There was something to be said for flying. Even if it was diluted down to the simple act of falling with style. Of bounding city streetlamps, setting off motion lights, and jostling cars into *screaming* - whole a** rows of them - entire parking lots. If he left behind divots in steel hoods, and shattered plexiglass high-beams while playing sky-tag with his favorite wisp turned birb? Well...
Albite was, as always, well beyond caring about the little things. What existed in his wake was past tense, what mattered, truly; was everything that lay out before him on the people-pocked horizon.
He had Cerbs moving overhead, visible only as a wide swath of black limned by the neon-down glowing flecks in it's pinfeathers. The three headed other-planer creature was silent as death itself; save the occasional displacement of air where it flapped to catch an updraft or two. Albite followed -- practiced draining people from above, beside, beyond -- tested his range while Cerbs divebombed innocents out of their makeout spots, off quiet park benches, and into hollering view while taking midnight jogs. The manic energy of cracked out teeth-hunting fairies between them; the kind that couldn't wait for bone to appear beneath the cool side of a pillowcase.
All because Albite'd tripled his own quota superfluously.....
For the fun of it.
His path was aimless, flanking Cerbs whichever way it turned; they cut through property lines at speed. From city carparks, to concrete mazed main streets and side alleys. From the suburbs into the wilds ---
Or however wild one could consider well planned parks that'd just recently been overhauled for the encroaching summer.

Summer nights were divine. There was just something about the warm nights that created a sense of ease. Perhaps it was the general notion of summers being lazy or maybe it was just the atmosphere of the world feeling alive at all times during the selective months but Harmonia made it a point to relish the particularly lovely nights. Even if that meant going out on her own to patrol. Alone or no it was invigorating to be wandering the city rooftops, having watched the last few rays of sunshine disappear over the horizon and the summer night sky light up above. Determined to make the best of it on such a crystal clear night, the eternal opted to move away from the ever bleeding rays of the city center to the more quiet locations where the light traffic was a bit more subdued. It would never be as good as being in the middle of nowhere but it would do. Plus, maybe she’d get lucky enough to find a youma to take care of there. Productivity and enjoyment. A good combo. The park she headed to was large. So large in fact some portions of it could give you the feeling that it was a wild, untamed forest, when in actuality it was anything but. Still it was a lovely still. A good way to escape the constant hub but of the city even if the parks tended to be a bigger draw during the warm months. As she moved deeper, looking for a quiet place to sequester herself she felt the presence of the eternal long before she laid eyes on him. He wasn’t hard to find. In fact the corrupt appeared to be doing anything but hiding his presence with the way he moved around. And was that a youma with him? By this point she knew she was likely found. Her own presence was just as strong as his own. Still, she kept herself hidden among some heavy pine trees. Curiosity was piqued, especially by the…was it a bird…maybe bat youma? She’d never seen a youma with a Senshi before…he was a Senshi right? Damn curiosity. She slipped out of the trees and positioned herself in easy enough view if he cared to even look. If not, she’d follow at a distance and observe. Gauge him and his motives. The real question for her though, was if he was the sort to mull over a good conversation or attack on sight.

*Oh-hey-an-Etern--*Albite turned his head at the flit n glow of an Aura tickling the edges of his senses. Someone from Order!! Wide eyes and huge smile for the new thrill of excitement, wondering who exactly was peeking at him from that particular direction. He always liked making new friends, new fights, new ******** and follies!! *G r O u N D ! ! !*The Joy didn't last. Suddenly Albite was catching thirty pounds of saurus-crane-sized-bird body in the back of the head. Thick cinching claws tangling in rope-length locks and billowing sashes, throwing him completely off mid-leap; like a sentient tripwire that had playfully malicious intent behind it's every movement. Pain. The ending was all graceless pain. A botched landing. A heap of Albiting the dust as Cerbs bore him down into the ground and used him as a log to perch upon. Just. Heaps of facedown, assup, grounded corrupt, groaning obscenities while he just --- stayed right where the ******** he was, because gravity was a b***h, and he needed to make sure his all-akimbo batwings hadn't been permanently clipped...that he wasn't bleeding out anything ******** i r d... Cerberborbus looked Triumphant. A blacklit neon splay of elegant death perched atop it's newest prey, expressing silent glee with every fanning flap of wings. Pleased to have caught *something*, *finally*, sans small screaming people to chase out of pure amusement. Cerbs didn't appreciate extended periods of boredom, of doing all the work in flushing people out without getting a single treat in return! But it's bonded should've known that by now...

It was fully and utterly impossible not to find the entire scene completely hilarious. The entire situation was just so out there, and the bird youma looked so freaking proud of itself as it sat perched on the corrupts prone form. Laughter escaped the senshi, a hand resting on her chest as she practically doubled over. Still, beside humor of the scene, the unmoving corrupt did spur a feeling of concern.
Moving away from the copse of trees, Harmonia hesitantly approached. “Hey, are you alright?” She called carefully. Her eyes remained on the duo of bird and corrupt. “That was a heck of a fall.” She wiped some tears from her eyes left over from her bout of laughter.
“Sorry to have laughed, but that was such a spectacular uh…show.” She hovered nearby, but kept several feet between herself and the corrupt. Caution was better suited to this situation considering she was outnumbered what with he bird youma with the corrupt.
“Can I help you at all?” She questioned.

Oh, laughter, joy of joys. N yep, yep, that was his blood -- all over his own face -- thank ******** he had three whole sashes to mop it up with now! The upgrade gods were generous and good. Being an Eternal was Aces!
"Jusht-bury-me-herh----" mushy into the Earth, Albite paused to pick dirt out of his teeth and shove Cerbs into a preening sprawl; rolled onto his side and just --- if it took him a bit to find himself sitting? That was cool, fine, good times, he was totally not concussed by the ******** ground!
His head was too hard for any of that nonsense.
"Mh---" wow did he even want to give her his name? No, not really, but there she was, being all nice n helpful, didn't mean he had to be an a** in turn. "Alhbite-eternal--batwings.." muttered into fabric, the laughing was fine actually; kinda pretty, like bells. He would've said as much - intended too - once he was done wiping his face free of all that messy pain. Felt his precious bird peck-peck-pecking away at the glints of metal that adorned the ends of his locks like it hadn't just done a very unkind thing for the fun of it.
Suchah rude little feather duster.
"Is it bad, or worse?" asked oh so gingerly while he pulled the tail end of green stripped fabric away, just to peek, and gave the (alright pretty - <********> - but why did they all have to be so pretty?!) eternal a bleary eyed look, trying very hard to cross himself into some sort of sitting straight.
The moon n stars were alight n spinning above, her aura was a ******** halo, n everything was made better by the slight tilt of -- spinning -- eugh -- enough that he decided it was better to close his eyes just a little bit longer while staunching absolutely everything. Pressure fixed problems. Some sorta medical 101, maybe? If he remembered right.
Course, maybe she'd burry Cerbs with him? Snake necked rat deserved to go down with his masters ship!!

Harmonia watched with concern as the corrupt utilized his copious amounts of sash to take care of his wounds. The deep red left behind concerned her more, but the man seemed unperturbed by his wounds. In fact, maybe it was the man's pride that had taken a harder hit with the fall? Well, either way, he seemed lively enough and if he wasn't worried then there wasn't any reason for her to worry either.
"Albite Eternal Batwings?" She raised a brow. It took a moment before it dawned on her. "Oh. Eternal Albite." Gods she was slow sometimes, but who went around introducing themselves like that? She certainly hadn't experienced it then.
And then he pulled away the sash, concern evident as he asked for her to assess the damage. Ok, maybe he was more concerned than she thought. Frowning, she took a few steps closer to get a better look. "I don't think you broke your nose, but you definitely have some nice scratches and your nose is still bleeding a bit."
With the sash pulled from his face, Harmonia was able to get a good look at him and place the voice with a face. She felt the heat creep into her cheeks before she even fully registered the corrupts features. And those eyes...
She stepped away turning her head in an attempt to hide the creeping red. "A little bit of ice and some Neosporin and you'll be fine. Nothing too bad. With how far and har dyou fell I am surprised that's all you got." She watched the bird out of the corner of her eye as it plucked away at Albite's hair adornments.
"Eternal Harmonia." She finally offered.
"Are you alright?" She questioned again. Sure he was only scratched up but that didn't mean there couldn't be something else wrong.

Oh-thank-god! Not broken, or non-existent, or --- and if he looked beyond the spots n stars of pain for a moment, he realized how right she was. Offered her a loose wet smile before he did his damndest to staunch what remained and cleaned himself up a bit. That sash was a ruin. But that was what subspace was for anyhow, shoving away messy s**t that'd disappear the second he powered down...n...up...n...gods but he'd never get how all the magic worked sometimes! He could set his fuku on fire while wearing it, and it'd be fine n new the next time he snapped his fingers! But everything underneath!?
Oph, but name, her name - Albite pinged it like he'd realized she was offering more than basic condolences n a title - that she was being genuinely nice about checking whether or not he was okay - The questions got a thumbs up, two thumbs up even, spot on for sorting out all his mumbling into some sort of words. He was sure he'd be fine, even if his dignity would spend the rest of the night sitting nice n quiet in a sling alongside his pride.
"Yeh-mh'good, this Eternal s**t is, ah, good as wearing tank armor sometimes? Though I wouldn't need it if somebirdy wasn't being an a** tonight!" If an intelligent force could've feigned innocence and ignorance? Certainly Cerb's tried, did its very best best at making a whole look of it, tucked tailed feathers and drooped beaks attached to steadily slinking legs. Albite would've sworn the beast batted it's lashes.
"You'd think it'd be the youma that'd do me in, or - uhm - one-ah-you?" a wince for that, as if he was being callous by including Harmonia amongst the ranks of 'they who were categorically the enemy' -- sometimes - kinda - maybe? He still had a hard enough time sorting that out. She certainly didn't look like someone he'd have a good time fighting? What with all the pinks, n blues, n those deep green eyes....
Especially those eyes, because there was pretty, and then there was soothing, and those eyes were soothing. Like a nice still forest, or....but he'd been complaining. Could certainly b***h about his misfortune and eye her dangly bow tassels n buttercup-yellow beadwork at the same time.
"But nooo, my own orbies! My precious Cerbs, ******** - Brutus putting forks n knives all up in my Cesar salad over here!" the gingerly retreating turkey got a halfhearted wave and lingering sigh, his plans, whatever they'd been were now firmly disrupted, but on the upside?
"Whatever, s'the risks of pet-parenting these days. M'just sorry you got dragged in, sure you were busy with --" and the open ended pause seemed almost eager. Now that his own activities had been knocked clean out his head, he wanted to know what she'd been up to. Night was still young and a little bit of blood had never ruined his evening before!

“Nothing.” She responded to his unfinished sentence. “Well…nothing besides patrolling for youma and making sure there’s no one being harassed by….you know.” She flashed him a knowing look. They both knew they stood on separate side of the war. Both were aware of the damage each side could do to each other and any unfortunate passerbys.
She clasped her hands behind her back while rocking forward onto her toes. She took the moment to appreciate the man in front of her. It wasn’t often she ran across someone of his physique and wearing…well, almost nothing. The fuku definitely showed off his muscles well. And tattoos. The design of the black marking so very well complimented the greens and blacks and made a full cohesive design with the corrupts aesthetic.
If she hadn’t been clasping her harness she surely would have fidgeting uncomfortably.
She cleared her throat audibly. In an attempt to salvage the awkwardness that she felt she turned her attention to the bird…youma? It was LARGE and the next most obvious trait besides its pure size was the fact it had 3 heads all of which were focused on Albite. “What is it?” She blurted out as she studied him. “It’s beautiful whatever it is.”
She dared to step a bit closer, all awkwardness gone, to the two foot large creature with beaks that could easily do damage to any unsuspecting person. She crouched a bit for a better look, hands resting on knees for balance. The bright red head, dark feathering, and long beaks also Mae the bird appear vicious. A perfect combo for anything that wanted to be intimidating on two fronts.

Oh, he indeed did know, and his grin for all that knowing was wild - shamelessly so. He couldn't blame a girl for doing her job, the fact that she'd chosen not lay him out further on his a** was just extra grace on top of an already awkward situation. He was appreciative, chill as chill could be leaning back onto his palms and staring up into her question with some mix of bemused curiosity, and a look that screamed 'how much time do you have?'
His precious Cerbs wasn't a short tail. Drama, firestorms, a wild bet, a burning office. Cerbs was oh so much ---
He'd known him just as long as Faustite at that point, hadn't he?
"Well---it all started with a bet between me n my then boss, now fiancé," and if he started with how he offered up his soul, n then won, n then --"And then!! I took them home--there were only seven of 'em at the time. Pile of glowy bastards had, just, all the names. I still have a list of wisp facts wadded up in a drawer somewhere..." the habits of bathing, grooming, feeding (except not) extraplanar beings he had little to no understanding of - the merchant he'd traded them to afterwards - "Then there was this hugeee wispzilla attack! It was all, like -- my precious babies turnt the ******** up and went godzila-mode, but on a Princess Mononoke scale? I wont lie, I was so heartbroken when they were gone, but then? They came back! There were ten of 'em! Kept 'em free range, or in a bookcase, or took 'em on sparring lessons. Lots of quality time. The wholee sheebang!"
Did she think they were youma? Couldn'tve, except maybe she did? Wait..did youma have an aura --- no -- but also? Some definitely did, so who was he to say on those kinda things.
Albite turned n pressed thumb and forefinger between his lips, trilled a short note that had Cerbs rolling all six of its eyes that way, before reluctantly trotting over in a flared, feathery huff. Expressing all sorts of put-out-ness and false loathing for being called.
"Cerbs -- thats cerberborbus for short -- had alot less attitude when they were just a pile of glowy beans. Wouldn't trade 'em for the world though. Even if they are going through this weird adolescent phase. I mean, I think they've stopped growing for now? But--who knows, one day they just freaking -- poofed -- I thought the poor thing'd died somehow, n after how careful I'd been?"
One day hey had orbs, the next a far more aggressively sentient amalgamation of a creature with form, substance, mass. With a mind for malicious playfulness and a stomach fulla ceaseless hunger. Big a** bird to keep him in check. Still a good friend to talk to though, and Albite waited till Cerbs got close enough to snatch - the precious few feet he needed for his trick to work - the flare of magic binding retribution so smoothly quick as it slid from his form in ink-like ribbons. Cerbs didn't stand a chance. They were getting hugged whether they liked it or not.
"S'not a youma though if that's what you're asking? Just my a*****e child that t o r m e n t s m e." the tease was utterly soaked in baby cooed affection, any kisses he tried to administer to the squirming pile of beaks and bleeding blacks was lost in silent protest and ruffled feathery plumes. A tri-toed foot planted near enough his face to exhume a laugh over all the wrangling of wriggling bird. "Yanno, if ever you'd hold still?! Nice ladies with long nails might pet you!"
The eyes turned on Harmonia were alien, primordial, focused. Sparks of differing intelligences behind bright blues, as feathers flared, and flattened around tangle of necks stretching out with interest all for Her.

As the tale unfolded, Harmonia's eyes widened as she did her best to follow and understand what Albite was explaining. He spoke as if he just said whatever came to mind first and forget whether it all strings together in an easy to follow story. Honestly, Harmonia was impressed with how he explained it all. Never had she had such a horrid time following someone's while understanding at the same time.
"So, all of these little wisp creatures turned into Cerbs?" She said curiously as she turned her attention to the bird that came when called. The creature was terrifying, but so incredibly interesting at the same time. If she had met it in a fight the intimidation factor would have been there. Now...
She dared crouching near Albite, holding a hand out to Cerbs, curious to see if it would come to her. At Albite's suggestion of possible scratches, Har wiggled her fingers in promise. "I honestly thought he was a youma at first. It's not everyday you see a three-headed bird. Let alone a bird that looks so..." She fished for the right word."striking."
She smiled. "He seems happy with you though." She commented. Albites love for the bird was also very easy to see. Hugs, kisses and baby-soft words. He was quite literally the epitome of a dad. A bird dad! A fun and rewarding relationship, she was sure.
As Cerbs reached out, Harmonia obliged by scratching one head, then another, before she eventually used both hands to try and equally tend to the three differing heads seeking attention. She knelt there in the grass, enjoying the moment. "He's so sweet." She commented.
"I am glad you'd rather talk than fight." She scratched under one of three chins, moving to the others as needed. "We aren't all that different, really."

"D'ya hear that cerbs? Harmonia think's you're pretty, instead of a bat outta hell, n menace to my social life. She's the nicest, isn't she --" she really, really was, nice enough that Albite didn't mind at all shoving Cerbs further into her grasp so he could admire the interaction; the way the devil bird became sweet as pie, a nosy splay of heads seeking scritches eternal from far more delicate hands than Albite possessed. He was more than happy to nod along in agreement, cause it was true!
Cerbs was a one of a kind, sweetheart painted nightmare extraordinaire, no matter how much hassle the bag of feathered bones caused him, he loved the creature very much.
"All Senshi are of the stars, yeah? Sisters, n brothers, n long lost frenemies! Even the ones of us who decided to roll round in the dirt down here, perma-style via Metallias good will or what have you," as if the statement was nothing more than shrug worthy while Albite dutifully brushed himself free of imagined bird detritus, and whatever grass n dirt'd managed to cling from where he cratered the ground with his fall, "besides? You didn't look like you wanted a fight. N I didn't feel like bringing one your way. Maybe next time though -- we can see if you're all sparkle n lace or if you've got some oomph in you?"
Tease warm as a summers day, that became a look full of imaginative searching; he wondered if Faustite would've sparred with her right there? Tested her magic for fun as he so often did with others -- except she wasn't technically 'of them', not that that'd ever mattered to Albite before. There was worth to knowing which people would put you down without hesitation, and which were better left alone with all their kind soffness.
Worth to him, who only really wanted the fights when they were good.
"Though goodness knows I've been tryna see more of -- umh -- all that upthereness....which is a lot easier to do with friends," fanciful flick of fingers skywards, past the little bit of overcast and into the great smattered beyond, "Not sure how long you've been at this, but sometimes? You just need an easy night and a good time."

Harmonia quite literally fell backwards from her crouch as Cerbs was thrusted upon her. Instead of being upset though she just laughed and enjoyed lavishing Cerbs with more attention. The bird was such a character, well…all three of them were. It was amazing how much interest they had in being loved upon. She’d even say it looked like the bird swooned at times if she hit a particularly good spot.
Eyes shot to Albite at his rather insightful proclamation about senshi and stars. “That was almost poetic.” Her smile grew even larger, if that was even possible. “And I completely agree! I just wish others could get it. There’s no reason we can’t get along, at least to an extent?” Those rose-colored glasses of her were think and pinker than normal. Having someone from the ‘other’ side agree with her was lovely! The last time that had happened…
She froze for a moment, her smile faltering a tiny bit at the memory of Hopeite.
“I probably shouldn’t say this, but fighting isn’t really my….thing.” She squirmed a little as a small blush crossed her cheeks. She tried to dodge, Albite seeing it, by turning her attention back to Cerbs and ducking her head behind one of the many heads she scratched.
“Wait. You can’t go to space?” How long had she been a senshi and she hadn’t known that?! “That seems like a tough trade-off for all of that…dirt.” She teased a bit as she started to regain her composure again. “I don’t visit my world often but, it’s a magical thing to experience!”

"Holy s**t. We should totally go! I can bring Cerbs, you can show them around, and me -- also me -- definitely me?" from certainty flung into question, albite preened at being labeled 'almost-poetic', cause he had a great way with words thankuverymuch! N then he took her everything and ran head over heels over emotionally excited cliff with it!
Because SPACE!!
"Cause, like, yeah -- I can't -- go planet-side to Praxidike, n even though I love fighting my magic isn't as built for it as my, uhmn, me'ness is built for it, yanno?" did that make any sense? Did it need to? Albite sighed at his own failure to make words in anything like understandable sentences, flopped back into the dirt n grass gazing skywards while his forever-bird got the petting of a life time.
"So, it's like this, far as I understand it? I can go to space, but only if I hitchhike. When I signed on n chose to go by Albite instead of Praxidike proper? I gave up the free rides home, picked this dirt ball over that dirt ball. M'not mad about it though, the trade's fair, tough as it seems. Besides, it's not like it's forever. There'll be other Praxidikes after me that'll make choices of their own, whether they want to call that planet home or this one? This choice is mine though..n I chose Earth over everything else." and he was happy for it, couldn't explain the how or why but he was. Had his people, his team, the whole of the rift n city in the under-dark. He'd found his own way to make everything worthwhile.
"When I went to Albireo's place though? S'ah really cute swan of a Senshi. I liked it up there. Wasn't really for me to live, but to visit? It was a good time."

"Idon'tthink any of us actually live our home worlds." She said with a chuckle. "I mean, I could be wrong, but I'd imagine people would want to be here with their families and friends. So, I can understand wanting to put your full focus on your life here on Earth. It just seems sort of sad that any opportunity you had to see a bit of your past is withheld from you.
"I can honestly say I've not visited my homeworld too often, but it is incredibly interesting to see." She grinned sheepishly. "I personally think Harmonia is gorgeous and I bet Praxidike is too. Going to a homeworld is sort of like stepping into fantasy books. A nice little taste of something not normal." Her fingers moved to scratch what she would consider the chin of the bird just where neck and beak met. She favored each of the three heads equally as she spoke.
"Maybe one day I'll take you." She shifted a bit uncomfortably. "I just...I've never taken anyone with me let alone someone not white-moon." It was a bit odd to say as she felt like it was isolating to others, but as much as she was enjoying this conversation with Albite, she needed to be cautious too. After all, she honestly barely knew the man and here she was already sitting there holding his bird and doling out love on it while chatting easily enough.
"I am curious. Did you actually choose the negaverse or were you just awakened on that side and that's all you've known?" Curious as a kitten. Might as well get some info though to try and understand her fellow Eternal.

"We're Senshi Harmonia, whether you n I were ever awakened or not? That's a cosmic truth, and if I ever want a taste of something not normal! I mean...have you seen the Rift? Girl..letmetellyou..I wake up and 'not normal' is just, waiting for me to come knocking." and technically, now that Albite was an Eternal living where he lived in the underdark? He didn't even have to get out of bed to go find the strangeness hidden in the deeper crevice's of the universe, it was all around him, constantly. He tripped over a corner and there it was! In the mirror, under his bed, around ever stupid corner..
He loved it. Never missed a day where some strange thing didn't befall him and his team, even if he occasionally wished those things were a tad less 'deadly'.
"And we are absolutely meant for our worlds. You think every generation before this..whatever..spent time up there wishing their descendants ended up stranded on some back water, low level, locked away planet like Earth? Absolutely not! Or..Idunno..maybe all the Senshi before you were like, rebellious? N Earth was their ideal.." he shrugged around a sigh because he couldn't get with the program of 'why' people weren't rebuilding their worlds. Senshi deserved family n friends as much as the next! Should've been recolonizing their own precious stars n searing asteroids..with family, with friends, with courts and princesses and princes!!
His looks for her asks were sly, as if she was opening a can of worms, because if there was one thing he could do? It was talk. He had all sorts of answers even if he had no answers at all, but he could always talk like he had them!
"So, for one? That's a sad statement. We gotta get you some friends to take, even if it ain't me, cause your world's gotta get it's party on! Don't just leave it up there like distant wall art -- get s**t done with it -- n two? I totally chose this. I mean, I was awakened into chaos, but it was also a choice, yanno? I look good in black Harmony, white's a lovely color but it ain't mine to wear this life time. Not that Praxidike of the past didn't rock it, he did, but yanno..I'm not tryin for the whole circlet ah kinghood n bustle's with bows look." A soft humm of thought to follow up the flow of words, occasionally he'd reach out to brush a finger or two through an outstuck feather along a large fanned tail, tug on a taloned foreclaw only to have his hand kicked aside, because rude, and obviously birb was having a good time, rolled over n being the lappest of not dogs.
