Requiem had received word of Super Sailor Leto's attack earlier, but had opted not to visit her during the daylight hours. She had no desire yet to mingle with the newer recruits in her civilian form. There were more important matters regarding the attack than mere socialization and get well wishes. There was revenge to plot. The Senshi who had hurt her needed to pay, and Requiem was eager to participate in their punishment.
Late into the evening, Requiem emerged from a bathroom mirror in Quinn's apartment, a familiar locale to her. She tip-toed into her ally's bedroom, quietly shutting the door behind her. Quinn was asleep, as any reasonable human would be at this hour - especially one who was in bad condition. Perhaps Requiem should have thought of that and tried at another time.
Then again, Requiem didn't quite care.
Then was the better time for her. She flipped on the lights in the bedroom and softly shook Quinn's foot from over the covers.
"Wake up, ho-bag," she teased. She hoped that her foot or ankle wasn't one of the injured parts of her body. She clapped her hands to help provide extra noise to wake her up. "Wakie, wakie."

Quinn drugged herself with a heavy dose of painkillers, fully intended to get like... A billion hours of sleep that night. She'd been exhausted lately, having a rough time sleeping with the combination of pain, Lydia constantly checking on her, and her other teammates visiting. So tonight? Tonight was time for sleep, and lots of it.
You know, until someone crawled through her bathroom mirror and snuck up on her in the middle of the night.
The second her foot was shaken, Quinn shot up into a sitting position. The entire room spun around her and she gripped her sheets tightly while she waited for the sensation of getting up too fast to subside. Finally blinking and letting her eyes focus, she stared at Requiem standing in front of her clapping. What the ******** rubbed her eyes, forgetting entirely of how sore her face was and winced slightly.
"The ******** are you doing, Req?" She groaned and rearranged herself so she was sitting more comfortably. "You do know what time it is right? What if I slept with a knife and freaked out and stabbed you in the face? Or worse- What if I slept naked?" She grinned at the girl, broad and lop-sided.

"Then I'd suppose your tits would be showing," she shrugged and took a seat at the foot of the bed. "That would be really embarrassing for you."
"Sorry to wake you, but I didn't stop by earlier to wish you to get well," she started. That was about the closest she was going to get to wishing her to get well, too. She knew that Quinn would, there was no point in wishing it. As Senshi, they had all endured quite a lot of pain. The way Requiem saw it, if you made it through the attack, then you're better of than those who didn't. "I have some questions for you, if you don't mind."
Of course she wouldn't mind, Requiem thought. Why would she?
"What happened? Who did this to you? Did you get their names?"

Quinn couldn't help but laugh at that. "Good point," she agreed.
"You missed a party. Apparently I missed the part where I invited everyone over, but whatevs." What she really meant by that was that everyone randomly showed up at her apartment all at once, and she got drunk and went to bed. Okay, maybe not so much a party after-all.
She glanced at her nightstand beside her bed, which she knew had her henshin pen in its top drawer. She almost felt a little awkward that she was hanging out in her pajamas while her teammate was henshined, but she didn't particularly wanna power up with a leg brace on in case it didn't transfer over. Also powering up randomly would probably be kinda weird.
She raised an eyebrow at Requiem firing off a bunch of questions all at once.
"I got caught by a White Moon ******** while I was draining some guy. She threw peppers at me. Who the ******** does that?" She made a disgusted face. "Then some other b***h snuck up and they double teamed me. Worst. Threesome. Ever. Also my only, but I'm just sayin', it sucked."

Requiem arched a brow. The Senshi of...Peppers? Requiem had yet to meet such a Senshi, but perhaps she would find out some more with some digging. Or you know, beat up another Senshi until they give her a name. Something along those lines.
"Did they catch you draining him?" she asked. She had done her best to make sure that she was never caught draining energy, but of course that wasn't a realistic standard to be held by forever. Not with so many disillusioned Senshi roaming about. "Did they know what you were doing, or why? Did they destroy your mirror wraith?"
It was only then that she supposed she was asking too many questions to a girl who had only just survived an attack. "Sorry, I don't mean to sound insensitive or anything. I just want to find those responsible."

She nodded. "Peppers did. The other one, Sailor Albireo? She just saw some girl on girl fighting and thought she needed to get involved. I don't think either of them knew why I was doing it or how, really. My wraith is fine, thankfully."
It was pretty obvious that Leto was the less careful of the two of them. She did things a lot more obviously, she got herself into trouble more often than not, and she had a really bad temper. While Ares and likely others in the Dark Mirror Court would prefer to talk to White Moon Senshi and convince them to join their side, Leto always found her fists to be a much more effective method.
Except when it backfired and she got her a** kicked, of course.
"No worries," she said, brushing some hair away from her face. "I think the whole team is on the lookout for them. I told them to call me if they ran into them... They were both Supers and the last thing we need is our newbies getting their asses kicked on my behalf."
She would never forgive herself if something happened to one of them because of her.
"Peppers did the most damage. She busted my knee and my nose. Albireo kicked my butt, like, literally. And kicked my knee a second time, but she did help me to the mirror I came out of after Peppers destroyed my face and ran away."
She wasn't sure if that really meant that she should leave the Swan Senshi alone.

"Hm," Requiem thought aloud. "If she - this Albireo - was persuaded to take you to the mirror, perhaps there is more we can persuade her to do for the Court. You know, join us. Of course, its never quite that easy with the White Moon Senshi, even with the most rational of them. They can only see it their way, just as we used to."
She was so foolish, back then, she thought.
"As for Peppers, well," she paused. "We won't have to be so kind to her. A useful ally she might be, but she might be better to make an example of to the next White Moon Senshi who dares to attack one of us. We'll crush her skull, Leto. Kick it to the curb, stain the pavement with the juices of her brains for the dogs to s**t on."
She was grinning, her hands turning into curled fists with her right eye twitching. She looked absolutely nuts, and she knew it too. "Or you know, we'll just spank her or something."

"That's what I was thinking, about Albireo. I figure if we run into her we should just talk to her and see what we can do. Y'never know. She'd be the more likely of the two, for sure." She figured that she should at least let the girl that helped her live, and give her the opportunity to be enlightened and see the truth in what she was doing.
She shook her head at Requiem, grinning and laughing at her. God damn did she ever look crazy. "I'm all for payback... But skull crushing, really Req?" She laughed again. "You're ******** nuts. And where are we randomly gonna find dogs to s**t on her brains anyway?" She stuck her tongue out at her.
"While I'm all for a good spanking, I think her and I have gotten way past that point in our relationship."

"Well, then I'm sure there is some middle-ground between skull crushing and spanking that we can be agreed upon," she teased. Perhaps a broken limb or spine would suffice. She rose from the foot of the bed and straightened out her skirt, then turned to straight out any a**-print she may have left behind.
"I'll leave to your rest, then," she said. "You've just survived an attack. There's no reason for you to be up at this hour."
She winked - an awkward, ugly wink - and gave a nod farewell. "We'll keep in touch in any developments on tracking down these Senshi. They'll pay for what they did to you, Quinn."
She turned off the lights to the bedroom and began her exit out, headed towards the bathroom mirror.

Quinn nodded in agreement and laughed. "Yeah, I dunno why on Earth I'm awake so late." She shook her head when Requiem winked at her.
She waved lazily, "Call me if you need me, or uh... You know, just climb through my mirror any time." She grinned and slid back down into her sheets so she was laying down again.
"Thanks Req, g'night."
She turned over onto her side as awkwardly as humanly possible with her huge leg brace on and closed her eyes, quickly finding herself drifting right back to sleep.
