Derpraline was all but too happy to bounce into the collapsed senshi's lap with a happy kitten chirp of approval. "You are senshi now. You gotta do this almost every night, okay?" Her tiny little face nuzzled under his hand, looking for him to pet and scritch at her ears, taking up some of that shock.

A weight fell into his lap as well, along with a smile from the purring kitten. "Senshiphone. Can call other senshi. Or Derp! Just aim and take a picture, and call. Find the princess. Sleepy now..." After all, it was not an easy thing for her to awaken a senshi and run away from a youma all at the same time!

So it was that Orion was sitting in front of the smoking remains of a youma, having just attained the first step on his destined path, with a sleeping guardian cat who was absolutely no help at all in his lap.

Life was grand, wasn't it?
