has a vision not nearly so in line with the future you saw. This new leader believes that mages are superior, that mages ought not only take their place in society, but ought to rule it, but to this, you cannot agree.
This could be medieval or modern.
Your mashupThis could be medieval or modern.
Personally I'm thinking of a mash up between Mutants and a modern setting Rebel against the Rebellion, and we can cram superhero theme in there somewhere, maybe (although I'm yet to see how).
Might go something like this (?): Muse A and Muse B moves in together, but secretly Muse B's a mutant brainwashed from an early age working for the government catching mutants and suspected Muse A might be a rogue (or, ya know, neither of them realize who the other is and it's Mr. and Mrs. Smith kind of scenario). At the same time, the a new Mutant Leader rose through the rank of a mutant rebellion who believes their kind to be superior (basically the Rebel pitch but replacing mage with mutant). Through some sort of twisted espionage plot, Muse A's burned by his/her government and Muse B's...idk, disowned by the community led by the new leader or something, and the two previous enemies have to work together to stop a plot by the new leader to bring about a world ruled by mutant kind (the more I wrote the more it sounds like a trash thriller novel lol). With some wiggling we can include the 2 tropes as well, if Muse B is some sort of anti-intelligence for the Rebellion.
It's just an idea, I'm open to anything, and if you can someone work the other plots in as well (I can't see how right now) then I'm all for it. Tell me what you think <3.

I do think it could be really interesting if Muse B were working for the government but actually a double agent secretly working for the rebellion, and when the new mutant leader rises, tries to convince Muse A to go after this new leader (who maybe Muse A originally thinks is a nameless nobody 'cause they've never heard of this person before, and they've been after the organization for quite a while). And we can keep Muse A as a hotshot mutant hunter whose powers developed late.
Definitely do think we can weave in Muse A getting burned by their government, and Muse B getting disowned by the community. ^_^
