Description Tensions settled as Amy roamed the former school she called home so long ago. It was clear the x-men didn't fully trust her. Logan had caught up with her, attempted to offer her a spot in the x-men. An offer that was promptly declined. Amy had no intention on throwing away the life she was living in peace among humans to fighting off the MRD and rouge mutants full time.

"Some of us just want to live a good life Logan. I'm perfectly content where I am. Away from all this."

"You mean you're perfectly content on being a coward? Some of us can't blend in. Some of us can't live normally, and with those sentinels sensing mutant DNA on sight, no one can live normally. Not even you. How do expect to keep running away from your problems?"

"Let's get one thing straight here Logan, I am not going to stand here and get lectured by a revolving door of a man who can't commit to anything. You barely hold this team together with your reckless tactics. How you stepped up to lead, I may never know. You think you can win fighting every day? What happens if the MRD does finally dispatch. I've seen the news. Do you think every mutant taken in is just an innocent civilian? Some mutants are dangerous. Some mutants are asking for trouble. So how do you think it makes mutants look when those dangerous mutants are let back onto the street and continue rampaging the city?"

"You've got it all wrong Gyro. That's what Senator Kelly wants you to believe. He doesn't care for mutants just trying to make it. No mutant should be living in a cage." Amy sighed. It was all just too much to bare. She made her place in the world. She made her choice.

"Forget it Logan. The war of mutants is simple. No body will ever use me like a weapon again. The ends don't justify the means. We're not revolutionists. We will only bring more suffering. A raging war isn't worth the sacrifice when it can be prevented." From there Amy turned her back and headed towards the door.
"You're on your own. And don't call me Gyro."


Writing for Amy is weird.
Trying to write for someone ideologically/politically different from yourself and make them sound reasonable is difficult. A mutant centrist. Agh man.

The lighting is a little off, but it's not that big of a deal.
You can see it...kinda. Hidden from her hair, but I thought I'd incorporate Gyro's head piece for once. Basically it's a non metallic tiara, thanks to a lining of silver, that was created to successfully resist and repel telepathic attacks. Amy wears it quite often, even when she sleeps. She never liked telepaths snooping in her head

ahhh it's so great to see a centrist! I have a few X-Men characters myself(that haven't seen the light of day in ages) and a couple of them are neutral figures in the war scenario.

I love seeing every argument of a situation, and you did a good job!

Aw thanks~ ^^

I'm really trying. It's kinda branching for in, as it's kinda difficult to write a centrist views to sound rational in a universe kinda black and white as the x-men. At least in the x-men content I have seen. Magneto has good points, but writers of a lot of child center context (meaning cartoons) make it clear who you should be rooting for.

Still, I like even though it's rationally neutral I have and do write Ashley as kinda of a coward, and whether she's helping mutants or helping humans, the reasons are pretty selfish.

She looks after herself.

I absolutely agree with you. It is hard for me to write Sunny without being too one sided. :/

Yeah! Not to get too political, in the x-men universe humans in power are clearly the aggressors against mutants. The main theme of x-men is the large spanning intolerance to mutants of any kind. If I was in that situation, I would be totally against the human population as a whole. Magneto is portrayed as an extremest on the opposite side, however civil rights and revolutions were not won by peaceful protests. Human society has proven a peaceful opposition will lead to violence.

Huge moving points with Ashley all stem from personal relationships rather than an ending goal. For example, I like to write an on again off again romance with quicksilver. Like Magneto he is adamantly for the mutant superiority and that pretty much broke apart their relationship. Not only that, but Ashley knows Magneto cares little for mutants if he doesn't see them as useful to his goal, therefor Ashley never felt like a person, but a weapon. I haven't written or drawn anything about it however I also have this idea that Ashley, while living as her alias among humans, falls in love with a man and has a son with him. He is human, so she is against the anti-human rhetoric.

Sorry I kinda rambled there. ^^

Aww thank you~ ^^

It's not great. I mean, consistency was never my strong suit, so having to do that in tone with a different style went about as well as you'd expect.
