As she listened, Aquarius started to smile. Maybe this impromptu meeting was worthwhile after all. All of those suggestions were very good, even though she had thought of some of them already. "Yes, there are lots of books with pictures, and I've been able to infer the contents of some of them. Cookbooks, art books, some on botany or geology. And yes, I have started to look for patterns, but there's just so much to look through that it's tough." She also just couldn't focus on anything for too long without needing to hit something.
"I don't know how people teach themselves new languages, really. I was never very good in Spanish." Aquarius leaned over and poked Pharos on the nose gently. "I like your ideas, though. Anytime you want to come and give me a hand with this stuff, you're welcome. I could really use the help." Maybe her best bet was to gather a crew of trusted translators, people willing to put in a few hours at a time. A group would be able to accomplish far more than she could on her own.
At the mention of phones and rings, she pulled out her own senshiphone and fiddled with it. "Honestly, that whole letter thing sounds way more useful than the phone. Don't get me wrong, I love technology and all, but these things don't do much that normal phones can't, and since everyone has a phone these days, they're kind of redundant. At least, they are right now." They had all this technology, but it wasn't being utilized in a very effective or original way.
The explanation about knights wasn't the most detailed ever, but it helped to fill in some gaps in her knowledge. "I've never seen a lighthouse up there, but I also haven't gone looking for one. I kinda stuck close to the Outpost so I could work on finding information. And hey, it's not like we get weapons either." Which was odd, considering the training hall in her Outpost, but she wasn't going to question it too much right then.
"Celsus, huh?" Suddenly Aquarius started fidgeting again. "I don't really talk to other Zodiac people much. I don't want them to start telling me what to do or anything. Or yell at me about what I'm not doing. But if you think it's important, I'll consider it." Maybe. If she happened to bump into him.

Pharos was fascinated by the whole of Aquarius project and was rather sad she hadn't spent an good amount of time there when she had been trapped up on the surrounding, but she spent most of her time of Virgo or Leo. She nodded listening to Aquarius speak, hearing that she had done all the things Pharos suggested. “Well maybe you should try checking out the wonders and other outpost to see if you find anything to help.”
Pharos blinked going slightly crossed eyes at having her nose poked, but grinned and nodded at the aspect of being able to help with the research. She decided that she really like Aquarius even when at first she thought she didn't and she hoped they could be friends. “I would love to help. It will be a lot of fun and who knows maybe I will find something that I recognized.”
Pharos didn't know it yet, but her the knights had ancestors that resided at there wonders and when she met him she would be wondering if he or the other ancestors could help. They'd been alive when the surrounding was still kicking so it was possible anyone of them might know something. She probably bombard Aquarius with the information at some point.
Pharos gave a small laugh, “You probably shouldn't spend to much time hauled up in your outpost. If you would like I can take you to visit Pharos someday. Who knows it might help, at the very least it would be a nice break.”
Pharos shook her head when the conversation turned to Celsus and the other zodicas somewhat. “Don't worry Celsus isn't like that. He is very friendly and he won't yell at you for not doing stuff. Trust me, you should talk to him.”

Aquarius sighed. "It's a good idea, don't get me wrong. But the problem with checking out other Outposts, or these Wonder places, is that I'd have to ask other people for help, at least to let me in. And that goes back to the whole I-don't-really-talk-to-them. Much." She wasn't anti-social or anything, she just didn't want people to start with accusations or making her business their business. "I wouldn't mind checking your place out, though. Lighthouses are pretty cool." Though she still wasn't sure what one was doing in the middle of space.
"I don't spend that much time there," she said with a laugh and a casual wave of the hand. "A day here, a few hours there. It's really only interesting in short busts. Then the whole place just gets really annoying, really fast." Like most of the Zodiacs did, but she wasn't about to say that. "If you think this Celsus guy is that cool, I'll try to talk to him sometime. Promise."
She just wouldn't make it a priority. There were other things to spend her time on. Like resisting the urge to put her entire Outpost to the torch.
Her legs were starting to fall asleep, so she kicked them out in front of her and wiggled them, not caring if she got weird looks. "We probably shouldn't stay here much longer. Two energy signals in one place act like a beacon for bad guys." Aquarius stood up, a bit shakily at first, and offered her hand. "It might be better if we split up now. But hey, next time let's go up there and do some digging, whaddya say?" She pointed at the sky and grinned, almost looking forward to the next research trip.

Pharos nodded, “that makes sense, but It won't really be a big a problem as you seem to think. I bet they'd be happy to let you explore or even maybe I could do it for you. I don't mind going to bug people, especially Leo. I adore his outpost.” Leo's outpost was the one she recalled most vividly from her time on the surrounding. “I glad you'd like to see the lighthouse … I promise to take you there when next I can.”
Pharos gave a grin, “okay, I still think it will be the most interesting place to just stay for days and days. I don't know I still feel like I'd want to try to read everything. And trust me, Celsus is great. He's around at night. I'm not really sure where, but I'm sure you'll run into him at some point I guess. You ran into me.”
Pharos nodded at the suggestion to get out of there, they had been there for a time and Aquarius didn't seem to want to draw anymore attention, not that she did either. Something bad after a nice little chat was no way to end the night. She nodded enthusiastically. “Yes, next time we can head up and do some digging. It was nice meeting you Aquarius. Thanks for chatting with me. See you around,” she said as she walked to the other edge of the roof and jumped to the next. She waved briefly and continued on.
