Perhaps there were days like these. Days in which nothing happened while patrolling. Lacerta, senshi of Bandages was actually breathing a sigh of relief that for once there was nothing that would send her scurrying hither and thither across the city. This was perhaps not the intended use of her senshi strength. Standing on a rooftop on the edge of the city the senshi had dragged a few golf balls that were in poor condition and her golf driver. There was a certain lightness in her stance as she addressed the ball and swung back her club before completely swinging and missing.
"Damn it! Strike one."
Letting go of the tenseness she was feeling Lacerta once again stepped up to the ball that sat innocuously on the golf tee. "Let's try this again," Lacerta brought the club back in a swing that felt entirely natural and brought the club down in a graceful arc before ball met driver with a sweet-sounding PING. The senshi tried to track where her shot went but lost sight of it shortly. Her gaze returned to the rest of the balls that she had brought along with her and giggled imagining the results of her impromptu golfing practice. It was definitely obvious that as her powered self she had more strength as that first ball had travelled further than it would if she was just Izobel.xxPixie Nyxie I hope this is light enough for a start

After the exciting return from Jordan through mirrorspace, Altais had yet to settle into his newly purchased apartment. While had had been staying with Colin before, and sometimes even Fiona, he wished no longer to trouble the two best people in his life. However he was going to send a text to Fiona for her to come over and help him pick stuff out.
It was his gift from his father because well....his dad didn't care now that his son was living in America. Khaleel would continue his schooling and then running a bit of his fathers business here.
For now though, the shockwave senshi was busy saving the days for little old ladies and cats and stuff like that! He had just gotten a poor little cat out of the tree when he felt the whizzing of a small white ball past his head.
After letting the kitty go, he went to explore the fallen object and picked it up.
"I see!" He held it up to the moonlight and laughed, "What a-" Another one flew by and the senshi blinked, "What.......?!?!"
He started to follow the trail of whizzing white balls, scampering up a building where he felt the aura of another senshi, albeit a weaker then his own. "HEY!"
He waved, holding up at least two or three of her white golf balls. "No holes in one though! If that's what you were trying for!"

Lacerta was just in the process of teeing up to take another shot when a voice shouting at her made her lose her concentration. Lacerta had already started the process of swinging and at the "HEY" that resounded across the space between herself and the shouter Lacerta knew that her shot would be way off the mark. Still there was no way she could abort her shot mid swing and it was a solid thunking sound that met her ears. The ball travelled just a few scant inches off her tee and she turned around rubbing her arms. The impact had hurt but with practice she shook her arms out before resetting the ball onto the tee before gently placing her driver on the ground.
The flare of another member of order was unmistakable but the level seemed higher than hers. Lacerta stared at the small white spheres that the other senshi held up for her to inspect before she laughed. "I guess I need to thank you for fetching those and bringing them back. I wasn't trying for a hole in one though. I wanted to test a theory and I guess I got a little carried away."
Lacerta checked that her driver was still functional before chuckling softly. It was unlikely that she would have gotten a hole in one from where she stood as the closest course was not in this direction, "I didn't hit you did I?"

Altais hopped over to the weirdly dressed senshi, eyeing her attire with a critical eye at first before the grin spread. "Whatcha a senshi of?" Straight to the point. Her took her hand gently and plopped all but one of the balls in her hands.
"Testing strength out yeah? I did that too." He nodded sagely, "But I threw a some stuff. And jumped some buildings." He threw the golf ball he kept high up on the air and then caught it as it fell down.
"Nah, I didn't get hit, I was just helping some people out for a bit!" He nodded again and then threw the golf ball with all of his strength, the small white shape disappearing somewhere in the night sky.
In the long distance a car alarm went off.
"I'm Altais! Senshi of Shockwaves!"

As she watched the stranger approach her Lacerta spared a glance down to the shaft of her driver and then the head of the club. It wouldn't do to be testing out her strength and accidentally damage part of her set. It was a short, relieved, sigh as she could ascertain at the moment that no flaws were present. As the stranger glanced at her outfit and voiced his question about what she was the senshi of Lacerta grimaced. It was obvious, wasn't it? If she was being asked though maybe it wasn't apparent. Grasping the balls that were dropped into her palm the teen bit her lip before replying. "Oh, I'm the senshi of bandages."
As her visitor continued to speak Lacerta nodded along with the suggestion he gave out, "I was testing my strength. I know I'd never be able to golf like this normally but the difference between civilian and senshi is remarkable," Lacerta gazed out as the golf ball that wasn't back in her possession was thrown afar. It was then that she caught the name given. "It's a pleasure to meet you Altais of Shockwaves. My senshi name is Lacerta."
As the car alarm continued to go off in the distance Lacerta glanced to her equipment and shrugged. At least the ball had been ratty looking. Her gaze took in Altais before she posed a question that was bugging her, "you give off a sense of more power to me. Do senshi have different ranks?"
If there was any doubt that Lacerta was still floundering about by herself seeking answers, this would have been a good sign.
Pixie Nyxie So Lacerta hasn't really been shown the ropes at all by the cat that awoke her and hasn't had any powered encounters with many other senshi. She's learning ... slowly

Altais didn't think it was too obvious but that's cause senshi outfits all seemed so different like....who would've guessed he was Shockwaves?
"Nice! That's an interesting one. Are you like Medic? Medical senshi? Healing powers?" He moved around her, exploring her set up and being generally nosy senshi.
"Nice to meet you Lacerta! Welcome to senshi world and stuff! It's kind of fun yeah?" Altais grinned and tucked his hands into the oversized coat he wore.
"Oh yeah! We have different strength levels! The stronger you are, the more you get up in the power!" He cocked his head, "Theres basic senshi like you, Super senshi like me, Eternal senshi, they have like little wings on their butts AND Royal senshi!" He waited, "I've only seen like two royal senshi though. Some lady and some dude named Castor. My cousin is a Eternal senshi though!" Aegir // Colin was the only Eternal senshi that Altais knew.

Normally she would have wanted a less, exuberant explanation but she was finally getting some information about what she was that Lacerta could not bring herself to admonish Altais. She found his enthusiasm rather catching and soon was grinning in response to his questions. Mostly being considerate Lacerta gently plucked at one of her bandages before making a simple nod.
"That I know of, I am a healer. I mean I think I am. That's what Mel said I was. I helped heal a cut he got while helping me fight my first youma. He was the one that awoke me."
The idea of having shockwaves as one's power seemed intriguing. Blinking a few times she was almost about to ask about what sort of power Altais had before tilting her head at his continued explanations. So there were four different stages one could go through? Now that there was conversation Lacerta began to relax a little. The teen thought for a moment before sitting down with her back against the ledge of the building. Her eyes remained locked on Altais before she quietly put forth a question, "are those that awaken us supposed to guide us?"

He jumped around in his spot, as Altais wasn't the type to sit around as much. He liked to move and loved to exert as much energy as he could while he did so.
"Healing is good powers!" He nodded, "Healing is what keeps us going, I kind of wish I had that but...I'll settle for being all BOOM-" He clapped his hands, grinning, "for now!"
Her question cocked his head in response as he had always had older senshi to rely on. Denebola came to mind, as well as Aegir. Corvus and even the knight Celsus had some moments too, but those two had been long MIA since their attack on rift space.
"Senshi are suppose to be on teams!" He frowned, "But not all of us our, so it doesn't always happen like that. Awoken senshi do their best I think, cause you don't wanna not help friends.....But cats are actually suppose to give you all the knowledge!" He waited, "You know any of the Guardian Cats, Lacy!
" Did he just shorten her name, yes he did.

Lacy? Seriously Lacy? The redhead stared at Altais before shaking her head. If he wanted to give her a nickname well so be it. She wasn't going to complain in the least. It showed that perhaps she wasn't as much as a lost cause as she thought she was, didn't it? If someone took the time to give her a nickname it meant that at least someone had singled her out as special. Although it could just be Altais' way of things but Lacerta, for the moment, felt accepted amongst someone that was higher than her in rank.
Altais certainly was exuberant though. The amount of energy he was putting off made her wonder if large amounts of sugar were involved at all before dismissing the thought. Bringing her legs to curl underneath her the redheaded senshi of bandages watched Altais before sighing. "I didn't know senshi were supposed to be on teams honestly. It was never brought up. I think it's cool that I can heal but I have no real idea on what to do now."
She sighed before adding quietly, "the only cat I've met was the one that awoke me to this life and now has seemingly abandoned me to fend for my own."
She wasn't looking for pity at all though as she brought her gaze to bear on the Shockwave senshi. She just needed direction, a sense of purpose, and then maybe she'd be able to figure out what needed to be done next.

Sugar was never involved with Altais. In fact he wasn't a big fan. If you asked, he'd be like ewww. bleh.
Instead he was staring at her intently for her reply, curious as to what she would say. "I mean you don't have to be teams but I think it's safer and better! Cause you know, teams are a good thing!" He nodded, "Teams can have a lot of power together cause its people you think of as family and thats strong stuff."
He blinked and then sighed, "Oh yeah, sometimes that happens you know? They are so busy fending for themselves and stuff. Maybe we can find a cat together?" maybe he could find his friend again.
"But I think somethings are better learnt as you go! If you have someone telling you what to do, then that's boring." He looked over at her, "What do you wanna do as a senshi Lucy? Do you wanna do it all on your own and stuff? Do you wanna join a team? Do you want to be a senshi?"

This team thing sounded interesting if only just for the fact that others could watch out for her. Shaking herself out of her musing Lacerta noticed that Altais was staring intently at her. It was a little disconcerting but she shrugged off the sensation. Instead she went over what he had been telling her and she gave a thoughtful pause. "Being on a team would probably help I guess because I could learn what needs to be done and help those around me but at the same time I feel like I'd have to be, I don't know, out of sight until needed. I can't really fight. All I can do is heal."
Rising to her feet Lacerta went back to her clubs and checked over her driver for damage before glancing out at the city that was her home. "I want to protect my home from evil. I don't think I can do it on my own though."
At the last question posed she had to pause. Did she want to be a senshi? Well she'd love it if things had been able to stay normal. Without anyone to guide her she felt lost. Even random encounters seemed fraught with uncertainty ... and yet, there was a spark of, well, defiance that she didn't want to push away the thing that made her life more interesting. Picking up a golf ball Lacerta teed up and smacked the ball with the driver. "I am pretty sure had I been asked that before that I would have said 'no,' but now I think something has changed just enough that I don't mind the downside of things that want to seemingly kill me."

"Healing fighters is very nesscary!"
Altais waited a second. "You need a team then! You should find one!" he put his chin in his hand.
"I like being a senshi. A super power! We do good, even if we do bad." Altais smiled, "Do you have other questions?"

Did she have anymore questions? Well she did but she'd try and ask another senshi on a different day. She had a good information exchange with Altais and she didn't want to monopolize his time if there were other things that he had to go and do. It was always better in her eyes at least to have information parceled out bit by bit. By doing it that way she wouldn't get too overloaded with pertinent data.
Her gaze found Altais and she gently shook her head in the negative. "I think I'm all questioned out for now," but then she paused. Maybe having Altais as a contact for future inquiries would be a good thing. "Wait, is there a way I can reach out to you or others if I have more questions?"
Lacerta stretched and waited before going over what Altais had said before. It puzzled her but she'd stow the query she had on the statement away.

"Yeah there is definitely a way!" Altais smiled as he pulled out his phone, "See these! These are our senshi phones! you can summon them from subspace annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd-" He opened the camera, taking a picture of Lacerta.
"Now I got you as a contact!" He showed her, as her information popped up in the contact information.
"Go ahead! Take a picture!" Khaleel started to do a bunch of poses for her.

So it was as simple as taking a picture with their phones? Lacerta didn't even realize that her picture had already been taken by Altais as she summoned her own phone. It seemed as if thought alone had some bearing on how this subspace worked. Chuckling at some of the poses that Altais was displaying Lacerta quickly snapped a picture of the Shockwave senshi and was impressed as the phone automatically stored the information for her.
"Go figure. That's really neat."
Watching the skyline for a quiet moment Lacerta took in the peaceful evening before fetching her golf club. Her driver had made it through the impromptu experiment more in less intact and she was grateful. It was always hard to replace her equipment when she got carried away. Picking up the random golf balls that still occupied the roof Lacerta glanced around before tossing one to Altais. "Hey, thanks for everything Altais. I enjoyed the company and the chat. It was nice meeting you. Also thank you for your patience with my questions."
Knowing that Altais could contact her and she him if something came up Lacerta made her way to the nearest side of the roof that she occupied and jumped down to the adjacent rooftop. She had a lot of things to go over in her mind.
Pixie Nyxie okay, gonna call it finished on Lacerta's end. Thank you
