It was her first Saturday off in what felt like forever, so Prissy did what any other self-respecting, newly-awakened corrupted senshi would do. She played with her powers. One black heel pushed off from the pavement, sending the pink haired senshi flying into the air. She landed (somewhat) gracefully on top of the nearby building, eliciting a burst of giggles from within her as crimson gloves clapped together happily. She could jump buildings! She could jump high, she could attack things and she looked like a magical princess while doing so. Granted, Grendel had explained to her that she wasn't a princess by any means...but it was close enough, right? Special, magical, whatever, she could do things that no normal twenty-year old could do, so she was more than satisfied. Glancing behind her, she double-checked for any surprise visitors. The senshi of candy had been warned about her power signature being strong enough to alert others of her presence, but she hoped she could mess around and test out her powers for just a little while longer before going back to normal, plain 'ol Prissy life. Another dash forward and a leap - the senshi sailed over towards the adjacent building's rooftop, her heels clicking against the graveled surface with every step. Besides...surely she could fight off any adversary again, right? What was the point of having powers if you didn't get to use them?! Unoderi pink haired senshi: ASSEMBLE

As a chibi senshi, there were two things Cadmus was exceptionally talented at: Jumping from rooftop to rooftop and elegantly face-planting on those rooftops.
Having escaped his home for the umpteenth time that week, the chibi would jump the two stories to the house beside his and take to skipping across the gaps between each building like a stone over water. He certainly had the speed and strength to cover what would, to a normal human, be certain death should they fall, but his landings, well, they needed some work still. Every time he thought he'd be steady on his feet, Cadmus would misstep one or two times and turn into a pile of ouch as his body made direct contact with the roof itself.
This, of course, was one of those moments.
Pushing himself up, he ran a thumb over his slightly skinned elbow and let out a sigh. "If I don't get better at this soon, dad's gonna think I'm getting bullied," he said to himself, glancing eyes to the yellowy bruise on his shin from another faulty landing two nights before. "He always thinks that when I get hurt— Huh?"
Energy signatures tended to manifest to weird ways for the boy. Order characters tended to elicit throbs in the back of his head, neutral ones a tickle along his jowl, and as he was beginning to discover, members of chaos and their creatures provoked a pull on his earlobe; as if they were a stern teacher tugging him to the principal's office. He immediately felt scared.
However, there was something different about this one. It didn't feel the same as a youma encounter. Not particularly better, per se, but certainly different. Cadmus swallowed thickly and decided to venture further to see who—or what—was the source of the tug.
His answer was right before him after a few steps. She looked like a senshi, though none he's ever witnessed before. Most were decked out in white, but this one wore black; obviously not a good sign, but Cadmus still wasn't sure.
"Um," he said as calmly as possible. "I see you're a senshi too... I'm Cadmus, who're you?"

"I see you're a senshi too... I'm Cadmus, who're you?"What in the world? She hadn't been aware of his presence, not at first. The flicker of a surge had passed through her mind, almost the same flicker she'd felt when meeting a Guardian cat. Small. Harmless. So when she turned around and saw a small kid standing behind her, she was fairly surprised, her expression giving it away. Black heels returned to the surface of the roof's edge, the older senshi slowly turning around to face the tiny poet. Black fabric and pink hair swayed with the turn, as did her bow when her head tilted gently to the side. "Cadmus." He was so tiny - his signature seemed different in comparison to her own. Off. He wasn't seeking power, he lacked the shadow that covered her own. White Moon? Did the White Moon recruit babies? "I am Sailor Dia." Eyes that had been inspecting the young senshi moved to their surroundings, as though she feared there were more of him, tiny little White Moons, lurking among the rooftop towers. Keeping her voice light and airy, she smiled sweetly at the little boy with the most delightfully pink hair. "Are you alone, little Cadmus?"

A slight gale seemed to pick up between the space between the two; clattering the red beads on Cadmus's shoulders and flicking up the tassels on his front and back like wagging tails. It shivered the boy to his core, but he didn't betray a tremble. In fact, he was straddling the line between fleeing for his life and holding his ground.
He knew she was bad. In fact, he could feel it now. The tug had grown strong with a sting; as if a implacable hand was rolling his earlobe between forefinger and thumb. He even winced at the sensation.
Cadmus almost lied to pour on his heroic side. No, I'm not alone! he would've said proudly. I have comrades everywhere—in the skies, in the streets, in my shoe! You don't stand a chance!
Unfortunately, this wasn't a scene in a comic book, no matter how much he wished it.
"Yea, I'm alone," the boy said rather flippantly. "I prefer being alone, got no one to bother me when I have a little fun. I'm guessing you're the same?" Cadmus's red eyes traveled across the expanse of the rooftop. "Unless your friend is good at hide-and-seek."

"Friend?" She couldn't help but smirk, a feeling of relief instantly washing over her as he admitted to his solidarity. So he was alone, hm? A lonely little baby senshi, susceptible against anyone or anything that found him. She didn't have the faintest clue of what she should do with a cornered senshi (especially such a tiny tot as this one was!), but that didn't mean she couldn't have a bit of fun with one. In fact, this could be rather amusing, if she played her cards right. "Oh, I don't have any friends." She averted her eyes from him, studying the ground as she slowly moved forward, closing in the space between them with gentle clicks of her heels. "You could say I'm...new, around town." One glove absentmindedly began to play with one of her long waves of hair, the other moving over to comb through her locks. Coy, she could do. Deceive, possibly. Innocent? Not so much. Finally, she looked back at him, pausing in her brushing. Her eyes remained wide, almost hopeful. "Would you be my new friend, Cadmus?" Unoderi cadmus no, she'll give you cavities

Like rubies turned about in the sun, Cadmus's red eyes glistened. He... He liked the sound of that. How could anyone say no to friends? And she was also new to town! Like him! They had so much in common!
But Cadmus, unfortunately, wasn't wholly convinced. Both his ears were throbbing when Dia closed the space between them. He reflexively took a step back, beads clattering again this time, but more from a tremble rather than the wind. Swallowing thickly, he glanced red eyes on an equally deep pink, and fixed them into a determined scowl as he tried to hold his own.
"I... I don't think I want to be your friend," Cadmus said. "Your a pain to be around... I-I mean, I didn't mean it that way, I mean your precense is a pain... Wait." He shook his hands by the side of his head. "You're giving me a headache, like you're annoying! Oh, but you're not annoying! I— Your energy signature! Your energy signature is painful, so I can't!"
Smooth move, Cadmus.

Cadmus wasn't the only one struggling. The older senshi found herself growing perturbed at his outburst, the chibi clearly not taking her bait - not because of her offer, but because of her aura? What kind of.... Leaning down, she stuck out her bottom lip in a sulky pout. Her hand paused in its combing, the woman trying to do her best to look hurt. "That's not very nice, Cadmus. I thought all senshi were supposed to be nice and sweet." One hand moved out, a small gumdrop appearing inches above in the air, softly dropping into the palm of her gloved hand. "And here I was, going to offer to share my candy with you...." Unoderi sorry for shortness, typing from my phone!

Cadmus felt his mouth water. That candy did look good and he did have a bit of a sweet tooth, but... As his hand stretched out to take the delicious treat from her, he paused. Suddenly, the senshi withdrew it back. Clapping, he thrust his hands palm-first toward the older woman and scowled.
"I don't know about all of them, but I'm sure not!" he said, sounding kind of cool. His internal ego swelled as it felt just like a line out of a comic book. "I don't know what you're planning, but— Wah!"
He didn't mean to fire the first shot. The clapping and pose were to only ready the need to strike should Dia had taken the first move like a hand on the trigger threateningly. Somewhere along the transmission between thought control and actual initiation, the signal was muddled, and a launch of cranberries shot from the boy's hand in the direction of the senshi of candy. Cadmus squawked in surprise at his folly.
"Oh, crap!" he cried aloud. "S-sorry!"

Without any warning, the cranberries came from out of nowhere. Had she any idea that he would shoot first, she might have at least blocked her face, if not stepped aside from the barrage of berries. Instead, she found herself in the direct path of his aim, the first of the hoard of berries smashing into her face. The first impact came as a surprise, the older senshi too startled to react. As the second, third and fourth berry made contact, however, a shriek erupted from her as arms flew up to protect her splattered red-streaked face. Dia attempted to stand up, with intentions of moving away from the wave of tiny red berries, but the force of the attack threw her off balance. Coupled with her black ribbons snagging the back of her heel, the woman was sent flying backwards, landing with an undignified thud and yelp. "You little..." Her startled expression twisted into a scowl, the anger evident. She lifted her hand to throw the candy at the little brat...only to find her hand stuck to the rooftop?? Oh no. With the impact of the fall and the candy still in her palm, the goo had exploded, sticking her instead! The senshi let out another scream, struggling to free herself from her own gooey mess. Finding herself unfortunately glued firmly to the concrete, she did the only thing she could think of on a moment's notice. Raising her free hand, she conjured a second gumdrop - and this time, she wasted no opportunity to launch it in the teenager's direction. Unoderi Sailor Scout Attack - Candy Coating Dia conjures a small gumdrop and throws it at her opponent. Aim and strength depends on her personal capabilities (so chance of missing heightens greatly, the further out the enemy is). Should the gumball make contact, it releases a sticky candy goo that covers 1-2 feet of area wherever it hits (so if a head shot, the head/hair is covered, if arm, the arm and shoulder, etc). This thick goo is painless, but thick enough to temporarily blind/slow/irritate the opponent. It fades after 20 seconds. 2 uses per battle.

Cadmus had a penchant for expecting the worst things to happen to him. However, when he noticed that his accidental attack had worked for the better, the chibi senshi couldn't help but woop by kissing his fist and thrusting it to the sky.
"Aw, yea! That's what I'm talking about!"
Unfortunately, irony was a terrible mistress, and as he yipped, Dia's gumdrop collided with his face mid-cheer, shutting up his pompous displays of victory for good.
"Don't mess with Cadmu— Mhmm!"
His eyes widened to the whites as he clawed at the awful goo on his face, but that only seemed to make it worse as it clung to his gloved hands. His cries were muffled as he couldn't even part his lips to scream. Cadmus's eyes bounced around the rooftop, looking for something—anything—to pry off the goo when his eyes landed on Dia, now a stationary target with herself trapped by her own attack. It was an opportunity he couldn't give up!
Clapping his hands together, the call of his attack sounded more like the moans of the undead, but he managed to send a second wave of bouncing cranberries in the direction of Dia.

Unoderi the mental image of this entire fight is hilarious omg She was a sitting duck. All she could do was watch in horror as his hands rose again, the second wave of summoned berries raining down on top of her as she continued to struggle against her own gummy goo. It was hard to tell which was worse, the painful thumps as each berry hit or the ricochet effect they had as each berry exploded across her, splattering and spraying her in sticky, sweet red. Her face was covered, her beautiful hair was growing matted and clumped, there wasn't an exposed bit of skin or cloth that hadn't met a sticky, berry-covered fate. Slowly but surely, the goop engulfing her hand began to dissolve and she yanked her snared hand into freedom. The struggle to raise herself up against the fruity attack was difficult, but she managed to claw and crawl far enough away to find merciful escape from Cadmus's well-aimed magic. "You little...little brat!" All she could taste was berry. All she could see was berry. Berry was everywhere and she needed to get away from all the berry. One jump to the right and she was off, doing her best to run as far away from the chibi as she could, because right now ALL she wanted was a shower.

"Mhmm hmm hmm mm hm! Mmhm— Hmm?! Mhmm mhm mmm hm!"
While his words were indecipherable still, when Cadmus noticed Dia fleeing, what followed were a string of words not appropriate for a thirteen year old's mouth. He started after her, trying to keep up with her pace by jumping between roofs and kicking off the ground with amiable speed. Unfortunately, unless she stopped moving, he couldn't his last attack in. And, by the looks of it, he couldn't, because he fell.
"Hmm?!"
Exactly two stories.
"Mhmm, hmm— s**t!"
Cadmus lost his footing at the edge of a rain gutter and went tumbling. Thankfully, he didn't suffer any broken bones, as there was a conveniently placed dumpster right below that caught his fall and served to be a good end to his trash talking.
Then, as if he were the evil villain for a change, shook a balled fist and said, "I'll get you! I'll get you!"
Ghouliboo rofl we can end it there if you want!
