So far, Alex had been completely unlucky in his nightly search for any of the strange-clothed individuals who populated Destiny City. How he could have gone nearly two weeks without finding even one, he didn't know, but luck was not on his side. Maybe tonight he would have better luck.
He wandered the dark alleys and small places of Destiny City, and he sought them out - anyone dressed strangely, in odd colors, who looked like those "terrorists" he'd seen in Tag Swagger's documentary. He needed his goddamn answers, and he needed them now.

Damocles wondered if he was a glutton for punishment, because once again he had managed to get his way out of the house to make a quick patrol. And once again he was skulking about the darker alley ways and areas of down. This time though, he wasn't planning on stopping for any signatures. Just a quick loop and then back home.
...That was however till he saw a flash of blue in his peripherals. ...A familiar gradient of blue. ...Oh god damn it. It couldn't be... Sighing Damocles took off after it and sure enough. It was exactly who he thought it was. "You know... What ever it is you're looking for.. There are a lot of safer ways, and places to get it then this.."

The spund of a voice was enough to make Alex turn and pay attention, and he couldn't stop the grin that appeared on his face, though he did shift it to a flirtatious smile. Jackpot. An outfit like that had to be one of the Senshi people.
"Well aren't you handsome - and concerned about me, too, that's sweet," he kicked the charm up to approximately eleven, because that seemed the best way to handle this. "And it just so happens that you are exactly what I'm looking for - so isn't that just extra convenient?"

Oh lord... He should have known better... This kid was basically Alistair but with blue hair.. Good thing he was atleast use to his tricks. Now if only he could apply this same talent to Alistair... Oh well. He'd yell at him later... Damocles just continued to stare at the boy with the same bored expression. "Don't get ahead of yourself kid... If you're looking for me, I'd suggest going some place a little less seedy next time. I am only here because I crossed paths with someone last time. You could have found a whole lot worse then me."

"Well, I wasn't looking for you specifically, but sort of...people like you. Weird, gaudy outfits? Call yourselves Senshi? Some kind of war going on?" He hoped that him knowing those things was enough to pique this man's interest, even if his flirtations obviously weren't working. Maybe he was straight, maybe he was taken, maybe he had no deal - that was fine, really, it just meant that flirting with the unfairly hot blond in front of him wasn't going to do anything.
And alright, with Luka waiting for him at home, flirting in general was a bad idea, he supposed.

"Senshi itself is a broad field to be looking for.. where you looking for a specific kind?" Damocles muttered. "Someone specific? There are a lot of us... Perhaps I can help you find them?"

"Someone specific, yeah," Alex admitted, taking a breath. "I'm looking for a Senshi named Persephone. I, uh, I think she has something to do with what happened to someone close to me."

Damocles blinked. Persephone? Oh boy... this wont be good... He'd have to talk with Natron about this.. The blonde senshi sighed, scrubbing at his face. There was no easy way around this was there? "I... know her.." He said slowly. "I can give her a call at some point and maybe arrange something?" After his conversation with Natron. Which was now definitely going to happen... "Listen kid, It's not safe to go looking for senshi alright?"

Alex perked up immediately. "You can talk to her? God, please tell her I need to meet her. I just...I've got some stuff to ask her, I think she might know what happened to my sister. Or know something about her." He knew he sounded pathetic and pleading, but god, he was desperate. Any kind of word was good word, at this point.

"I can..." Damocles said, as he regarded the boy coolly. The senshi doubted Alex knew exactly what he was getting himself into, or what it could possibly end up as. "But I'm not going to right now if that's what you're hoping for." A tilt of the head sent blonde bangs tumbling to the side. "She's not like me you know. She's a different kind of senshi." She hadn't been in the beginning... but that was too little too late now.
"We're going to do this on my terms, not yours."

Alex chewed on the inside of his cheek. "What are your terms, then?" He asked, reaching up to nervously brush his hair away from his face. He was desperate. It was the only clue he had to Caitlyn's disappearance. "Please, I...really need your help. And hers."

"I will talk to her, alone, and set up a time for you to meet." Damocles said. "It's either this, or you continue to wander the streets. And believe me when I say that is the worse thing you could do." Not only where there people that wouldn't hesitate to kill Alex, there were also things the teen could not even begin to imagine.

Alex nodded eagerly. This was the closest to progress he'd had in his entire search. "I can do that. Just...promise me you'll actually set something up, that you're not jerking me around." He had no clue who this person was underneath that weird outfit, or how much he could trust him. "And give me your name."

"I'll set something up." Damocles promised. He did not like this at ALL, but what else could he do. He knew why Alex was looking, and yet he couldn't say a thing. "It's Damocles. And do not actively look for me. I will find you when it's all taken care of." The blonde demanded. "I'm serious when I say you could die from talking to certain people..."

"Damocles," Alex murmured, committing the name to memory. "I'm Alex." He exhaled. "I won't go looking for you. Or her. But I also won't wait forever." A week. A week seemed fair - if this Damocles couldn't be bothered to get back to him in that time, then he'd have to take it upon himself.
"I'm betting you're going to send me home, now," he said dryly, a slight hint of a grin on his face. "But...thanks."
