Antares was out patrolling, bundled up in a long jacket, when the call was sent out. Apparently Cadmus was ready to do whatever he was going to do and even though the senshi didn't trust that guy as far as she could throw him it never hurt to see what he wanted now. Besides seeing what he wanted provided a distraction from the nightmares she had been having more frequently.
For the past month she had been feeling like someone has been watching her. So far the only time she didn't feel like she was being followed was when she stalked the streets in the middle of the night. The blond had been going out longer and more often because of this and when the weather didn't allow for patrolling she burned off her excess energy in the pool or the gym… Anything to keep the nightmares at bay.
Should have grabbed one of those crystals at least. He said they would help me sleep. She thought to herself as she joined the crowd around Cadmus. Glancing around the only person she saw that she recognized was Chaldene so she gradually drifted towards him, pausing a short distance from him. “Time for the fight?” She asked in a hushed voice.

Dallol, Squire of Uranus
There was no mistaking the flinch when Corinth's hand came into contact with Dallol's back. Not again. Was she going to have to walk around with a big neon sign so that the people around her would know that she was already happily attached and stop trying to get fresh with her? With a roll of her eyes, the Uranus Squire turned, intending to give the other person a piece of her mind only to realise that that wouldn't be necessary since the person behind that was her boyfriend Corinth.
"Hey, fancy seeing you here." She gave a wry smile, slipping an arm around his torso and leaning on him a little as she went on to attempt filling him in. "If I'm reading things right, Caedus is going to help us get into the Negaverse stronghold." She hadn't seen this in the dream that she had a couple of months back. The dream of a future in which the senshis and knights had failed miserably and she was forcibly taken from Corinth's side and corrupted to become Buddingtonite's favourite pet.
The shoulder massage that Corinth had initiated was helping to take her mind off things a little. Willing herself to relax some, she couldn't help the sigh as she shared with him her concerns. "I don't like the idea of going in there without a plan. It's too risky."
Even after their conversation with Caedus, Corvus did not have positive feelings about the situation at hand. She did not like the idea of walking straight into the lion's den. Even a surprise attack could go terribly wrong... And what if they couldn't make it back?
It had been sorely tempting to ignore the summons when it came again, but she couldn't. She just couldn't. With a groan she had rolled out of bed, snagged her henshin pen and her phone and slid out the door.
[Text to Denebola:Seems like it's showtime. I'll meet you there? Unless you think this is a bad idea.]
[Text to Denebola:For the record, I think this is a terrible idea. ]

Gevaudan turned to the poitn of introductions, glanced at Sabine and rolled his eyes. "Gevaudan....knight." And that was it. No ties to WHAT kind, but the symbols were there for anyone to connect to which princess.
To Phact, he only smiled to her. "Oh, that's a loaded question. Do you mean overall or in this uniform?"
Sabine couldn't care less if Gevaudan thought she wasn't worth the time for politeness. She had firmly pegged him for a lout and that was going to stick. However, Phact had told her to cool it, so she was going to not incite another fight with the man. Instead, she simply stood quietly and waited for more information from Caedus. As it stood, she was ready to being whatever it was that needed to happen next.
She gave Myrrha and Slievenamon each a small smile, before turning her gaze back to Caedus to wait and see if there was anything more the cloaked figure needed.

Corinth, Page of Neptune
"I felt the tug, figured you would probably end up here yourself," Corinth said as he let his fingers work his girlfriend's shoulders, trying to keep her from tensing up since he knew she didn't like what was going on around them. "No, I agree, it seems like a bad idea to go in without a solid plan, but it's not like we had a lot of time to plan." He said with a small chuckle.
"That said - we'd have to rely on information from those who transferred sides, and you know, work as a team - something that our group as a whole seems to lack the ability to do."
He made a face at that, thinking on how disjointed order was. Still, there wasn't much he could do as a page - it's not like people would listen to him.

Sailor Goretti, Chibi Senshi of Glue
Goretti wasn't sure he was comfortable being here, or that he even really belonged. He didn't have anything against Caedus, and after meeting with him once, alone, after the first meeting he found that he actually liked him. At the very least, he'd had some interesting things to say about space, and he seemed like he could have benefited from having a friend.
But here? Now?
Goretti had been a bundle of nerves ever since he felt the second pull. He had barely gathered any energy at all, and what he did he felt dirty about. He slept better, sure, but he wasn't sure it was a clean sleep.
Of course, he dreamed of Cavansite, and he never felt good after that.
Once more he moved to the back of the crowd; he could listen, but didn't want to be in the spotlight. To be honest, everything sounded so serious—everyone sounded so serious. The idea of actually storming the Negaverse—destroying things…
It scared him. He didn't think he wanted to be involved in any part of it, but there were people here that mattered to him, and if they thought it was a good idea—if Lenka thought it was a good idea…
He hadn't approached her, or spoken to her about this, but he saw her up front, talking to the guy like he was an old friend. Goretti liked to think she had a good judge of character, and he wanted to think all of this was just to make sure this guy could get home.
…If things got too serious, the greater perk of remaining on the outskirts of the group was that he could always run away without anyone noticing. Hopefully.
Sailor Adria, Senshi of Sunsets
This was so far out of Adria's comfort zone that he was pretending like he was just Lysithea's shadow. She was stronger—older. She'd been doing this for longer than he had, and he was more than happy to let her make the calls. He didn't have the faintest idea what was really going on here, and even though they'd been to visit Caedus and the man had left a decent impression, Adria was not a violent type. He wasn't even a social type, so coming out here, knowing there was danger, and knowing he'd be stuck in the middle of the crowd wasn't exactly how he'd have planned his ideal night.
There was a lump in his throat and butterflies in his stomach as he followed after Lysithea. When the crowd got too thick, he grabbed her hand to make sure he didn't lose her.
…And then he saw Enif and Cassiopeia and Pye and tugged Lysithea in their direction.
He did not know them personally, but knowing that the group they'd been next to last time was here brought him a bit of reassurance—and Lysithea had seemed to know and trust at least one of them. He waved as he moved to stand near them, but he did not speak.
…Partially because he didn't want to miss what everyone else was saying, or interrupt…and partially because he knew his voice would tremble and he really didn't want to deal with the awkwardness of social anxiety like this.

Newgrange, Squire of Earth
Newgrange was far from calm, but he held himself well given the circumstances. He had met with Caedus only once after the meeting, because the opportunity had been there and because he had worked up the nerve to try and get to know this guy better.
Newgrange wanted to have faith in everyone—wanted to believe in everyone.
And strange aliens who crawled from the Negaverse's lair didn't deserve to be denied the chance. He still hadn't made up his mind about this attack on the Negaverse, but it would be foolish to miss this opportunity. Caedus was determined that they would have a route in, and out, and that they could strike in such a way that would cause damage.
Newgrange wasn't so interested in harming the Negaverse, but he was interested in making sure that if he had the ability to help, it was being utilized.
…And there were those whispers of the Academy.
He had dreamed about it. Dreamed about his ancestor's cold eyes. Dreamed about finding the answers he needed to make sense of things.
Newgrange might not have wanted to fight, but he had Caedus to thank for those dreams; for the first time in a long time, he had slept through the whole night.
His crystal glistened, swirling white. He did not approach Caedus, but he passed the crystal forward to those that were collecting them. He kept his eyes open and scanned the crowd for familiar faces; he did not tell Sherwood he was coming, if only because he didn't want to worry her if she disagreed, but…
If she was here, he wanted to be with her for this.
Whatever might happen.

Andronicus Squire of Uranus
The squire stepped forward and gave the filled crystal to Caedus, the smaller round one he'd given her hanging on a chain around her neck. She smiled and stepped back, spinning her ring on her finger and pulling up the messaging feature within the system. A message was sent to Themiscrya, who she figured would get the message to the rest of her group if they weren't already on the way.
To Themiscrya
Hey, s**t's going down tonight. Could use you're help if you guys are up for it. Let me know.
Andronicus rolled her shoulder, cracking joints and steeling herself. There was a very large chance she was doing this without people she trusted, and an even larger chance she wouldn't come back. Well, if that wasn't motivating, she didn't know what was.

Sailor Skoll, Senshi of the Pack
Oh her brother was going to kill her for doing this, and for being pumped about doing this. Skoll couldn't help it, not really. Of the two, she was the braver twin, always going first regardless of danger. Two hundred pound youma were hard to take down, but those agents didn't look that heavy. She'd knock some heads together and keep going.
If it made it safe enough her brother would want to go patrolling with her? Skoll would do it. She loved Hati to death, but sometimes he frustrated her to no ends.
To Hati
its time. gunna go in first, ya gunna come rescue me right? 8'D
Hopefully the jab and rather excited emoji would have her brother doing what he did best; saving her a**.

Bifrost Knight of Chronos
It was very difficult for Bifrost to not stare at the back of Celsus' head with a sort of "...really" expression. Not that she minded being ignoring and clearly unwanted but, he could at least say 'not now' or 'i wanna be alone' or something. Maybe he was going through a rough time, and wasn't handling it well. It was a legitiment reason to be distant and more alloof than a yak.
She took a steadying breath, and instead walked over to Virgo, and the two with her. Bifrost smiled, bowing her head in greeting, and tucked her hands under her cape.
"It's good to see you Virgo. Wish it was under better circumstances, but nothing brings us together like impending doom," said the knight with a chuckle, transcendent markings glowing softly against her skin. "I don't think I've met you two... Bifrost, Transcendent Knight of Chronos." She introduced herself to both Quail's Eye and Aegir in the same moment, smiling at them.

Chibi Senshi Iduna of Apples
She wasn't going to go. She told herself she was going to stay inside, ignore any and all calls from strange beings, and work on her homework. Iduna was going to do absolutely nothing about this whole, venturing in to the place of evil and killing it. She couldn't help destroy it to begin with, why should she go.
The first crash echoed from the hallway outside her door.
Thoughts went to Teide and Hvergalmir, two very nice ladies who would be going to protect their friends. They were strong, knights of their planet (that's how she figured it worked) and capable.
The second shook the wall between her room and the living room, the sound of a heavy chair crashing against it.
She thought of Castor, with his giant wings and immense knowledge base. He would go, without question. He would end chaos were it stood for what he stood for. He would not back down from a fight.
A yell took the place of the third crash; her mother had started taking self defense lessons and employed them in her fits of rage now.
Then she thought of Cadmus, and the other chibi senshi she'd seen at the first meeting. All those kids were going to go into the Castle and try to tear down the thing called Metallia. All while she hid and tried to ignore any of it happening. Cadmus would need someone to help distract enemies for him.
No she had a project to do, she couldn't go out and---
Would she rather sit here and try to ignore the war outside her door, or ignore the larger war she was a part of?
Iduna weaved through the group until she came up on Cadmus and the senshi he was with. The chibi senshi tried to not look completely terrified, but she couldn't help it. This was very dangerous, after all.
"Hi Cadmus... mind if I, um, stick with you with this?" she asked quietly, fingering her skirt in nervousness.
Was she super confident about this idea of raiding the Negaverse? She wasn't sure. She was too new to really know either way. Cassiopeia had been drafted into this war rather late but... if they really could tip more of the balance... really could make a difference....
Loosening the bag with her teeth, she stepped forward just enough to return the crystal within to Caedus. Standing closer to him then, she paused and looked towards the man with a slight... frown on her face. Her grip around Pye tightened a little.
"Where will we be going, exactly? Do you know where this... gateway will open up into, I mean? An exact room name, or something..?" Shifting a little on her feet, her lips pressed together as she fought to corral her words into proper, coherent, sentences. "Can you give us more detail about what exactly we'll be walking into once we go through this gate? Is there a map we could take to help those of us who've never been there get around..?"
Ok so that was majorly wishful thinking but worth a shot...
Spotting Adria and Lysithea near Enif just a little behind her, she smiled a bit more and waved a little to greet them. It was a bit more... relaxing to see those she knew there. It was a comfort. Minor. But a comfort.

Sailor Hati, Senshi of the Cu-Sith
Ok in his defense on this time, he was actually heading out to the call when he'd sensed it before his senshi phone ring-a-ding-ding'd him and he summoned it from subspace or wherever the ******** it went... and promptly cussed an incredible amount for a guy running at near top speed towards the site of the previous meeting.
The prospect of meeting the Negaverse head on sent shivers down his spine, and adrenaline coursing through his veins. His fists remembered quite well the sensation of beating up that Captain held captive--well, one of them--and though he knew it wouldn't be the same on this playing field... He wouldn't deny the excitement to rid the world of the ******** that seemed to be behind all these messes.
By the time he reached Skoll, he'd at least run out of swears and instead tossed his tattooed arm around his twin's shoulders, silver eyes looking to green with a smirk. "Like ********' hell y're leavin' me t' deal with the old man by myself. Sides. Someone's gotta watch your idiot a** in there." The rough words were lightened by the affectionate squeeze he gave her before he looked towards the cloaked man.
Skoll's message had asked if he'd come in to rescue her. It was Hati's intention to just flatly keep her from needing to be rescued in the first place.

Super Sailor Metis, Senshi of the Third Eye
Like before, Metis approached with an arm linked with Houshi's, whom she'd long since shared the details of her meeting with Caedus when the senshi'd brought him some supplies. She... felt far more content with their visitor (return visitor?) than she'd been the first night. "I still can't believe this is happening," she murmured to her friend, head tilting a bit towards the other girl as she spoke quietly. "I realize it's fool's gold if we expect this to be a perfect scenario, the event that leads to the end of the war once and for all... but if we can really even gain an edge, strike a really blow to the Negaverse.... give them a taste of their own invading medicine..." Her words trailed off as they entered the crowd, unwilling to enter into any sort of debate or confrontation with anyone whom might not agree with her hopeful views.
Filled crystal in hand--away from the Page of course, as she had no intention to accidentally drain anything from anyone else--she was a bit apologetic to Houshi as she sort of lead them towards the front where she could better hear Caedus himself. When she moved up to return the crystal to him, she smiled and bowed her head in greeting. "It's good to see you again." Letting the crystal leave her possession without hesitation, she did frown a bit as she considered what they were trying to do. "Caedus... something I've been wondering. If you have to use so much energy to get us in... how are we supposed to return, or even retreat if necessary?"
That was... the largest hang up for her. The prospect of being trapped in the Negaverse's domain was not particularly appealing... Nor was the prospect of none of them even being capable of... leaving, even if they had a way... Pushing those thoughts away, she focused on her question and hoped for a reassuring answer.

Themiscyra, Squire of Mars
Well. She'd gone last time. Themiscyra got the call sure enough, and though she had no crystal to turn in, she'd joined the crowed, lingering towards the rear of the group, though the idea of moving further up to maybe get through this supposed gate faster was tempting... But she remained back.
So when she got the message from Andronicus, she'd perked up, trying to spot the hooded Squire through the crowd as she fiddled with her ring to return the message. She wasn't entirely thrilled with how this technology came about... but even she wasn't gonna be enough of an idiot to say it wasn't useful as hell...
To Andronicus
In the back. Sending out heads up to the others if they're on their way. Meet me back here?
That sent, she again pulled up the messaging feature, this time sending out a quick copy-pasted note to Valhalla, Kairatos, Ganymede, and Alexandria.
Notes
Looks like it's happening. At the hill, same as last time. Joining on this insanity?
At least once that was done, she let out a breath and returned her attention to the questions being raised about what they were about to jump into. Her fingers itched to form fists, to summon her weapon and race into... into what? There were no maps. No plans of attack. No strategy meeting, no... no nothing. They were running in blind.
"I realize this is likely a redundant question," she started, raising a hand to try and catch Cadeus' attention as she spoke, "but what sort of resistance will we be hitting first? Youma, I'm expecting the answer to be, but will these be the same sorts we've seen around the streets here, or worse soon as we step foot there? Can you give us any information to help us brace ourselves for what we're facing?"

Skye Starrfyre
Super Sailor Denebola
Denebola had decided the second that she received the call that she was going. She held a crystal, that had gone unused for a majority of the time in her possession, with what might possibly the most minimal amount of gathered energy possible. It'd been pressed to her own skin a few times as she experimented with it and it's properties, but the timing had always been short and once she felt the exhaustion settle over her she'd stopped.
Her phone went off and she glanced at the text as she pulled her coat on, stopping long enough to shoot her a quick reply.
[Text to Corvus:I'm going]
It'd been straight to the point and the redhead didn't say if she thought it was a bad idea. It was, she knew it was, but she was going anyway. She'd told Caedus that she didn't leave people behind.
She'd shied away from an event like this in the past and she regretted it, she wasn't going to do that again.
[Text to Corvus:Meet on the outskirts and move into the middle. I want to be able to get his attention easily if needed.]
She didn't have a lot to say to him, even if there had been a bunch of new questions that'd come to her mind since they'd spoken. She was nervous, worried but with Corvus by her side, she felt better.
She found the raven-haired senshi easily, slipping beside her like it was where she was meant to be.
"I know you think it's a bad idea," she said softly, "but what if people die because we chose to be stay home and be cowards?"
Castor had arrived with the rest of them. Staying for the most part, silently in the back. His arm showing the faint tell-tale signs of having been recently healed over from a deep wound. Dark blue eyes had been drifting to Gevaudan and then to Virgo for highly different reasons. He didn't want both of them present.
One he wanted to kill, no matter the so call knight's usefulness, he had all but said he was loyal still to the negaverse, to it's ideals. To what it offered. The other present, he'd given something that had ripped a hole in his heart and soul, and she was trusted to keep that part of him safe. If she died-
He didn't want to think about it.
Still, he had to do what was his task. What was expected.
The crystal was held in his hand, and wish a sigh, he changed, wings forming as air chilled around him breifly before he walked forward.
"Caedus." He adressed the figure, and loudly asked so all could hear him-
"Are you prepared in the event that we fail? That we might become trapped, that we die or worse, that our very souls, our starseeds are ripped from our bodies and are twisted and we are made to be nothing more than tools, puppets on strings? Are we-" His face turned to face the gathered crowd.
"Are we ready to face the possibility of having our very souls destroyed, of being corrupted and use to kill the ones we hold most dear? To become corrupt, or worse, youma?" He would not let them, could not let them act with out confronting it, to have it spoken and not just remain a thought in the back of their minds.
"Whatever we do, we must be ready to face the outcome. We, as a force, must be ready to watch our allies fall. We must be ready to push forward and move as one to KILL our enemy. If we seek to become the invaders we have been called for years, we must stand ready. They will kill. If you chose to fight, you must be ready to kill to stop them, to defend yourself. Purification in the heart of Chaos will not be an option for us to give them. There will be no mercy given to us. We will be their invaders. We will be all they have called us. Even if we survive, if we succeed, we will have given them one undeniable truth. We will have entered a place they thought themselves safe, just as they have done to us time and time again. There WILL be retribution for this. If we invade, we must be ready to commit to it. After this, there will be blood spilled, and it will just as much on our own hands as their own.
He locked eyes with the alien who promised them the opportunity. Who had said there would be a way out, but remained as unattached to them as before. "Unless you can accept that responsibility, unless you are ready to face the demands and outcomes of an invasion, then it is best you dwell upon this decision."
Closer he closed the distance between himself and Caedus. His final words for the once prisoner and him alone.
"I want to trust, but even now, I am too jaded to do this without caution. Betray us Caedus, use us and abandon us, and I will hunt you down. I will not let you lead them to a slaughter, I will not them die for nothing."
He gave the alien his crystal, dark blue eyes cold and distant. If people listened, if they headed his words or not would mean little. In the end it hinged on the being before them. A stranger who had nothing to lose, but everything to gain.

Eternal Sailor Corvus
A part of Corvus hoped that the two of them standing next to one another, expressions serious and voices low, came off as intimidating. Puffing up and seeming cross made her feel less anxious about the situation.
Nothing would make her less irritated about it. There was no organization. No leadership. Too many questions still unanswered. They didn't have enough information to be rushing into the heart of the Negaverse.
To top it all off there were Chibi Scouts popping up left and right and that only served to deepen her scowl as she tilted her head closer to Denebola. "I don't like the idea of taking children into the Rift. I know we were young when all of this started, but we weren't that young. I--"
Any further words she might have had to say were cut short by Castor's arrival. Corvus did not know if she could kill. She knew that Vengeance was cruel and swift, but as to whether or not she could carry through and kill? The eternal senshi had seen others die at the hands of the Negaverse and she would not become them. At the very least she hoped that his speech would inspire some and perhaps frighten others into going home and going back to sleep.
"We go in together and we come out together, Denebola. Protect the others and ourselves so we live to make foolish decisions again?"
Denebola stood straight and tall, too the full five feet and eleven inches of height her wedges gave her when Castor gave his long winded speech. It wasn't anything she didn't already know and she wondered with the way chaos was aggressive, how anyone wouldn't expect every part of this to be incredibly dangerous and life threatening
Still, the woman was strong in her resolve. She was here to make sure the people she cared about made it out alive and Denebola didn't care. She refused to take the life of someone else. The negaverse, the dark mirrors -- they were misguided, misinformed. They deserved a chance to be saved, not killed just because some whack-job demanded it.
"We get in and we get out together, we make sure the people we care about - " her mismatched eyes caught sight of a familiar uniform, Celsus, and her stomach churned before she looked at Corvus. "I'm not leaving the people I care about behind." Her voice steady and strong. "I'm not killing anyone either," she said pointedly. She would incapacitate as needed but she wasn't killing anyone.
That'd make them just like the negaverse and she expected better, at least of herself. "We protect the children too."

Sailor Myrrha, Senshi of Scents
The senshi of scents nodded to each person as they had been introduced. Her mind was still whirring about what she had been told and now the choice was in her hands about which group she wished to join. Taking a moment to think Myrrha smiled at Phact and Sabine before watching the area. Her decision was finalized.
"Thank you everyone for making me feel welcome. I feel though that I need to check in with another friend who is nearby."
That being said Myrrha turned around and headed back to were she had seen Cassiopeia last. Perhaps she should have stuck with the larger group in order to gain some insight about what was going on but she very much wanted to check in with the senshi of wonder before doing anything else rash.
Spotting Cassiopeia's profile ahead Myrrha jogged over to the senshi and gave her a quiet greeting. "Hey Cassiopeia."
Hugbell had joined the crowd and when Caedus asked for the crystal she returned it to him when it was her turn. Butter yellow eyes turned to Castor though as he spoke. Her eyes lingered and she shook her head. She wasn't going to address him, and while he might have been right . . . the former chibi was hoping there were still other ways of doing things. She looked around to the others, that were gathered there.
She hummed softly a comforting tune, at least to soothe herself if not those around her. Castor was thinking far too dark thoughts, "We should stay positive while we're there as well. After all, dark thoughts in a dark place may not do us wise." She was talking to herself but anyone close to her could probably hear her. However she spotted a familiar senshi that she hadn't seen in forever near by Corvus seemed particularly gloomy and she was talking to another senshi, Denebola; that Hugbell didn't know. "Corvus!" She said moving to give the older senshi a hug. "I haven't seen you in agessss! I was worried about you!" the teenager beamed and then looked to Corvus' friend and waved hello!
Niflhel was listening to the chatter though he'd blocked most of it out. Snowball was with him, and he was hoping Polaris wasn't far behind. He turned in his and snowball's crystals to Caedus when the mysterious man came to collect them.
"Snow we're going to have to be careful when we go in. Vigilant." He paused on his thoughts at some other words traveled to them, Castor's indirectly. "I don't want to think about that, but we need to keep in mind it's possible. We don't want the future, this isn't how that happens." He said cryptically to the cat.
Snowball was seated on Niflhel's shoulders frowning as he hear the chatter, caught words. There was uncertainty there were mentions of death and corruption. . . Snowball shook his head, "Yeah I agree, we need to keep vigil."
He stretched a little, "We should see what the area's like and figure out a plan of attack. If we have to split up or otherwise." He was looking for Polaris, hopefully the princess wouldn't be far behind. They could really use her. . .
Halley had been playing with her crystal on and off, she wasn't totally thrilled with it. After all she still wasn't sure about it but her own curiosity about it kept getting the better of her. So she'd play with it for a few hours at night before she went to bed, on and off mindful of how much she let it drain. She kind of also used it on the house maid Rosie who kept being weird. . . though when Caedus asked for the crystals she gladly gave it to him. The senshi of superstition was listening to the chatter and her attention was caught by some of the words mentioned corruption, death, youma?
Her eyes widened, "Wait they can do all that!?" It was hard to tell if she was confused or if she was curious about how all that happened. Granted the senshi really didn't want to find out on a personal level. She was however, curious however how those processes worked, well . . . all expect the death one. . . . that one was pretty self explanatory. . . . Halley stopped and shook her head, no those were morbid thoughts, she didn't need or want any of that taint. She looked around at the rest of the crowd there were Chibi senshi too. . . "Huh, guess they're curious too. Hopefully they'll be able to keep close to people that can help protect them."
Odainsaker had joined the group and settled herself nearby the crowd. She'd decided to dress in a lalic purple cloak that had golden stars on it, in order to keep warm. Her arms were still free to move and she could ditch the cloak in a second if she had to. Thankfully the Page of Cosmos was fairly well versed in cosplay and historical re-enactments or she'd be worried about bringing her cloak along.
The Page was making sure that the fastener was easy enough to remove and replace clipping it and then just pulling it away. "Man if only I was better versed in the Argentine tango. I could lay some fancy moves on the negaverse." She mused as she hummed offering Caedus her crystal when he came to collect it.
