Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tantalus was loathe to admit it, but ever since his meeting with his doppelganger, he was terrified to patrol alone. He made the excuse of wanting company, rather than admit to his fear, in order to get Damocles to come with him - but fear was the reason nonetheless. He continually tugged at and adjusted his scarf, in an effort to get it to sit in a way that covered his bruises but didn't agitate them.

The feeling of an Order aura had him freezing and backing towards Damocles, grabbing the taller man's sleeve. Yes, he was even nervous around their White Moon enemies - for all he knew, some of them were just as ruthless as the shades. His eyes fell on what he suspected was the owner of the aura, a girl sitting on the swings, and he found himself looking to Damocles for direction.

"Should we...?" He gestured, his voice soft in an effort to not attract her attention.

Having been too lost in thought Acrucis hadn't registered the pair of chaos auras till they were for all intensive purposes too close for comfort. Instinct took over as she dug her white toed boots into the sawdust effectively halting her forward momentum nearly sending her sliding off the rubber seat.

Not good... she thought. Realizing that was too late to run away, Acrucis remained still as the two individuals approached her. Even though it was dark out, the soft light from the waning moon and scattered street lamps provided her with enough visibility to get a decent look at their uniforms. Something about them seemed... not right yet she couldn't put her finger on it till they got close enough for her to notice their tiaras.

Senshi? Acrucis wondered with a slight tilt of her head. Now that just didn't make much sense... Here she had been anticipating the aura's to belong to two Negaverse agents like Benitoite however upon closer inspection their uniforms were much more reminiscent of the order Senshi fuku's she had seen recently.

Realizing this could either go really really good or really really bad, Acrucis fidgited with the swing chains, "H-hello?" she spoke up finally breaking the silence.

"You're fine." The blonde said once again, quieter this time as he gently pulled his arm free only to rest his hand on the brunette's shoulder. A silent reassurance that Tantalus was not on his own and that Damocles had his back, as per the usual routine. "Hello." He added, looking from Tantalus to the girl.

A simple question that required a simple answer - Tantalus lightened a bit. "Yes, we are, but not like you. I'm Sailor Tantalus, and this is Sailor Damocles, of the Dark Mirror." He bowed, finally disentangling himself from his boyfriend to take a few steps closer to the girl and extend a hand in greeting.

She was friendly, curious, and probably about as nervous as he was, so he was inclined to be nicer to her and hopefully soothe her ill feelings. Perhaps that would be good for everyone involved.
