Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Arachne couldn't resist this. Rolling for 4 patrols this week -1 for base level senshi))

He'd gotten the message on his phone, god that still weirded him out, and couldn't resist. A chance to prove how amazing he was at something? God yes. He was so there and all over that s**t.

He'd lurked in the back of the group as they listened to the girl in the -really tiny- skirt speak. He so should have sat closer, even more so given that he had a damn camera now. Ah well, lesson learned. Whatever this whole game was seemed like it would be fun. Kill a few youma, take pictures, get bragging rights, done deal.

It would mean sneaking out more often but he was starting to like this whole super hero thing. Why not add a bit more fun into it by making game out of it? Maybe he could even use this as an opportunity to get some of the pretty girls to work with him.

Niflhel gave a slight wave as he was introduced. He was indeed focused on making sure nothing bad showed up. "Shouldn't there be like... idk talking cats at this thing too or more body guards." He had taken a chance to ask when occasionally handing a senshi a camera.

He paused glancing at the crystal and raising an eyebrow, "That's like those that were at the Ball isn't it? And that wrestlers belt?" It at least seemed like that's probably what it was. He watched the senshi that were talking to Polaris before going back to mostly focusing his attention else were for the time being.

Polaris offered a half shrug to Niflhel, her smile faltering for a moment. It had not slipped Polaris' mind that the large gathering of energies might cause problems when she'd been in the planning stages. She too had hoped some cats would come to help with the festivites.. but unfortunately, despite meeting almost a half dozen of the guardians she wasn't on super familar terms with any of them. Not since Astraea quit showing up... "I was hoping some of the cats would show up.. they got the message too but.. hopefully it will be okay."

"There are a lot of powerful people here, so even if someone comes sniffing around we should hopefully be able to take care of it. And we won't be hanging around long."

Her eyes returned to the crystal. Seven? In her mind she was trying to go through and count the ones she knew about. If Maia was right and they had more.. well that was good news atleast. Would it be possible to try and reclaim the ones that the negaverse already had?

[ I'm.. not really rolling, Hygiea hasn't started patrols yet so with her handicap she goes into the negatives, me thinks xD ]

Hygiea was momentarily distracted by the orange phone held tightly in her hands. First it was out because of a message, then trying to find where the message was leading after she managed to sneak out of the house - her parents were away, Max was spending his last summer before college with friends and Conner was a horrible watch. Now she was holding the phone up to all the new sen-shi-people she had never encountered before, as ********* had instructed - to get their information for future use. As drab as the phone was, it was beginning to seem more and more useful with each time she had it out.

"What?" The orange clad little girl blinked, looking to Hugbell before realization crossed her face. "Oh yeah," the cameras they were supposed to get. Hygiea scooted towards the stage, taking the yellow clad senshi's offered hand to pull herself up on the stage as well. Sure, she would have probably gotten up by herself but the summer cold she had gotten from camp was still effecting her even as it was receeding to just a few sniffs and coughs here and there.

"Thanks!" She chirped as she went back to the phone, allowing Hugbell to talk for the both of them as she continued to snap her phone in everyone's direction.

When she got to Nifhel, she frowned and tried the buttons again. And then again, "how come you don't work?" Hygiea asked, perplexed.

Hug-bell giggled at Hygiea when she said Niflhel didn't work, "I think it's 'cause he's not a senshi." She replied looking back to Polaris taking a camera smiling. "Maybe!"

She wasn't going to mention she went out alone sometimes. The Super Chibi swayed slightly looking at all the older senshi, trying to see them all. "If Hygiea can get out of the house I'll be more than glad to patrol with my friend. If not I'm sure I can find someone to work with. I'll make sure to call you if I run into problems." She gave a soft nod.

With a pause thinking about the fact they could buy a lot of candy. However Hug-bell was thinking more along the lines of a club house, and then the left overs could go into candy. She smiled and nodded though, "Yes a lot of candy, maybe some toys, new clothes...." She avoided the topic of the club house though, it was just a thought for now.

Niflhel lofted a brow at the kid, stooping down looking at the orange haired girl. "Like the other kid said I'm not a senshi. I'm a knight. We don't get cool phones like you guys do." He smiled, and then looked at Polaris.

"Are you going to start adopting the kids?" He asked with a chuckle as he leaned on her slightly before looking back to the rest of those she knew. "So... guys, would any of you mind if I tag along once with Polaris? Just to see how you guys work as a team with defeating Youma? Or would that just be a girls night out for you lot?" He asked curiously before pausing to hand off a camera to a menshi.

There was something humorous when Sailor Castor came in and his brother Pollux followed him, arms crossed, his expression that of a pout. The eternal looked like he was a kid in a candy store, the new blood? He looked like a disapproving parent. The sight of other eternal senshi had Castor all but grinning. This wasn't unexpected, but rather nice to see, especially that one senshi who wasn't an eternal. The student had gotten herself a bit of a bump.

"Ladies." A few might have recognized the voice. One in particular might have also gotten - "Hey Jelly butt, it's been a while." Castor was royal alright, a royal pain in the a**. Walking over to the group of higher powered senshi, Castor stopped at the sight of the chibis. "More killer kids. ******** s**t-"
"Castor." Pollux's eyes narrowed as the eternal sighed. "Right right, watch the language. Anyway, Ladiessss." His swagger was back on, going right into a teasing mode. "I thought I would drop in an-"
"One, you're married, stop flirting, Two, he dragged me here so I could," fingers were raised for the air quotations, "get more connected."
"You're being a mega d**k."
"Language." Pollux's voice was unimpressed thus far with his brother's antics.
"Cacasentenze" Castor was getting visibly angry at the other senshi.
"Oh how nice. You actually do know some useful Italian minchione." Pollux side stepped his brother and gave the more experienced senshi a slight bow. "Castor's rudeness aside, I'm Pollux, senshi of frost." He held his hand out to great them. "And yes, unlucky enough to be related to the royal stronzo."

It was Castor's turn to pout.

Castor laughed, "True, plus I didn't really ah..part with party on the best notes. Life was all over the place, and just yeah." He pulled off his left glove, showing of the band before sliding the glove back into place. "Life. It's pretty ******** amazing."
Pollux made groaned as Castor cursed once more. "Anyway, I figured 'Aw what the heck', been a while since I saw you, Pollux here needed to get out of his little comfort bubble, and well hey any excuse to kill a youma or an agent of the negaverse?" The smile was a tarnished one of the past. It was less joking, less light and carefree. Reality had finally caught up to him and taken some of that ideology from him. Death wasn't a joke anymore. "I am all for it."

Pollux gave Polaris's hand a small squeeze before letting go. "Pleasure. I admit the idea of killing for cash has been-" The snake like smile was all but reeking of some less then pure intentions. "It's been something I've considered perusing myself as a side venture." Camera in hand he examined it, before putting it into his sash. "Still, the idea to take a photo is a great risk to safety, with any luck the flash will stun the creatures before they can get too close to cause damage."
"You make it sound like you want to do this after all." Castor slapped a hand on the other senshi's shoulder, which was quickly shrugged off.
"And what about you?" Pollux was glaring, Castor was smirking.
" And what about me?"
"Why not try it yourself, you whine about my quota but I hardly see you on patrol."
"I'm at home, you know that."
"While your real home is being over run by Chaos?" Castor's lip twitched at that one, while Pollux smirked, his ego rising.
"Fine dickbutt, you want to see a Royal Rumble? I'll bring it." The senshi of hail looked for a camera before snatching one up. "And I'll bring it all night long." A smirk at Europa and Perseus. "Long and hard."

Pollux crossed his arms and chuckled. "See Polaris, the thing with Castor is just to know how to handle him." He sighed again when Castor flirted a second time. "Or rather, how to deal with him. You think being married he'd not joke about such things."

"Charming as ever, Sailor Castor," replied Europa, quirking a wry eyebrow. A part of her couldn't help but be amused with Castor's innuendos - it was true she had always held a certain fondness for him, even as infuriating as he was. Probably because he had been one of the first senshi she had met. The first ones always seemed to leave far more of an impression than the dozens you met afterwards. "Who's the lucky lady? Should I send a housewarming gift?"

She turned her attention to Pollux, smiling gamely. "We should patrol together sometime," Europa told him. "And swap horror stories about your..." Relatives? Pollux and Castor was a particularly interesting pair, and she could extrapolate from there - or at least thought she could. They certainly looked enough alike to be siblings. "Your brother?" she guessed.

"I'm Sailor Europa," she added. "Not Jellybutt." Although Castor could probably call her Jellybutt all he wanted and she wouldn't do more than glare at him crossly. He probably knew that. She was predictable like that.
