They'd met in The Rift. Chromite had watched as the senshi were essentially looked over, and the scolded by the General Queen. Even though she agreed that they needed to earn forgiveness for what they once had done the girl couldn't help but feel as though the senshi were being treated more harshly then necessary. As she'd watched, Chromite had frowned and once everything had settled and they were all free to leave or do as they pleased she had made her way over to the senshi.
As it had turned out, Alkaid liked to cook. Alkaid liked to cook and has a boyfriend that eats everything. As far as Chromite could remember the term that had been used had been 'black hole', and the thought made her smile.
---
So there she was- At Alkaid's apartment with three large grocery bags brimming with ingredients and food stuffs hanging off of her arms. Reaching out, she rang the doorbell and furrowed her brow in slight anxiety. This was not the first time she'd just shown up on someone's doorstep for cooking time, but this was the first time that she was concerned said person wouldn't like her.
She really wanted Alkaid to like her. The blonde with the dreads was so friendly and sweet that Genevieve was terrified of what it would say about her if this girl didn't like her. So fingers crossed, powered up, and a worried half-smile on her face, she waited.

It only took a few moments after the doorbell rang for the door to swing open and reveal a civilian that was clearly Alkaid. Shorter blonde dreads fell around her mid-back and she was wearing a comfortable yellow and white summer dress that fell around her knees, completed with a pair of flats. She just smiled at the powered up girl and held out her arms in a silent gesture to help her with the bulging grocery bags.
"Sorry, my fuku isn't very practical for cooking, not with heels and a cape." She laughed nervously and stepped a little to the side as she waited to be given some of the load, so Chromite could step in at the same time instead of waiting in front of her apartment in her negaverse uniform. "Plus floor length dreads are a bit of a pain and all."
"Just call me Kaia?" Her nervous laughter gave way to another smile, sweet and very Alkaidish.

The door opened and Genevieve's smile became one that was much less nervous as she stepped through the door. Alkaid may have been waiting for load to be offered to her, but it didn't even cross her mind. It just wasn't who she was, and in keeping with that she immediately found the kitchen and set the bags on the counter. Turning about she held her hands up in a shrug and laughed just as nervously. "The gloves are hard for cooking as well, but I wasn't..." she paused and looked sheepish as she stammered for what she wanted to say. "I wasn't sure if you could power down and I didn't want you to feel uncomfortable."
She felt silly saying it, but in reality this was the first time she'd ever seen a non-powered senshi in any capacity that she was aware of. Practicality set in quickly enough as she mentioned her hang-up with coming as a civilian and after waiting for the door to close she powered down. With that out of the way Genevieve stood there in pink jeans, a white Beatles t-shirt from Wal-Mart, and her own pair of blue flats. "It's really nice to meet you Kaia! My name is Genevieve."

Kaia couldn't blame her for not passing off part of the load - it was what she would have done herself, if the situation were reversed. Not that she didn't prickle a little at not being able to help. She just smiled and followed Chromite to the kitchen, making sure she girl found her way there easily enough. It wasn't that hard, apartments were only so big.
"Don't apologize. I know better than anyone how uneducated the soldiers are concerning the Senshi. It's not your fault, it's just.. how things work." She shrugged a little, as if it couldn't be helped, but the smile on her face was still lingering. She had already learned to just accept some facts. "Thank you for being that considerate though."
She stepped into the kitchen after Chromite and leaned her back against the island in the center, waiting as the girl powered down and introduced herself. The double-introduction made her laugh softly, amused as she always was with the need for it, but she dipped her head formally regardless. "Pleasure to meet you too, Genevieve."
She pushed herself off the counter and stepped up to the other girl's side, just long enough to peek into the bags. "Do you want to get started then?"
