The penny hit the water with a plunk, and he watched the ripples spread before he flicked another after it. Dust spread outward from them, that hadn't blown away from the youma he'd dusted across the park, where he'd found the coins afterward, and paused here to unwind for a bit. Youma were remarkably little challenge one on one, not like the larger, more dangerous ones he knew were waiting in the Rift. Creatures that could tear the city apart in a night if they were all unleashed, but a few sent out just to seek out civilians? Nothing. Even Redline might have been more challenge. But then again, maybe not, since he'd been somewhat familiar with the ins and outs of his personal youma before he changed sides.
There was another power signature moving around, again, not a Negaverse agent, but for as many as he knew there were, he hadn't run into them with the frequency he would have expected. Disappointing, but then, he supposed he needed contacts too.
He had no problem with the name Kairatos getting around.

From a distance, Gunn felt sure she was looking at a Negaverser. No matter how loudly the energy signature (and she was trying very hard to get better at reading those for exactly this purpose) said Order, said Knight or something like it, she saw a guy in dark red and she felt certain she was going to have to kick some a** before the night was through. Still, she thought, an integral part of skills training was knowing that you had to see first, understand first, and act only once you knew for sure what was going on.
She dropped from the rooftop and crossed the Circle. "Hey," she called out across the asphalt; "Order or Chaos? Because if you're Chaos, I'm sorry, but this is a no-a*****e zone."

"Order. Figured that was obvious." Kairatos called back, raising an eyebrow as he turned to glance in her direction. "Is my power signature wonky or something?" They were something on level, power wise, as far as he could tell. Arguably senshi might be arguably more powerful, but then, he didn't figure himself as an ordinary knight. "Though I'd point out that while it does damn well try, Chaos doesn't technically have the market cornered on assholes yet, but I can tell you from experience, they seriously tried." "Kairatos of Mars. You are?"

Gunn shrugged. At least she wasn't going to have to kill someone. Wait, that was a bad thing, wasn't it? "I left before you guys started waking up from your long naps. I've met exactly one Knight before you, Kairatos of Mars." And did Megiddo really count? She didn't actually know anything about what she was about--seemed to mostly figure things out by tripping into them, actually. "Eternal Sailor Gunn, senshi of Wildfire," she said, sticking out a hand for him to shake. "Nice to meet you. What's up with your outfit, though, it looks like you escaped from a toga party."

"As far as I can tell, it's a Mars thing. And I kinda thought it was a hair more Gladiator meets 500, personally. No one's knocking off my Armor with an old bed-sheet, Red." The curious hood on her outfit made him think she needed a picnic basket, though her sphere said otherwise. He didn't know what the component parts were actually called but he was pretty sure it wasn't 'toga'. Maybe there was something to be said for some boring time at the museum? He took her hand and gave it a firm shake, still trying to size her up. "Apparently some of us have been awake longer than people realize... in a sense... since we're apparently the flip side to the Negaverse." He didn't say not senshi but the idea sort of hung there anyway. It was a flip to the way things used to be, he knew, the way things had been understood, but he liked knowing it.
