It was 70% of the time ill-advised to toy with things greater than one's self. The hierarchy of power in this war was well established within ranks of the Negaverse, the senshi and the knighthood- weenies and workers for the earliest phases and then a bunch of scary ******** at the apex. She'd tangled were her share for funsies, and it always ended up bloody.
Bloody brilliant.
Some, no doubt, took up self defense as an afterthought. Some had trial-by-fire learned a little of what they should actually be doing after years of doing it, like the Tiger, and then there were those sad couple that didn't do either and ended up getting torn apart. She could feel the aura of an eternal just at the edges of her captain's awareness- it meant the eternal could probably feel her quite clearly. Schörl picked up her pace, wondering if she'd found the Tiger, or Panty, or any of the few other eternals she'd played with. Tiger was by far the most impressive in battle so far.
It was like a birthday present- what sort of fun was she going to get to unbox? She paused on a roof, entering the 'field' of the aura but without accuracy enough to pinpoint exact epicenter. Without sight confirmation yet, she crooned low "Come out, Come out, wherever you are-"

Kallichore hated to be baited.
As much as she was bloodthirsty before, the eternal wanted to at least attempt to reason with Chaos before she tried crushing it. Self-defense would always be an option. Testing out her new approach was difficult - met with uncertainly and awkwardness, especially since she didn't possess many social graces. But there was an aura, Captain, lurking somewhere nearby.
And that aura was calling her.
Just find out if they're out for a stroll or around to make trouble. she told herself and Kallichore launched to the rooftops, sailing through the air as quietly as her ridiculous fuku would allow. She knew that if she could feel the Captain, the Captain could feel her. Closing the gap just drew the inevitable and Kallichore wasn't one to wait around and see what happened. Stopping atop a lightpost, the eternal crouched down and looked about for the owner of the Chaos signature.
"And what brings you to this side of town, Captain...?" she called, brown eyes facing the general direction of the agent but could not see them just yet.

Oh ho ho...do I want it, Precious? Schörl tapped her finger against her bottom lip, then bit it until the fingertip throbbed with each beat of her heart, looking carefully over the lip-ledge to the senshi-source of voice.
Short skirts of that sort deserved more admiration from a better vantage. The captain shifted and hopped down to the alley ground level before walking out into view hands out to her sides and palms out, "Taking in the sights, Eternal."
She walked to circle-halo of the street light and looked pleasantly up. Taking them all in.
"What brings you out to play?"

Something didn't seem right.
This Captain was too nonchalant about being one power level below her adversary. She seemed too calm. Perhaps she was more powerful than she let on? Kallichore's hairs on the back of her neck stood on end and she frowned, leaping down from the light post to street level. Walking slowly into the light, the eternal kept her eyes on the Captain.
Kallichore gave her Chaos counterpart a once-over before replying. "Keeping an eye on you, Captain." Hand on one hip, the eternal stopped her advance at the edge of the light, watching, waiting. "I hope you don't intend to cause any harm while you're out on your stroll. If you want to cause trouble, then I'd rather you direct that at me. Please leave the innocent out of this."

Schörl's mouth split-smile slowly, like the progression of a Glasgow. She left her arms outsplayed and turned slowly in a 360, "And do your eyes approve what they watch?"
"I aim to please, where I can, luv. Trouble or harm...well...I got over that whole virgin-obsessed business a long while back. The three-minutes happiness gets old after a few times, right? So I'm happy to keep it to you, if you're game. " Innocent had many meanings, and toying with it for banter was a good test of seeing how much challenge this one posed- prowess and strategy, or just one or the other. "The uniform... I have to say, has some nice advertisement."

Her instinct was dead-on: something definitely wasn't right here. "My eyes will only approve when there's no death I have to see, Captain."
That smile was something others would expect her to do, given her sphere. Ganymede probably thought of her as a female Joker at times, calling her a bloodthirsty psychopath. But this woman? She fit the bill perfectly. Kallichore was taken aback at the virgin comments and was confused for a moment before she realized what the Captain was talking about. Blushing furiously, the eternal crossed her arms to cover her torso in the long sleeves her fuku afforded her.
"The advertisement isn't for you, Captain." Kallichore was pissed and embarrassed simultaneously and this encounter was veering into territory she wasn't familiar with. "The only happiness I'm game for is the kind I can give to you, if you're game." The eternal told herself that she tried, so anything after this, she couldn't be blamed for.

"Dare I say I see roses bud and bloom?" Schörl made the motion of the phoneme 'ahhhh' without any actual voicing, emphasized as though in pantomime for a silent movie. This one flusters well on that sort of banter.I do believe I dare.
" I do like a girl that knows what she wants. Happiness you can give me? Is that an offer? I don't mind playing top-bottom."
"We can, you know. Right here. We don't have to power down. I can just...pull your uniform to the side, you could open mine. Your identity is safe, mine is safe. We 'battle'. I smoke pipes- I promise I'm good with my mouth." The captain stepped forward slowly, but deliberately, seeing if she'd be allowed to close the distance.

And Ganymede called her creepy. Had the Senshi of Lust ever met this Captain? Kallichore would have to tell her fellow Jovian all about this.
The flattery, unwarranted as it was, kept the blush stain across her cheeks in full bloom. The eternal senshi was a different kind of terrified now, but had a plan - the closer the Captain was to her, the less likely her pleasurable attack would be dodged. Kallichore didn't make any moves to deter Schorl from approaching, wondering which would be preferable - the super or the most powerful version of her powers? It'd be interesting to see. "Yes, happiness only I can give..."
She looked suddenly left and right, nervous. What did this look like to others?

Only you? That sounded less like innuendo and more like a drug deal gone weird. Considering there didn't look to be a whole lot of room on that fuku to hide a taser without it being visible, they didn't carry magical weapons, it left the senshi magic.
This better not be another herpes-burning that warms the cockles.
With the girl looking left and right nervously, the captain took the opportunity to push her hand through the sleeves of the crossed arms and flat the palm of her hand skin-to-skin at the window to the eternal's stomach. "This is where the tongue starts?"
It was a delightfully dangerous game, being so close without her weapon to hand. This was an eternal. At this distance, the girl would be too close to read to effectively dodge her greater strength and speed. They could both be playing each other, and equally amusing joke.

Keep calm, keep calm, keep calm, I'm stronger than she is... circled the mantra in her head. Kallichore did everything she could to remain straight-faced while the Captain approached. This was completely unlike anything she'd ever had to encounter and thus had no prior experience to fall back on. Her demeanor usually drove people away, she didn't invite them to her.
Her breath hitched in her throat when a warm hand pressed against her exposed belly and Kallichore bit her tongue to keep from squealing at the sudden intimate contact. But if she wanted the plan to work, the Captain would need to get just a bit closer. Leaning up, for the blonde was taller than she, Kallichore whispered in her ear, cupping one cheek with her gloved hand.
"I hope this is an enjoyable for you as it will be for me."
The air about Schorl's eyes would distort slightly, and the magic would begin. "Surge of the Maddened!"
The target begins to hear voices and see people, objects or animals that aren't there. The amount of voices or visual hallucinations varies from person to person. The visual hallucination is supposed to be "real" for the target. This means that objects (rocks, other people, animals) can be interacted with and can interact with the target. The effect lasts roughly 30 seconds and winds down, though some residual effects could be experienced to a much lesser degree (like hearing whispers after the 30 seconds is up).

The captain blinked, noting the distortion sudden and the words that were unmistakable to senshi magic - saying something completely random that may or may not be ominous and that meant being f***ed six ways sideways in no appreciable manner.
Schörl's pupils dilated, hazel gone nearly to black disks. Turning to look at the Eternal's face that was so close to her own, and her ear- Senshi girl had no face. Her body was there. She was moving around. There were no gruesome innards or anything slopping out. It was exactly as if in the moment of the shimmer some hand of god had come down and plucked off her face like the magnetic faceplate of a doll. It was just hollow in there.
Schörl palmed the girls face that wasn't a face and it HONESTLY FELT LIKE NOTHING WAS THERE. She could see her hand going in the hollow of the skull and there was a ridge of the the missing face edge at her wrist. "That spell is goddamn amazing. Is this going to last? "
It was ten times as good as just catching herself with one or her own special cigs. If I lick her like a toad, will it get better? Nah, nah not right now.
She left the eternal go, moving past her to crouch over what looked like the world's smallest calliope and a dancing pill bug circus. The music was damn awesome, if a little in the creepy vein. She could hear the little bugs chanting, MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.MrKite.
" Why don't you sell this?"
She had no idea if the senshi was still right there, but it made the most sense that she would be. Hell, the eternal might be about to break her neck after making her trip balls. The best policy was probably to just not let anything approach her at the moment, be it cosmic muffin or algebraic equation explaining amsterdam. Bischofite HAS to meet you.

The last thing she expected was to be near smothered by the Captain once the magic took effect. Part of her questioned why she didn't just up the ante in the beginning and bring out the big guns, but seeing Schorl react in such an unusual manner made her wonder if this was the better decision.
Kallichore took a few steps back to observe, watching as the Captain slumped over nothing-in-particular on the ground and proclaim that her magic was 'amazing'. No one had ever said such a thing and the eternal pondered for a moment if Schorl was off her rocker to begin with, thus making her attack more... pleasant? It was certainly something to research at a later date. In the meantime...
While she wasn't sure if the Captain was in any state to converse, Kallichore hazarded answering anyway. "Sell it? What do you think it would be worth, Captain?" The eternal kept her distance, walking in an arc in front of Schorl, watching. Thirteen... twelve... eleven... After thirty seconds, the "high" would start to dissipate and Kallichore wondered whether the Captain would be disappointed the Looney Toons didn't last longer.
Schörl looked up, hearing words huge as thunder in the sky, but hissed in echoes from a sudden audience. There was a whole ring of them- sailor bodies without faces and hollow skulls, different unknown characters written in slowly distorting ink stain down the front of their bodices. She stood, backing a few feet from the pill bug circus- they were starting to eat each other.
Growing slowly larger and larger and more like lamprey-mouthed beasts that had no real business walking city streets. "I don't speak eldritch yet."
But its pretty damn wicked. I need to take up painting again. Is she one of these? Maybe she's the calliope. Schörl outstretched a hand, summoned her knout to it. That's not right. That's a hot dog. How am I supposed to protect myself with wiener?

Five... four... three...
The magic should start to wear off very soon and Kallichore knew that, backing up a few steps once the Captain summoned her weapon. Readying her hands for another possible attack, Kallichore concentrated on Schorl's every move. While the eternal was technically a rank higher than the blonde, senshi could not teleport. Not while they were whole, anyway. "You'll want to put that down, Captain. I think you've had enough for one night. You should turn around and head home now..."
And sleep, perchance to dream of whatever you saw tonight. Watching, waiting... The countdown expired and Schorl's unpleasantness should have left her alone now, shambling back to the dark corners of her mind from whence they came.
The bodies all jerked like strings had been pulled, then fell down the the ground into puddles that sucked up into the asphalt like it was desert sand. And she was holding her knout after all. She could still hear the music faintly, but all the trappings were disappointing gone. Schörl sighed wistfully. "It would be too good to be lasting. Why can't you lot find a way to have magic that's worth more than a two-bit show? "
She looked around, spying the eternal after a brief search back and forth of the immediate horizon, a smile coming back. Not that right then and there was the plan, but it was best to go to the horses mouth, ".....you could do that again, if you had a mind, couldn't you? "
What FUN they could have with that. Though there was always a limit to the immediate reserves of the senshi casters. More than a handful would probably need stuffing an energy ball down her for more. "What's your name, Eternal? I like you."
