Dallol is through the indigo door and stumbling into a bookshelf
"You're welcome..." It was the Senshi whom Dallol tried approaching earlier. Coming up to thank her for what she did before Celsus sent all of them on their little exploration of his Wonder and then dashing through the orange door as soon as it was open. Did they even know each other's names? No not really. Perhaps Dallol was thinking a little too much on this entire thing, but she couldn't shake the feeling that the Senshi was just using her as a convenient mean to fulfill the condition that Celsus had set for them in this room.
Awkward.
"We chatted for a while at the entrance." The Squire explained the sudden intrusion with a wry smile. No point harping on the negativity and risk ruining what seemed like a budding friendship between Caliban and her. "Anyway, back to what we were talking about. I don't think that there's any shame to be had if you lose in a battle at this point with how new you are to all this. It's good that you have the desire to do good with the powers that were gifted to you but I think that you should give yourself some time to um... orientate yourself, know your strengths and limitations in order to move forward."
It was the usual run of the mill kind of pep talk. Nothing terribly fancy though Dallol really hoped that it would help to cheer up Caliban some after the sigh that he gave.
"I know what you mean there. I feel like that at times too. Like why does it have to be me out of so many people out there? Life is already complicated enough as it is without all these additional responsibilities coming into the picture." There. That was her two cents on that matter, the sombre mood lightening up some as she laughed at the proposed book titles that were intended for newbie senshis and knights. "Ya know... maybe you and I can do that. I'll cover the knights and you can cover the senshis. We'll make a huge fortune from the royalties and then retire from this all."
A silly thought really but everyone needed something like that from time to time yes?
"If I'm supposed to have a phone in this form, I sure haven't seen it so far. I'm ok with exchanging numbers after this though. See if we can patrol and train together. Good to watch each other's backs out there. You're a nice guy Caliban but trust me on that when I said that you've been putting up with me so far." She trailed off with a wink, starting to make her way towards the indigo door now that it was open.
The moment Dallol was through the door and in the next room, she stopped for a moment to marvel at the decor and take in the lovely contrast of theme and colours from the rooms that she had been into prior. Just how many rooms are there in total in this place anyway?
"As the saying goes, ladies first?"
Flashing a sideway glance and a smile at Caliban, Dallol started to cross the obstacle-laden room. So far so good, except for a mis-timed jump that had her knocking over some books from one of the many bookshelves. No biggy. Just a little stop to pick them up and return them to their rightful place before she resumed scaling the rest of the furniture that stood between her and the next set of doors.

Dallol is through the indigo door and made it past the obstacles and now waiting for Caliban to join her in deciding on the next door
Dallol had this.
This was nothing compared to an entire team of defenders and mid-fielders on the opposing team trying to put themselves between her and her goal on the soccer field. As soon as she got into the momentum of things, the Squire found that it was relatively easy to breeze through the remainder of the obstacles and found herself reaching the other end of the room in no time.
Turning around to see if she could locate her newfound senshi friend Caliban, she lifted both of her arms and waved to him dramatically as she shouted at the top of her voice.
Aquila was slow to get going, since she was trying to make sure that her path was clear and she wasn't getting caught on anyone else. But once she was sure there was nothing else to trip her up, she started jogging. She wasn't going that fast yet, but at least she was going.
Sailor Zeta Corvi | Pink Door > Brown Door > Indigo Door > Royal Blue Door
Walking into this room, Zeta followed his lead and looked at the note. When she read it, then looked around the room, the young woman had to swallow. "For give me Sir Falias but I have to say I think our host either had far too much fun designing these rooms or his wonder wished to play a cruel trick on us all."
With a bit of a nervous sigh, she made a move for the pieces laid out before them.
Some how, some way...she made it across without an issue. Don't question luck.
However Zeta winced watching Falias struggle with the books though, answered his question by turning to look at the doors. "I might be showing favoritism here but...blue?" She asked with a soft smile towards him.

Senshi CalibanIndigo Door to ??? Caliban smiled at her, glad that he would at least have a friend after this. "I just wish I knew what purpose I had in all of this. I don't feel as though I'm contributing as much as I should be. I'll get back to you on that manual thing though once we're a bit stronger and have a bit more experience. I think it would be great for newbies like me." He really was thinking about making one. And he could do the writing on the cover to with his calligraphy! He was starting to get excited for this! Or maybe he really just wanted to go home and practice calligraphy some more when he got back from all of this.
He could only smile, shrug, and shake his head at Dallol saying he was putting up with her. He knew she was joking at this point, no need to say anything. And followed her through the door. Well, this room certainly was interesting. Now they had to actually do some work instead of just using their brains!
However before he knew it, Dallol had gotten to the other side and was calling after him. Well, he would show her! Or at least try to. He tried to figure out if he could use some of his parkouring skills over the obstacles, but that was a no go as they were very unbalanced. However, he eventually made his way over, even if he could have fallen several times, and met the squire at the other end. He winked back at her. "Now, that wasn't so hard was it?"

Chibi Megumi - Green door - going for gold door
Now that Megumi had found a pendant, she went to look for her friends. She didn't have far to look though, because Lepus came up to her with a pendant of her own. "That's great!" Megumi told the other chibi, and took a look at the girl's pendant. It looked to be the same as the one she'd found, so maybe they all looked the same?
"I'm thinking the gold door, to match the pendants," she answered. "Which one are you thinking? And I wonder what Rhea's planning to pick." She looked around for the other girl so she could ask, but realized she didn't see the brightly-colored chibi anywhere.
"Huh, she's not here," she noted. "Do you think she went through the other door instead?"
Erytheia winced as he watched the books fall onto Aegir, but was relived when he made it across anyway. It looked like he was not alone either.
"You made it!" The man was happy that the two had made it to the gold door. Erytheia didn't recognize the female senshi other than that she was of the same rank as the senshi of silence. He should introduce himself to someone of such high rank as well.
"Nice to meet your acquaintance. My name is Erytheia."
He was starting to feel a bit overwhelmed when a fellow page of Cosmos joined them too. She seemed to want his attention.
"Are you of Cosmos as well?" He wanted to ask her formally and not just assume. That would be rude. There were now many people he didn't know on this side of the dark room and Erytheia didn't quite know what to do with himself. Who should he be greeting and should he be showing deference to rank now that they were forming a group? He was beginning to second guess himself again.
With a smile to the others as they changed rooms, Phact headed through the door and just had to chuckle as she gazed at the length of this room. "Long indeed." She chuckled before beginning the long hike.
Phact made it a single step before someone on one of the shelves caught her attention. Smiling, she gazed up at it, nearly reaching out for it before she realized this was not the time or place.
"I may have to come back and find this room one day."

Irkalla, Indigo Room - Gonna choose Royal Blue Door
Irkalla glanced back and forth between the two doors still waffling on a choice. The page had noted that Minkowski had successfully made it across the room and she gave the senshi a smile. Her attention was then drawn to the similar attired page as he asked his question. Smiling broadly Irkalla held out her hand. "I am a page of Cosmos. I assume that because you ask that you are one as well?"
Irkalla noted Minkowski lining up near the royal blue door and suddenly her choice was clarified. Although it would mean once again just meeting a new person and dashing she was hoping to perhaps exchange names with everyone. It was a little overwhelming having so many individuals around but she was coping. Turning her attention back to the page her voice was quiet, but clear "I'm Irkalla of Cosmos. And who am I addressing?"
Irkalla kept her gaze on the group and watched for when the doors would open. She tried to catch Minkowski's eyes to indicate that she would follow her.
Super Sailor Oberon / Blue > Forest > Orange > ???/ Talking to Oort and Skadi
Oberon thought he happened to be pretty clever, but apparently all he ended up doing was making Skadi flustered. Which was kind of cute, but not really what he’d meant to do. His jaw practically dropped when she turned to compliment Oort and left him with little more than a thank you and touch to his arm. Which was fine. Really.
He was almost upset, especially after they both agreed on the orange door, but then to his surprise, Skadi leaned up to whisper to him, his eyes widening for a moment and he could stupidly feel his cheeks heat up a bit.
Okay, so, he supposed he could understand how she felt to suddenly be complimented like she was, because it kind of threw him off guard as well. He watched as she made her way to the door, and he glanced down at Oort with still wide eyes, and then grinned at him with a thumbs up when he was pretty sure Skadi wasn’t watching.
The orange room was almost too bright, but he supposed he didn’t mind it. But it was huge.
“Run? Jeez…” he as he turned around so he could walk backwards and look at his two companions as he went. “What do you say? Should we run?”

Sessrumnir of Jupiter / Blue > Magenta > Orange > ??? / Hanging around Metis and Fenrir (i guess)
Sessrumnir snorted softly in amusement at Metis’s poem, although his mouth twitched at the corners. “That was pretty good, too,” he said with a small shake of his head, and then turned to watch where Fenrir was going. “You don’t want us to describe it to you. It’s horrible,” he added with a small grimace.
And then scowled at the note that was hanging from the ceiling. “The room is really long, sorry. - Somehow it doesn’t seem like he’s very sorry,” he commented as he read the note out loud for Metis. “Maybe if you run you can make it to the end - or walking. Walking is safer,” he said, and then turned to see as Oberon and his two friends made it into the room as well.
“Don’t you dare run,” he frowned at his brother, crossing his arms over his chest as he followed the others across the room. Luckily he had long legs and could take bigger strides.
Walking past the collection of books that caught her eye, Phact was able to make it quite a bit farther down the hallway before she stopped a moment to gaze at the windows.
Natural light always made people happier. At least her.
Finally! She made it to the end of the room and gazed at the two doors. It was almost a coin flip but Phact decided the Silver door was calling her name.
Slowly, she stepped over to that one.

Chibi Super Sailor Oort - With Skadi and Oberon - in the room beyond the orange door - no choice yet
Oort consideredOberon'squestion seriously because running would get the room over and done with quicker and then his reddish glanced over as he heard a voice telling them not to run (Sessrumnir) - well at least Oort assumed the comment was being directed their way as he recognised the man from earlier.
He wrinkled his nose slightly at him, before turning his attention back to Oberon andSkadi.
"Well the room is pretty long" he said "So running would prob'ly get it over quicker and the note did mention running so the Celsus guy might not mind us doing so..."
Because why mention it otherwise.
"But if magic's okay then I could try using my magic - since it sometimes gives a speed boost..."
He frowned slightly as he admitted "Although I don't know if Celsus wants us using magic."
A thought occurred to him and he added "Do either of you have a particular door you want to try? Because if so maybe we should try heading in that direction from now."
Oort himself didn't have any real preference - both doors looked good to him.
Falias Knight of Earth - In the room beyond the indigo door with Sailor Zeta Corvi - going for the royal blue door
"That works for me" Falias agreed with a smile as he started to step towards theroyal bluedoor, relieved thatZeta Corvihad managed to make it through the hodgepodge of the room okay.
