Usually fishing involved trying very hard to stay in one spot so that anyone picking up on the massive energy leak could easily tack it to its source. Not a good tactic for most on patrol, who did not want to be found by half of Destiny City, but ideal for Zirconia who wanted to be found by anyone and everyone. Assuming they weren't going to slaughter her.
Tonight it was more difficult, though, and she found herself torn between the urge to pursue the blips on her radar and follow the fishing rules. When she felt the aura of a page nearby.
The cat-lady crept off her perch, posturing some sort of stealth as if that were possible with her flashy dress and cat ears and massive aura, but there it was. And she was off in pursuit.
"Hello?" She called out, deciding to cut down on time aura pin-pointing. "Is anyone out there?"

The crystal she'd found had been hiding behind her nightstand of all things. She noticed it one night while getting ready for bed. It pulsed slowly behind the piece of furniture, in such a way she couldn't fathom how she'd missed the damn thing. Then Andronicus remembered she'd been plagued by nightmares and insomnia for a month and a half and it made much more sense why she hadn't noticed it. Or much of anything else for that matter.
She was doing better. She slept through the night, she was able to take up dance again. Her work performance increased. Hell, the young woman even went out on patrol again. Not as often as before, but three times a week she combed the rooftops for Chaos and civilians who needed help. If there was anything she'd learned from trying to parse through the memories of the future, it was that the civilians took the hardest hit in all of it. They were recruited in forcefully, killed as examples for the White Moon, and all around terrorized. She wanted to prevent that as much as possible.
This night, however, was not a patrol. She'd heard about someone collecting crystal shards, like the one she'd found in her bedroom. It was a large signature she was looking for, who was an odd mix of cat and human. She felt it and walked towards it. It then called out to her, a very female voice, and Andronicus walked around a tree.
"Are you the one asking for the crystal shards?" she asked, holding up the shard in her fingers. The cat-lady was a little off putting, but she was probably just a guardian cat in human form. She'd seen it before so. Shrug.

Her bare feet stopped abruptly in the grass, and her eyes brightened noticeably once she came across the knight. A new face to be documented.
"You're my second Uranus knight," Was the first thing she said. And then she realized she should probably answer the question and introduce herself if she hoped to get anywhere. As much as she would have enjoyed circling the knight like a vulture and oogling her shamelessly, that was not the way to make progress and would probably just scare her away.
"Yes! That's me! My name is Zirconia, royal guardian cat of the Black Moon Court and its Queen Nehelenia. I'm seeking shards of the damaged Pyrite crystal."
She leaned just a little bit too close and seemed just a tad too happy to see Andronicus. As if her night had been made by this new discovery here for inspection. "Can I take your photo? Please? I won't use it for anything bad, I just like to keep track of knights. That's an interesting hood..." He hand moved like she wanted to reach for it, and was overcome with the good sense not to.

Andronicus blinked at her. Technically she was a page but if the cat-lady wanted to think she was a knight, then more power to her. The woman was a little strange, and either didn't know what knights were or wanted to know too much about them. Neither of which sat particularly well with the Uranus knight to be frank. Usually those who took an invested interest in a knight wanted to corrupt them. Or worse.
Her eye brow went up at the mention of the Black Moon Court and its Queen. The cat-lady leaned in, and Andronicus leaned back a tad, unsure of what to do with this one.
"Black Moon Court? Never heard of them," she eyed Zirconia warily for a moment. "I'd say yes but I have no idea if you're Chaos or Order. Your aura is weird. I like my hood. It's a nice hood. Very Assassin's Creedy."
Well that was one way to say it, she guessed. Ever the blunt one.

Zirconia spoke a mysterious language and in her world, leaning back was an invitation to hover. And that's totally what she did.
After a moment, she did decide to give both of their postures a break and stood up straight again, rolling her shoulders in both an attempt to stretch and get warm. Her dress wasn't exactly wonderful winter wear.
"Aw, are you a new page?" She responded to the blunt statement about her court with measured condescension masquerading poorly as concern. Quiet vengeance for a perceived insult. "Well I'm not Chaos, obviously. You should be able to feel that much."
She pointed both index fingers to the deep purple crescent moon on her forehead. "I am a moon cat, obviously." What's an assassin creedy?"
