Welcome to Gaia! ::

It was true that Nix hadn't directly seen the energy stealing...but it was a reasonable guess. Still. It wasn’t guaranteed… and this other senshi seemed earnest enough about it. That look, though.

Nix was a bit confused by it, honestly. It wasn’t the sort of expression he’d expect on someone so much taller than him. All the same, he shrugged and hedged, “Well…I guess that’s true,” he said. “But, you know, you don’t, uh, have to work for the Negaverse. You could always er, not help them? ‘Do this or we hurt you’ is kinda an awful thing, isn’t it?”

Nix nodded thoughtfully. “Well, uh, you could always join us, you’d get a new identity and they’d never be able to find you,” he suggested earnestly. “But, uh, I think hiding families is harder...might still be able to. I could ask around.”

Honestly, if he really thought about it, Nix would admit that he did not expect this suggestion to actually work on getting the corrupt senshi to go along with it, but in the moment he meant absolutely everything he said. He’d ask around about that regardless, because it seemed like important information.

“And no Senshi is gonna threaten you for not participating.” That was harder to guarantee, but he certainly thought it should be the case, so no reason to assume it wasn’t. “Which is much better.”

Nix smiled and nodded. “I’ll definitely find an answer,” he said, “And I hope I can get a good answer to you.” He wasn’t quite sure where he’d get the answer, but given time he’d definitely figure it out.

“I’ll keep an eye out for you,” Nix promised, only unintentionally being a bit threatening. “Stay safe, and don’t be evil, yeah?” He suggested, as a parting thought, but backed up to let the other senshi go. In fact, he decided to not stick around, and hopped up the building and away.

He wasn’t sure he could call this a victory of any sort, but...it was certainly something to think about.
