Morpheus didn't even know why he had gone back in the cave, perhaps it was to hunt for the glow worms, perhaps it was because he had thought he had dropped something when he fought that senshi. Perhaps the truth was he was thinking about what the senshi had told him. He walked the tunnels of the cave looking at the glow worms and doing nothing more than wandering and letting his mind warner. Was it true what the senshi had said, they were their when his court was born. What did that mean for him? He had awakened a few years ago and now he wasn't certain of his court and if it was real. Did that mean that his court was just leeching life from the earth and wasn't a real court at all?
He brushed his hand on the cold surface of the cave wall as he walked along slowly. He didn't expect to see anyone else in the tunnels that day. Then again he hadn't expected to meet the senshi recently. So many strange things had been happening to him this summer and he wasn't sure where it would end. What would happen next would the mirror verse disappear?

He'd heard of glowing worms, though there had been no pictures on the news, it was a curious thing that they seemed to fall apart and die when brought into the sun. He knew nothing similar to it on his own planet so he wanted to investigate and see these glowing bugs.
So he'd set off for the cave, using the technology of this planet to help him find where he was going. Finding the cave itself was more on him rather than technology, the tech had just helped him find the place where the cave was, but once he'd found it he headed inside. He could sense something...something dark but not as much chaos as he'd felt beforee...what it was he wasn't sure. Hopefully he'd find out whatever had the dark aura.
In the meantime he was occupied with the glowing bugs he soon found. He almost wanted to say they were pretty...

Morpheus sensed someone else in the cave and he frowned he wasn't sure who it was but didn't sense that they were chaos energy. He had enough of being beaten by other factions lately and wanted to avoid that, so he didn't rush for the other energy. Instead, he attempted to find a way out of the cave without having to face the figure whoever they were. He sighed as she walked on and on with no end in sight. He was feeling it was hopeless just as he had gotten lost the last time he was in the cavern. so many natural tunnels to get lost in, it was no wonder people once thought caves were paths to the land of the dead.
He was pretty sure he was going to end up in the land of the dead if he stayed down here long enough. At least it was cool down here rather than the heat that covered the city that summer. He was about to give up and see if the energy knew the way out even if a beating was the price for that knowledge. He had paid for knowledge a great deal lately.

As he continued through the cave the senshi couldn't help but wonder about the owner of this aura. It was chaos for certain but it wasn't what he'd felt before. What was even more surprising was they weren't coming for him, they weren't making a sound, he'd have expected for whomever it was to charge towards him and attempt to kill him. How interesting.
Deciding to chance it he spoke up instead, hoping the echo would help him in reaching them. "I can sense you. Why do you not come to kill me? Tell me why you do not feel like others of chaos do - what are you?" He questioned, hoping for an answer, as he drew closer towards the aura and it's owner.

Morpheus frowned and came out "I could ask you the same thing, but if you aren't killing me, I'm not killing you, so we are at a stand still. I could attempt to use my magic on you, but I have no idea how to get out of here. So if we get close to killing each over down here we are both doomed. I don't know about you but I don't want to die today. If you must fight with me I'd rather do it top side if you don't mind." He said simply and pointed up with his hand.

Raising a brow he tilted his head, ears shifting and moving to show the confusion as he approached the other. "What are you?" Looking him over as he got closer. "You do not look like the Negaverse....and not as dark." But still there was chaos to be felt in the other.
"You are a senshi, you look like one." And he really was interested in this one...but he wondered why he felt dark. "What are you senshi of and what is your name?"

Morpheus blinked confused "What are you that you don't know a dark court senshi when you see one? I'm Morpheus dark mirror senshi of surreality, and this is the most surreal conversation I've ever had." He said simply and he looked at this senshi and shook his head. "My faction is a chaos faction." He shrugged "Not sure if you can say that is right or wrong, and I don't even know if my court is good or evil, I spoke to a senshi recently that told me they were there when my court was formed so what does that say to the history of my court?" He pondered. "I've been told I could seek out an order royals and purify." He said and nodded mostly to himself.

"I am Selinur...senshi of glaze ice and I have just recently arrived on this planet. The energy called to me and allowed me to come here..." His voice trailed off and his blue eyes looked distant, far away, for a moment before he focused back on the other. "Dark mirror...I will have to look into that. I will have to learn about your court."
Listening to the other, they seemed confused and unsure of themself, before he finally spoke again. "Why does it matter if your court is new or old. Courts and alliances fall anf are built all the time - or they used to be. Courts are not needed...many senshi stuck to themselves or had small alliances. You think history is needed for your court to be valid but how much time counts? Time does not matter in this case but rather the reason and purpose of the court and the allinces within it." Shaking his head the blond turned and motioned the other to follow him.
"You do what you wish but only if it is what you want. Not because you think it is what you should do. Do not change sides if it not what you want to do personally." Look at him! Beinng social and giving advice! But this one was a child and was confused, even if they were chaos. He had said he wasn't evil though it was certainly chaos.
"If you want to change than do it."

Morpheus listened and then said "I suppose you are right, but if the court has no history it just makes me wonder why it is in the first place, why are we trying so hard to build something when there are things already on earth." He shook his head "No animal can live in the mirror space." He was bothered most by this since he loved birds. "That is the thing I have to figure out what is right and wrong and what is best for me before I decide." He said with another shrug. He nodded "Well shall we get out of here and fight or not?"
Posted: Thu Jun 30, 2022 6:41 pm
"The other courts at some point had no history and why do you need a court?" He questioned shaking his head. "That whole concept is confusing. There is no alliance to be made...no giving and taking of resources and no army to call to help in a time of need. A court here is smaller and simpler and yet you worry over it's age."
Nodding hsi head he turned to glance over his shoulder. "We shall. And you will make up your mind but think on it carefully. What is a court here honestly if not a court of individual senshi, with no planets and armies to back them, who set about working together towards a common goal." His own planet had not been apart of a court and alliances had not been made. They had remained, offically, neutral in all things. They had been too busy, and too concerned with, gathering information on everyone possible. They had to be attractive to everyone. But there had been a whole planet of people for a court to benefit and it wouldn't have. There had been an army, small as it was, but it could have been put to use if neederd and lent aid to a court member in need...but there had been no court which he'd joined - no one had ever.

He listened and then said "Yes we have mirror spaces, but we have no planet or wonder to defend." He paused "Perhaps I should purify then I could gain a place that birds could someday appear in, I dislike the land being dead and cold, or perhaps I should keep fighting to bring the land to life." He said pondering. Once they reached the surface he said "Well you have been more than patient, but I won't aim to kill you." He said firmly. The senshi had been too knowledgeable for Morpheus to want him dead.

"Defend? There is nothing to defend. Planets have fallen all over the cosmos. The only thing to be done is to repair and rebuild - to give time." Time for them to gather themselves and regain their own energies. The planets would need time to recover, from whatever had wrecked them, there was nothing to deffend as far as he was concerned. The fight was lost there was no defending. There was a battle, of sorts, to take place but more so it was rebuild, repair, and give it time.
"And yet this planet too falls apart. If not your planet than perhaps save this one first before it too joins the long list of fallen planets. Do as you wish though." He stated as they came out from the cafve, and he watched a small worm die on his shoulder. brushing it off he took several steps out into the open before turning fully to face the other. "I won't either - not this time." He had not given Selinur reason, yet, but if he did...Selinur would have no issue in removing him. But this one wanted to change sides and did seem to care and have concerns over things. He would not push him one way or the other, insincere changing of sides did no good, but this one also didn't reek of chaos like others.
"Come, show me what you can do."

Morpheus nodded the things he said made sense earth was in trouble. He nodded and then blew his smoke at the senshi and prepared to follow it up with a physical attack as soon as the senshi was distracted. He rushed in to attempt to punch him in the stomach. He didn't know if it would work but it was currently his best attack.
Super Sailor Scout Attack: Morpheus' Smoke Range: 6~-8', dependent on wind conditions Duration: 40 seconds Use Count: Useable 3x without energy replenishment. Miss Chance: Morpheus' attack can miss based on wind blowing the smoke in the wrong direction, a character jumping out of the way, or shutting their eyes / shielding the face. Effect: Morpheus can either wipe his forehead or touch the dust-laden ribbon of his uniform to summon a handful of soot. He then blows it toward the target (hence the variability on range), and if it is ingested by the target, the attack will take hold. It does not sting the eyes as one would expect of smoke. From then on, the afflicted character will interpret the world with blended elements of stream of consciousness / dreaming. These elements are entirely up to the player - for example, they may see someone's face taper into a trombone, or watch a battle taking place upon a lake that's dripping upward onto the clouds, or that Destiny City has become a sphere encasing the entire battle, and looking upward reveals the rooftops of buildings on the other side. Any blended elements are free reign here - sights, sounds, tastes, feelings, and smells are all viably manipulable components in Morpheus' attack.
This attack can affect people on a whole - characters may see people as something entirely different, like whales floating on balloons, or household furniture, or even as other significant figures in their lives.

As reality warped, and twisted, the senshi of glaze ice took a step back. His tail moving, on it's own, in order to keep the senshi's balance as well as show his displeasure with this situation. He knew it was some sort of sight altering magic but that didn't help him any, though it set him on edge because he knew an attack was due any moment.
When he was hit the senshi doubled over, no longer looking at the warped figure of a beast common to the deep woods of his planet. It was a rather large beast with six legs, claws, and fur the color of steel. The creature had sharp fangs that poked out from it's upper jaw and ears the size of a dinner plate. The creature was large, taller than the cars he'd seen on this planet, and as long as a school bus. It was nothing to mess with, and most did indeed leave them be, and here he'd just seen one...
But as the wind was knocked out of him the creature vanished, just as they had from his own home planet. They had been one of the first to go, despite how strong and feared they were. They ate a lot of other animals, being carnivorous as they were, and had thus eaten many sick and dying things as they'd needed to eat in order to survive. It had instead hastened their demise and they had wound up gone before the smaller animals they'd once feated upon. Everything else however had lasted longer, though not by much.
With his vision still swimming and showing him all manner of things, things he didn't even have a name for, he tapped his foot on the ground and called on his own magic. He had to hope they were still close enough for his magic to work on them. He could see the cave but instead of the person he saw other things - other people...people he'd known but they looked distorted and different - wrong. Let's see, if he could, how this senshi handled his magic....
Sailor Scout Attack: Ice over. Selinur will tap his foot gently on the ground, whilst calling out his attack, this attack can be used three times in battle and lasts 30 second each time. When he taps his foot on the ground it’ll cause the temperature to drop within a 5 foot radius of him. For the duration of his magic, it appears as though chilly rain is falling around him. Wherever the rain drops land will immediately solidify into a frozen glaze. He will be immune to the glaze but the ground beneath him and anyone or anything who comes into contact with the falling rain will be rapidly chilled by the layer of glaze that grows over them. The ground beneath him will rapidly become slippery, and any items near him will become too cold and slippery to pick up. The five foot radius of his magic moves with him, however the more he moves, the less rain coats an area and the less slippery it will be. When the magic ends, the glaze will immediately dissipate unless players want to have lasting damage.

Morpheus was caught off guard by the ice attack and fell sliding all over the place as he attempted to get to his feet he was stuck in a prone position. He scrabbled to get back to his feet so he didn't lose the fight, but he wasn't sure that would work.
