"I don't think that's what anyone should be doing..." Scheelite's own gaze had shifted to the feather, fingers moving to stroke it gently before tucking it back into his pocket. "I don't agree with it..not when they do it..not if we did it. I don't...like it, at all."
The boy nodded to the cat, offering her a "you're welcome" when thanked for his information. It wasn't something he liked talking about much at all, but if it'd maybe help the Senshi understand why they did the things they did? It...was for a good cause, that much was for certain.
"Honestly? Haven't fought since then. The sight of blood still makes me ill...I don't really want to fight any more, let alone anything...worse." He let that statement hang, because the last thing he wanted to do was frighten Hugbell by mentioning that he'd sworn off killing. Really, he didn't want her to know he had ever killed in the first place.

Hug-bell was rubbing ********* as she listened to both the feline and Schee talk. She nodded in agreement, "Yes thank you Scheelite." The gears were still turning in the child's head.
She looked at Scheelite, "Would it make you feel better if I tried to stop the senshi from being bullies?" She asked curiously butter yellow eyes watching him curiously, "I wouldn't want to fight either, but I don't want anyone else to end up like Wolframite and trying to...." Her voice faltered she wrinkled her nose, "I wouldn't want him trying to... to.... kill someone else that wasn't a part of those bullies."
She was trying to get over that he'd plagued her with nightmares the past few nights. Hug-bell would either fall asleep from exhaustion and not dream or try to work through it. She smiled at Schee, "I'm glad you didn't see my hand." She was looking at it, "I think he did it, sorta on accident, when he was ripping Barnaby up..." She didn't want to admit that it might've been intentional eventually. She looked at *********, "Do you think I have a chance of convincing the others not to be bullies?"

The tone in which the boy took as he mentioned swearing off anything worse than fighting was enough for the cat to understand what he had actually sworn off. "That is an admirable thing to swear off...." She would bite her tongue in regards to mentioning that it sounded more like he was avoiding what made him uncomfortable rather than doing it because he felt it was right versus wrong.
To the child, she casually mentioned "You know, the way you phrased that, you make it sound like you wish he had found one of those bullies and killed them. Which does not solve anything. If we live by an 'eye for an eye,' the full world would go blind." The cat leaned into the child's fingers as they continued to rub against her fur.
"It would honestly be a lot of work on your part, Hugbell. You'd have to convince the bullies they were bullies in the first place. I do not know the Blood Moon Court at all... but you may be dealing with very stubborn individuals." There was a pause. "Potentially more stubborn than a certain girl of mine." Sailor Iris definitely had a very one track mind, it was nearly impossible to try to argue or debate anything with her.
"If you think you can be more stubborn than them... perhaps you may be able to accomplish the task at hand."

"Those people are different. I've talked to Senshi before, I've talked to quite a few actually! They all sorta react different to talking to me. But those Senshi? I'm not sure there's any saving them. They're pretty stuck in their ways, and they're definitely of the hit first ask later type."
Scheelite eyed the two, taking a very definite worried expression as he thought over Hugbell's suggestion. Here was a Senshi he cared deeply about, and the very last thing he wanted to see was her hurt. Would the Blood Moon Court even think of listening to her? Or simply kill her or cast her aside for being a weak minded child?
"...Hugbell that's...very brave of you, but I am not sure they're the type of people you want to be dealing with at all. I'd feel tons better if they weren't out being bullies, but some people are so stuck in their ways they won't change. These...might be the bullies who just continue to knock over your sandcastle, rather than eventually sit beside you to rebuild it, ya know?"

Hug-bell watched as Scheelite had sworn off worse. She smiled, "Good, it's one step closer to bringing peace." She wasn't sure what worse he could mean but that was okay, any swearing off of something was a very good thing.
She paused and shook her head, "No, I'm just saying it's better them than us if he's going to attack someone. You shouldn't be mad at all of us because there's a few really mean bullies." She paused, "That said I hope someone can convince him to clam down. He could really get hurt because of him being a bully because they were." She seemed concerned about Wolframite even if he did hurt her and ********* paused, "I know," She said to both of them looking up at the sky for a second. "Despite them being a different court, we all come from the same place. All of us right? The Senshi and the Negaverse. They see to see that, all of them."
She smiled, "If someone showed them what they were doing was bad, and was perhaps persistent enough, I think we could change their mind. We just can't stoop down to their level."
She looked at Scheelite, "No matter how many times they kick my sandcastle over I'll rebuild it till they see I won't give up." The child nodded, "I don't want to see them hurt you, so I have to try, if they knock over my sandcastle I can rebuild it until they understand."

Despite how the child seemed adamant about convincing the Blood Moon Court that they were the bad ones, the feline seemed less than convinced the child had what it took. The way Scheelite spoke, the manx was even doubting her own team's ability to stand up against the likes of the Blood Moon. They were organized and obviously had access to "tools" that none of her own senshi could dream of getting their hands on.
"Bravery means nothing if you do not have a good plan." The cat shifted a bit in the child's arms so she could somewhat sit up to face the Captain better.
"Might I ask the ranks of the senshi you remember from the Blood Moon?" She suspected there were high ranking senshi in the group, but in all honesty, she was trying to do this for the child's benefit. Hugbell needed to know what she'd be up against if the senshi did not feel like reasoning.

Hugbell was brave, Scheelite had to give her that. Here was a child willing to put herself in the middle of a war to try and get people to see eye to eye. It was brave! Very brave! ...Scheelite was just afraid it wouldn't -work-. He had seen with his own eyes what the Blood Moon Court was capable of, and the terrible truth of it had scared the blonde captain right off the field of battle. The idea of blood still made him ill, what would happen to Hugbell if she saw something like that?
Or became victim of something like that?... He couldn't imagine poor little Hugbell being caught up in something like that, it'd be terrible!
The cat's question brought him back to focus, and the blonde gave a nod before rattling off the information he knew. That would help Hugbell see, right? If she knew the ranks, she'd be less inclined to go after them and he wouldn't have to worry about her!
"Their leader is very powerful...I'm not sure what your ranks are called? But it felt similar in level to our Generals. I personally encountered one that felt like a Captain, and a group that felt like our Lieutenants."
Encountered...more like killed. But he wasn't going to say that.
"I know there's others that felt like Captains, but I'm not very sure of their names or actual ranks names. I'm sorry I can't be of more help."
At least he was a polite Negaverser.

Hug-bell tilted her head as she listened, "Eternal?" She asked looking at ********* curiously, before looking back at Schee, "Did she have wings?"
The child remembered when Polaris was upgraded. The fact she had seen this made the chibi look curiously in thought. "Well, I'm super now." She said tapping her chin.
She was looking at ********* for confirmation."

"No apologies, Captain Scheelite." The cat sounded as pleasant as ever as she chimed in to reassure the boy. "You are plenty of help."
The child had chimed in with the correct terminology, and the cat simply acknowledged it with a nod of her head, accented with the jingling of her bell collar. In the back of her mind, she knew that a group composed of what sounded like mostly Super Senshi and potentially an Eternal Senshi could be a challenge. Especially if they did things the way in which Scheelite had described. If there was any sort of conflict, it didn't sound like her team would be able to do much, since they had an eternal, a super, two regulars, and a chibi. And to make matters worse, the eternal really was more like a super since she had still yet to figure out her final attack.
And then now, Hugbell still seemed eager to try to take them on by herself.
"Now, here's a serious, serious question for you, Captain." The cat didn't sound even remotely serious.
"Why haven't you pet me yet?" The cat giggled slightly. "I promise I don't bite!"

"I....think she had wings. There was a lot of crazy stuff going on and I only caught a glimpse of her, so I'm not very sure..."
Scheelite fidgeted a bit, taking note of the words super and eternal. It'd probably be a good thing to note the true names of the Senshi's ranks, just in case the need to describe them ever arose once again. Zink would appreciate it, at the very least.
Mention of a serious question snapped Scheelite back to attention and the captain's eyes quickly found their way to *********. Serious question? Crap...here it comes. Probably some request to stay away from Hugbell or--
Wait. Petting? Scheelite looked vastly confused for just a moment before the blonde lit up like a kid on Christmas Day.
"I er...didn't think it was okay....but if you really don't mind..."
A gloved hand slowly reached out, moving to gently pet ********* on the back. A grin lined the boy's face the entire time.

Hug-bell nodded, "Those wings are pretty." She seemed slightly wistful about them. "Though I guess in a big battle it'd be hard to actually watch something like that and not be hurt..."
She frowned as she thought about what the others had said before ********* mentioned serious question. Her eyes looked at the kitty curiously, not thinking that ********* would request that Scheelite stay away from the child. She giggled however when the question was asked. "Silly Scheelite. As long as you don't hurt her you can pet her."
She watched as the officers face lit up like it was time to open Christmas presents. Hug-bell also pulled out another one of the cocoanut bars she'd brought for ********* from her hoodie. "Did you want another cocoanut bar?" She asked the manx, her head tilted curiously. "Or should I save it for later?" She would've offered Scheelite one but it was incidentally the last one she brought with her.

Laughter was such a contagious thing. First ********* had giggled, and then the child did, which caused the manx to giggle out once more. However, Hugbell's statement was not 100% true. In an effort to give the Captain some more accurate information, she spoke up.
"It is fine if you pet me as long as you aren't hurting me. However, not all cats enjoy being pet, if you could believe that! If anything, it doesn't hurt to ask if the cat is able to give you a legitimate answer."
It seemed Scheelite at least had some experience with dealing with felines, for the petting wasn't something painful. Some children pet too rough, and other non-cat people also had issues petting in a decent fashion. This was a decent middle ground. A purr or two escaped her before she perked up at another question.
"Oooooo... I would love another one if you are offering, Hugbell!" Green eyes were now on the child, as if the whole world was now revolving around the child. Food did make the world go round, at least if you asked *********>
