{{Poses
|Poses=:'''{{#var:588|Negasonic (588)}} has posed:'''<br>When she first heard James Proudstar was missing, Ellie didn't make much of it, people wanted to disappear every now and again. But when it's been awhile, she started to wonder if it might be some humans, inspired by one Sen. Kelly, who decided to start enslaving mutants. So she put on a detective hat (not really), and pikced up her phone for some online investigation. Before long she found a picture to give a vicinity, and so she went over to snoop about, walk the area and see if she might bump into James.<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:766|James Proudstar (766)}} has posed:'''<br>Asking around and showing the picture, she's directed down to a man called Savage and to one of the smaller squares in he heart of mutant town. James is easy to find, handing out food in what can only be described as a refugee camp. James is wearing a green poncho type garment over his clothes there's a number of other dressed similarly mixed through out the crowd. He catches Negasonic's eyes and nods towards a place where they can speak.<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:588|Negasonic (588)}} has posed:'''<br>Before Ellie even greets, her phone is held up as she snaps a pic of James, before heading directly towards him, only altering course when he signals to her. She can dig that much. She heads over to the more secluded corner, and looks at James with concern, "so...Savage, huh? Anybody making you do this?"<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:766|James Proudstar (766)}} has posed:'''<br>James smiles, and nods, he has a stick and he's leaning on it. "Not directly, Olly Olly Oxen free. " James looks tired and that in itself is a bit disturbing, he never looks tired, not once. He sighs, "You are not who I expected to see." He smiles, "Yeah, there was a scene at movie night. It wasn't on me, and I left. I came here and... These people need help, Ellie. Help I can give, I've been trying to get them oragnized, spread the food out, get as much medical treatment as we can and help them protect themselves."<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:588|Negasonic (588)}} has posed:'''<br>"Well, to be fair, nobody ever expects me," Ellie says with a grin on her face, she does look relieved once James relays what's up with him. "So you came out here on your own, nobody forced you? That's good, I was worried...I figure maybe others are worried too, unless you don't care if they are?"<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:766|James Proudstar (766)}} has posed:'''<br>James Proudstar grins and chuckles, "That is not a bad thing, we're the one's who get the work done." He rubs his eyes and considers, "How long has it been, I'm tired so at least four days? Forced is a tricky term, Ellie. I stayed of my own free will. I am here because I think I can do the most good and I am still trying to figure out how to deal with things." He pauses and you can see the struggle he wants to be angry but he can't they are his family. He takes a long calming breath, "Maybe, yeah. There's a few, also a few I don't quite give a fig." He stops and turns to face you, "I'm sorry, thank you for being worried. Yes, let them know, but I'm not sure when I'll be back. OKay, how are you?<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:588|Negasonic (588)}} has posed:'''<br>Ellie gives James a thumbs up, "I guess, where I'm coming from, it's all about your choice. If you choose this, awesome. If I didn't, I may have a word or explosion with the guy or people forcing you, because fuck them."<br><br>She nods as James shares his take, "I'll let them know just so they won't worry, okay?" She says while giving James a friendly jab in his shoulder. "Me? I'm fine, I'm alive, I'm not in Genosha, and I'm not a slave..."<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:766|James Proudstar (766)}} has posed:'''<br>James Proudstar smiles, and there is the glint of something hard, "Yeah, I may take you up on that."<br><br>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;"Thank you, that would be kind." He takes the jab about like any other rock would, he nods, "That is an excellent place to start."<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:588|Negasonic (588)}} has posed:'''<br>"Well...I guess I appreciate you helping others, that's noble," Ellie notes, looking a bit uncomfortable for a moment, before shrugging, "well, I'll let you get back to it. I just wanted to know you're fine."<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:766|James Proudstar (766)}} has posed:'''<br>James Proudstar laughs and nods, "Thanks, you hungry? There's food left. Honestly, it's not half bad."<br> <br>

:'''{{#var:588|Negasonic (588)}} has posed:'''<br>"I'm good, I just wanted to know that you're okay...take care of yourself, James, and if you need help, feel free to reach me. That's @AtomicPinCushion online," she winks, and then turns to leave.<br> <br>
