The long travel had been quite exhausting for the man, whose arm had been getting steadily worse this past week. And so, he'd decided to head out to Northstar for a short visit, in order to use their clinic. Arm in a sling, he pulled his horse to a stop, thankful that the jarring trip was over.
Mike grunted quietly, as he dismounted, the motion hurt so much that he felt a wave of nausea pass over his stomach. The man shivered, god he definitely needed to get the infected bullet wound taken care of.
The man leaned against the horse for a moment, patting the horses rump, then he made his way closer to the village, hopefully nobody would mistake him for an intruder, and decided to shoot him. He knew Luce and Addy would recognize him, though he wasn't sure if that was a great thing or not.

— he gazed over towards the man coming closer towards the district, blinking slowly. jesus christ. was there some sort of “badlander repellent” that pushed more badlanders to head out of their territory and make their way to northstar? it was probably a bad joke to make even to himself, though addy was starting to lose track of all the familiar faces that made their way over here. he came at a time when it was tough to be accepted into this place because of the badlands’ bad reputation here at northstar - hell, the only reason they even got accepted so easily was because lucerne had a friend (who would’ve thought, honestly?) to speak up for him. times were changing, though, and people in northstar were slowly getting back to good terms with badlanders visiting. slowly but surely.
if mike thought for some reason he was going to get shot, perhaps he didn’t know about the nonviolent approach northstar had - addy felt almost bummed out about it too, at times. he decided to finally make his way over towards the new visitor, piping up, “jesus, mike. what did you get yourself into this time?” condescending little shit. the redhead looked towards the sling and back towards the man. and the realization. “you're here for the clinic?”

Mike raised an eyebrow as he spotted Addie, the lad hadn't changed all that much in the months he'd been at this place. Well, appearance-wise. he had no clue how Addie's personality had fared in this nonviolent place, not that he was knocking peace, he liked peace, in moderation. Sometimes things had to be fought for.
The man closed his eyes briefly, god, his shoulder was not doing so hot. "Should see t'other guy Red. He's doing a mite worse." Well, more than a mite, the other guy in this case being dead. He didn't feel like explaining someone's vendetta against him, or the fact his son was caught in its crossfire and had died.
Poor kid, Will hadn't even turned 20 yet, and had been brutally murdered. It was a depressing thought. Thankfully his secret admirer had left him be during his journey to Northstar. "That'd be a correct assumption, though I'm also here to discuss a few things with that leader o' yours. Chartreuse... sommut."
Mike sighed, swallowing back the pain that came from his arm. He'd successfully ignored the injury for a while, at least the pain from it. He had tried his best to take care of it, but it seemed he hadn't gotten all the bullet out, or some bacteria had gotten into it and infected it, because it was not doing well. Puffy red skin around the injury, a yellow discoloration as well. Nope, it wasn't all peaches and cream.
"How's life been treat'n ya?" He changed the subject cheerily as he could, despite the greenish hue that was beginning to grow on his face. He didn't feel all that well, part of him wanted to sit, or lie down right there, but that wouldn't do. Wouldn't do at all, he'd stand until someone told him to sit, preferably someone who knew what they were talking about in regards to medicine.

Honestly, nowadays Green didn’t quite know who was a Badlander and who wasn’t. A year could change a lot. Once under Catalyst’s rule, Green could recognize quite a few faces of people Green would view as his foes. Badlanders were simply bad news around these parts, he’d come to agree upon. But, as months went by, his strict hatred began to admittedly dissipate once he began to meet Badlanders individually. Paige - of course - Addy, Lucerne, Sheogorath… Had Green found himself growing fond of those who’d once been his sworn enemies? Perhaps he was, and they were actually really good people.
Huh. It was funny how things had changed.
Green could not greet him by name, but he was pretty certain that this was a Badlander. He’d seen the older man around pretty frequently, but never quite caught his name before. Green was somewhat wary - unaware that he was the new leader of the Badlands. Did Salem send him here? Eyes flitted over the man’s injuries, arm in a sling, before realizing that that was probably the reason for him being here.
Slowly, Green wandered over, hesitant smile on his lips, before stopping beside Addy. ❝ Is everything all right? ❞ He asked, but otherwise said nothing else. After all, it seemed as if Addy and the Badlander were catching up.

Mike had been keeping an eye on the movements outside of Addy's. Call it suspicious, but he didn't trust most people anymore, and his coming in peace with an injury could lead to an all out confrontation, wars had started over less. The man grunted as he straightened his shoulders, standing a touch taller than before. Why? Force of habit.
He watched Green approach, and listened silently to his query. "You must be Green then..." Mike muttered, "Odd name, never met a man by the name of a color before..." He mused aloud. Adjusting his arm so the pain wasn't quite as noticeable. "I'm here for Lucerne. Cantankerous bastard, but he knows how to properly apply medicine."
Was that an insult or a praise? Honestly, Mike wasn't sure either. "I also had some stuff I wanted to discuss with you about the Badlands. Salem up and left, leaving us in a lurch, and as the highest ranking officer I was saddled with the responsibility of running tha joint." Seemed like a pretty straight forward telling of what had happened. In truth, Mike had no clue why Salem had left, the man had openly vied for Cat's position, driven the previous boss out, took over, then left.
Seemed... odd. Fishy even. "T'names Mike. Mike Ford." He added, realizing it was probably a good idea to introduce himself.

❝ You must be Green then... ❞ Green tipped his chin up curiously at the mention of his name, listening intently as the man then continued. ❝ It’s my surname. ❞ Green decided to offer, lips twitching into a small yet amicable enough smile. He wasn’t sure whether to feel glad that his name was one to muse over or taken aback that it was deemed an ❛ odd ❜ name. Well, if only he knew Green’s first name - then he’d truly know what an odd given name was.
Eyes shifted across the man’s features, silently noting the arm he seemed to keep close to him - he wondered how he managed to injure his arm. He knew Addy and Lucerne - this person must have been a Badlander, just as Green anticipated. ❝ I believe you’ve come to the right place then. ❞ He nodded, then adding, ❝ I think he’s actually at the clinic now - is that right, Addy? - so we can take you right over. ❞
Green took a step back, as if to urge everyone to come walk with him to the clinic. As he began walking, the Badlander began to give news of the change of leadership. Green raised his brows thoughtfully; so this was the new Badlands leader. Honestly, a relief from the unnerving Salem. Despite Green’s initial hesitation upon introduction, this man didn’t seem half as untrustworthy as Salem seemed. ❝ Huh. That’s a surprise to hear. ❞ Green decided to comment, pursing his lips in thought before looking back at Mike. ❝ Well, Mike; it’s good to finally meet you. Let’s get this arm sorted out for you now, then. What happened?... If you don’t mind me asking. ❞

Michael closed his eyes for a brief moment. Something to keep him upright, centering himself. The dark haired man looked at Green curiously as the man spoke. There were things which he could glean from Green's reactions, and the way he spoke. Mike wasn't the best at reading people, nothing like Kenny had been, but Kenny was dead, and that was fine by him. He'd sniped for Brian, killing one of Brian's soldiers rather than let Brian's plans be spilled.
Hell Kenny might have had a kill order on him before he tackled him out that second story window. Damn that had really hurt, but he'd walked it off. This infection however, it wouldn't go away, he'd tried everything he could think of. "Knew a Frank Green once... he was an interesting fella." Mike offered in response, though this Frank Green was more than certainly not related to Greenie, after all it was a pretty common sirname.
The broad shouldered soldier followed after Green quietly, his steps surprisingly quiet for a man of his build. "How is old cheeseman anyways?" Mike asked, changing the subject bluntly, walking behind Green. As the man looked back at him and shrugged, wincing in pain as he did so. Damn that hurt.
"Nice ta meet you too, officially." He responded in turn, nodding his head politely. "I don't mind telling you. I was shot in the shoulder by a friend of a friend... guy's a bit unhinged. Killed my son. Now he wants me dead too." And there it was, he'd let slip the suspicions that he'd had for months now since Will's body had washed up.
