And stretch. One leg, then the other. Up on the bar, and bend, and- oh s**t, ow. Pythia was too old for this exercise s**t, even as Imbrium, yet here she was, shaking out arms and legs and warming herself up. Ever since the night with the spiders, she had realized how out of shape she was; yet since that one terrible night that she had seen a freaking ghost, or something, she had not once left her house alone after dark as Pythia. Out her window, perhaps, or moving towards home as part of the horde from school, but it was too soon. Too soon.
Instead, she made her way out and about trying her weight loss regimen as Imbrium, Page of blah blah blah. She'd heard tell that her liege or whatever he was lurked the night not unlike a youma, but apart from Lacedaemon she'd met neither another Castor knight, nor the prince himself. Oh, she could probably seek him out if she was so inclined, but what use would he have for a partly-trained knight-to-be who couldn't even run a half-mile without wheezing? And what use would she have for this mysterious leader-ruler?
Eh. She'd focus on making it to her half-mile. All the better to chase down missing starseeds. THAT, at least, she knew mattered. She'd seen the impact of one of those gone missing, and would prefer to not have to see it again. While the easiest method of prevention would be to not let someone steal one in front of her, sometimes a good old-fashioned chase was sure to ensue.
Plus, someone stole her purse? Oh yeah, she'd catch 'em herself.

Tossing his weapon, or rather, the doll that was just a rather pathetic thing he rather disliked and hoped would break after prolonged use so he'd get something new, into the air and catching it. Lime was certain that he was going to be in for a long night. Few people were out these days, preferring the indoors with the recent spider attack and the whole 'lack of daylight' situation. Kicking back and tossing the doll up in the air while catching it was not the best waste of time, but with the lack of foot traffic as of late and the dead body current down on the sidewalk he wanted to see how long it would be until it was found. Tempting fate was..well it was better than nothing. And, so far the youma he'd requested to show up for corpse disposal was no where to be found. It wouldn't have listened to him sure, but it could at least do it's job and get rid of the evidence. It took a solid 8 minutes before someone found the corpse, screaming before Lime jumped down, grabbing them by the throat. "Well, at least someone showed up I guess." He muttered, letting go of their throat to grab into their chest whist they screamed. "Oh shut up would you?"

She was happily stretching back to the other side when a scream split the air. Wha? Who on earth would be out screaming at this time of night? She dropped her arms, and sucked in a breath, breaking into a jog, dragging her slow a** towards the yowling sound. She couldn't tell if it was man, woman, animal, vegetable, or mineral; but it was shrill and screechy. And she noticed, as she drew closer, that the screechy voice had company. Or, perhaps, the screechy person was one of the Megafar- Nega Verse- agents?
Which meant a trap. She pulled her frisbee to hand, and moved quicker, huffing and puffing as she drew near. Turned 'round the corner, and saw- "Really?" she chucked her Frisbee at the person who had their hand in someone's chest. "You people ever hear of consent? If they're screaming, they don't want it, and what you're doing is just piss poor manners all the way around."
Hopefully, she wasn't too late; the person was still screaming, though, so...
Okay, well, if she saved them, what would she do then? Punch this person in the face with a frisbee? How would she protect her own chest- this thing had like 0 protection for the general starseed area. Probably. Though that person was wearing a shirt with plenty. Which also begged the question as to how she might be able to like... what diseases came from hands in the chest? Magic be damned, there had to be germs and s**t.

"Well-" The was a crackle of energy as Lime yanked, a glittering starseed in his hand, and the screaming ended with a startling abruptness, "-see dollface, I don't need consent. This is more like an earth tax. The price some people have to pay for living on a world that's dying." He held up the starseed before pocketing it. "Lime, and you're-" Eyes roamed over her before he smirked, "under dressed. But that's sort of your bag isn't it, being a 'protector' or something. Anyway, welcome to the corpse party, population you and me." The bodies now lay on the pavement, hollow dead eyes with open mouths, caught in a soundless scream of their final moments. "Course I would love to stick my hand in your chest too, but you won't make it easy for me I take it?"

"First off, there are so many problems with you calling me dollface, what the ********, do you think this is the 1920's? Second off, give that back, it isn't yours! And thirdly, if you have any better ideas where we can live, I'd be happy to let you s**t yourself here alone."
She gripped her Frisbee, hand shifting to her hip. "But most importantly? You always have clear consent before you stick it in. You didn't even put on a glove." The Frisbee was flung at his head. "For the record? I don't consent. And I'm getting that starseed back."
What had the steaming half-youma told her? Your kind needs to know — for every attempt you thwart, the cost rises higher. The attempts grow greater. There can't be an armistice.

Lime laughed at her. Oh she was a spirtfire. Now this might actually be a bit fun. He could get three starseeds and one of a knight- the boss would really dig that now wouldn't they? "Okay sweet cheeks." He winked at her, just wanting to rile the woman up. "I'm not the one looking like I walked out of a roman porno remake. But hey, to each their own. As far as the starseeds, finders keepers. Or well, not my fault they can't fight back. The weak die, strong survive, Darwinism and all that." The frisbee, hit him in the face and he scowled, eyes narrowing at her. "b***h." He hissed, pain shooting across his face as the cut ran across his temple. "I think I'll take my time with you." He summoned his weapon, throwing it at her, the doll relatively harmless on its own but- Diversion all the same.

Ugh, he was gonna give her acid reflux. Or maybe she was actually vomiting in her mouth at the wink. "Yeah, um, I 'll be honest, I don't have much experience with this 'duty' thing, but I imagine that stealing a starseed from a civilian is kind of like a WWE wrestler challenging a pencil pusher to a fistfight, or a paraplegic to thumb wars? There isn't all that much they can do about it, and it's a d**k move and no one likes you."
It had nothing to do with weakness, it was life at its ******** finest- the people in power shat on the people who didn't have it and kept them pushed down... or murdered.
The doll being thrown at her was a surprise, and she wheezed as it took her in the face. "Are you ******** kidding me? A doll and a frisbee. We're a fine mess. How about you just give that stupid starseed back and I don't try to punch it out of you."
Not that she knew how to fight.
Or liked to.
Or wanted to.
But she wasn't exactly a willowy girl, she could probably at least bloody a nose from sheer rage. If she had to.
s**t, what was she even doing, this was all stupid.
Pythia chucked his doll at his face with an angry grunt.

He laughed, ducking as the doll was thrown back at him. “you’re right. We do make a great pair. Except I’ve got places to be. So, see ya Xena. Have fun with the bodies.” He laughed again, knowing when to make a run. Two starseeds in, he’d not risk it. A good haul- He ran. He’d keep running until he couldn’t run anymore. Two starseeds in one night would be enough. For now at least.

Xena. it was a nickname she could live with. Though the corpse with her, she could do without. Jesus. What could she- what was she- "******** teleports!" it was half-hiss, half-screech. Stupid damned Negaverse agents, and their stupid-
Should she just... leave the person they had st there? Call the cops? Or- ugh. She couldn't feel a Negaverse agent nearby anymore, and the person was limp on the sidewalk, eyes wide and blank.
Ugh. This was... she stepped back, one, then another. The blank, open eyes were disgusting, and the breathing, and-
Imbrium ran.
