Josh & Maverick (test scene)
“Joshua?”
Josh froze in place. He was half way out of the window and was obviously planning to run away from the organization. After hearing the slight buzzing coming from Maverick's robotic arm and legs, Josh knew he was in the room with him.
“Joshua.” Maverick had spoke again, but this time he was right behind him. “Turn around…slowly.”
Josh stepped back into the room and closed the window. Just as he was asked, he turned around very slowly, until finally he made eye contact with the cyborg. “Maverick…” Josh greeted, his voice laced with irritation.
Maverick’s eyes narrowed. “You cannot leave. This is why Quinn—“
“Don’t talk to me about Quinncy boy,” Josh fired back in a mocking tone. That name just sent fire through his head and it angered him. Even after Josh made it clear he wanted nothing to do with Xavier's new partner, Maverick still brought his name up anyways. It burned his head to have to hear it so many times.
Then there was a pause. Maverick had his mouth open to reply. He even made a little noise, but he soon realized whatever he was going to say, it was gone and probably would have only made Josh more angry.
The stand-off continued. Josh stared at Maverick, almost studying his face since they were being extremely quiet now.
With a single cough from Maverick, the silence broke. Maverick cleared his throat and tried to go back to being serious. “Why are you trying to leave?”
Josh thought he had the answer. He thought it was obvious. Ever since he was brought to this place and had his tracking chip removed from his arm, he expressed his unease. He would always have complained about not getting enough attention or that the attention he did receive wasn't good enough. Now that someone asked out loud why he so desperately wanted to leave, he was puzzled. He didn’t know what to reply with. “I...I hate it here,” was all that left his mouth.
“Why?” Maverick questioned.
“I don’t belong...”
“Why?”
“I just don’t!” Josh yelled. He tried to step away from Maverick, but he bumped his back against the wall with the window. "I'm not like Xavier, alright? I just don't fit in with good people."
Maverick’s eyes seemed to glisten. Using his power, he could sense the pain Josh was feeling. It felt like such a heavy weight surrounding him. A burden. "I know you're not like him...I'm just trying to understand you."
Josh dropped his gaze, suddenly feeling ashamed at his own outburst. Somehow it felt wrong this time. "Then don't try..."
