There were many reasons to be out and about, not the least of which was trying to find information- whether of the whereabouts of still missing senshi like Amphitrite, finding new faces, or networking further to try to expand the general knowledge base with answers and leads on questions that still plagued the Primer and Order in general. So far, Thraen hadn't had a great deal of luck on any account. He slowed, coming to the Eastern Metro Park, to walk across the expanse of it. There were trees, lanes, and grass expanses in alternation and plenty, but it didn't lend to the rapid sprint and leaps of rooftop traverse. Then he felt it- an aura dim as one of the shadow creatures from years previous but not lacking in quality as they did. It was plainly clean and pure, an aura of Order. Reminiscent of Ash, or Faust, or Snowball in size and strength. A Mauvian is near. Very near. He came to a full and standing halt, looking around in time to be startled as a set of crows flushed out of the nearby tree and a furry pursuer shot out after them. It was the Mauvian he'd expected, but one he'd never seen before. Yinesa Let me know if there need to be any changes~

After her run in with Sailor Pistol, and her subsequent feeding and sleeping, Diana had meandered off to explore again! She was on a mission! A mission to find others!
A mission that had been interrupted completely by a large murder of crows had been spotted... and subsequently been chased! The kitten stood she had landed after her pounce, fur on edge as she bounced a bit in place, making a 'fft ftt' noise at the escaping crows.
Darn! No catch this time. Pushing down on her haunches, she wiggled her butt in the air, swiping a paw up towards the sky at them. Well, they definitely weren't coming back now. What a shame. Diana was certain she'd get them next time though.
It was only when she circled around once that an aura caught her attention. With a short 'prrt' noise, she stood, facing over towards the human man standing and seemingly looking at her. The purple kitten tilted her head a bit, and the bell on her collar chimed.
This time she did not move closer to the person though, instead she simply continued to look at him, seemingly waiting on what he intended upon. Though part of her wanted to run over in excitement, that would be rude.

The first step in introductions was generally not to loom so much, a problem of his uniform and general height. Thraen offered the small spacecat a renaissance bow, "I'm Thraen, Senshi of Gardens. I don't believe we've met before, Mauvian-?" He left the space for the other's introduction if they chose to give it, switching himself from a bow posture down into a baseball-crouch. Hopefully that was non-threatening. I don't feel any other aura's about, so we both should be safe. Hunting for...pleasure? food? Plenty of the Mauvian's seem to be stuck as a life of strays if they don't make a point of staying with one senshi. I wonder if something can be done for that. Maybe...some place other than the headquarters, with beds and food. A place to relax and with some build of neutrality.
I wonder if I can pet this one...they look very soft.

Diana would have been amused, could she hear the senshi's thoughts. Instead, she listened to his greeting and perked her head back up from the tilt it had found itself in. A few tentative steps forward, and a jingly bell later, she was now standing on the ground before him, craning her neck up to look at him a little better. Despite his crouching, he was still much larger and taller than she.
"Hello Thraen, sir. I am Diana, guardian of small lady." it was hard to let that drop, despite the loss of her royal companion.
"We have no met, no, sir." her voice was chipper and she seemed rather excited to be speaking to him. For her, this was two senshi in a brief time! That bode well for order. Her belly was gleeful and caused her to giggle, a purr quickly accompanying it.
"I apologize I did not notice you sooner! I was..." a pause.
"I was investigating those crows. Pertinent information." she lied a bit, embarrassed, maybe a little, by being caught playing with them. Well, maybe not a full out lie, she was rather interested in having one of their feathers to play with.

Guardian of Small Lady? There wasn't much to garner from that other than the Mauvian was bonded to a senshi and that was her usual name for the other. Much like how Faust referred to him as 'Blondie'. Diana's charge was the luckier for nicknames. The purr started, and her pleasant words seemed pleasant enough that he hazarded to set a hand lightly to her ruff and stroke back along to her tail in a long, firm, massaging pet. "I don't think I've met anyone going by 'small lady', but I haven't generally met many bonded pairs. " Which speaks fortuitously of this happenstance. Maybe they have been away, like Odysseus? Or a Pair early and eager found to each other? Or even abroad..though her English sounds native enough. I've at least seen a large share of scouts and knights thanks to the large battles and Watch. "Are you new to Destiny City? Or awakening? Or recently returned? I've been in this about two years, but I've met some senshi who've been many years longer. Just the same, I've watched an alleycat suddenly start talking and manifest as a Mauvian. " He let the matter of the crows politely drop at her dismissal. Plenty about the Mauvians was still perfectly, delightfully, catlike, but they seemed to prefer to keep it out of the drawing room. It made for the best pictures, though, when one had cellphone to hand.

This was delightful. The kitten's purr became louder as the hand stroked her back and tail. Though he was talking in gibberish. Bonded pairs? She'd never really considered that's what it was to be a guardian. Her eyes just peered up at him, curiously, questioning his own questions.
"Small Lady is gone, sir." she mumbled, a frown on her face and the purring all but ceased.
"I don't know where, but I do not think she will be back." a quick shake of her head, she didn't want to think of it. It broke her heart, but deep down, she felt at least, that Small Lady was safe. Really, that gave her at least a touch of ease to that pain.
"I am staying with Sailor Pistol now." she offered though. "I have been here a little while, but I have been alone til recently. Before though, sir? Before I was with Small lady, always." she grinned.
"Sailor Pistol is very kind though. I like her." she listened to him continue about Mauvians and she pawed at her ears.
"I have met one other mauvian, his name was Poseidon. He was very cranky but I liked him." she grinned, though it was a strange admission, she thought, to have only ever met one other of her kind.

Gone. And not to come back. Is that a euphemism for dying? No telling, but it doesn't seem like there would be a use for that. Other than not admitting it to avoid internal pain, I suppose. Trouble facing truths, even just in terminology is usual. But that doesn't make certainty either. And the name still not used. Another strange persistence, in the face of a leading question. She ceases purring on talk of it. It is attached to pain, though not enough to cause pain-purring. or not enough yet. Was the separation recent? 'Alone until recently'- time is a spectrum differently measured person to person. Carefully, Thraen wrapped hands under the kitten's belly and back legs to lift her securely to shoulder. It wasn't a quick motion to pick her up, nor a strangle hold, so she could escape if she didn't want the closer proximity and comfort of contact. "I have not met Sailor Pistol or a Mauvian named Poseidon. Our circles have been different, and gladly have crossed, then. Will you be staying with Pistol a while?" "Have you been by the HQ? I've gotten the impression a few of the other Mauvians are regularly there. Mostly Ash, a little silver tabby Mauvian. She's very much a technophile." And Faust very much not. Horatio it was hard to tell. As with *********. So what are the likes and dislikes of Diana?

"I think I will be, yes." the kitten nodded her head. Pistol was kindly and she liked her. She seemed more than willing to let her stay with her as well, so there was that!
As the senshi went on to talk about the HQ, Diana wore a confused face. In all honesty she had no idea what he was talking about. It was evident she'd not found her way there. Her mind whirred and she considered this sounded like something she ought to look into, however.
"I'm afraid not." she offered in response there, a small shake of her head as she spoke, "Though it sounds interesting."
"I haven't met any other Mauvians here outside of Poseidon." she offered with a tiny shrug. For a moment she was distracted from her thoughts, mouthing the word 'technophile' it was a strange word that was fun to repeat.
The kitten suddenly shifted, moving to lightly sniff at the senshi, pawing a bit at his uniform. She seemed interested in the things coming off it, not unlike a real kitten, she mostly seemed interested in batting at anything that dangled off.
"I'd like to meet others like me, I think." she finally added as she suddenly found a claw stuck a bit in the fabric of his uniform.
Uh oh. Ivynian dfkjs;dlkf D8 For some reason my quotes never told me that I had replies in here :< Missed this one and another >_O; So sorry for the delay oh my goodness.

"I've heard the Mauvian Headquarters is under Destiny City Tower. I've never been to it, so I couldn't tell you where the door or entryway is, or if there's some trick of getting in and finding it. " The battings at the ferns, flowers and other pieces of foliage didn't trouble the eternal. In fact, he watched with a quiet delight that showed in the slight crinkly of his lower eyelids. Really, he wanted to pull out his senshi phone and snap a few pictures of this new, furry find for his growing collection of mauvian captures. It would be awkward for a first meeting, so he refrained. The caught-claw paw was gently administered help, on hand pushing down on the materials under it and the other carefully taking hold and moving the paw in an up-over motion to disengage it. His usual furry companion used him as a clawing post often enough, the innocent playings of the kitten were a non-issue. "And Mauvian Faust lives with me. Maybe You, Pistol, Faust and I could meet up sometime? Compare notes or go on a patrol? Faust is very active, and gets bored of a lot of talk. " "Do mauvians age differently than humans?" He'd never much considered the differences or similarities, or the relation of the ir physiology to actual cats. As a biped, the few he seemed appeared adult. Did kitten Mauvians appear as children? Or would they still seem adults? Do they only live as long a cats? 15 years unless they're a siamese and make it to 20? Or are they more ageless seeming? Things with Zia at the mirror seemed to point that she would be a lot older than 20, given her own body in her own world.

Had he taken out his phone to snap her picture, he would have found Diana a more than willing subject. She was soaking in the attention she'd been receiving as of late, but right now she was simply glad he was helping her claws out of his cloth.
"I think I'd like that!" she chirped and pawed lightly at the hand that had just freed her. "I think Pistol would like that too? I will ask her when I go back to her, sir, I swear!" the kitten seemed thrilled with this idea, and her entire body wriggled as a purr rolled out of her. "Compare notes and go on patrol perhaps? A shame he doesn't like to talk a lot though... but I do like to be active as well!" was she rambling? Maybe. She was really trying to contain some of her joy, but it was hard. There was so much going on in the world right now and so many things to learn. Thraen was very kindly too! Really everyone she was meeting was. Thraen really seemed invested in information though and she could get behind that. In her mind she knew everything.
Except the answer to his next question. She wasn't certain. Though she'd do her best to answer it anyway, rather than admit she wasn't sure.
"Differently, yes." she added with a nod of her head. She was fairly certain they aged slower than humans. After all she'd been a kitten for quite some time now, and last she checked, she was still a tiny child-like human in her humanoid form. Her parents were a fair age too, and still quite healthy and well, and they didn't look terribly old.
Huh.
"I'm about this high on you, sir!" the kitten bounced up a bit, pawing somewhere just above the senshi's waist, taking an educated guess at where she'd come up to on him (she was probably a little off but it was a wild guess and she didn't feel safe just turning over into it to check). Why she was adding this information, she wasn't certain, but it felt like it would help with his question somehow!

Having 'broken the seal' on touching the newly discovered furry star-friend, Thraen could not resist subsequently maneuvering to further interaction via petting gently along her bright ruff and back after the light pawings. "Since Pistol and I don't have each other scanned for easy contact, I can stop by here every night and check for you both. Whenever she's ready, and yourself, come here for ...11pm on whatever day. I might not be her exactly then, but a ten minute grace on either side should suffice. If I don't show up two days in a row then something may have happened. Once we do meet, we can scan each other and then sending messages will be a lot easier. Unless you have your own magic cell? ********* keeps one under her hat, but other mauvian's I've met haven't had a phone of their own, even if they provide them to senshi. Or if Pistol knows any knights, they can send word to anyone somehow. " Uncertain as the explanation was in depth, it was a comfort that maybe age would not take any of the furry friends as early as it did regular cats in the spans of difference between human and feline longevity. Maybe it will be the other way around, and Faust, Ash, and the others will outlive all of us. IF we don't die in combat first. But this little one can be a biped already...Ash was just able to in recent months. What determines it? Will Faust soon? "That isn't very large, " He considered the height she indicated. "Are you a 'kitten'? Do Mauvian's use feline terms? Or some other terms? "
