Patrolling somehow took a lot out of her, even if she didn't always fight. Maybe it was the anticipation of fighting that made her so tired. Her stomach would always knot and she would remember how badly one of her first battles left her feeling the following day. Machholz wasn't looking forward to it. Still, she was hoping to run into another senshi. Ida had said there were plenty her level, but she still hadn't run into one.
Biting down on a black painted lip, Machholz walked along the roof top of one of the houses in the residential area she was wandering around. Activity, for her, at least, had been low. Just a few battles here and there, none of them leaving her with serious injuries.
"Man," she whispered to herself, hands behind her back as she stretched out to her full, short, height. "I just want to meet someone my level."

Amytis was out wandering, mostly. She was wary to approach any sort of energy signature, after her encounters with Vanadinite and Cyllene - if even other Chaos people, who alliance or not sohuld really be on her side, were willing to attack her, what would someone Order-aligned do?
Still, she noticed the feel of an aura the same level as hers, and sighed. Things were boring if she avoided people, she supposed, so she altered her path to go find this White Moon Senshi. Maybe she'd see what was what and get to know someone on the other side. The Court's goal was conversion, after all, right?

When she felt an energy her own level, Machholz blinked and stopped mid-step and turned towards the direction it was coming from. Tilting her head to one side, she hummed and took off towards it, jumping from roof top to roof top with ease, landing with only the slightest of noises of heels on tile, and a ruffle of her skirt. Her hair was getting long, starting to billow out behind her as she moved. It was only by some chance of fate that her earrings didn't tangle. Now, however, she was close enough to the source of energy and she crouched at the very edge of a building, peering over, down, trying to pin point where it was coming from. "Hello?" She whispered, not knowing if it was Order or Chaos aligned.

Amytis reached up to run her fingers through her bangs. Of course this girl was worried. "Come out, I'm not going to hurt you," she encouraged. Well, probably not. Certainly if things went south she'd defend herself, but otherwise she saw no reason to throw punches or magic unless it came down to a dangerous situation.
"I just want to talk," she promised. "I'm Sailor Amytis, of the Dark Mirror Court. You are...?"

Dark Mirror? That put her on alert even more. She squinted down at the other and eventually realized she wasn't going to be attacking yet. Sighing slowly, Machholz jumped down onto the ground and straightened herself back up. There was tension in her as she looked the other over, but, she did leave her hands at her sides.
"....Why do you want to talk? I heard you're corrupt." Ida mentioned something about them being dark senshi, more aligned with Nega, from what she gathered.

Amytis couldn't miss the girl's defensive stance. Her eyes narrowed, and she shifted to one of her own. "We're touched by Chaos, but I'm no weirdo Nega senshi, alright?" She said. Her heart was staritng to pick up the pace.
"But look, if you want to do this the punchy way, let's do this the punchy way."

"....I don't want to have to fight you unless I have to," she murmured, sighing a bit. She didn't drop her stance. Not yet. There was no guarantee the other wouldn't attack her first. Maybe she could get some information out of this one.
"So you're... a dark senshi? Why not join my side? Why are you dark?" Machholz pushed her bangs from her face, street light glinting on her tiara. "Try anything funny and I won't hesitate to attack you."

"Define 'dark,'" Amytis said, relaxing a little. She brushed off her skirt, smoothing it and then rolling her shoulders a little. "I mean, if you're going the whole dark-is-evil route, the Senshi of Devotion is one of ours and he's the sweetest guy I've ever met - he and his boyfriend are like brothers to me."
She smiled a little. "I wouldn't join your side even if I could. Why would I give up my family?"

"What do you mean....?" Machholz blinked a little, fingers going to tap her lips as a frown pulled on it. The Senshi of Devotion was dark? She couldn't believe that. She stroked her lip a little and then frowned. "..Please... I won't attack you.. Can you explain what you mean? I... don't know very much about your side of things. I just know I woke to White Moon and I'm supposed to fight people with energy like yours." Her tone was honest, even if it was a bit meek.

"What do I mean?" Amytis practically lit up from the inside. She loved her Court so much, and it practically bubbled out of her. "Well, I mean that I guess something like that happened to me - but Remarque and Leto - they're our leaders - they didn't just send me out on my own to fight. They made sure I was okay, and when I was in trouble, two of my Court members came to help me and keep me safe, and any other time I need it I can just put in a call and someone will come. The Court is really close-knit, and we take care of each other, and it's great."

That.... That was the complete opposite of what happened to her. Machholz's brows knit hard as she listened and sighed. Wow, okay, so their court was more organized, definitely, than hers. That wasn't fair, was it? The light side, the good side, was supposed to be powerful and organized. But she was sent out into the world with little information after she was awoken.
Machholz started relaxing a bit as he thought. "...I see.. Ah.. You mean you're not just shoved off by some cat? That's what happened to me. I got into a couple of fights before I met anyone from my side.. Then I got some questions answered..." She hummed a little more and bit down on her lip. Was she seriously giving this thought?

"Nope, definitely not just tossed onto the street by some cat," Amytis acknowledged, and she laughed. "I mean, I think it helps that a member of the Court has to help Awaken us. So we get to know one of the leaders right off the bat."
She frowned at Machholz's description. "I'm sorry you had to go through that. I don't know what I would've done without Remarque's help to get on my feet."

"Honey, let me tell you, fighting a Nega officer and then a corrupted senshi without knowing what they are? Not easy. No one explained my magic to me until after the fact." She felt like she was betraying her court, but... no one ever said she couldn't talk to them, now did they? She looked the girl over and bit down on her lip again, fidgeting with her skirt. Someone to lean on would be nice.
"So.. Tell me more? I mean.. do you have cats awakening you, too? I met a cat once, that said she couldn't awaken people.."

Amytis wrinkled her nose. "Even knowing what they are, fighting them isn't easy," she acknowledged. "We're uh, not always buddies with the Negaverse."
She exhaled. "It's kinda complicated. I was Awakened without a cat there, but one had to tell me my name, so kinda yes and no?"

"Wait. One had... Huh." Her head canted to the side and she blinked curiously at the other now. Interesting. Machholz moved closer, hands behind her back, moving almost carelessly now. "So you're not part of the Nega, but you ...are on the same side, but not friends? Or... Something like that? That sounds overly complicated. So what's the difference, really? Are the Nega officers like our Knights and pages?"
