First there was the fierce gruffness or in Ben's mind 'hey, notice me!' then the grizzled old warrior telling it like it is. Then of course the hesitantly offered choice. An old warrior tends to see more than his share of death. Wolverine had that same look and bearing of many of the older gladiators whose fire was burning out. There was a tiredness to him. Teaching others to be better was a good role for the old warrior. Imparting the harsh lessons he'd learned was a way of protecting people as he slowed down.<br/><br/>"<strong>Yes. I want to be an X Person.</strong>" Ben answered Logan.<br/><br/>"<strong>He is not bad.</strong>" he says honestly. "<strong>He struggles to overcome his great rage and be a hero every day. It's not easy to feed the wolf of peace when you have his temperament.</strong>" He's not answering the exact question she's asking, but the point is there. Ben doesn't introduce himself to Logan. Either he didn't care what was on some piece of paper and all that mattered was the test or he already knew.<br/><br/>It looked like Eric wanted to be the field leader. It didn't bother Ben, he was trying out to be an XMan, not stroke his ego. He would offer advice, call out anyone he thought was overstepping and support his team. Leader was a title to him, nothing more. He smiled at Jean easily, in a big toothy grin. "<strong>You never have to worry around me. I'll always have your back. No harm will come to you or anyone here.</strong>" he agrees. "<strong>May I suggest you telepathically link us all together? Battles are loud and people aren't always facing each other. It would allow us all to communicate and alter plans at the drop of a dime.</strong>"<br/><br/>Eric was sassing Logan. He loved that word, sass. Rogue taught it to him. A new student entered. Ben had only seen him a few times with Eric. "<strong>I think its time to get into the elevator.</strong>" He gestures to Nevan to grab some coffee and pastries quick before they head down.
