Welcome to Gaia! ::

With help from Damocles, she had taken up a martial arts class in her spare time. Even if she didn't do it with her girlfriend, it definitely taught her a few things. She had a bit more stamina now and she actually didn't feel useless on patrol now.

Machholz had had a quiet time of things, recently, not even feeling other senshi in her neighborhood and honestly? She almost preferred it that way. So if she messed up, no one could tell her what she'd done wrong and embarrass her. While she wasn't new at this anymore, she wasn't exactly old either. She was still learning things, and probably always would.

Still, the Senshi of Poison actually found herself a lot less tired when she patrolled. Jumping and running didn't take as much of a toll on her because of her martial arts training, and the fact the winter was longer, which meant she got more time to skate. She was in great shape now! A laugh escaped her as she landed in the center of a roof and did a twirl on one foot before taking off for another, crouching as she landed that. So far she didn't feel anything out of the ordinary near her.

She was just about to turn towards another roof when she heard someone... it sounded like a woman with a really sultry voice. She blinked a little and turned, with a kick of her leg before realizing it wasn't an ally's energy signature, which immediately made her go absolutely rigid. Machholz's eyes locked onto that womanly form (and maybe wandered a bit, can you blame her though?) and swallowed thickly. Great. It... was another Negaverse woman. They seemed to always find her when she was feeling good about herself.

Swallowing a little, one of Machholz's mesh gloved hands pushed through her hair and she cleared her throat, trying to fight the flush from the tone that voice had in it. "It's not that late," she commented, trying to sound as nonchalant as possible. She couldn't automatically assume this one was going to attack her. After all, she met the Dark Mirror Senshi that wouldn't actually hurt her. The talks they had were very nice, so maybe this woman wouldn't be so bad? Maybe?

Her defenses didn't slip though. "It's still quite a reasonable hour."
