Welcome to Gaia! ::

Perhaps the park at twilight was a poor idea as a place to spend time with a friend, but originally it had been much earlier in the afternoon and as he often found happening, Ali had completely lost track of time spent with Lance.

That was how the past year had been, really, since they'd met the previous September. Pulling Lance out of his shell had been slow, careful work (with far too much making him blush) but it had been absolutely worth it.

"Hm. I keep hearing rumors of awful things in the park at night. We should...perhaps pack up?"

It had been a few weeks since Leto's... Change. And she still had yet to tell a single person besides Veer about it. Instead of going to her past, she decided that maybe, just maybe she could move forward and create new Senshi to their cause. So she spilled her secret to the Guardian Cat that was residing in her apartment, and asked her to go for a stroll with her.

After powering up to her Eternal form in her apartment, she scooped the cat up into her arms and slipped through her mirror, stepping out into the brisk cool fall air in the park. Carefully putting Abby down, she ran her fingers over the familiar fabric of her fuku's skirt, taking a deep breath.

"Alright Abby... Time to find me an unawakened Senshi. Time to give me some purpose again." She laughed, "How ironic would it be if I had been awakened in the park and now it's coming full circle?"

It hadn't been in the park, however. After being chased down by a youma through the streets of downtown DC, ********* had awakened her into a White Moon Senshi. Now here she was, out on an attempt to steal every last Senshi to the side of Chaos.

"I like this park too. It's where I usually patrol..." She followed after the cat, who seemed to know exactly where she was going. "I was almost killed here once," Leto added with a laugh.

What would Albireo and Pomona have done if it had been Princess Leto they had encountered instead of Eternal? They would've been the ones left in a crippled state instead. She shook her head to rid herself of those thoughts and continued through the park following closely behind Absinthe.

"You know, I have no idea what I'm doing. Do you think it'll just come naturally?"

Leto laughed, "Inconvenient indeed! And I hope so." She stopped in her tracks when Abby lead her to two boys on the swings. She watched them for a brief moment, then crouched down to whisper to the cat at her side.

"One of them?" She pointed at the blonde and brunette that stood up off of the swings, hand in hand. She would have to somehow lure them apart if that was the case... That would prove to be interesting.

She didn't even notice that she was chewing the inside of her cheek, her fingers crumpling her skirt ruffles nervously. Could she really do this?

Both.

That made Leto's eyes light up as if Absinthe just told her the most amazing news in the history of ever. Her lips split into a huge grin and she scooped Absinthe up into her arms to squeeze her in a hug.

"You are gonna get so much pizza later you won't even know what to do with it all!"

And with that, Leto's nerves disappeared and she was ready to lay on the charm... And well, if all else fails she would just throw the two of them into a mirror and do things her way instead of on their terms. She stood to her feet, rolled her shoulders back and made her way over to the swings.

"Evening boys," she offered the two of them a smile while scratching Abby behind the ears. "Enjoying your night?"




[Time to get you two back in XDDD~]

Lance blinked, glancing from Ali to the unfamiliar girl. "Uh... Hello." Lance grabbed Alistair's arm. If anything went down, Lance had to make sure Ali was out of the way. This girl was definitely strange. She had strange little wings... and looked like she had been living in a jungle. ...Or atleast would be at home in one, with all that camouflage she was wearing. He had to bite back a quiet snort. Of course Ali would have idle conversation with someone he didn't know. Typical Ali.

"I don't exactly trust that you can't, miss," Alistair said. He wasn't exactly staring, but he had noticed that small size aside, she did not in any way look weak or helpless.

His eyes narrowed a little. "What exactly are you implying?" The emphasis on "out of this world" was particularly interesting. He remembered the strange people at the convention, some of whom had looked...well, rather like Leto, just in white instead of black.

Leto raised an eyebrow at the blonde's knowledge of the Senshi, Negaverse and talking cats. She reached up to touch Absinthe protectively, her eyes narrowing slightly. Was he really just a civilian? Abby wouldn't have given her false information... He had clearly been talking to some people who had given him too much information for their own good- but maybe Leto could use that to her advantage.

"She does," she replied simply. "And she has told me that it's your lucky night, because it's not that often that you get to receive an offer like this. An offer to be more, to do more." Her right hand moved up and down to motion at herself. "To be like me. Sans miniskirt, of course."

She winked.
