Welcome to Gaia! ::

DM Eternal Mithra

Tom had told her that he was going to be out. Some mission for the Negaverse or some such. She had waved him off saying that she would see him later. As soon as he was out the door she let out a sigh. It had been harder the past couple of months. He had switched up how he was studying and she was helping him in doing so and not taking on any new clients for her job.

At least his parents were bankrolling the two of them.

But she had planned to nap and just relax for most of the day while she waited for him to come back. She felt like doing nothing for the time being.

Unfortunately Destiny City didn't work that way and as soon as she had passed a mirror she had felt herself being pulled into it and thrown into a room which quite a few other Dark Mirror, all looking equally as confused. She grumbled. "Looks like this wasn't planned then." And there was no way to escape for now.

For once Mirrorspace appeared to be intent on keeping them trapped, rather than wanting to spit them out.

DM Basic Bellerophon

Ever since the park incident, Clue had been much more wary of well... traveling anywhere without a buddy. He knew that he probably wouldn't be attacked, but considering what had happened and his interactions afterwards, he wouldn't be surprised if both Order and the Negaverse decided that the Dark Mirror were meant to be attacked.

Which is why he had mostly been keeping to the apartment. Mostly working on his cooking skills and thinking of spray painting designs. He had thought he had felt something outside sometimes but it didn't feel much different and had shrugged it off.

It wasn't until he had been looking at a mirror and attempting to style his hair that he knew something was wrong when he was suddenly pulled in and landed unceremoniously on the floor. It took a moment for him to realize what had happened and he got up, wondering where they all where. When he realized it was Mirrorspace and somehow he had been pulled in he sighed and moved over to the walls of mirrors. They weren't even large enough for his foot. He took a moment to study them, thinking he might have seen something within them, but was unsure.

Super Itokawa.

Boon-nam was still not the most active of dark mirror senshi but he wanted to work on it, had been working on it slowly. He also wanted to balance his home life and school, as he wanted to keep his grades up so he could earn a good job. He and Clue lived on their own and so good jobs were needed so they could do well for themselves, and make a comfortabel home for themselves. He wanted it so badly. Something that was theirs and that they'd worked for and earned.

When he heard Clue in the bathroom one moment and didn't the next he went to investigate only to find himself being pulled into the mirror. Landi ng on the ground, and powered up, the dark haired male took a moment to look around. Ok, so mirror space had pulled them in. This was new for him but he wasn't too worried, not with so many people around.

What was unexpected, though perhaps it shouldn't have been, was seeing Clue also here and powered up. "Clue." He didn't worry here, around the others, about using the others name. "I at least managed to turn the sink water off before I got pulled in." Which was good...for both their sinka nd floor as well as their water bill.

Eternal Sailor Damocles

To say, it had been a while... would be an understatement. Damocles had never meant to show any less devotion to his family... It was just... one took control over the other.

He'd found himself a bit surprised, when the pull of mirrorspace called, and he went with little argument. The Eternal side to himself, casting a quick glance around before spotting an all to familiar fuku.

Damocles gently dropped his chin on the top of Tantalus' head. "I believe Ava and Nami are both at the house." He said, almost as if reading the others mind. He had vaguely recalled Nami chattering about something she'd bought for the kids earlier in the day. The blonde rubbed at Tantalus' arms, trying to offer support and ease any stress.

"...It's been a while, hasn't it."

Dark Mirror Eternal Sailor Acubens

Acubens accepted the plushie from Kiuchi with a small smile, and stroked it’s head to soothe herself. In moments like these, she truly understood why he carried these around. Maybe she should start doing the same… she had the strangest feeling that her brother did the same thing, even if he was never brave enough to take it out in front of others like Kiuchi was. Maybe some kind of fidget toy or squishy thing. Something to occupy her hands while her mind raced a mile a minute.

Someone calling for help -- trapped in a mirror

She’d nearly forgotten. As Avignon approached her, she reached out to squeeze his shoulder soothingly while considering Kiuchi and his theory. She knew better than to discount anything Mirrorspace could throw at them, and so the idea that someone could be stuck in here asking for help returned old anxiety to Acubens nerves. Altea had called for help, hadn’t she? And look where that had landed them.

"Safety is always first priority," she finally agreed quietly with Avignon as Lacerta arrived. The newest among them didn’t approach her, and while Acubens was nervous watching her roam around on her own, investigating for herself, she couldn’t stop the rush of pride at her independence.

"Acubens," she finally introduced herself distractedly. After a moment, however, she recovered and thrust her hand out for Machholz. "Sorry, I’m Acubens." She even forced a grin as best she could. "I hope it’s just a wraith too. But, you’re right, if people are getting pulled in when they aren’t powered up… well that’s not exactly good news."

Elsa calling her name caught her attention next.

"Hey, Elsa," she sang back. "If I knew what was going on, don’t you think I’d get us out of here? I’ve got your sister to get home and mack on, after all." She tossed him a wink and a wide smile.





Dark Mirror Super Sailor Logos

Logos had also not been powered up when she was sucked through her own mirror as she readied herself for bed. One moment she was in an oversized tee shirt, passing in front of the mirror to get into bed, and the next she was here, powered up and ready to go for… something.

Around her activity buzzed and people spoke, but she gravitated towards the woman that she defaulted to when Miss Lesath was not around. Standing at attention next to Acubens, she waited and listened. Everyone seemed confused, so there was no point in wasting breath asking what was going on. If what she had learned from her superiors about Mirrorspace was correct, and it usually was, then they would learn why this strange and fickle place had called them all here in good time.

And she was inclined to agree with Acubens. It would not be a pleasant reveal.





Dark Mirror Sailor Tegmine

Tegmine arrived with a yelp and a tangle of long limbs. He, like his sister, had been powered up when he had been deposited here. And, like his sister, he had no idea why or how it had happened.

"Is it your first time, too," he asked the senshi he’d landed next to (Loke). There was pain in his voice, but he tried not to show it in his face as he rubbed the shoulder that he’d landed on as he fell in. Not the most graceful landing, he’d admit, but aside from his shoulder, the most wounded thing about him was his pride.

"Welcome back, I guess," he tried to joke with the other senshi as best he could, but the joke didn’t reach his voice. Like his sister, he was preoccupied with questions. "Maybe we should all try and keep in a central group or something. In case this place tries to split us up?"



Dark Mirror Sailor Rana

Rana, who had previously been minding her own business, had been wandering around the city as Fanglan when she passed by an advertisement featuring a full length mirror proclaiming the benefits of some kind of skin treatment. She was inspecting the text which talked about unlocking inner beauty when she had been rather rudely wrenched from her spot and deposited in the room with everyone else.

And worst of all, she’d dropped her crepe.

"My crepe," she murmured pathetically, staring at her empty hands. She took a moment to mourn before she looked up to inspect her surroundings.

Her brother was here (Kiuchi), and she offered him a small wave and a smile. He was with the rest of the group that she usually hung around with when she was powered up, but she didn’t really feel like joining the group. She’d been a senshi for a fair amount of time now, and it was time for her to branch out. She needed to make new friends, stand on her own two feet, and be ready for more responsibility.

And so she wandered over to two senshi, one of whom seemed to be dressed similarly to her (Tsukuyomi and Asuka).

"Acubens always said that Mirrorspace was super rude," she began with a wave. "But I guess I didn’t expect it to be this rude! It took my crepe from me when it took me!" She stuck out her bottom lip in what she hoped was a disarmingly adorable play pout.

Prince Remarque

There were very few times that Remarque thought it was appropriate to tap into more power than his Eternal stage granted him, and nearly all of those times happened to be while he was in Mirrorspace. It was just safer to have that power on hand when you didn’t know what you were walking into.

Like, now.

One minute he’d been exploring Mirrorspace, and thinking it might be a good time to head home before it got too late, and the next he was stepping out into a room full of other Dark Mirror Senshi, with hundreds of tiny little mirrors lining the walls.

Mirrors too small to pass through.

He looked around and a frown settled on his face.

There were no mirrors large enough to pass through, and the one he’d come out of had disappeared almost as soon as he’d stepped through it.

...And, no one seemed to know what was going on.

Cool.

He briefly thought about returning to his Eternal form, just so he wasn't smothering anyone with his energy signature--but this was Mirrorspace, and he didn't want to be caught unawares. Instead, he did his best to draw his wings closer so he wasn't taking up too much space in this slowly crowding room.

His eyes narrowed as he observed the mirrors, looking for something that he was missing. Mirrorspace always gave them what they needed, right? That was how this place worked, how it tried to keep them happy so they stayed attached.

So what did they need so badly that it brought them here?

Open for interaction!

As more Dark Mirror Senshi seemed to be sucked into the strange room, there was a noticeable power surge--occasionally--from just beyond the mirrors. It was like there was something there--a presence that they could feel but couldn’t see.

And, more than that, there was an incessant hum of energy through every little mirror.

No matter how much Loke badgered them to merge together, they didn’t seem to have any desire--or ability--to do so. When he poked at it, the glass rippled, and Lacerta would notice the same effect. If she tried to push her finger through it, it would pass as easily as if she were mirrorwalking--only, beyond the mirror was cold.

And, if anyone kept a finger, a hand, there for too long, it might feel like something was brushing against it--or trying to grab onto them.

It wasn’t forceful, it was desperate.

And, the closer they were to the mirrors, the louder the voice beyond it was.

Sometimes, the whisper of a distant voice--“Hello?” or, “Can you hear me?”

It echoed, beyond the mirror.

Some of them rippled, like something might have been trying to come out. Some of them glowed, and seemed to burst with power.

There was no telling how long they had been in there, or how long they would be in there--but the room seemed to be shifting. Sometimes, it seemed like the ceiling stretched just a bit further out of reach. Sometimes the wall seemed to stretch, just a little further out. And yet, always, every last inch of it was covered in a mirror.

Beneath them, maybe lost amongst the conversations or the other distractions, something was scratching. It wasn’t enough to send vibrations to the floor, but anyone listening closely enough might be able to pick up the constant scratching--sometimes long and slow, sometimes fast and desperate, but always there.

And, gradually getting louder.

DMS Super Lacerta

The fact that the mirror's surface yielded under her touch was nothing that she wasn't really doubting. This was mirror space after all. What she hadn't expected was the strange sensation of cold air on the other side. Her hand left the mirror for a moment as the strongest energy signature flared to life in the room. From that fact alone Lacerta guessed that Remarque had just been dumped into the same room as they were all in now. Going back to studying the mirrors Lacerta let her hand pass through the surface once more before frowning at the sharp difference in ambient temperature. It was beyond strange. Her gaze caught the reflections that were shown to her before she sighed and made the move to withdraw her hand. It was only at that moment that she felt as if something had attempted to grab her hand.

"Okay, that is so not of the norm,"

Teal colored eyes scanned the mirrors around the room before she backed away from them. Her gaze was even as she confirmed that Remarque had indeed joined the throng of dark mirror senshi. He'd have to know what was going on, right? Moving to stand near the Dark Mirror royal Lacerta kept her voice quiet before addressing Remarque in a soft voice, "Not sure if you know what this place is - but it seems like there's something on the other side of the small mirrors. The air feels different on the other side - but I also felt like something brushed against my hand moments ago."
