Theodore didn't care for the way that the horrible woman was talking about his faction. Sure, awakening or promoting hurt, but a lot of good things hurt. People got tattoos and loved them but that was voluntary pain. And there were so many things like that.
"She's exaggerating. She wants you to like her kind more," he huffed, swatting at the hand that tried to pet him.
He wanted no pity pats.
Astrid-- or whomever she was like this -- on the other hand was starting to feel like her customer service facade,that she always tried to uphold in situations that made her uncomfortable started, to crack.
"Why would I want your help? You forced me into this! Might as well feed me to the sharks!" The outburst surprised her and so did the way she felt her chest constrict like her entire life had been uprooted and she was about to fall apart.
"You say you don't dictate my 'path' but you already forced my hand once." What would stop her -- or whomever was on 'this side' of the war she'd been forced into from doing it again?

"I'm married to a general, cute little Theodore. I've seen what both sides can do, in the name of good. And what my own side can do...in the name of good." Astrid...no Sabrina, she knew her as Sabrina, snapped and it made her face shift for just a brief moment.
It wasn't anger, but more annoyance. She was young, and she had been in unfavorable position. The accusations were hard to combat, because she had forced her hand. "Have you thought about what you actually said? As a contridiction? I am helping you because I don't want to throw you to the sharks. The wolves, the carnivores...Whatever. You don't have to fight, if you don't want too. Don't you think though, it would be better if you knew what you were..." Mintaka's lips drew tight, "forced into?" She didn't know how Sabrina felt about close contact, so she came close and reached for a hand.
"I'm not trying to hurt you. I will never force you into anything you don't want again Sabrina. If you don't want to ever power up again, it's okay. You won't ever have too, but if you do....if you get curious and you want to know this new part of you. This new power....I will tell you everything."
Mintaka let her hand fall, "I can take you home, or you can as well. If you just go to any of the mirrors here and imagine your home, it'll pop up a mirror big enough for you to go through." Mintaka hesitated, "My home is also a place of sanctuary. My brother was also turned to a Dark mirror not too long ago, we are working together to find a balance between these different lives."
To Theodore, she sighed and pet him again. "We should return you too, to your senshi. I would hate for them to worry too much while you are gone."

Sabrina looked at Mintaka's hand and shied away.
It didn't matter what she was saying, she felt like she had been robbed of something. Her agency, her say, and her jobs already did enough of that. Now, she had something else to contend with too?
Her lips pursed and she swallowed down everything that she wanted to say and said this instead. "Take me back to wherever we were before." It was easiest.
And this way she could pretend like she didn't have to give away all of herself to this stranger, well intentioned or not.
Theodore on the other hand rolled his eyes at the origami senshi. Clearly her husband didn't celebrate the negaverse as he should.
It was no skin off his back. He knew better. His knew better and that was what was important.
"That's fine to drop me off there too, I can get back on my own."
pixie nyxie wrap us up pls and thank you <3

Rejection hurt, but she assumed that it was because Sabrina needed time. After all, she could find her, whenever she needed.
She nodded, not pressing either of them and summoned the mirrors back to where they were, gently walking them through. "Here we are." She held out her compact for Sabrina to see, "If you ever need me, you can just call me on your mirror compact. My name is Mintaka."
To Theodore she nodded, "And to you, Sorry to steal one away. Thank you for helping her though." She didn't leave first, waiting for the other two to disappear from sight before she did anything else.
She would probably need a small sit alone and a cup of tea to better look over how she could've done that better. Once they disappeared from her sight, she moved back into the mirror and returned to Ares throne, just sitting and staring at the giant mirror.
She wished she didn't have to come this way to awaken them. Maybe someday, she wouldn't have too.
