Quote: The New Year is nearly upon you; all around town, people are buzzing with excitement. Sales are aplenty and among some of the better deals is a popular new brand of champagne. The drink’s been getting a lot of attention and very good reviews; it boasts a guarantee for a magical evening. It’s a promise that holds true—sort of. Anyone who imbibes the champagne will be extremely in tune to their more romantic feelings. They may feel more open, more daring, or more flirtatious towards the object of their affections. Or, maybe a glass of it is enough to make them realize they have feelings for someone…Either way, after ingesting the champagne, romance is all you can think about. The effects last for only a few hours, so you’d better use that time well. The bottles are out of stock quickly, so you are lucky to have gotten your hands on one. Lucky, unless you made a fool of yourself in your romantic haze…

Altais was extremely excited for the new year. Though his last year had gone by in a flurry. He barely remembered much besides his powered adventures. He had been dubbed the BAE watcher by Sedna for the countless times that he'd come to rescue not just her...but others from the VILLIANIOUS Pyrophanite.
It made him a little worried cause Dene always told him to stay out of trouble and here he was just going head first into it! Though Dene was really strong too, and he worried that she might be pushing herself. Since they were still working on things to make their group stronger, Altais enjoyed the quiet evenings where he wasn't Bae watching.
Tonight was one of those nights, with a beautiful moon and night full of stars. He could hear cheers of the crowd gathered in the streets to countdown the year. His spot on the roof gave him a good vantage point, but also provided cover and relief from anyone seeing him. He had a small picnic set up, with the full makings of snacks and a very expensive, very highly rated bottle of champagne.
"Making nights magical?" Altais read the label, popping the cork and pouring himself a glass. "Some would say all nights are magical." Music played from the people below, lights flickering and Altais toasted the night.
"Let's make tonight the most magical?" He said in to no one in particular but if anyone wanted to respond, they were welcome too!

She didn't... really patrol much these days. Well. She did. It was impossible for Lilith to not reach out and take hold of that pen, to become Metis. It just... felt weird now. None of the other Asteroids were there. She was finally an Eternal senshi...
There were a lot of changes over the years. Eight years of being a senshi...
It was a bittersweet sense that followed her that night as Metis patrolled, listening to music playing, people laughing, and of course, keeping a proverbial ear out for trouble. The aura that reached her though... she perked up, delighted to feel the ease on her mind that an Order energy brought. It took her a bit, but eventually, her heels clicked carefully over the rooftop, using the energy that bounced from her and the figure before her to navigate across the otherwise unseen terrain.
"How exactly would you make tonight the most magical?" Though she doubted he'd intended for someone to respond, Metis couldn't help it, smile bright on her face as she approached the seated figure. She just hoped she didn't startle him too much.

Altais wasn't one to be startled by another creature of Order, but he did bounce a little at the sudden presence of one. Mostly because he had drunk a good amount of the champagne and was enjoying the bubbly after effects of it. His green eyes moved up as he looked at the senshi who, honestly in a lot of words, kind of left him a little dumbstruck. She was pretty, and so very fluffy white and so very pretty that words stuck in his mouth at first.
He struggled with what to say before swallowing some nervous spit and smiling at her. Though he couldn't tell if she was staring at him for sure under the veil over her eyes. "Well." He poured a small glass and then held it up for the woman. "Magical nights happen by things that happen randomly. Like...Like who knew if I sat on a roof, I would be greeted by a christmas angel?" The senshi grinned. "Would the christmas angel like a sip of champagne to bring in the new year?" He scooted over on his picnic blanket, to make room so she could have most of the small space heater if she wanted.
"I'm Altais!" He said cheerfully, "Super senshi of shockwaves!" As best as he could, he also took a sip from a different glass. "This is really good champagne if you want some!" He waited, "Oh but I am not a creeper or anything, so you don't have to worry! I am good. Or at least that's what Denebola tells me...." He rubbed his chin thoughtfully, as he thought about his best friend. How would Denebola treat all new senshi?

Though she didn't notice his jerk at her arrival, his momentary silence did have her smile falter slightly, cheeks going pink as she thought perhaps she'd intruded on a private moment he'd rather undisturbed.
Yet before she could offer an apology and take her leave, he began to speak, his words mixing with the sound of a bubbling liquid being poured into a glass. She could see the outline of the bottle and glass somewhat, though it took her a small moment to realize when he was holding it towards her. Christmas angel? The color on her cheeks darkened even as her smile grew, a giggle escaping her before she could press her lips tight to contain it. "I... well, thank you," she chuckled, reaching out first one hand to the flute of the glass to press her fingertips to it to tell where the glass was, then her other finding the stem to take from him. "That's very kind of you to offer, and to say that."
She'd not expected to be spending the rise of the new year with another--she'd declined spending it at her parents' house, and had simply made plans to meet with friends and family after New Years. A part of her couldn't help but be amused that it seemed those plans might have become altered quite rapidly. "It's lovely to meet you, Altais," she said with a genuine grin. Shockwaves? That was a new one. Electric, or more energy impact..? Again she laughed as he assured her of her safety there, a gloved hand pressing to her lips carefully. "If you're a friend of Denebola's, I'm sure I'm in wonderful company then." She'd not spoken to the Senshi of Dragonflies since the immense youma's attack at the power plant, but considering how much she'd aided her getting away from Labyrinthite... She shoved those darker thoughts away, focusing on the lighter moment at hand. "I'm Metis, Eternal Senshi of the Third Eye." The title felt odd on her lips, but she kept her smile in place.
Realizing he was offering as well for her to sit, Metis took the last few steps necessary to cross the distance, holding the glass with one hand while the other collected her skirts to sit carefully and not cause some potential mishap. But once she settled, her legs tucked up beneath her to not take up more room than she needed, and skirts smoothed out a bit, she turned her head towards the senshi who seemed as bubbly as the champagne.
"What made you decide to set this up for New Years?" Carefully, she brought the glass to her lips and took a sip. Above her veil, her brows rose as she gave a small hum of appreciation. "This is very good, oh my."

Her curious way of grabbing the glass made Altais study her even more, and he wasn't sure, but part of him wondered if she could see him just...looking at her. She was really pretty, and her senshi outfit was really nice.
A small creeping heat of embarassment raised up on his neck, warm and red and he placed his hand over it, as if to cover it. But his smile didn't falter. "You know Denebola!" Thank goodness his best friend knew so many people! He had been worried others would think he was creepy but he was glad that he wasn't!
"Nice to meet you Pretty Metis!" The compliment escaped before he could stop it and then he continued to roll with it. He didn't try to hide that he was watching her every movement at the moment, and felt, that this, was probably what attraction felt like.
Metis was very attractive.
"Because New years, New starts!" He raised his glass excitedly, "I wanted to start new years with bang, though I cannot be too careful with senshi life! It is good, Pleasure and pain.....ah...no sorry....Mixing work with fun?" He hummed, "Uh, Sorry, I want senshi life to be fun, so start the new year in a fun way in senshi form?" He stuttered....happily though.
"Isn't it!? Recommended by friend and said to be romantic!" He smiled at Metis, "I am lucky though! I do not have to enjoy alone, thank you for joining me!"
