She had really done it now, her laid-back work in the Negaverse was coming into question. A message had come through stating that a fellow senshi was coming to check on her gathering quota. She partially wondered if this was related to her meeting with Chrysocolla, had they been more worried about her absence, and if she had been doing whatever it was she needed to? This was a pain, would they fire her? If they did how did that even work? Could she just like have her magic sucked away somehow? All the effort she had to put in trying to figure this all out was making her head hurt. As she wandered to the meeting point the senshi had mentioned, she powered up and prepped herself for the meeting. She didn't know what rank or whatever they were yet so she had to try being a little less abrasive than she normally was. It sucked that people didn't accept her for the way she was but she knew not everyone liked an attitude from someone they were speaking to. It would be any minute now that they would arrive, she now started to wonder what they even looked like. All the agents had a bit of a similar vibe going for them but the two senshi she had met were drastically different in attire from her or each other. At least from what she could tell, the long hair was only a thing for the Negaverse so far but she had only met one from each side at this point.

The night had been quiet when he'd left his last meeting and driven out to the parking garage Trey liked to use to both park his expensive car and transform under cover. He'd wished, for a fleeting moment, that he didn't have to go out tonight... It would have been nice to go home instead, make a cup of tea and enjoy a book for a change. Too bad life never worked that way.
He felt the power signature as he approached and Fafnir schooled himself into a friendly, neutral expression, landing near by and pacing forward with a smile of greeting.
"Hello. Beatrix was it? I'm Fafnir." He said when he got close enough to offer hand out to her, fingers wrapped in purple and scales up to his elbow. She reminded him of halloween with her green-tipped hair and tattered outfit in pumpkin colors. He remembered reading her entry in the database... Dullahan, was it? He'd had to google that to find out what it had meant. A headless rider on a black horse... if that was even what the sphere really meant, since it came from another planet. He had to wonder what her magic was like, with a sphere like that.

Beatrix turned towards the voice as they came towards her. "Oh Hello, yes that's me. It's nice to meetcha." He looked like a dragon almost, with all the scales on his outfit and the dragon-themed accessories. Part of her wondered what his powers were, did he have like fire and stuff or was it something else. "I dig your style, you look hella metal. Anyway, how are you this evenin?"It was a bit awkward for her to be interacting with another corrupt senshi, she was still pretty new to all this and wasn't sure what to turn the topic to. She was curious about how long he had been around so that would be the first thing she'd ask, then maybe get more into what kinda magic stuff he did. "Uh... how long have you been around doing this negaverse thing? I've been around for some time but never really had any guidance until recently."

"Your captain should be talked to then. Its a Captain's job to make sure their lieutenants have the training they need to be a safe, effective member of the Negaverse." He said with smooth warmth, his voice light to take any sting out of his words. A charming smile spread over his expressive mouth as he gripped her hand for a moment before releasing it, waving a hand towards the edge of the parking garage floor.
"I've been a senshi for six years or so. I specialize in managing resources for the Negaverse, including good PR. I have a lot of connections in my civilian life that facilitate that. You won't have to worry about specialization just yet... the basics will be enough." He said as he led the way, keeping his strides short enough that she could keep up. "What have you learned so far? I assume you know at least a little something about collecting energy, since I haven't heard anything about you being disciplined for shirking quota."
If her training was lacking, he could at least fill in the gaps for her. It would look very nice in his own file when he reported it, showing he was willing to take on such valuable work without prompting.

"I uh... don't have one yet. General Chrysocolla just started assisting me with the basics recently. I have been looking to learn more and maybe find someone to help me keep on track or if I need any help with stuff and things yanno? I do have the draining and punching thing down, I am proud to say I kicked a** and won my division in a tournament maybe like four or five years ago before college ate me alive. Thanks to Chrys I know a bit more on what to look out for from the other side of things, she even gave me a handy dandy guide on colors and stuff. She really is a nice person I think." General Chrysocolla had left an impression on her more than anyone else so far so her outlook on all this was much better than it had been before.

Fafnir frowned, but quickly smoothed out his expression. She should have been assigned a Captain from the beginning... who was collecting her quota from her? Had General Chrysocolla been doing it? No wonder she'd wanted Fafnir to help out. The generals had work to do, work that did not need to be chasing around lieutenants just to help them turn in quota. Maybe she didn't have other subordinates to worry about, or just not many? Whatever the reason, it felt like a grave oversight to Fafnir. Especially when there were supers like him who only had one lieutenant to mind. He could have easily taken on more.
"I suppose that's why I'm here, to help out with those things you need help with." He said as they reached the edge of the garage floor. "At the very least, I can help you get your quota tonight, and you won't have to call your General for a ride to turn it in."
Turning, he waved a hand at the city, indicating her to go first.
"Why don't you show me how you normally go about it? I'll back you up so you can worry a bit less about being jumped by someone on Order side. If you have any more questions, feel free to ask them."

Beatrix slowly made her way back down and into the back alleys where she started looking for the homeless or passed out drunkards that usually were around the bars. It didn’t take her long to find someone passed out near the dumpster out back. She kneeled down quietly and focused on draining from the person as best she could as the smell of alcohol and sickness wafted up from them. There had to be an easier way to do this, she had seen Fafnir do it from up on the roof. Maybe it was something she would get after she got stronger. When she was done draining she stood back up and snuck her way down the alley. She took that moment to turn back to Fafnir. “I feel like there’s a better way to do this but there are a whole lotttttt of drunks I can pick off as needed. I kinda vulture around bars and back alleys to keep things down low yanno? I haven’t really run into anything I can’t handle so far when doin it like this so I guess it’s easier maybe for me. You can do it without having to be so close though which probably makes it faster and safer?” It would be hella nice to cut down on the time she had to take out of her day to do this.

The super followed Beatrix as she went about her energy collection, one eye on her and the other on the their surroundings. His inner senses remained spread wide, alert for any enemy energy signatures that might signal someone was coming.
For all that he personally turned his nose up at the homeless and drunks, he had to admit that she was efficient, for a basic senshi. She didn't wake her target, she got the energy she needed quickly, and she disengaged without fuss. Honestly, it would take someone who knew what they were and what they were likely doing to guess at what she'd done. Fafnir had to admit to himself it was a low effort way of getting energy, whatever she thought about it.
"I think you did well." He said as she joined him, his arms crossed loosely over his chest. "Unfortunately, your range as a basic senshi is not very far... until you're promoted, you'll need to be in physical contact with your targets to drain them. Once you're super, you'll be able to drain without touching, and at eternal stage, you'll be able to drain multiple people at a distance."
"I think how you went about it actually works well. No fuss to alert anyone to what you're doing and the target isn't even really aware of it. They'll sleep more and maybe waked up a bit more tired, but they'll be fine. The only downside I can see to this method is that finding targets may be uncertain, since it relies heavily on a specific type of individual. And the unsavory surroundings, I suppose." He acknowledged. That was probably his biggest dislike of this method... dirty back alleys and reeking drunks were a major turn off.
"Let's collect a few more, and then I can take you back. I'll help you look for them this time, to speed up the process a bit. Keep your pen handy for when I call. We'll be able to cover more ground with two of us. Did you have any other questions? Have you had any combat training, or any training in using your magic?" That had been one of the first things he'd been trained it, after Labyrinthite had recruited him. Combat did not suit him terribly well, but he'd run into enough situations where he was glad he'd had the training to rely on.
