Quote: The holidays are the best time to eat. Everything always seems to taste better during this time of year, and when you think about your favorite holiday food, it is so easy to dwell on something wonderful that you remembered from childhood. It might be something you think of often, or something you haven’t thought of in years, but when the thought comes into your head, within the next half hour you find the recipe, be it online or folded up in one of your coat pockets. It seems like a wonderful idea to try and recreate your wonderful memories, doesn’t it?
As a consequence of these comfortable tidings it should have come at no surprise that the festive season eventually took hold, and even as she wandered down the street it wouldn't have been entirely out of place to see she had uh... adjusted her fuku somewhat.
...Well, perhaps 'adjusted' was the wrong word, but at some point following her transformation this evening she had promptly set a santa hat atop her head and the visored senshi was now striding down the now empty streets with considerable vigor. A spring in her step and her head held high, she was far from the uncomfortable paranoia of previous festivities and had fallen into a much more recognisable state. The red head was back and with her she brought her enthusiasm, positivity and general determination to have some fun.
She hadn't yet bumped into anyone, either nefarious or friendly, but she was feeling sociable and if she didn't find someone within the next hour or so she would probably elect to experiment with her phone again. For the time being however; well, she'd be patient. These things had a way of working out and there was just something about this evening that gave her a sneaking suspicion she wouldn't be alone for long!

Fettelite was being an absolute idiot out in the snow tonight.
Last year when winter came, he was scared of it. His general would dump him in the city without so much as an extra coat, and leave him there from dark to dawn, doing his ‘duty’ to the Negaverse in the freezing cold. There was no where to go then, except the cold public bathrooms in the parks, or occasionally a parking garage that had heat slipping from the vents.
But he was stronger now! And he could teleport back to somewhere warm after he was done his patrol. AND he had somewhere other than the Negaverse Barracks to return to.
His Nataniel... Probably wasn’t waiting for him at home, but hey! He was there and his bed was warm.
It was all of those good feelings, and the fact that he had bundled up nice and cozy in layers, that allowed him to enjoy the snow. And that included picking up a piece of scrap cardboard and using it as a sleigh to ride down a massive hill in the city.
And off he went! Faster and faster and faster and faster, picking up speed, and then hitting a snag and going straight up FLYING into the air!
Luckily for him, there was a pleasantly deep snowbank that cushioned his fall, and popping his head out from his landing pad had him greeted with an Aura and a familiar face.
“Oh Hey!!” A hand popped out of the snow, waving at the Senshi who wasn’t so far away. “Good to see you again!”

Mid-stride she came to a halt.
A voice had interrupted her evening and it was one that was relatively recognisable. If they'd been the same faction she'd have made a point of just hanging out, they'd have been a team in her books. Adorea and...whomever Fettelite may have been in a less chaotic form. For now, a friendly demeanour and companionship was the only thing she could offer.
...Although given she could only see his head from beneath the snow she did have to wonder if he needed a bit more than that at the moment. Unsurprisingly her eyebrow had arched, what had he done to bury himself or had someone else done it?
"Are we going full camo?" she asked curiously, a grin flicking on to her lips as she turned ever-so-slightly and began to move towards him. "Cause I'm almost positive you're not supposed to be talking snow," she teased, placing her hands on her hips as she drew to a halt.

“Hmmm..? Oh! No, no no, I was just slidin’ down a hill and then just went WHOOSH into the air and then crashed. Like all the best fun winter activities, you have to have a bit of risk to enjoy everything at it’s fullest!” As he wiggled in the snow, he managed to pop out a hand and give a proper wave to the Senshi who was now coming towards him. It seemed like he was seeing more and more of her recently, but that was just fine! She was a nice girl, and he would much rather meet nicer people than some of the more evil people he had to deal with on a regular basis.
“So what are you up to? You busy? Ooh, do you want to go sledding with me? I had some cardboard over there that worked awesomely to go down the hill with! I’m sure you can most definitely stick the landing better than me!” While he had speed for someone his stature, he was also kinda clumsy and had trouble controlling directions. Going flying with such ease was clear evidence of that.
“Oh, but uhh... Do you think you could help me out first? I uh... I think my legs are kinda stuck above my hips, so I can’t really get a good grip on where to stand. You’d think with these captain powers I’d be better at all this, but nope, it doesn’t help when you’re a goof.”

"You know... I'd have been sledding about now if I hadn't ended up finding out I was this," She motioned to her fuku and sighed wistfully. The small reminder that her life had changed quite a bit lately caused a slight twinge. Evidently, she still wasn't entirely sold on who and what she was yet but she was at least trying to make i t work... there was something to be said for the easier and less dangerous life she'd lived before now though.
"Some really nice slopes out there, but you picked a pretty good one," she braced herself as she grabbed hold of his hands and began to tug. She had enough savvy to appreciate that if he'd fallen into that much snow then the selected run had been a good choice. With senshi strength to id her she didn't struggle overly much to pull him out of his muddle and then returned to the topic at hand.
Her expression flickered with sheepishness for a moment.
"Ah, well..." she cleared her throat and lifted her hand to rub at the back of her neck. "I was weighing up the pros and cons of technically breaking the law," she admitted. "Only moderately breaking it, but still breaking it."
She paused, albeit briefly.
"You can come if you like?"

"Just cuz you've got magic now doesn't mean you can't take a break every now and then." Fettelite made sure to hold onto the girl's arms tightly as she yanked him out. He was shivering from head to toe, but he would be just fine! A little cold never really bothered him anyway. It was in his very civilian name after all! "You don't have quotas, and no one's making you do the superhero thing, you know? So if you wanna take a break and go down a hill, you should! Especially if it makes you happy."
Now free of snow, he gave a proper dog-shake, sending snow flying and finally freeing him of his icy prison.
"Thank you! And... wait, what? Aren't Senshi not supposed to do the Law breaking thing? What are you gonna do...? If it's not really all that bad, I'd love to go!"

Quotas were an odd thing, but you know what, a part of her did have to wonder if perhaps the senshi should have some form of quota. When one side became complacent or did nothing then it pretty much ensured the other side could do what they wanted. If the White Moon were so determined to make things safe then why was their participation optional?
...Ok, ok, so mandatory service would make them 'as bad as' the Negaverse but if they were literally the only thing that could stop Chaos then wasn't it logical to do so?
Meh.
"We probably should be doing those things," she pointed out to Fettel with a small smile. Sure he might have been one of the 'bad guys', but he was a bit of a paradox. Pleasant and adverse to these so-called quotas, yet a part of the organisation anyway... She had to wonder why he'd made that choice instead of serving a nicer purpose. Granted he might not have been born with the powers to become one of the White Moon but he just seemed a little out o place.
Yeah, out of place. He was someone who came across as having a good heart and such compassion didn't quite fit with the wider Negaverse's endgame (at least to her).
"I was going to break into a kitchen and make Cinnamon Rolls," she admitted, her smile a touch more sheepish. "You know those really big, fat ones... Like a Cinnabon?" Strictly speaking her intentions weren't going to harm anyone but it was very possible the kitchen would be a mess of dust ad cinnamon sugar by the time she was finished with it.
"We always got them at the airport when we were going on vacation around this time of year and it just struck me, I was like, 'you know... I could really go for one of those'."
She motioned to him and chuckled.
"Could be a place for you to warm up since the oven should heat the place up a bit when it's on, you know?"

”I think, once upon a time, I heard things like teams, small organizations within your senshi side, or courts of people united. Do you not have that sorta thing?” Not having someone to actually answer to would be difficult to deal with, in the end. No one to keep him on track, no one to keep him doing his job. without that sort of reign his General had on him, it was more than likely he would suddenly fall out of that schedule and get into more and more trouble.
“... Why would you break into a kitchen? Do you not have a kitchen at home?” He gasped just a little bit, cover his mouth in a sorta pretend moment while smiling behind it.
“Oh no, Dory! Are you gonna be a bad guy? That’s not very White Moon of you, goin’ and breaking into kitchen. But... I mean, if you wanted one, I could teleport into a bakery without setting off any alarms and take you with me!”

"If we had them...I'm not so sure they're around anymore," Adorea admitted. She probably shouldn't have admitted it to someone who was arguably an enemy, but when all was laid to bear the facts were indisputable. She had no doubt that at one point they probably did exist, but if they were meant to function in any way to present a united front against Chaos then... either she didn't make the cut or they simply didn't exist.
Had they given up?
"It would make sense to have them, it would be useful too," she conceded. Perhaps if she'd been stronger and more experienced she could have taken it upon herself to gather others to her for that purpose but as it stood she was about as influential as bumbleebee in the forest. Useful on a small scale, but hardly capable of earth-shattering changes.
Nevertheless when he made reference to her own kitchen she provided him with a rather shrewd stare. Sure she had one, but how exactly was she going to explain to her parents that she was a superhero in a purple jumpsuit? Unless one of the Mauvians had one of those Men-In-Black flashpod things that she could use, she was in for a series of awkward conversations.
"You guys can teleport?" she asked curiously. Locking on to the more interesting abilities he seemed to possess, she afforded him a quick look up and down before grinning. "That's really cool, how does it work?"
It would certainly be nice to be able to pop in and out of the building undisturbed to avoid unnecessary stress, even if she was breaking the law.

"Hmm... Well, I don't see many other people out and about, but if I do, I'll send them your way! Not the Negas but the Order people! I'm sure a friend or two would be nice to have!" A vague image of one particularly beefy knight came to mind, but he couldn't quite remember his name.
He was a good guy! And kind to someone as incompetent as himself. Yes, that would have made an excellent friend for Dory!
If she wanted it, of course.
He was going to say something else, but then immediately got distracted by the question of teleporting and grinned nice and wide.
"Yup! I can! I can just.. Think and then poof, there I am! I don't know how it works, or why it works, but it does! I can even take people with me, but it gets really, really, really tiring after that. I gotta wait like, 20 minutes before I could do it again. Do people on the Order side teleport too, or nah?"

"Well if they can then I didn't get the memo," Dory admitted. It seemed that she might have been a tiny bit jealous that Fettelite could do that. Granted, she didn't quite know how to utilise it but the fact that he even got something like that without even trying was... Yeah ok, she was envious. If she could teleport then maybe she could be everywhere at once (well almost).
"If we can then I'm about to terrorise one of the Mauvians to find out how," she added with a raised brow. To Arthur's credit he had been relatively thorough with her introduction and she had a sneaking suspicion that if she could do something like that then he probably would have mentioned it to her.
"Sooo... You can bring other people with you?" she continued and then grinned. "Or is this one of those teleport in and open the door for me so I can get in kinda of deals?" she added with a chuckle. She didn't mind it either way, but she was very curious as to how something like that might even feel to begin with.
"Either way if we can use it so that we don't bother anyone that would be legitimately awesome."

"Pullin' pranks with magic? I think that would be awesome! Oh, wait, you meant... It's more like a blink. One second we're here, one second we're not. Just poof! Gone! I was told we can go really, really far, if we wanted, but I'm not quite strong enough to do that with lots of people. And we could definitely do that!" A big ol' thumbs up was given to Dory,
"Oh, but then let's make a deal! I heard Senshi have planets they can go to! I'm happy to go around and poof you wherever you need to go, as long as you can show me the planet one day. I've never been to one, so I think it would be really cool to explore! Maybe bring a rock back as a souvenir!"

Planets?
Now there was a thought, she had been told about that at one point but she hadn't quite figured out how to do it yet. Now that he mentioned it she was frightfully curious as to what might be out there, the history behind who her starseed was and how it even came to be here.
"You know..." she pursed her lips thoughtfully and then gave a firm nod. "That sounds like a fair trade," she conceded. She doubted that Fettelite would ever harm whatever was out there, if there was anything out there than she drew power from. If she could somehow find her way to it and then bring him with her then she certainly would...And if he wanted to bring back a rock then what was the harm?
"As soon as I figure out how the heck to get there I'll holler," she offered. She was fairly certain at some point one of the Mauvians had given her some details on it but up until this point she'd never really given it much thought...

"It's a deal then! Now then, where's this bakery we wanna sneak into?" He looked around, but honestly, couldn't see where they were going to go to. Maybe it was an actual Cinnabon! They probably had extra icing too and he wasn't above stealing a piping bag of that!
Maybe even put it on the cookies!
"I'm droolin' just thinking about it!"

"Well..." she waved her hand in a gesture for him to follow and began to walk further down the street. Truth be told the Cinnabon was in the mall, while she could get in there with very little effort, the bulk of the stores were alarmed and that was where the challenge lay.
When it came to the security guards in that place they just wanted and easy life and didn't seem to really notice if someone waltzed through provided alarms didn't go off so...Yeah.
"It's in the mall," she explained, though she was already climbing up the fire escape towards the windows she had propped open a while ago. She hadn't necessarily planned to go into the mall for anything but she had started to learn that escape routes were important in her line of work and when the weather was terrible, shelter was too!
"No breaking windows to get in though, I got that bit covered, they only alarm the stores themselves so we're good on that," she added.
If he'd been in the mall, at the very least he should know where the Cinnabon was from that!
