Erythrite hadn't brought Pei to her apartment, when she called the youma out of the Rift. Oh no, that would be the opposite of safe - a Dark Mirror, a Nega Captain, and a youma? Too many auras in one small place. Instead, she had sent her girlfriend a text, asking to meet her in the park and warning that a youma was with her - in case that made Machholz uninterested in coming. She wasn't entirely sure what the Dark Mirror's stance on them was.
"She'll be here soon," the Captain promised, "I think."
"As long as she comes," Pei said, fiddling with the mirror. She turned it over in her hands, humming quietly.

Machholz didn't know what the stance on them was. She personally didn't like youma, but Erythrite was texting her with one, therefore this one was either..... friendly (that thought made her cringe) or too small to worry about dusting. Either way, it piqued her curiosity and Machholz made her way down to the park without any big hurry. Naturally the scared senshi had reservations about coming this way by herself, but she was going to meet Erythrite, and aside from a youma energy and Ery's.. it seemed pretty safe. Sighing, the girl in green found her girlfriend, but stayed in the shadows because, well, if this youma was going to attack she was not going to be right beside it, okay. That was just not smart.

Erythrite could feel a Dark Mirror aura nearby, and she looked around. "Machholz? Baby, is that you?" She asked. She could see a shape in the shadows, and beckoned. "Come on, I promise this will be quick."
"You're in no danger," Peisithoe said, and her voice was reassuring and musical - gentle, for a being who looked more monster than human.

Well that was the sickly sweet voice she didn't trust. Still, she stepped closer, keeping her guard up before giving Peisithoe a look over from head to toe and then back to Erythrite. Her examination of her girlfriend was much, much more thorough than that of the youma, looking for injuries or missing fingers. Sighing quietly, she stepped closer still and took hold of Erythrite's hand. "....So why am I not dusting this one?" The venom in her words should be able to peel paint.

Erythrite exhaled, fingers curling around Machholz's. "Because this one isn't dangerous. She...wanted to meet you." It was hard to explain that not every youma wanted to indiscriminately eat people and suchlike, particularly when a dozen of them had nearly kileld her.
"So distrustful," Pei hummed, waling in a circle aorund Machholz. "But fascinating!"

The way the other was circling her made her want to kick out and swipe the youma onto her stupid little a**. But she couldn't because apparently this was a good one? She laughed mentally at that and just gave Erythrite a 'yeah right' look. She pulled away to start facing the youma whenever she tried to circle and tensed up even more. "Stop that, vulture. Ery, what the hell? Seriously. Explain."

"Machholz, I promise, she's not dangerous. Her name is Peisithoe," Erythrite said. "Not every youma is a stupid slavering monster. Some of them are intelligent. Like...like people, almost. Pei is one of those, and she's helping me. She promised she'd give me that mirror if I did a few things for her - nothing terrible, I promise - and if I...let her meet you."
"Almost? I'm hurt," Pei said, but she stopped moving, putting her hands on her hips and clicking her tongue. "So tell me, dearie, what are you? Not one of our Senshi, obviously, but not some fool Order child either."

"Why do you want a mirror?" Machholz asked, trying to not growl at Pei. Gold eyes narrowed on the youma and she just put her hands on her hips, mimicking the youma's pose before huffing. "I'm a Dark Mirror Senshi." Maybe.... just maybe she could drop her guard and believe that this one wasn't going to hurt her. Most youma would try to kill her by now, or even be dusted. "....I'm something in between."

"It shows people when they're in danger," Erythrite said, and her voice was soft. She hoped the reason she would want a mirror like that was clear. Her eyes pleaded with Machholz to understand. "I need it."
Peisithoe's eyes flicked over to the Captain. "And of ourse I'll hand it over, in just a moment...but oh please, tell me more about yourself. I've never even heard of a Dark Mirror Senshi -- much less seen one! What can you do?" Her long tail swished happily behind her. "Tell me this, and I'll give Erythrite the mirror and leave you two to be. Unless you'd like something more form me, of course," she said, and her voice was light and friendly.

Slowly she dropped her attitude and just leaned in to kiss Erythrite's cheek. She knew that look, that sweet, pleading look and Machholz really couldn't deny her anything. Then Pei was talking and she looked at the youma for the first time without distrust in her eyes and thought about it for a moment. "..I can mirror walk. I can use mirrors to get from one place to another. ...I'm ... well, what I've come to realize, is I'm kind of a gray area in this whole war that's going on between Negaverse and the Senshi." She moved closer, eyeing that tail and then gave a little noise. She was actually rather.... not disgusting. Kind of cute in a way. "What can you do?" Now she was getting truly interested.

Erythrite relaxed when Machholz kissed her cheek. Clearly this was going better than it had started off, and she was glad for that. Having this teeter on the edge of her girlfriend and her youma (was Pei really hers? She'd like that, but she suspected the answer was no) coming to blows had made her nervous.
Pei hummed. "This is an appropriate gift, then," she said, fingers brushing over the surface of the mirror. "As for what I can do...a few small tricks. My voice is...distracting, alluring, if I want it to be. A siren song, one might say."

"Ah... Siren, are you?" She asked, giggling a little before leaning back into her girlfriend, resting her head on the other's shoulder and just looked at the mirror. That would come in handy for communication and possible transportation. Though if she could actually fit through a small mirror, she didn't know. Machholz had never tried it before, using smaller mirrors. It could possibly work, what with magic and all. Maybe she'd ask Leto about that. "Well, don't betwitch this one. She's mine."

Pei laughed, and offered the mirror to Erythrite. The Captain took it, fingers brushing over the dark, clouded glass. "All yours," the youma said, sweeping a bow and vanishing, presumably back into the Rift.
"Wow," Erythrite murmured, and then she slid her free arm around Machholz's waist. "I think you impressed her."

She watched the youma go and then just looked at her girlfriend and pressed a kiss to her lips. "Good. Though I don't really care if I impress her. It's you I try to impress." With that, she took the mirror from her girlfriend to examine it closely. Songstress Kitsune ((You can wrap your next post?))

Erythrite laughed. "Well, you don't have to work at that, I promise," she said, kissing the side of Machholz's head. "Come on, let's go home. We'll fiddle with that thing later, yeah?"
