Despite not being a particularly violent person, the crack of the elephant youma's head was especially satisfying. It meant no more running, and no more frantic attempts at making up gameplans on the spot. In the incredibly unsatisfying category, however, was the fact that some of the mulch-gunk was sticking to his shoes. Grody.
He carefully stepped over the pieces of youma and swingset as well, shaking his feel like a cat would shake its wet paws. He didn't speak until he was satisfied with the cleanliness of his bright purple shoes.
"Oh! I'm sorry. I guess I was too busy to think about it, between the kitty and the weirdo monster and...well, sometimes I forget normally. But I'm Sailor Pyxis, Senshi of Fireflies! It was really great fighting monsters with you."
With a smile and a quick glance to be sure nobody else was around, he relaxed to let the shimmering glow overcome him again, changing his clothes back into his normal civilian getup. His jewelry only needed slight adjusting, but everything else was just as he left it. The whole changey thing was pretty amazing, in his opinion.

"I'm, er, Sailor Europa- I don't know what of," she hurried to reply, because he was doing something odd. There was a glow and then-
"Pavel?!" she asked incredulously. Well, that explained who the kid reminded her of. "Hold on. One second." She closed her eyes and screwed up her face, trying to figure out how to change back. It took a bit of doing and a couple attempts, but then she managed it. Her sweats looked more or less like they had before she'd transformed, including mud on her knees.
"Hi," she said, and then, "First night out," as if it explained anything.
There was something she was forgetting.
"Crap, I left my camera somewhere in the woods!"

There was nothing to do but stare. No way was this Tallulah! But it had to be. Unless she had a secret twin who wore the same awesome star hairclip and lived in the same city, and even Pasha knew that the odds of that were extremely unlikely.
He flung his arms around her in a hug. "This is SO cool! I can't believe we're both...you know...special people! I mean, I knew you were a special person...another kind of special person before this, but...but!" Not the most intelligent of words, but he felt as if it got the point across.
As he let her go, his smile faded into a look of concern. "Oh no, we have to find it! Is that all we had with you? It can be like a scavenger hunt. A really super urgent one."

Tallulah patted her pockets and found her house keys were still there, and nodded. "The camera's all I'm missing," she said, and started towards the woods, past the wreckage of the trampled bench and the elephant's path of destruction. Wow! It was really good she'd gotten out of the way, otherwise she wouldn't have even made it to the talking cat part, just the squashed schoolgirl part.
She retraced her steps, remembering she'd gone down a fork in the path and then fallen over this little ledge and--
"There it is!" she yelled, and ran over to pull her camera from the base of a tree. It didn't look any worse for the wear, and upon further inspection she found it had been recording this whole time. "Wow, just my luck. Pavel, I found it!"
She yawned. This had been a long night and she was ready to go home, take a shower, and hit the sack.

Pasha was all set to help her in her search for the video camera, bu the combination of his suddenly tired legs and the fact that he frankly had no idea where she might have dropped it kept him rooted in place. Instead, he watched on from a distance as her cheering squad, fighting off the occasional yawn, glancing every now and then at the crushed elephant thing to make sure it didn't magically animate as it had before. He definitely didn't feel up to jumping all over it again so soon.
As he saw her approaching with the camera and the call of victory, he clapped in appreciation of her excellent finding ability. "Yay, I'm really glad! It would be sad if it were messed up. Or kidnapped." A yawn forced its way through, and he stretched. "I think I've gotta go to bed so I don't sleep all of tomorrow. Plus, there are gonna be all sorts of shooting stars tomorrow night, and I have to be awake for it! It's the Leonid meteor shower, and there's gonna be a bajillion shooting stars per minute. Roughly." He stretched again before giving her a hopeful thumbs-up. "You should come too, okay? Same place!"

Tallulah turned off her camera and tucked it into the spacious pocket of her sweatpants for safe keeping. She walked tiredly back to where he was waiting, stifling yawns as she went, returning in time to hear his invitation.
"Sounds like fun," she said, smiling tiredly. It would be nice to relax instead of, well, chasing rumors all over town and now this. The pen was in her pocket with her house keys. She gave him a thumbs up and began walking slowly in the direction of her house. "See you then!"

Though he was exhausted, he smiled with exceptional energy, pleased that she'd agreed. "Awesome! I can't wait for it." All of his body was beginning to ache just enough for him to notice, but he still nearly skipped towards home.
It was times like this that made him glad that his room was on the first floor - he slowly pushed open his window and crawled inside, making sure his necklaces didn't get caught on anything. Still smiling, he rolled over onto his bed, not even bothering to kick off his shoes before snuggling up to a pillow.
Maybe the who Senshi thing wouldn't be so bad.
