It would have been easier if the eternal senshi could just spew out her guts on the subject at hand. It would have just been easier to say what she knew, which was actually quite a bit. However, she firmly kept her lip shut on the matter.
"You won't remember everythin' in one go... I told ya... it is gonna take time. I don't have th'answers ya seek... only you can get the answers yourself." There was a pause before she also added "...and th'cat can't help ya either... she's worse off in all honesty, since she ain't from any of th'asteroids..."
She reached one arm up, stretching it back a bit, still looking at him intently. "...Memories ain't jus' rememberin' what happened... it's rememberin' other things too. Yer gonna remember emotions ya once felt... The good, th'bad, th'ugly..." Finishing with the stretch, she rolled her arm about at the shoulder. "Ya just gotta be stronger than yer memories... don't let them get ya down..."

Victoria nodded softly still rubbing his neck, taking a small step back as Iris continued. He glanced back to where he'd seen the girl. "R-right."
He sighed and when she finished talking he started forward again. "It's just unnerving to watch someone getting yelled at like that." He muttered, not glancing back to see if Iris was following. He knew she was going to follow anyways.
He shook his head, watching carefully for something else to strike at him. Almost as if he was worried about it, though the rest of the trip seemed uneventful. "I wonder if some of these places can be restored." He mused as he walked along.

Victoria's movements had become tense. Iris could somewhat relate, but it had been over a year since her first time encountering her own world and encountering her first memory. Even after encountering the first memory, she didn't know what it was until ********* had explained it to her at a later time.
His question probably wasn't an uncommon one, but nobody has asked her about it before. Then again, it wasn't like people were begging her left and right to go to their homeworlds. "I doubt it... unless yer an overly talented handy-man..." was her response. Her own world, she wouldn't be able to restore anything, since she simply didn't have the resources to work with. She'd need large timber to rebuild the carts, since the originals would pretty much disintegrate with a simple touch. Timber wasn't natural to the Iridian asteroid, and even she didn't have enough power to bring timber from Earth to her old home. It was just too big to bring along.
"Restorin' buildin's and junk doesn't mean much though without th'people..." She brushed her hand against a column, thumb easily picking up some dust from the touch.

There was a pause as he turned towards Iris listening to her as she spoke. He was still nervous specially with such violent memories running around. "I suppose it doesn't, but... it's kind of sad to see things in such.... ruin."
Victoria couldn't start to fathom what it'd take to rebuild all of this. Asides from am army or two.
The rest of the trip towards the stadium was actually less eventful. However, as he walked onto the field something felt like it was welling up inside of him. There were voices again, he turned towards the pedestal. "Iris... I don't like this place."
Was about the only statement he could think of as he watched a pair, talking.
"Victoria, you know you don't have to do this." It was some older lady, she looked rather regal.
"I know, but what else could I do? They're never going to let us amount to anything, I'm the only hope we have left." The girl addressed as Victoria sat there staring at the older woman.
"You could do anything you want dear, You keep talking about wanting to play in the events."
"Yes but I have to be a man to play in them you know that."
Present day Victoria was standing there watching and paused, ".... I was.... a girl?" It sounded strange, foreign, impossible even, and it pretty well broke Victoria's mind to stand there and watch as his past self loathed her position, yet that same loathing and hate... he could feel. Eventually, stumbling a bit trying to shake the feeling.

She looked over her thumb "...Dude... Vic... at least somethin' is left..."
Eventually her golden eyes were upon him again, but something seemed off and unresponsive about her teammate. "Vic...?"
There was still a lack of a response. Cooly, she closed her eyes and turned away again. In a nearly sneering manner, she snidely commented "Sh*t 'son! Yer first time and yer already rememberin' stuff better than most'a us..."
Perhaps too well.
".... I was.... a girl?"
Iris let out one word.
"Sh**************t...." Part of her wanted to be here for this, but a part of her really didn't want to be the one to deal with it either.
"...so... so what if ya were a chick..."

"Right?" He answered almost distantly to Iris, like he wasn't even on the same plane as her anymore. Just one of those answers to make someone think you were listening to them.
Victoria shook his head and looked away. "Ahah..." There was a nervous laughter. "That's.... impossible right?" He tried to brush off the thought, it was weird and... well uncomfortable thought.
He might've been remembering things but he was trying so hard to avoid it. The whole feeling just made him nauseous. Maybe... that's why he was remembering this now.... but. The long drawn out s**t, brought him back to looking at her, almost like he'd seen a ghost. "Nothing wrong with it... I uh... guesss, I mean you make a bad a** chick.... it just seems... rather Fantastical... I've just never thought about even wanting to be a woman.... it'd be kind of awkward...."
He turned his head and looked around. The words the woman was speaking to the other senshi echoed in his mind. You have to be a man.... He shifted a bit. "I don't know it just... was a weird deja vu moment. I'm sure it's nothing. This sort of stuff happens all the time."
Victoria was shoving it off as he spoke walking around towards the stands and away from the pedestal that was giving off such negative emotions to him. "I'm sure it's just all the residual negative energy here from those wars. I've heard of it happening all the time when something bad happened like murders or what ever. It left a negative cloud around the area it happened in."
Logic, it could be explained away. Something bad happened here, he was just being super sensitive to it. "I bet there's tons of EMF around here. Maybe some of this stone has like quartz in it or something that holds energy ages after life is gone. It's probably just eating at me and making me feel weird." Denial, he hoped he hadn't just irritated or pissed off Iris more than she already seemed to be...
"You're probably too tough to be affected by it."

Before they got too much further, Iris firmly grabbed onto Victoria's shoulder. Her feet had stopped and there were no signs of budging on her part.
He was getting worked up. All the excuses he was offering to try to explain things was easily getting on her nerves. However, it was understandable, given his situation.
In a firm voice, she said one thing before telling him her demands. "I ain't affected by it because it ain't my home..."
Her hand's grip got tighter upon his shoulder before she then told him what was happening next. "We're goin' back... I got sh*t t'do back on Earth y'know." It was true she had things to do, but everyone did. However, it was somewhat her responsibility to make sure her teammate wasn't overwhelmed beyond this point.
"It works th'same as gettin' 'ere... senshi phone, concentrate on Earth, push a button... and boom, we're back." Her eyes were expectantly upon him, making certain he was going to follow her instructions.

He was trying to keep from thinking about who's home it was. It was more comforting for him to think she was tougher so she couldn't be affected by it. There was a small twitch as she spoke.
Magenta eyes turned on her, "Right... sorry. I guess I forgot what time it was." What time was it? He didn't even know. His eyes flickered past her, towards the pedestal.
Shaking his head he then nodded, pulling out his phone. Right Earth, he looked at the phone and the button, before eventually pressing it. Hoping he could actually concentrate enough on getting back. He was getting a bit of a stress headache.
When they were back, he sort of slumped like he was tried. Rubbing his head, "There's got to be some logical explanation for that...." He murmured more to himself than her at this point. Having forgotten she was there for a few moments.
It was when he closed his eyes and tried to think, did he realize she was still there, that was the funny thing though closing ones eyes trying to concentrate it brought a strange sense of awareness and the energy signature. "Oh... right. Sorry you have things to do. I'll uh.... see you later?" He sounded unsure, troubled and tired. "My sisters are probably looking for me to be home soon." He didn't care what time it was really.

The tomboy didn't close her eyes for the trip, watching as the world gradually shifted from ruins to the familiar streets of Destiny City. Once they had returned, the eternal senshi whipped her hand away from his shoulder.
She eyeballed her teammate rather hard as he seemed to return back to reality, then suddenly said goodbye for the night.
"...yeah... don't worry 'bout it... Later..."
She turned away, ready to sprint off, but before she did, she said one more thing.
"Don't stress yerself out..."
With that, she was gone.

Feliks nodded a little over enthusiastically at Iris, "Okay."
He paused when she stopped to say something else, don't stress yourself out? There was a nervous chuckle from Victoria. "O-okay if you say so~! There's nothing to stress about right?"
He nodded and seemed to keep telling himself that as he headed home.
