The Wild West was something Sutai had a hard time grasping. She grew up in Destiny City after moving to America from India when she was just three years old. That was about as west as one could get as far as she was concerned. She never wore anything Western or cowboy and didn't partake in Western movies, but that didn't mean she wasn't interested in it. After her short patrol, Sutai got distracted by the Destiny City 10 theater which had on display several Western film posters outside. She tilted her head and stepped to the side, emulating the poses of the main characters on the posters. She used her telescope as a gun. "Stop right there, ya mangy varmint!" she exclaimed in the corniest accent she could come up with. Sutai giggled and shook her head. "Maybe I could learn a think or two from these things..."

The Wild West wasn't something Navi had ever taken much of an interest in, but being the Senshi of Tumbleweeds, there was an undeniable association there. Not that she payed much attention to it. The Dark Mirror in question was currently patrolling along the streets of Destiny City, though as her mirror wraiths were full, she was more or less wandering. Her quota was filled, so her job for the evening was essentially done, unless she came across a receptive White Moon Senshi she could talk to. There was an order aligned aura not far from where she was currently walking, but by the feel of it she would have guessed Knight, not Senshi. All the same she figured it wouldn't hurt to check it out, and coming to a cross streets, she turned and began making her way towards it. The sight that greeted her when she did come across the Page was an odd one. All crystals and and snowy blues, the girl looked quite out of place with her hands up mimicking guns, calling out some western slang. "Oh I wouldn't put much stock in Hollywood Western stereotypes. They might work in the movies, but I doubt they'd be very effective here."

Sutai squeaked and turned around, startled. The sight that greeted her was perplexing but she was known for having a cheerful and friendly disposition. The young lady was dressed in black with lots of fringe, much like the people in the posters behind Sutai. The page tilted her head for a moment. "Oh, hello there!" she greeted cheerfully. The Western films were forgotten. "I'm Sutai of Polaris! What's you're name?" This lady looked an awful lot like Remarque and Lesath and Aurora, several Dark Mirror senshi she'd met before. Remarque and Aurora were openly friendly (for the most part though Remarque did make her cry), and Lesath was very nice until she gave the page a very stern warning to stay away from Dark Mirrors. Supposedly Dark Mirrors didn't like knights for some reason. Tsui had postulated it had something to do with conversion but... surely they weren't all icky, right? The page took a few steps towards the senshi. "Are you a Dark Mirror too?"

Well this was knew. Navi wasn't at all accustomed to running into incredibly friendly knights. She blinked at the page with slightly widened eyes before a soft smile twitched into place along soft, pink lips. "Good evening," she answered with a small chuckle, black clad arms raising up to cross loosely below her bust. "Nice to meet you, Sutai." It was lucky for Sutai that Navi hadn't run into the page much sooner. A few months prior the Dark Mirror Senshi had carried quite the grudge towards the members of what she still considered a generally useless faction. Her court still couldn't use them, but Navi's anger at the knights as a whole had at least dissipated. Camelot still had a target on his head, but he was a special case. "I'm Navi, Dark Mirror Senshi of Tumbleweeds." Sutai moved closer, and Navi disentangled her arms to extend a hand in greeting. There was always the chance a show of friendliness was a ploy, but she would have bet good money that Sutai wasn't pulling some rouse. She seemed genuinely sweet, open, and honest, and she reminded the red head very forcibly of her own Virtus. "You've met some of our court before?"

"Navi. It's very nice to meet you, Miss Navi." Sutai gave the Dark Mirror a cute little curtsy as well. The Dark Mirror's question had her puzzled. Did they not talk to each other much? Or was her meeting the others not very important? Either way, the page wasn't all that concerned. "Oh, why yes I have." she said, nodded happily. "I've meet Miss Aurora and Miss Lesath and Mister Remarque. They were all very nice to me, especially Aurora! She is quite fun." Sutai giggled, fiddling absently with one of the jewels on her coat. "They said that Dark Mirrors don't like knights but Miss Aurora and Miss Lesath didn't say why." The page tilted her head in confusion. "Miss Lesath and I talked about boyfriends and fun things like that. But I feel like it's my duty to prove knights aren't bad people... but it's hard to do that when I don't know why the Dark Mirrors don't like us to begin with..." She twiddled her thumbs, concerned about her lack of knowledge on the subject.

It wasn't hard to see how Sutai had walked away from numerous encounters with the Dark Mirror Court with such a positive view of them as a whole. If she were anymore innocent, she'd have been glowing. There was no boastful pride, no arrogance, nothing to p***k at the temper at all. "Likewise, Sutai." She was sweet, polite, and down right adorable. "Aurora is quite fun," she agreed, head tilting gently to one side as she regarded the page while she toyed with one of the numerous jewels that decorated her attire. "Though she wouldn't really know why the Dark Mirror Court aren't fans of Knights." It was the most senior among them that would have held the grudge or kept to the stubborn views of Knights being useless. "It's not that you're bad, as a whole, though there are some that I wouldn't care to meet again." As well as some she longed to come face to face with. Camelot still had yet to answer for what he'd done to her. "It's mostly that we can't use you. Knights are not Senshi, and only Senshi can be awakened into the Dark Mirror Court." Once this fact had made Navi very happy, but more and more as of late she considered it a shame. There were a few among the knights she found she didn't mind.

Navi's words struck Sutai as... concerning, especially the use of the word use. Were knights and other senshi just tools? Were they not people as well? Sutai frowned. "If... only senshi can awaken into the Dark Mirror Court then... why are some senshi not like you? Do some awaken into your court and some do not? Because many senshi I have met wear white, whereas you and Miss Lesath and all of them wear black." The Page nodded to herself again, silently cheering herself on in that she had gotten, and kept, her facts straight. Some things were just very confusing! Although... another question pressed to the front of her mind. "Miss Navi?" she asked, tilting her head like a child inquiring something of her mother. "I hope you don't mind me asking but it's a very important topic to me." She cleared her throat and fixed up her skirt with anxiety. "Um.... do you... like your princess, Miss Navi? I love my princess so very much but I get the feeling some of your court don't like yours very much and I think that is a shame. If she is your princess then she should be loved by everyone, don't you think?"

The Dark Mirror Senshi frowned, head tipping to one side as Sutai expressed her concerns of what Navi had just tried to explain. "Not all Senshi began as Dark Mirror Senshi, but they can all be awakened into our court. I think it has something to do with the star seed.." The frown deepened. She wasn't entirely sure how best to make things clearer. "I the Dark Mirror Court is all I've known, but some began with the White Moon, and have decided to join us." Ginger brows quirked, and Navi let out a soft 'hmm?' as the page asked another question. This one was unexpected, and she had to wonder where it might have come from. As far as she knew, no one among their court had any dislike for their queen. Questions, yes, but no ill feelings. "I adore our Queen. She saved me, she gave me a purpose and a new life." Thin shoulders rose and rolled back in a small shrug. "She's very busy, and we don't see her often, but she cares for us." She was remembering the instance in the park where Virtus had been awakened and she herself had been badly injured. It had been Ares that had lifted her into her arms and insisted the girl go to the hospital before their newest ally revealed his healing powers. Again her head tipped, and she took a small step forward. "Why do think some of us feel differently?" Sure there had been a misunderstanding. Of the names mentioned, none seemed the sort to speak ill of their Queen.

Sutai twiddled her thumbs like a child who'd been admonished by her parent. "No, it's not that, it's just..." The Page frowned. How could she explain this? Perhaps the queen was just very busy and her court was so big whereas Polaris just had Sutai. But still. Shouldn't royalty make time for their friends and court members? She sighed. "I just... it feels like some of the Dark Mirrors don't know their queen very well and want to get to know her, that's all!" She took a few, tentative steps forward. "I hope that she makes time to see you more often. I think it's very important and I feel very lucky that I get to see my princess often. I just wish the same for you, that's all." Sutai nodded to herself and absently played with the decorations on her skirt. "I think people who have princesses and queens are very lucky and I only want the very best for everyone." Maybe she could meet Ares one day and tell her how much her court loves and needs her? Maybe then the queen would reconsider her very busy schedule!

A puzzled blink and a soft frown Sutai's words, and she bit back the quick retort to allow the page to listen to what she had to say. There were truth to her words, there was no denying that. Ares was a busy woman, and she seldom had opportunity to leave mirror space to visit among her court, but there was a very good reason for this. "It's not as simple as all that. Our princess is working to rebuild a kingdom, and that is no easy task. She is the keystone. Without her, all of our efforts would be in vain. She is what focus all our hard work into creating the future we are all fighting for." She'd had to think carefully for her answer. To make it clear, but not to give away anything that wasn't already known. The white moon already knew Ares' aims, but her exact methods weren't shared. "She makes time for us when she can, when she knows it's important." Like when Navi had planned and put together a christmas party for the whole of the Dark mirror court the year before. Their queen had surprised them all by attending. She'd even brought home made cupcakes. "I can't tell you everything she's done for us, or for me, but believe me. She does not neglect us, she is there, but she has a dream to build."

Our princess is working to rebuild a kingdom, and that is no easy task.That certainly didn't sound easy, no sir! Sutai blinked and nodded while listening to Navi. All the Dark Mirror Senshi she'd met since first powering up were so very nice to her but Navi was the only one to explain why the faction didn't like Knights. Tsui had said they specifically aimed for and killed knights during some kind of ambush Sutai was very blessed not to attend. Still, the thought made her nervous. Was she lucky in that no one had attacked her yet? Or was she simply being targetted without her knowledge? That really was scary, but Navi seemed nice enough. Touching her cheeks with delicate fingers, Sutai started to bounce on the balls of her feet. "You know, building a kingdom is very tiring work, I bet. If you are able to communicate with her while she is working, perhaps you could take her out to a girls' spa day! That would be lovely!" cried the page, a giant grin appearing on her face. "A princess cannot push herself too hard without taking breaks, you see, and who doesn't like massages and facials? And the boys could treat her to dinner!" Truth be told, Sutai didn't know what the gender breakdown of the Dark Mirror Court was, but it didn't really matter. It seemed like a brilliant idea to Sutai.

For a moment it seemed that Sutai had soaked in her meaning, and she offered a smile to the bright faced girl. Ah, but no. At least not simply so. The knight had grasped the meat of her point, but still.. Navi didn't quite have the heart to argue the point further, so she nodded, smiling sweetly. "She might like that, I'll have to present the idea to her the next time I speak with her." The chances of it happening were slim to nil, but Sutai didn't know that. Sweet as the girl was, she was trying to help. No wonder she had yet to fall under the fight of any within their court. She was just too.. pure. "I hope I've managed to answer some questions." Or at the very last dissuaded the rumors that their queen was a tyrant.. "It's been a pleasure meeting you, and I don't say that about many knights." Lucifer force I hope you don't mind bringing this to an end? =) then we can start new things.
