 It was likely a strange sight to those more accustom to the negaspace. White on it's own was a strange color to find here, amid a place so full of dark and deep colors and hues. But a white cat? She very likely startled the first few sets of eyes she'd meandered passed, set off alarm bells in their heads at the fear that some senshi cat had somehow infiltrated their sacred place. She'd even received a few gruff 'Hey!'s before the mistake was corrected with a simple turn of the head. Any fear was quickly enough waved away by the glaringly black star that rested between a set of annoyed and dualy colored eyes. The familiar soft aura of chaotic energy was also there if someone continued to question the cat.
Having been only newly corrupted she had taken the advice to remain within the safety of the negaspace, but days of meandering around were proving to become dull. She wanted a true bath... and perhaps less dreary scenery. But there was something she'd been missing since she'd first arrived, something far more important Dahlia was craving to the very depths of her soul. An ivory tail swished back and forth as she slipped through the doorway of one room to another, a soft and almost pathetic sounding 'mew' escaping her throat.
She wanted attention. And now. A princess could only remain locked away in her tower for so long before she went absolutely crazy.

His attention snapped around like a whip, pale blue eyes focused on dual tone, one gold and one blue. The cream of her coat stood out starkly in these dim spaces, but she would not be here ... unless. And even if she were not theirs, she would be before she was ever allowed to leave...such was the way of the Dark Kingdom, so for one...Zink did not raise voice of alarm to see the rather delicate feline swishing her way towards him.
"You're new..." He said in civil yet distant tone. He had made it no great secret in the past that he was wary if not just irritated with guardian cats as a whole...most especially -that- Siamese who had left her marks quite clearly on his leg and hand.
He shoved a thumb tack through a scrap of paper, carefully adjusting it to hang strait on the board before tracking his finger from it to several other pieces as though he were checking some logical continuity that must have been clearer to him before lifting a bit of string, colored yellow and wrapping it around the tack.
"General Zinkenite... and you are?" He said after a moments' pause to be utterly sure she felt of chaos rather than that bright 'moonlight' feeling the senshi possessed.

"New AND neglected" She insisted with what sounded like a pout. Could cats pout? Her tall ears had dipped back at the very least along with those patheticly wide eyes. Perhaps he'd take pity on her. Someone needed to, before she began to rethink this whole thing. Sure she had been enlightened by general queen... brought away from those misguided white moon senshi. But atleast those fools had doted on her.
She took in his features mildly as he introduced himself, filing away the name and rank in her head, the first of likely many to come.
"Dahlia..." She purred, drawing out the later vowels before they mingled into the soft feline rattle. Tiny feet drew her nearer, tail held high above her back as she braced the distance. She didn't care if he didn't like other cats.. Or really if he was busy doing.. whatever he was doing with his little board. Later she'd likely find the labor interesting and commit as much as she could remember to memory. But for now he had more important things to attend to in her opinion. "Everyone is sooo work oriented. Isn't there anyone around interested in a bit of relaxation or play?"

"When not on duty sometimes...you might find quite a lot of people have a great deal more time when their not on duty.." He pinned up the last of his sheets and looked down at her again.
"What are you wanting to do then?" He arched an eyebrow, tilting his head to one side and studying her...tip to tail. Easier perhaps for him than for Dahlia since she wore no mask.
"...you know I am not fond of felines..." He informed her on no uncertain terms. "Are you... going to scratch me if I don't attend to whatever need you have at this current time?" He frowned slightly suspicious.

"I suppose being dutiful is a good quality..." She relented finally as she neared his feet, fairly intent on rubbing against his legs so he could get the picture.
"Oh I don't care really.. just something fun.. to pass the time perhaps."
She had paused however as she noticed him 'admiring' her, going so far as to puff out her chest and flick her fluffy tail daintily. Her feet were planted primly, her maw rested in that characteristic smile shape that kitty mouths made. She was quite the lovely sight if you asked her.
Except he wasn't admiring her.
One ear dipped in soft confusion and annoyance as his words sounded, hopping up on the closest thing that happened to be nearby, a small crysatilline structure that brought her a little closer to his waist height.
"You do not like me?" She sounded offended. Very offended in fact. But the tone melted into something softer when she spoke again, carefully placing her feet to not slide off of her new perch. "Do I look like some mongrel stray to you? Like a rabid rat?"
"I assure you I am as well mannered as I am lovely" Well... perhaps that was a bit of a lie. But she could play well mannered. If General Zinkenite wasn't careful however he might indeed catch himself a few more claws.
Now then.. she tested him. "And I am lovely, aren't I?"

"You are... you have lovely long fur, you look like a pedigree. You're have a fine black star..." He reached carefully and brushed his fingers lightly though the silky fur before drawing his hand back.
"...But, you're pointy on five of six ends...you can blast beams of energy out of your forehead, and the last cat I tangled with was on the side of those skirted fiends... I'm not fond of them by matter of consequence. Let's say they... left their mark"
"... Dahlia..." He said carefully sounding the name. "Tell me about yourself Dahlia..."

That was better.. Another purr rattled softly in her throat as she listened to the small list of compliments. Her body arched towards his touch, trying hard to keep him from leaving it. All too quickly though he did and she was left standing on tippy toes, her tail swishing in soft frusteration.
Tease!
He had good enough reasons though, and he supposed he was fairly smart when it all came down to it. She WAS dangerous. It was something that she'd likely have to fight others to prove in the future. But he had seen it.
Nonetheless she felt it necessary to defend her 'good name'. "I suppose I can see your point, but you will often miss out on wonderful things if you're too cautious. And too closeminded."
"Obviously I am not on the side of those skirted fiends anymore. So shouldn't I get my own special labeling. I am one of a kind after all."
Settling herself until she was almost seated, the best that she could manage on top of her crystal, she watched him carefully as he spoke her name. "About me? What would you like to know?"
"I like shrimp and a nice cool fountain to bathe in. A fluffy pillow." There was a distant smirk on her lovely little face. She was teasing him, fairly certain that that wasn't the sort of information he was searching for.
Maybe her lips would loosen a bit more if he loosened up a bit more himself.

"Fountain... to bathe in." He blinked "I thought cats loathed water." He said arching an eyebrow. "Well, I suppose we can toss you into the park fountain, that should be cool enough." He counter teased.
"You'll find there is a distinct shortage of shrimp here as well" he said amused. "I'm quite sure you know what I was meaning though...."

"I told you I was one of a kind...." She replied in a soft sing song to the look and tone of surprise, her head cocking a little in amusement. There were some breeds that didn't mind water, and some individual cats who seemed to adore it. It seemed the creamy white feline was one of those few. In fact she adored just lounging in a nice clean pool of water.
"Do you know how tiring it can get trying to lick yourself clean? Especially with this much hair.. not to mention how... ick.. savage and.. feral it looks..." She was chattering on and on, motioning softly with a paw as she spoke.
Her ears dipped once more as he teased her in return, standing up again in protest. "TOSS!?"
She knew he was teasing of course. But if he could play the big mean bully she could play offended. And it was fairly obvious she was pretending, her actions fairly over the top. Her tail for the first time was laying low, her ears leaned back. "Are you certain you didn't deserve those claws before General? Even the sweetest animal when mistreated will often lash out."
Sulk, sulk. If it was possible for pouting to be seen a cat's face he would have seen it. "I guess that just means someone will have to bring me shrimp then." Was that a hint? Of course it was. He'd need to be nice and earn it if he wanted something out of her. She seemed to wait for him to make amends in somehow, her back was there just waiting.
"How many senshi are there on our side?" Maybe THEY would treat her better, sulk.

"Well...Princess." he said and gave a small bow offering a shoulder of all things. "Let us go feed you before you and your LUSTROUS coat fade away to nothing.... and on the way I will tell you of the Senshi who are wise enough to be with us...in fact we have a few cats as well... I suppose you haven't met them yet.
He had to admit that she was... amusing if nothing else.

The very soft sound of pleased laughter escaped her, and she hopped up onto his shoulder the moment it was offered, testing her balance cautiously. She was a small and light cat which made the task a little easier, but she was still weary about trying to avoid using her claws. She'd made progress and didn't really intend on taking backward steps if she could help it. As it turned out her tail was doing a fairly good job of stabilzing her.
A purr rattled through her whole body as she brushed her cheek up against his own, though unfortunately she got mostly mask. "No, no cats. Other than the General Queen you are my first." She mused softly near his ear, an innocent enough statement from a cat, though it might have caused him a moment's pause at the strangeness.
"I'm all ears. Unfortunately things from before are a little cloudy.." Names of senshi.. identities.. somehow they'd seemed to fade even though other important information remained. "But I hope I can be of some help here. I'm eager to learn and help."
