“That’s fine.” He didn’t really want to deal with senshi things…but space..damn it. He was conflicted on his opinion on this whole matter. “You should talk to people who deal with aquariums - big ones. You might need their help, for ideas, if you frame the question right.,..as if you are asking about an aquarium instead of an ocean.” They could offer up ideas which he’d just need to multiply to handle an ocean instead of a large tank.
“I’m not a fighter, I’ve never been in a fight. I don’t think I can help you much, not like you need or want anyway.” Especially if they had to learn to fight using an arm like that. If they were all that small he could understand the other's comment about that, though to think of humans as taller than aliens…..he supposed anything was possible really. Just that most shows, and movies, had aliens as being larger than humans…at least most. Men in Black did show some smaller…

“Aquariums? I can try looking that up at the library.” He’d make his way over there during the daytime and try to figure some things out. It was nice and quiet there most times and one of the nice librarians always helped him out. He figured it might be because he looked young to them because he was small but it also seemed like a lot of humans treated him nicer because he wasn’t whole really anymore. It was something he noticed more and more as he watched how people reacted to him, humans at least. It was a bit different with the other ancient senshi like him, each of them had their own struggles and ways they’d come to be here so there was a bit more understanding and connectedness to it all.
“Well we can try, right? I mean even if you aren’t fighting monsters and chaos, I’ve seen some really rude people trying to rob others at night. They didn’t feel like chaos so I just assume it’s something else?” He’d seen it once but didn’t really know how to intervene given the fact he wasn’t human, even in his disguise it didn’t really give him the background knowledge on how things were here. It was stuff he was slowly picking up, slower still considering most of the senshi he met weren’t human either.
Turning to look around at the area, he offered an encouraging smile. “It helps you too, if you want to come to space with me I need to get stronger to be able to bring you. But as a bit of incentive, you can have this!” Pulling something from subspace, he held out a small glass bead. It was a rainbow of colors, some that seemed to almost change in the light. “From my planet, a lot of things were done with fabrics and textiles. I still make things, here and there with what I have left. There’s a lot more hidden beneath the waves there but I can’t get to it yet. Even before everything with the water happened I was locked out of that part of my world.” Rolling the bead between his fingers, letting them see it in the light, he held it firmly and waited to see if they would agree or not.

Looking over the bead, then back to the other, he nodded slowly and reached out for it. “You’d be in trouble jumping between a fight like you described. Someone was clearly being robbed of their goods and it’s likely the one doing the robbing was armed with some sort of weapon. I don’t think you’re prepared for that sort of thing.” It also seemed very much like this alien senshi was new - very new. They still didn’t understand a lot about this planet and the people here. Someone needed to teach him, or show him where to learn things from, he just hoped he didn’t need to do it.
“You don’t have anyone who can teach you more about this planet and the people here? Because it might keep you safe, and help you blend in, if you understand things better.” He did not want to be the one to teach him either, it would a lot of work, he didn’t have the time to go teaching someone about his planet…he wasn’t even sure where to begin as it seemed overwhelming from just the surface.
“I’ll see…what I can do to help you with your planet….go to a pet store and ask the people in the fish department as well.”

Procyon was happy with the response they gave, it seemed positive enough and he nodded. “Okay, I’ll remember that then. I do have a place that I stay at but most of the others there are like me. There is one human there but they’re quite busy but I’ve learned a bit so far about this world. I do have a way to blend in too.” He quite liked the glamor that Miss Illyria had made him.
“I can go to one of those though, a pet store? I think I’ve seen some while wandering around. I’ll do that here soon since I’ve got to look into a few other things as well while in disguise.” He needed to find a few more things for his little room and maybe something to help fight against how dry the air was here.

“That or a store specific to aquariums.” He was certain there were stores that focused on just fish and the needs for those who kept aquariums, as it was an expensive hobby he knew, it was likely there had to be stores just for those who indulged in the hobby so they had options and could talk to experts rather than those who worked in a basic pet store, where they had a general knowledge of things.
“You can ask those pet stores about stores that only deal with fish and aquariums as well, that might offer more information and help.” The idea of more aliens, more like this one, was…interesting. He both wanted to know more but also wanted to avoid these magical things as much as he could. This was not something he wanted any part in - too dangerous.

“Oh, so they have specific places to go. That sounds better then. I’ll do that then and see. I can message you maybe questions from time to time then and maybe that practice I mentioned.” He was a bit adamant about that and more than a little curious to find out more about this human. It was easier to decide on what he wanted to do when someone was being stubborn and also the fact that they seemed to be curious about him as well.
“I should head home though, I don’t want to run across any of those chaos agents again. Be safe okay Pleione? I’ll talk to you soon!” Waving as he pulled his phone up with that little GPS pin, he started wandering back home and ducked out of sight to get back into his glamor. The bright and clashing colors of his outfit always made him happy, if he could find a way to make his own outfits out of the seemingly limitless fabrics available in this world that would be one more thing he felt sure about.
