"mmm...naw..." He said smiling... "I man, your clearly self dependent, you don't need me or my help and your more worried that I'll make you look bad...so if I don't give you them you'll look THAT much more badass... thanks for the slow it down attack though, pretty cool."

Nemesis twitched. The b*****d! If she hadn't used her attack against the youma, she would be using it on him right now. She folded her arms at her chest again, mindless that she was bleeding. The blood stains would be gone when she next powered up, so why worry about it? She could take care of it when she got home, and in the end really didn't need the band aids. It helped Nemesis figure out what kind of senshi this b*****d was.
"Look bad in front of who? The youma I just helped you dust. ******** hell, you're a p***k. Whatever. And, for your information, it's not a slow down attack, it's a sort of paralysis. Its movements were not slowed, they were stopped." This was going to degenerate quickly, she realized. When Nemesis didn't like someone, it was hard for her not to show it.

"Well.. regardless of how you -meant- it it sure sounded just now like you were worried about looking good for your -team-"
He said calmly.
"Maybe I just don't have enough to go on here, but you certainly don't take joshing around very well that I can tell, though that could be not knowing ME either. I'm not out here to -die-, and I at least pretend to have a healthy respect for pain, but I'm not scared of it, though I realize people think that's strange."
He leaned against the wall, dirty though it was and smudged dirt onto his white coat as he tucked a hand into one of his belts flashing bare abs under the odd cape...coat thing.
"Now...your a pretty young woman, and I can see where you wouldn't like being beat to s**t... but I did -try- and assist you, as I was told we should, and I did help you kill it, for all my help was worth. I would -very- much appreciate it if your chip got tossed long enough to say "that could have been better but hey thanks, and yes, I would like some of those bandaids"... if that's not too much trouble.

"My team is so horrible that I look good to them on a bad day," Nemesis replied with just a slightly cocky edge to her voice. Of course, she valued her team. Inwardly, she was growing rather fond of them. Outwardly? She seemed as distant as ever. She was warming up to them, to a degree, and she didn't outright snap at them anymore. But, her goals still, in the end, seemed to differentiate from their's. Her ideas how to go about things were different, and it was something she couldn't forget when she met up with her team.
"I don't, not in something like this. When I'm out here, hunting youma, it's not a game, when you get down to the grit and bone. This is necessarily saving someone's life." Outside of her senshi duties, she was a little more relaxed, she could 'josh' around. Right now, though, like this, she wouldn't, especially when she wanted to appear superior to Vulpeculae.
"Thank you for the compliment," she said thinly, and did not elaborate to thank him for anything else. "But, I could have dealt with the youma on my own. I have dealt with plenty of youma by myself. Your arrival screwed me up for a bit, and essentially I probably would not have needed your aid at all. And, since you've seemed to retract your offer for band aids, I'm not going to bother myself with asking for them again."

"So your pretty much good enough that we shouldn't have to worry about this battle at all? Cause that's...sure what it sounds like... " He tilted his head up slightly.
"If you really want to save lives.. you can't be afraid of getting hurt either... call it a personal opinion but If you spent a few minutes giving tips rather than swishing your hips to prove your better... I think you'd have made sure me and whomever else you run into does better. Pay if forward, save lives..."

Nemesis was not used to having someone outright challenge what she was saying, and it was, quite frankly, not making her a happy camper. "I'm not afraid of getting hurt. I try not to get hurt, because it effects my chances of winning a fight. You stupidly put yourself in range of getting hurt - that is what I consider idiotic. It might be brave, but it's entirely stupid." She still doubted that this senshi had the instinct of self-preservation. He hadn't seemed the least bit wary of the danger to himself when he attacked the youma. It was good in some incidents, and bad in a whole lot of others.
"Swishing my hips?" she asked, her voice raising just a pitch. What had inspired that sort of comment? She certainly hadn't been swishing her hips! As if to prove that she hadn't, she immediately stiffened and made sure her hips weren't swishing at all. "I would, you know, have been interested in helping you out, but at this rate you're kind of... oh, a little annoying." Then again, in the past she had helped a senshi who had made her facepalm over and over again, because she had been concerned with the senshi surviving through the week.
Ah, she was good every once in a while.

"Ahh yeah, all girls swish, at least a little, some add a little more -pop- than others, which you could honestly get away with. But I wouldn't freak about it unless your a guy under there, then I'd worry about swishing..." He quirked a smile casually and folded his arms.
"Hmm... so annoying though, you won't help me better save lives because... I irritate you. Because I said maybe you should say -thanks? Umm, Because I'm not agreeing with you? I mean I'm down for worshiping a pretty girl if she's -old- enough but... I normally prefer dinner and dancing first. But thats... a very interesting reason not to be willing to help when its a rather serious job."

Was he... trying to hit on her? Wouldn't it have been clear to him that she wasn't the least bit interested, and in fact disliked him far more than she liked him. "I don't think I want to add an extra 'pop' to how I 'swish' my hips." If she did it, she was unaware of it. Nemesis did not see how she would be swishing her hips in the middle of battle, anyways. She certainly wasn't going to KO the enemy by shaking her hips. It might be a good distraction technique... but she would not degrade herself in such a way.
"You seem to be doing just fine by yourself, really," she insisted with a flippant motion of her hand. Nemesis couldn't help but an arch a brow at the other senshi, she could dismiss the first attempt at a flirt, but she wasn't sure a second one was as easy to allow slide by. "I don't mind being worshiped," she said with a slim smile. Well, it was true. Of course, dating and dancing wasn't a part of the equation. She did enjoy having respect, and worship was as close to respect as she suspected she would get from this senshi. "Anyways, why would I help someone who doesn't seem to take it seriously? You looked like you were having a ball fighting that youma."

"And your saying people shouldn't enjoy their work?" He looked wonderingly at her and rubbed his chin, it would have worked better with a goatee. "Wow... I'll have to remember that next career day, Self... be miserable, your not allowed to enjoy your work regardless of how many basic male adrenaline kicking instincts it serves, to save humanity you must be MISERABLE... Thank you... I feel enlightened!" He beamed.

"I don't think I personally enjoy getting attacked at - afterward, sure, I get a good feeling. I know what I'm fighting for, which is likely more than a lot of senshi know. When I kill a youma, I get a feeling of pride, hell, relief even, knowing that I've kept the people I value safe." If anything happened to the people she knew and cared about, she would be devastated. They were the reason she fought. She wasn't so sure about the other senshi, but Nemesis fought specifically for the people she loved.
Anyone else?
...She cared less, but would still fight to protect them. She was growing, she was learning that every good life deserved to be saved. "You're welcome, a*****e," she said with a soft snort, not entirely appreciating his attitude, but she no longed looked as if she was going to tear his head off of his neck and shoulders.

"Any time princess, glad to know that you secretly enjoy it too... pride IS enjoying it you know..."
He leaned forward just a little conspiratorially....
"Just don't let them catch you, serious business you know, like the internet and cheerleading, but I mock those too..."
He smiled and it was oddly friendly for someone who'd just been opinion fencing.

He leaned forward, and she very distinctively leaned back, deciding not to give him the opportunity to get too close. This senshi was slowly working his way back onto her good side, though. She wasn't snapping at him, especially since he stopped disagreeing with her. It seemed like the first lesson in winning Nemesis' favor was agreeing with her. "Not so secret, now," she said with a small roll of her eyes.
"Yeah, yeah, keep your distance." Nemesis held her bloody arm in front of her, to emphasize greater that there would be distance between them. "But, didn't the cat that awakened you... give you the details on what to do? Honestly, they should have, and if you don't know, you weren't paying attention." She was showing some willingness to help Vulpeculae... some.

"Hmm... fight Yoma, fight "Negas"... restore star-seeds right?"
He tilted his head and chuckled softly at her 'keep your distance' his expression said there was an very deep amusement with that as well.
"Oh... and wear the super-hero outfits while you do it." He added with a wry grin and pushed his sunglasses up his nose.
"Am I missing something?"

Nemesis paused, eying Vulpeculae speculatively as he briefed over what he knew (and by briefed, she really meant it, the man seemed to have no skill in elaboration). "Good enough," she replied finally. At least he seemed to have some direction in what to do. It was sufficient enough for Nemesis, and she really didn't want to spend her evening instructing him. What he knew now was enough that he could figure out the rest.
"Just, give me a call if you need me - I have one of those cellphones too. I might answer, depending on my mood." There, she could feel better about herself now. She extended aid to Vulpeculae in the case that he needed it, and only when he needed it.
