It soon became apparent that James wasn’t going alone and while it meant that Newman was down more people, it also meant that James had a higher chance of surviving out there. She thought… for a moment, that she might have gone as well. But she had responsibilities here, and she needed to be here… needed to learn. So that she could do good, in the world, when she was needed. She waited until James was free, holding the gear she had collected for him, and now his companions as well. She just hoped it would give them an advantage, that it would help them survive. She knew, reasonably, that there had to be other communities, other safe places out there that they could take refuge in… but that didn’t do anything to ease the worry she felt. It wasn’t a scavenging party. It wasn’t just going outside the walls to deal with a few things. It was leaving, for good. Niesha hated goodbyes. She hated the feeling of waiting, the feeling of not knowing if she’d ever see someone again. She loathed it. She sighed softly, and approached James. He’d been there on one of the hardest days of her life. When she’d had to take the life of the teenager… She couldn’t even think their name, it hurt. He’d seemed a sort of… steadiness, to the choas in the world. How did you say goodbye to someone who was a rock in the community? She stopped when she got close, [color=yellow]”Just some medical supplies and things. I wrote a few quick notes for the herbs and how to make the simple meds out of them”[/color] she said softly, meeting James’s gaze, before holding it out, [color=yellow]”Goodbyes suck, and I’ve never been good at them. But stay safe… and… you’ll be missed… “[/color] She stepped back, glancing away once more, before stepping back. Goodbyes really did suck. She stepped around Jack as he went to say his goodbyes to James, keeping her gaze down. Now unburdened from the gear, Niesha felt a little foolish, and she sighed once more.
