"If you send me the coordinates ahead of time I can check it out and let you know whether or not it's somewhere I can be easily... But what time?" He was certain enough that he could make any time work with enough notice, but knowing precisely when would mean he could plan out the rest of his day. He could also let Luc know so he wouldn't worry if he was out late.

"Right, time. Sorry." He shook his head, laughing slightly. "Ten. Early enough to not be out all night but late enough it's usually pretty dark." And late enough that the streets were at least mostly clear thanks to shops and restaurants closing. "Got a busy life now that you're on the side of the good guys?"

"I've been doing what I can to get my life back in order, which does mean having a bit of a social life on the weekends." He flashed the other man a soft smirk. The expression took on an almost sheepish look as he brushed his fingers through his hair again. "I generally try to balance things out as best I can. If you say ten it means I know not to get into any trouble after dinner."

"You? Getting in trouble?" Arachne set a hand over his heart, a rather fake expression of shock on his face. "Well I never would have guessed. Find upstanding gentleman like yourself." Teasing Mag Mell felt more normal, they were supposed to be trying to be friends. He teased everyone else so why not the knight?

"Every now and then." The grin returned, seeming all too natural on the Cosmos knight's face. "Sometimes it's less actual trouble and more just... Things that are unavoidable that just happen and then no one is getting anywhere on time." He shook his head slowly, rocking slightly on his feet as his grin shifted into a teasing smirk. "I'm not sneaking off to meet anyone in alleyways, though."

"Where's the fun in that? You meet all sorts of interesting people that way." Arachne was mostly teasing, mostly. He still did a bit of that but there had been less since he'd come back to Destiny City. At least less of it while he was Arachne. Not quite the same as Lysander.

"Is that how you met this senshi of yours?" His brow lofted as he looked to the other man before taking a step away from the playground, feeling that anxious need to keep moving around as opposed to staying in one place. "C'mon, you can tell me about him while we walk."

"No, for once." Arachne shook his head as he got up, stretching sightly, before following after the knight. "I just ran into him on accident and couldn't help myself. He's ******** adorable." Now that he knew Almandine he knew the other senshi was a lot more than that but sometimes those snap decisions were worth it.

"Hopefully, for your sake, he's something more than the kind of lost causes you used fall for." It was his turn to tease now, hoping that Arachne would be able to pick that up in his voice. He wanted good things for the other man; wanted Arachne to find someone who made him as happy as he was. "You really think he wants to leave the Negaverse behind? And isn't just looking to gather information?"

Arachne scoffed slightly. "I have a feeling he's still the same lost cause I fall for. You turned out alright didn't you? My taste can't be that bad." He grinned, stretching again as they walked. It was still strange having the extra weight on his back and he wasn't used to it yet. "I don't think he's fishing for information, honesty I don't think he'd be able to be that sneaky. He's just ... it wouldn't occur to him." After their conversations Arachne figured Almandine wouldn't be cut out for that. It wouldn't make sense to be that sneaky.

"Honestly, having just the thought of you was enough to push me forward sometimes. When I sank to my darkest point having that knowledge that you would've given me so much s**t for just sitting around and letting everything get to me? It gave me the motivation to get up and get out and try." He glanced over to the other man as he drew one of his cards out to idly turn it in his hands for lack of anything better to do with them. If he ever got to meet the cosmic tailor he'd have a thing or two to say about the usefulness of pockets. "Doesn't change that your taste was pretty awful." He smirked softly. "But maybe it's getting better with this one. It's hard, though, when it's too dangerous to let him know who you are on the other side of Sailor Arachne-- assuming the two of you have something going on. Ignore that if you don't."

"It would be a bit easier if I could tell him who I was, and before I might haven't been as worried about it but I've got other people to think about now. I can't risk something happen to them because I make a stupid decision." When he was younger he wouldn't have really thught about it, he'd have just done whatever he wanted. Now though? Now he had to think about Abby and Cordy. He couldn't risk them because he was being dumb. "There's ... something going on. It's new though so I can't really say exactly what it is but it's something."

"I know that feeling," he laughed softly, shaking his head while trying to keep the worst of a stupid smile off of his lips. "You don't want to push it too far too fast, but you want to see where it goes because it seems like it'll turn into something good if you've got a chance to let it." It was a different feeling; one he hadn't ever actually thought he'd experience... And now that he had? That he'd gotten to see where it went? He never wanted to let it go. "Sometimes I wonder how much easier a lot of this would be if we could all see that we're just people beyond the disguises... But there are so many ways it could be so much worse doing that too."

"You sound like you know about that from experience." He laughed softly, looking over at the Knight. That was something he wouldn't expected but it would explain how happy Mag Mell seemed. Knowing who everyone was could make things easier but could also ruin lives. "Highschool drama and hormonal teenagers knowing that their worst enemy at school was on the other side so there was a good excuse to get rid of them? Not such a good idea."

"I might know a thing or two about it. From experience? It's worth seeing where things will go, even if you take it slow and you decide it's for the best to not let everyone else in on it first." Sure, it might make mutual friends comment on how they'd already known, or how it was 'about damn time', but... "Seems to be what happens to those of us who wind up forming a different kind of connection with some of our allies. You know Corvus has been keeping something to herself too, right?" He'd take the opportunity to get a little bit of information off of someone else if there was a chance that Arachne knew more about what was going on with the Senshi of Vengeance and the Chronos knight than he did.
