Victoria nodded when Dia said the best bet would be to do it on the sly. He followed her as she lead him into the alleyway. He was watching as she spoke and looked out towards the street. The words she said about picking out the sickly caught his attention.
"Have we actually tried getting from those chronically sick?" He posed, "I mean, wouldn't it be sort of a favor?"
He paused though as she was talking about wallets, energy and starseeds. "Oh, uh no, no preference really." Granted he wasn't sure about the whole wallet.
"So how do you get them to come over? Pretend someone's hurt? Or does that work?" Obviously he was curious if a good Samaritan would actually fall for that.

Shrugging her shoulders, she compromised with the corrupted. "I mean, if you want, you can pick off the sickly. Nursing homes probably wouldn't care if you paid them a visit either." The thought was something she'd tuck in the back of her mind for later use, if push came to shove and she became behind on her quota. Most of the time, she enjoyed the thrill of the hunt, but now and again it was nice just to be able to pluck a seed without causing too much excitement. One hand motioned out towards the alleyway's entrance, where shoppers kept passing by in waves, probably according to the pedestrian cross walk only a block over. "Why don't you try and see what happens?"

"I see." He replied thoughtfully when she said she doubt the nursing homes would care. It'd be one less they'd have to deal with.
He paused when she held her hand out and told him to try and see, he looked at her and paused, thinking of how to work this, he tussled his hair a little and adjusted his fuku so it looked like he'd been in a bit of a fight, "Feel like playing?" He asked her before giving a wink, "Wish me luck,"
"Help~" He rushed out at the edge of the alleyway, surely any of the onlookers from earlier had gone by now. "Help~ my, m-my friend and I were, j-jumped! She's hurt, oh please help~!" He was doing his best to look distressed and pay attention to how many actually reacted.
At the very least he knew he got a couple of glances. He waited for the fish to bite as he tried to pretend to frantically ask for help.Ghouliboo I gotta sleep but will tag back asap

As she heard him calling out to the crowd, his words registered in her mind and she decided to cooperate with his little scheme and accepted her role as damsel in distress. Collapsing to her knees (while at the same time making sure she wasn't about to fall into anything nasty or dirty looking in their alleyway), her hands helped cushion her fall as she bent down and rested on her side, one arm clutching on to the other in feign distress. Sure enough, despite their strange attire, there was a single soul that showed a willingness to help a stranger in need. "I know CPR - is she okay? Do I need to call the police?" The woman appeared to be in her early fifties, one hand clutching to the purse at her side as she made her way into the alleyway to investigate the panic. Her other hand was digging into her purse, probably for the phone. "I...I think it's just a sprain," Dia said quietly, her eyes darting from the woman to the other sailor senshi. "I'm not sure, though, it hurts."

Victoria gave a relieved smile as someone came to help him, "Oh thank you, kind ma'am."
He had followed just behind her as the lady came to investigate, "Oh is she okay?" He asked trying his best not to sparkle too much someone had fallen for it. Though, when it came time to actually pull the starseed as the woman had knelt down to check on his friend. . .
He bit his lip and paused for a second, this wasn't going to be easy was it? He knew Dia was watching him. After a second a deep breath he leaned over trying to continue the act, so she wouldn't know what he was about to do "We really appreciate your help."
He plunged his hand into her back, the feeling awkward, weird as he hoped he could find the starseed without causing the woman too much pain. After what felt like an eternity to him, he plucked the seed out of the woman. Looking a little horrified and helping her to the ground. "O-okay . . . that's, that was right? . . . Right?"
His eyes moved to the entrance of the alleyway to make sure no one else was coming or had seen. He'd managed to get the starseed before the woman had pressed call on her phone.

"Aside from the bit of sympathy you're showing to the lady you've just killed, I'd say that was an outstanding performance, Vic." The arm that had been formerly hugging on to her other elbow relaxed, fingers gently strumming against the asphalt as she watched the victim's face grow ashy as her life force quickly began to leave her body. "But we can work on that. You'll get the hang of it, with time." Heck, Dia still despised reaching into chest cavities for the sparkly little seeds. Something about chest searching just wigged her out in general. But hey, everyone had their quirks. Rising from the ground, she dusted off the specks of dirt from her skirt and hair as she glanced up at the panicked looking corrupted senshi. "I think we're in the clear...but we may want to vamp for a little bit. You can teleport, right?" Glancing up, she debated hopping atop the closest roof and making her own exit, but teleporting would probably be the easiest route at that point. "We can meet up again later - you've got your communication device, right? The crystal?" With a wave of her hand, she summoned hers and held it out to show the other sailor scout.

He winced a little, "Yeah . . . Does that get easier with time?" He asked trying not to look at the poor woman. Okay he had some guilt, maybe the terminally ill would be easier. He'd def be doing a service right?
"The whole being able to do that though is so weird. I'm not sure reaching into something you know logically shouldn't be able to happen, is . . . going to be easier?"
He nodded when she said they might want to vamp for a bit. "Yeah I can teleport, do you want a ride? I can get us out of the area faster, a few streets over? Easier to scurry away?"
He pulled out the crystal the same way she had, "Yup! I do, still figuring it out, it's uh . . . almost too simple." He chuckled. How odd was it to say that.

"Nah, I'm good. Thank you for the offer though, sweetie." Tucking the communicator crystal away, she presented him with a smile before giving a curt, polite nod in his direction. "I should probably start collecting my own quota, if I want to have the rest of the night off to do my own errands." Spinning around, she closed her eyes and was nearly about to evaporate when she paused, forgetting another crucial tip. Turning her head, pink curls bounced as she grinned. "Don't forget to turn that seed in to get your own credit with the big wigs." With that, she was gone - off to do her own quick hunting before the sun had time to fall across the sky. LP fin from my end! Thank you for the RP heart

Victoria nodded and smiled, "You're welcome."
"See you soon, Good luck." He watched as she was about to evaporate before she had said he should turn it in. Oh, right. "Thank you! I'll do that."
He watched as she disappeared, and he did the same heading off to another beat. Hopefully, they could get together again soon.
