It was the night of Christmas Eve. As soon as the clock indicated that it was an hour before midnight - a time when he knew that his parents would be usually fast asleep, Jaeger snuck out of his room to make his way down to the living room, wanting to ensure that everything was ready exactly the way he planned before the arrival of a certain furry feline friend of his.
Saucer of warmed milk.
Check.
Present retrieved from the base of the Christmas tree.
Check.
Now that everything was ready, the redhead sat himself down right next to the Christmas tree, peeking at the time on the clock before focusing his gaze on the back door of the kitchen via which Liryn should be arriving about any time now.

Finally managing to track down his senshi and gaining a team to look out for hadn't stopped Liryn from trying to keep tabs on the other senshi that he'd met along the way, even if keeping 'tabs' had ended up boiling down to periodically dropping in on Jae - aka Sailor Mizar.
Mizar was the first senshi of the very small amount of senshi that he had had a paw in helping to awaken and Liryn had a soft spot for the red-haired senshi of hummingbirds, aided in part by the fact that the other was a total sweetheart for all that he had a habit of speaking in the third person and he gave really, really good scritches.
Mizar, well make that his unpowered counterpart Jae, had also given him a home of sorts before he had moved in permanently with Athene and Ida. Well okay sort of permanently given that he'd occasionally stayed over with Jae during some of said periodic drop ins.
He wasn't really planning to make tonight a stay over drop in though, rather he was planning to give the red-haired senshi a little present in the form of an upgrade to the phone that he'd given the other. After all Liryn liked doing phone upgrades and besides the upgraded phone that Ash had taught him to make was a lot better than the old one - at least it was to his way of thinking.
It was perhaps around ten minutes after eleven by the time that he finally made it over to Jae's place, slipping his way through the flap that his general way in, his purplish eyes night glow as he padded in search of the red head. "Jae?"baby_gwing I'm sorry for taking so long to tag this Gwing, my soul ended up getting eaten by the NYE ball and the aftermath fallout. Let me know if I need to change anything

Turning towards where Liryn was, Jae had a grin on his face as he scrambled to get up and close the distance that remained between the feline guardian and him. "Liryn. Merry Christmas!" He stretched out both hands towards the bobtail, intent on snuggling up the kitty if the other would allow him while he brought him to the Christmas tree where the saucer of warmed milk and the present that he had prepared for the guardian were.
"Jae heard that there was going to be a bit of frost and chill tonight." He ran his hands across the feline's body a few times, hoping that he hadn't caught a chill given that he was the one making the trip over on Christmas Eve despite the weather forecast that was on the evening news. Settling down on the carpeted floor next to the Christmas tree, he gestured towards the saucer that was already there.
"Here... Jae got some milk to help warm Liryn up."

"Merry Christmas to you too Jae" Liryn called back cheerfully as he moved towards the direction where he'd heard Jae's voice come from.
It didn't take long - a few paw pads - and then there was the red head himself, Liryn brushing up against the other in feline greeting before letting Jae catch him up in a snuggle. "I guess it is a bit cold" he agreed cheerfully, "But my winter coat keeps me pretty warm" and most likely a lot warmer than the humans out and about in the winter weather who had to rely on bundling into variations of the coat, scarf and hat combo. "It's good to see you - it's been a while."
And it had been, because there had been finally finding Athene and gaining a team and a whole host of stuff and whilst it hadn't prevented Liryn from periodically dropping by, the stress was on periodically - the trips a lot less frequent then he would like.
Padding over to the indicated milk once set down, he lapped some up appreciatively of Jae's thoughtfulness, purplish eyes looking up at the other as he asked "How have you been? Is everything well?" He lapped up some more milk before adding "On both sides?" That last was a reference to the other side of Jae's life - the powered side.baby_gwing Again apologies for taking so long to tag this back Gwing, I have been the worst with tags lately

Snuggling on Liryn for a little more, Jae eventually picked the feline up, craning his neck as he gave the guardian a good look over. "Jae didn't know that kitties get winter coats too. Liryn doesn't look any different from the last time Jae saw Liryn." Setting the bobtail down so that he could help himself to the saucer of warmed milk that he had readied for him, he smiled wistfully.
"Yeah. Jae's going to college come Fall. New place so Jae's not looking forward to it." He made no mention about his powered side mainly because he really hadn't powered up or patrolled on his own since the bobtail stopped dropping by as often as he used to in the past. It wasn't anyone's fault in particular really. He just didn't know what to do with himself so he just stopped doing it was all.
"So what has Liryn been up to? Is everything okie?"

Liryn laughed as Jae looked him over “Well my coat’s a bit fluffier from when we saw each other last and it will probably stay that way until about spring or so.”
Once back by the milk, he dipped his head and lapped some more of the warmed milk up, although he looked up at Jae’s mention of college.
“Arian and Orah go to college too, at least they do when they’re not being Athene and Ida.” He thought about it. “Well Arian calls it university, but I guess it’s still college.” He lapped up a bit more milk before continuing “Is your college DCU? Maybe you’ll see the two of them there. Liam too maybe.” Because whilst he wasn’t completely sure, he’d thought he’d heard it mentioned that Liam was also going to DCU.
“And things have been a bit busy. Orah’s gone to see her family and so it’s just me, Arian, Liam and Lola. She’s Orah’s cat - but she’s a cat-cat rather than a mauvian like me - and Arian’s been baking stuff.”
He paused for breath and drank a bit more of the milk before adding “And I have a present for yoy” well okay it was more a case of he was going to make a present. “But it’s a Mizar one rather than a Jae one and I’ll need to borrow your phone.”
He thought about it before adding “And we probably should do it outside and away from the house.”
Because powering up at home was a really big ‘no no’.

Running his hand through the mauvian's coat and finding it to be indeed thicker just as Liryn had said it would be, Jae smiled. "In that case, Liryn may not have much use for Jae's present then." A box that was already gift wrapped in an adorable paw print motif wrapping paper was slid over to the bobtail with a sheepish look on his face. "But Jae will like Liryn to have it nonetheless though."
He was silent when Liryn shared with him that both Arian and Orah and quite possibly Liam as well went to DCU, a pensive expression crossing his face at the slightly heartening prospect that he would have friends there in a new environment though it remained to be seen if they would so readily accept him given the quirky way with which he referred to himself whenever he spoke. "Does Liryn know what subjects Arian, Orah and Liam are majoring in? Perhaps Jae may have a class or two in common..."
He pulled his hand back, barely suppressing a sigh at his newfound concerns until Liryn's mention of him having a present for him momentarily drew his attention away from all the unpleasant thoughts in his mind. "A present?" He blinked once then another time before he quickly composed himself and moved to get up so that he could head towards the back door that was in the kitchen, his hand slipping into the pocket where his pen was. "Okay. Mum and Dad are asleep so heading out for a bit shouldn't be a problem." It would just be a quick one so that Liryn could do whatever he needed to with his phone. No patrols. No possibility of anything going wrong on a Christmas Eve night.

"Of course I'll have a use for your present" Liryn contradicted, his voice cheerful, but firm as he brushed against Jae's fingers.
His purplish eyes looked thoughtful for a moment at the redhead's question about classes "Well I'm not sure what Liam's studying, but Orah's studying to be a nurse and Arian's studying Jewellery and..." he thought it over some more "Jewellery and silversmithing."
"Yes I have a present for you too" Liryn continued in answer to Jae's query, nodding his head in a quick up-down movement of his head before sitting back on his hauches. "I hope you'll have a use for it too."
Because whilst personally he thought that the new smart phone that Ash and ********* had come up with was super useful and super better than the previous incarnation, Liryn was equally aware that might not be true for all senshi - Irene being a case in point.
There was also the fact that whilst Jae had talked about Jae stuff, he hadn't actually mentioned any Mizar stuff, although perhaps that was just because of being at home.
It was something that he could ask when they were outside and a bit away from the house he decided as he said "Ready when you are."
Something to ask after he'd completed the phone upgrade.

Jewellery and silversmithing. Depending on how things panned out following his DCU matriculation, there was a possibility that he might run into Arian at some point then. Jae nodded with a smile at how adorable and sweet Liryn was. "Jae's sure it will be."
Unlocking the back door, he turned to pick up the bobtail if he would let him, snuggling the Mauvian close as he shut the door behind them to start towards the woods that was just a 10 minute walk down the dirt path that was behind the house. He stopped just short of heading into the woods, deciding that this was far enough for their intended purpose before powering up. "Jae treasures everything that Jae has gotten from Liryn." He told Liryn as he set him down then handed over his phone.

Liryn had padded after Jae on paws that were cat-quiet as the other headed in the direction of the back doors.
There were woods back there if he remembered right, which he was hoping he was, since woods would be perfect - both to allow Jae the privacy to henshin up as Mizar as well as giving him the privacy to upgrade Mizar's phone.
Despite being perfectly able to walk the distance, Liryn was happy enough to let Jae scoop him up since the red-head liked to cuddle him and Liryn quite liked being cuddled. Perhaps not quite as much as he liked scritches as scritches were his not-so-secret weakness - but cuddles were definitely nice.
As it turned out he was right about the woods and whilst Jae stopped short of going in, Liryn that where they were was safe enough since there didn't appear to be anyone else around - he'd checked - and he couldn't sense any nearby auras.
And so he brushed against Jae's legs at the other's comment, before settling to down to wait for him to finish powering up so that the other could access his senshi phone.baby_gwing I figured that Jae would probably have to actually power up to access his senshi phone since I think it gets stored in subspace when senshi are powered down, but I can always edit if needs be :3

Now that Jae thought about it as he pulled his senshi pen out from his pocket, it really had been a while since he was Sailor Mizar last. Probably a couple of months give or take. Powering up to the Senshi Scout that he was, he summoned his senshi phone from... well, wherever it was kept till he had a need for it and handed it over to Liryn.
"Here it is."
Sitting himself down beside the bobtail, he stretched a hand out to lightly scratch the top of Liryn's fluffy head as well as behind his ears, falling silent with a sombre look on his face as he retracted his hand to allow the feline to concentrate proper on the task at hand. He really hoped that it wouldn't occur to Liryn to ask him again about what he did as a Senshi during his period of absence. He could gloss over the question, even to the point of pretending that he didn't hear it the first time round, but Jae was no liar if things really had to come to that.

"Thank you" Liryn said cheerfully as Jae, now Mizar, handed over the senshi phone that had been the only senshi phone that he'd known how to make at the time.
The scritch on Mizar's fingers on the fur at the top of his had been nice, but short - although perhaps that was all to the best because nice as they were scritches could also be a little distracting.
Perhaps it could be a later thing - but for now it was time to get to work.
He lauched into a backflip that Mizar perhaps find familiar given that it was similar to the one that produced his henshin pen and phone.
The item that clattered downwards was not a henshin pen however, was instead a phone, but one that looked to be like a newer model to the one that Mizar had handed over.
Picking up the phone that Mizar had given him in his mouth, Liryn padded back to the where the other fallen and set down the phone before saying "Ash and ********* came up with an upgrade to the senshi phones and Ash taught me how to do it" he paused to nose the first phone over so that he could get its back before continuing "I think the new phones are neat, so I wanted to have one."baby_gwing no worries <3 I'll have Liryn do the actual phone upgrade in my next post and then we can have the youma make an appearance :3

It appeared that Liryn would be too engrossed with working on his phone upgrade to even remember the fact that he hadn't responded to his earlier question so Mizar allowed himself to relax for now, content to just watch over the bobtail while he worked. "Ash and *********> A wry smile crossed his face then at the mention of the unfamiliar names which, though unintentional, also served as a stark reminder of the fact that everyone around him, the mauvian included, had moved on while he as both Jaeger and Mizar was content to cling onto the past and simply stagnate.
"Seems to Mizar that Liryn has made plenty of friends since Liryn started living with Arian." He remarked, a hint of melancholy tinged with loneliness and perhaps a little bit of envy reflected in the tone of his voice. Reaching over to help the bobtail flip his original phone over, he was silent for a while though that wasn't the case for long. "So um... how is this phone supposed to be different then?"
litian Sounds like a plan to me <3

As it happened Liryn hadn't forgotten about the earlier omission from back in the house when Mizar had been powered down and Jae, but the tabby bobtail had been planning to ask the other about it after he completed the phone upgrade.
To that end Liryn had pried open the back of the new phone and then had turned his attention to Mizar's original phone. The red head had flipped the original phone for him so that he could get at the back and whilst Liryn was perfectly able to do it himself, having done it a few times by now, it was also the sort of sweet action that he associated with the other - because Mizar was kind.
It hadn't taken him too long to find the part he needed from Mizar's soon to be former phone and he had carefully removed it, before padding over and installing it in the new phone "It's a smartphone with apps and stuff" he said. "And it's so much sleeker than the other phone I gave you initially."
He snapped the back into place and picked up the phone before padding over to Mizar and setting it carefully down before looking up his purplish eyes unusually serious.
"Is everything okay with the senshi stuff?" Because it was something that had occurred to him as he had worked on the phone upgrade. "You know I'm here to help if you ever need me too right" he sat up on his haunches and gently raised a paw out. "I know that I do a lot of PSSG stuff with Athene and Ida and that I do Black Watch stuff, but I still consider you every much my senshi."
It wasn't the same as the way that he considered the PSSG members his senshi, but Mizar was one of the senshi that he had helped awaken - moreover he was the first senshi that he had ever helped to awaken.
And besides Liryn didn't like it when those that he cared for were having problems and he was in the dark about said problems. Because if he didn't know then he couldn't help.

Picking up the newly upgraded senshi phone that was handed back to him, Mizar took a brief moment to look it over this way and that, locating the power button easily and pressing it for a few seconds with his thumb in order to turn it on for the very first time. "Jae... Mizar has got a smartphone too. It'll probably take awhile for Mizar to reacquaint with the various functions before exploring the new apps and features but Mizar can see how much more useful this is going to be already. Thanks Liryn."
The Senshi of Hummingbirds thanked the bobtail with a smile though that very quickly faltered as soon as he realised from the look that Liryn was giving him that the mauvian wasn't going to drop the question that he was hoping to avoid answering altogether. "Mizar knows that..." He averted his gaze, a sad look crossing his face now while he pondered over how best to word his response. "Nothing's wrong or can potentially go wrong if Mizar hasn't been powering up much... right?"
He admitted eventually, looking up at first the proffered paw then into the feline's purplish eyes. He didn't know why he stopped powering up or going on patrols as soon as Liryn left him to his own devices. At first it was because of school. There was the college entrance exams that he needed to focus his entire attention on during a period of his life. But things didn't change even when that was over and he had settled somewhat over in DCU. He might have felt lost, lonely even but that all wasn't Liryn's fault.
"... is Liryn disappointed?"
