"I don't think so. I'd rather not go changing it that way." She did hope it might darken as she gained in rank, the offer he made wasn't one she was about to take. "Even if it would darken my uniform, I'll do it the hard way." By not joining his side and hoping it darkened as she gained in rank, or at least that it got to looking better over all.
"I wouldn't let you mess with my starseed - or anyone else." And somehow, she wondered if it was just her, but it sounded a bit dirty saying that.
"True." Turning back to look at her fellow senshi. "But what...I mean do we just attack him?" He wasn't doing anything, aside from flirting a bit and talking. Was she supposed to do that? Just attack someone doing nothing just based on what side they were on?

"Some people would say that was the hard way. It definitely doesn't tickle... At the very least I recall it being excruciating." He pulled one of his cards, vanishing the rest for the moment as he turned the metal over between his fingers, letting the embellishment on the back catch in the light.
"Lucky for the two of you I'm not interested in starseeds this evening. I wasn't even interested in fighting, but it seems like your friend over there is going to insist one way or another..." He tsked softly, shaking his head before springing back away from them, taking a defensive pose. "Shall we, ladies?"
"... Being polite about it isn't going to make me want to kick your a** any less." Her eyes narrowed, fingers balling into fists. It was probably a good thing that her sphere didn't involve glaring at someone or he'd already be dead. "How many others have you tried to lure into being comfortable enough for you to attack them?"
"There are other hard ways..." Winking once she turned toward her fellow senshi, indeed the Captain was right. She did seem intent upon a fight and he was teasing about starseeds, talking so lightly about them! "So what were you out for tonight? Just energy?" She asked, turning dark blue eyes onto the Captain once more.
"He's likely tried with every female, he is charming - I will give him that." She called over her shoulder. "Shall I go first...and show him just how much I can bite?" She quested gently, lowering her voice as she questioned the senshi of Woe. She might be a low level senshi but her attack was a rather good one, or so she was starting to think.
"Actually..." She would start things off. As she brought both hands up like someone about to splash water at another person. The whispered words of her spell were too low to hear but what came from her hands was not hard to miss at all - impossible really.

Sailor Scout Attack: Sailor Nephthys raises both her arms in front of her, as if splashing someone with something, as she calls her attack. This attack summons three bats, playing on the lore that vampires could turn into bats, and not only do they serve as a distraction but if they bite a person they drain that person(s) of energy. The bats actually do drain a victims energy, equivalent to pulling an all nighter. For those people it will be noticeable if they are using a lot of their own attacks or are very active in a battle. This attack can be aimed at more than one person, as there are three bats. They can be attacked and destroyed or avoided of course. This attack is an instant cast and the bats will last for fifteen seconds before vanishing of their own accord. The spell can be cast three times in battle.

"See what I get for trying to talk?" He snorted, throwing one of his cards to clip one bat out of his way, swatting at a second with his hand while losing track of the third. "Why do you senshi always have such annoying atta-- ow!"
One of the little critters had gotten close enough to bite him. It didn't stay attached for long, however, as the moment he felt it sink its fangs in he snagged it to pry it off and throw it away from him. "That wasn't very nice."
She hadn't actually expected Nephthys to really attack the Captain, but now that she had there was no way getting out of it. He didn't seem like he was going to run away from the bats and the tone of his voice had gone from friendly to annoyed rather quickly.
"s**t..." She muttered to herself, thinking as quickly as she could before glancing over at the other senshi. "Can you do that again? I didn't ask how many times you could use your attack..."
"No...but than again I am the senshi of vampires...biting is sort of my thing." She said with a smile. The little bats she had seen get taken care of by the captain but she was happy to see one get him. She had wanted to cheer for her little bat, knowing what would happen from seeing it attack another senshi. She had only used her attack a few times but that had been the best demonstration of what her attack did.
They had told her plus it hadn't been during a fight so she'd been able to focus on it all. Turning her attention to her fellow senshi she shrugged. "I don't know, but I know I can use it another time.. I hope you can do something also though." She really hoped this wouldn't all fall onto her shoulders.
Turning her attention back onto the Captain. "You should know that vampires should never be trusted...lovely and seductive but dangerous." She said before her hands came up into position again and than made that same motion as if splashing water. The whispered words too soft to hear but the bats came again and headed right for the captain.

"I can do something. It just helps to have a little distraction." She snorted as she tugged off her gloves, casting them to the ground. An entire flock of bats would have been more useful for a distraction, but beggars couldn't be choosers.
In the end it only took one bat, seemingly flying straight for the Captain's face. It couldn't latch on to bite him, but it did seem to be flapping with great determination, making enough of a scene for her to yank her hood down as she took hold of the young man's bare hand. "Veil of Woe."
Attack #1 - Veil of Woe! - Woe lands a successful touch attack after removing one of her gloves, lowering her hood to gaze at her opponent.
Effects: For a brief moment Woe's opponent (singular) views her as someone close to them in grievous distress, be it a situation from one of their memories or the situation they are currently in (about to be attacked). This is meant to be a disorienting attack. It can also work without her hood, but the effect always seems more powerful when they don't see her face first. Duration: Instantaneous; wearing off after one post. Avoidable: If her touch is avoided, yes. If her touch lands, no. Downside: Woe must get close to her enemy to use this attack, leaving herself wide open to being hurt if she can't move quickly enough to daze them.
He had just managed to smack the bat away from his face when the other senshi snatched his wrist. He tried to turn his swing on her but it wasn't her that he saw. That brief pause; that flash of a different person threw him off. He staggered back, rocking on his heels, eyes wide.
"I didn't... I'm sorry." He had been so arrogant seconds ago and, somehow, he had almost hit her. There had been one or two times where he'd thought about it when they were children, but he never would have actually left a mark on Cordelia. Did she know? Could she tell this was him? How... ?
She watched with fascination as the other senshi used her own attack, the mechanics were interesting and also a risk, but the reaction of the Captain was certainly unexpected. What did the senshi's attack do to garner that reaction? Watching from where she stood the senshi of vampires took a step closer, being sure not to make a sound with her heels, as she approached in order to observe better and perhaps see something she might otherwise miss.
She seemed...upset perhaps? She wasn't sure but it wasn't something expected at all. This other senshi had a very interesting magic and different from hers. She saw nothing but the Captain either saw something or thought he did, and his mind was just playing tricks on him. Either way this was very interesting to her.
Looking to her fellow senshi she waited to see what the other would do next and what would happen next. She was very curious about this.

That pause was all she needed from him. It was enough time for her to release his wrist and sweep a kick at his feet; satisfied only when she knocked them out from under him, sending him tumbling to the ground. It would take him a moment to get back up and that was all the time she needed to get away.
"Run!" Thisbe called out to Nephthys before turning on heel, making a break for the edge of the building in order to leap to the next roof top. If her attack was offensive the two of them might have been able to take a Captain, but she didn't want to take any chances on failure.
Richterite groaned as his back hit the roof; dazed from the bat that had managed to latch on and confused from the second senshi's attack. His mind would have cleared faster, he was certain, if he wasn't feeling so drained. Maybe he would just sleep here...
No. That was a terrible idea. He shook it off with a groan, trying to push himself back up. It was too much of a risk to just collapse here. The weary Captain vanished his cards before using teleport; glad that home wasn't too far away.
Turning and running also she followed after the other. While it seemed neither of them had an offensive attack, she was sure they could have handled him in a fight. They were, at least she hoped, both capable of fighting or putting up some sort of a fight.
"Why are we running?" She called out while following the other. A moment later though she paused as she felt the captain was gone. "He left.." They were safe, as far as she could tell. She had been ready for a fight, even if she really wasn't sure it couldn't be that hard to kick or punch someone - right?

"... Because I didn't think he was going to just teleport away like that." She skidded to a halt, pausing to glance back over her shoulder to the rooftop where they'd left the Captain. "Generally they don't and it's usually harder for me to get in a second attack once they've figured out what the first does." It was always harder making sure that she could actually touch her opponent.

Were we finished with this one, Sleet? Just lemme know so I can log it, if so!
I think we can call it done with my post here. ^__^
Nodding her head she smiled, "We should get going, it's getting late." And head their separate ways. "But I hope to see you again." She didn't, at the moment, remember her senshi phone and the ability to exchange numbers. Having a phone that could suddenly appear in your hand was a new, and odd, thing to get used to.
Flashing one more bright smile the senshi of vampires took off, intent on headed for home. She'd put some distance down before finding a place to power down and heading all the way home then.
