Welcome to Gaia! ::

Sodom

There was no resistance to the pulling, the heavier man following after his demanding redhead like a loyal mutt.

"Yeah, well, you can punish me for it later."

Despite the exhaustion setting in on his tired muscles, he offered his partner a sly grin before they disappeared into the exiting crowd.

Sweetite

Sweetite didn't know what was happening. One minute she was arguing with Sinbo the Dumbo and the next, Zircon was grabbing hold of her again and they were poofing out of the room.

Ugh - not teleportation again!

She was going to have to invest in some Dramamine or something, at this rate.

Elara

She found herself out of breath and confused as all get-out.

Who was Delta? Who had caused all of this? More importantly, why? None of the questions or answers had made sense and all of the questions (English and non) had made any more sense than the computer's initial analysis and commentary.

Elara had never been exposed to a battle of this caliber before. Heck, if she was being completely honest, she'd never been exposed to a proper battle before now and here she was, scattered among various factions she'd never even met yet, trying (and eventually succeeding) to vanquish the computer monster.... thing.

Man, it was a lot to take in.

Clutching the small kitten tightly, there was additional comfort that came in the form of her new senshi friend's hand touching the small of her back. This whole super hero gig had been weird, unusual and pretty lonely over the past couple of months but with the new introduction of Denebola, Altais and Themisto, Elara was starting to feel like she'd found a purpose with the sailor scout... thing.

And hey - she'd finally gotten to use her attacks on more than just target practicing! Fancy that!

Nodding her head towards the other girl's instructions, she kept little Lace close to her as they traveled towards the nearest exit.

Lieutenant Strengite

Strengite felt immensely better after some buttbow senshi did a little abracadabra on her but she still felt a little like roadkill. At least her head wasn't trying to fall off anymore, it was just normal pressure. A typical headache from over extension or something she got from working on her computer too long rather than a ticking time bomb shoved in her temporal lobe about to explode. Her tongue also didn't hurt as badly and it seemed like her nose wasn't bleeding anymore but how much was that time or was that also connected to the magic the order chick tossed her way? Did it really matter? Nope not at all.

Especially since if it did she would then sort of owe the other lady something, a thank you at least, and Strengite didn't want to do that. It really had little to no benefit for herself... although if she could get the goodie goodie on her side then she could have a personal healer on tap. That had some merit but she didn't really have time to follow it up right now since there was still a fight going on so she just tossed the senshi a quick wave in thanks and climbed to her feet, ready to kick some alien a**.

Only to have her whole, rambo/terminator/die hard moment ruined when Delta, the bust like hologram, show back up and just ******** shut the big guy down. Just pulled his plug as if she was a badass programer or something. It didn't really matter all things considering she apparently had to push a self destruct button in order to do it as everything seemed to start to collapse, including their floor! ********! The Lieutenant scrambled to get to her feet only stumble back to the ground when the floor picked up speed as it dropped faster and faster. It wasn’t crumbling beneath their very feet it was descending in one whole piece. It was deliberately doing it. They were all in one giant elevator as the rest of the monument was crumbling around them.

It wasn’t long before a blast of morning air filled Strengite’s lungs, a welcome change to the burnt wires and general electrical smell that seemed to have sunk into her very pores. Dazed and more then a little confused the newbie officer watched as the building collapsed and faded into nothing, leaving them all on the grass of the park with morning light just breaking. Had that all really just happened? Her eye was drawn to something in the grass by her hand, a necklace of some sort. She absently grabbed it as she got to her feet. At this point all Strengite wanted to do was take one long a**, hot a**, shower then crawl into her bed to sleep for a week. Sadly she couldn’t do that, she had a deadline and this little ‘vacation’ had put her behind schedule.

The lieutenant staggered away from the group, absently waving at Beni knowing full well she would text him later, and headed home. She might have had to work but that didn’t mean she wasn’t going to take a damn shower first. ******** this city and it’s weird as s**t.

DMS Super Ptolemaeus

Before went on their way toward the mirror Acubens had suggested, the super looked around one last time to try to spot the White Moon Super Senshi of his height with the Fairy Fire sphere (Super Sailor Bestla). Or the chibi senshi in high school who had been decked in yellow and gone out of her way to help him (Chibi Sailor Onnie). It bothered him that he'd never gotten their names. Worse still, he hadn't been able to express to the super how he'd admired her attempt to go back for the Negaverse general, nor had he gotten the chance to thank the high schooler for her assistance. It seemed likely that they had already departed, but if fate deemed it right that they meet again one day, he would be sure to remember and tell them what he had to say then.

He did manage to catch a glimpse of the cosmos knight with the newly-styled dress (Chauvet), however. It was only her retreating back and he hadn't gotten a chance to thank or exchange proper introductions with her either, but he couldn't have blamed her in the least for bolting while she had the chance. After they had all been summoned there against their will, it was natural that people would want to return to the lives they had been plucked from in order to resume them as quickly as possible. Even if it was simply to return home to bed in order to sleep.

Not Ptolemaeus, though; not yet. He still had the other Dark Mirror Senshi to take to Acubens'. Even as he was preparing to head out, he caught sight of the bespectacled fellow court member who had spoken Thai to Delta previously (DMC Itokawa) and made his way over. Pressing his hands together in a prayer-like fashion, he bowed, performing what was called a wai as he said, "Sawadee ka! (สวัสดี ค่ะ)"

It was a greeting he had picked up while working as a waiter in a Thai restaurant which was how he had been able to recognize the other's language upon hearing it spoken. That was, unfortunately, the extent of Ptolemy's knowledge of Thai, excepting a few curse words he had learned flung about the kitchen by the cooks. Still, he thought it might have been sufficient to express his intentions well enough.

"We're heading over to Acubens' place to cool down and talk things over. Why don't you come along?" He offered what he hoped was a friendly smile, gesturing to their group. "Not sure how much English you might speak or understand, but this could be a good learning experience. And I know more than one of us is curious to learn about you."

Placing his hands lightly on the shoulders of the potentially Thai young man, he began to steer him forward, keeping his grip light enough that the other could break free if he so chose. As the guy appeared to be rather lost, however, the tattooed sailor scout doubted he would reject the offer of guidance. After having lost his opportunities with the others, he wasn't about to let slip the chance to get this stranger's name before letting him out of his sight. It would probably just take a bit more work in communicating to gather it, but he could handle that. It would be fun.

Once he had glanced over his shoulder to double-check who was following, he announced loudly, "Dark Mirror Court, we're heading out now if you wanna join us at Eternal Acubens'. Anyone who doesn't know the way can follow me. Otherwise, farewell if I don't see you there!" And with that settled, Ptolemy started off toward the mirror at the communal plots, carefully directing his new captive ahead of him by the weight of his palms on his shoulders.

Ptolemaeus Exit

DMC Itokawa

While some people hung around and others moved to leave Itokawa was just heading off, planning to head home. He was slow in moving, his mind trying to figure out how he'd deal with his family when he got home. There was no way they wouldn't notice him coming in and they would question him, he really couldn't lie to them either, and it would only be worse if they'd noticed his absence and how long he'd been gone for. That was why someone, another dark mirror senshi, was able to catch up to him. It wasn't a surprise for someone to approach him, given how many people were there, but he was surprised when they greeted him. While it was clear Thai was not their native language the fact they knew the language and had greeted him in such a way was unexpected and pleasant, exciting even.

Pressing his hands together in a similar fashion he bowed as well, his thumbs touching his nose as far as how high up his hands were. He was showing as much respect as he could, as he was sure this person had more experience than he did - they felt like it. Greeting them in Thai as well. "Sa wat dii krap." He knew little of what the other went on to say, English still a work in progress, but he didn't understand the offer to follow the other along - so he nodded. "Very little...still working on. New to country." He'd learned enough that he could understand when someone asked about his proficiency in English, and how to tell them where he was at. It helped to be able to inform people of that, and to understand when they were asking about it.

"Know much Thai?" He questioned the other, somewhat hopeful. He doubted the other knew much but it would be nice if he did. "Came from Bangkok few months ago." Letting the stranger lead him, as it seemed the other knew more than he did and knew they needed to be somewhere.
