Gevuadan still didn't have a phone. He had been hesitant to go after his wonder. In fact, if it wasn't for being a General before, it would be any wonder why he was even deciding to direct any sort of team in the first place. As it was, he was a rookie in the terms of knights, but a very seasoned veteran in fighting and information of the war. He knew how this all worked, and considering the general lazy chaos of the side of Order, he knew he could do better, but he didn't want to just take anyone in.
Despite this, he did have to ask Ganymeade to call up on her phone and send texts out to the few knights she had - which honestly was more than Gevaudan knew. So he scheduled a time late at night in a courtyard of a Victorian home. The people were gone and he knew how to turn off the motion activated lights. Inside the garden, he waited for the other knights to show up and hoped they were at least capable enough to not be tailed and to also know how to hop over the building's roof to get inside. If he saw a struggling power signal not in the courtyard yet, he'd have to make a trip to get them.
He checked his watch as it was almost midnight.

He had slipped out of the house, leaving a note in the kitchen stating that he was going to a friends - they needed some help. It was the best, and most believable, thing he could do in order to get out and back in without his parents questioning things if they found him to be gone. Once he'd gotten out of the apartment building he had found a nice secluded place to power up before pulling his coat back on and checking the directions on his phone once more. His cell phone was again coming in handy as it helped him to locate the house with ease.
It was easy enough to get onto the property but the roof top hop was new to him, hell being a knight was still new to him, but he did manage it and got himself into the courtyard with a jarring landing.
Bundled in a coat his uniform was impossible to see as he'd gone with a long, almost to the ground, puffy coat which covered up the whole uniform. The only thing which pointed to who he was, aside from the hair which was normally like this, were the markings on his face and the apparent everything proof make up around his eyes.
Glancing about the courtyard his dark eyes landed on the one who had called this meeting, or so he assumed, and that was where he headed.

Getting out of the house at midnight was nothing new to her. She often left in the dark to go take photos of the night sky or something like that for her Instagram followers. Tonight, however, when she got to a secluded spot she ended up power up looked at the message again and bit down on her bottom lip. A meeting. Tikal took a deep breath and made her way toward the location with the help well, feeling energies. She was getting better at it, but it was definitely a skill she was going to have to practice and use. Jumping... that high made her pause in her steps, heels digging into the ground as she bit down on her thumbnail before glancing around. She felt Order energies here and just frowned hard. She didn't really power up all that often, and she certainly didn't test her abilities or powers because, let's face it, she knew only Babylon and Ganymede, and she really didn't know them. Was there a way to get around jumping up? No? Oh, well... She jumped up and barely manage to land on her feet when she got to the courtyard, yelping and waving her arms a bit before she staggered and got her balance. "Well, that.. wasn't the most graceful of ways to enter," she muttered to herself.

Recently moved in with a long time friend and away from home it was easier than ever for him to sneak out. Then again now it wasn't really sneaking with the whole independent adult thing, though, a glance to the room opposite the living room door and Markus looked to his phone. Inhaling deeply as he listened for that tell all snore. Jae was asleep, a normally heavy sleeper, the door was pulled too after a power up. Given the attire that Domme donned it wasn't necessary for a jacket and out into the cool night he leapt. Trying like hell to get control of the new strength that surged through body.
It was hard, but after a few stumbles and barely landed jumps Domme closed in on the meeting point. A quick check of his phone to make sure it was right and light blue eyes stared up at yet another jump before him. On a deep sigh a round around the Victorian home was given looking for another option, though no such luck came. Gathering some nerve and some distance backing up Domme made a running jump of it, managing to get up and over into the courtyard on fluke grace.
Beaming from head to toe upon landing he gave a semi-loud little cheer to himself, pretty impressed, and riding the high of thrill. Noticing a moving figure in front he kicked into action, jogging to catch up with the figure. Promptly announcing himself as he neared the garden, "Domme present!" All smiles, he straightened up and eagerly away what was going down. This was exciting after all if completely terrifying.

The knight waited and watched as each member jumped over the roof and landed, some more gracefully than others. It had been a test and he pressed his lips thin as he observed them. Checking his watch, he decided to start.
"Hello. I'm glad you could make it out here at this time of night. I know the vacation is strange but the city and park are always busy and with us all together like this, our auras attract attention." He pointed up to the roof of the house. "I also wanted to see how you all did with environmental obstacles."
"I'll start with introductions. My name is Gevaudan, and like you I am a knight of Ganymeade. I will also be up front with you and say that I was once a Negaverser named General Wolframite. I called you because I am on this side of the fence for good reason and if you have concerns to allow you to address them. This won't work if you are unsure of me and cannot trust me."
He crossed his arms behind his back and stood tall. "I have seen a sad lack of direction and teamwork with the Knights. I don't wish to see those who bare the same symbol as I do to wind up failing, viewed as weak, easy targets, and to die. I want to form a team with each of you if you will allow me so we can better ourselves and to train. To be our own unit and protect each other to ensure our survival and success."
That stated he waited and looked to each of them. "What are your thoughts?"

Glancing to the other two who had shown up he nodded his head once in each knights direction. It was when Gevaudan started to talk that his attention snapped right to the other. Huddling a little more into his coat, glad for the warmth and protection from the cold, and wind, that it offered as his uniform did little in those areas. It would be nice in the summer, maybe, but right now it was no good.
When the floor was open for them to talk he decided to jump in first, might as well, even if he only understood most of what was said. "Is good idea, would be good to work as team - safer. Best we know what we can and can fight. Having support is good in this." If he was going to be apart of a team he was going to need to better his communication skills, so it was easier on the others and himself. He was doing better though, every day he was improving a little bit.
Deciding that since he'd answered the question he might as well now, though it was impolite to be doing it now rather than before he'd spoken his opinion, introduce himself. So he moved so he could face the other three and gave a bow. "Venice of Ganymede." Straightening himself he moved back to where e'd been standing and huddled back into his coat.

Tikal wandered closer and her eyes caught Gevaudan's form easily when he started talking. Her arms crossed under her chest and her head canted to one side as he gave his explanation of the jump and why they were all gathered here. Slowly she started to look around when he mentioned their auras would gather attention and she tensed up quite a lot, honestly. "Ah... Tikal, obviously of Ganymede.. I'm still not sure what I'm doing? I don't know much about being a knight, or whatever. So I think this could be a good thing." She didn't bother bowing or anything, just hugged herself tighter. The teenage girl was a bit uncomfortable with her uniform, with meeting a bunch of strangers who looked a lot more intimidating then Babylon had for some reason. What she wouldn't give to have Babylon here. Someone she knew. "But if this is about the Ganymede knights, shouldn't she be here?"

Domme had went uncharacteristically quiet when the one that called them there spoke. Negaverser. Light blue eyes ran the man speaking, recalling all the things he had known, which wasn't a lot but. But a thought was held away to ask in a moment. Letting someone else go first the dark haired knight tucked a strand behind ear and grinned to the girl of the bunch.
Venice made a good point and the impatient teen was already on his side. Shifting from foot to foot as he watched everyone talking. Couldn't they do some cool knight things now? Hands went to hips and Domme's head craned to one side, nodding to himself as Tikal now spoke. She made a good point, and now he was slightly suspicious, what the heck was this a secret meeting? Formed by a bad guy! Er- Former bad guy, Domme actually started to vibrate in place as his thoughts raced, grin stretching wide.
Now, now he jumped in, "hey yeah where is she?" Not that he really knew much about her anyways. But still he offered his detective work, "are you like...having us meet up in like secret for some reason, I mean listen, I don't know you or really any of you. But I like to trust people till they give me a reason not to.." Then he paused mostly to catch his breath, hands comically almost rubbing at his hairless chin, "but you were kind of a bad guy right?" Then again, he added just to be one the same page, laughing softly, "I mean a team would be awesome though cause I have no frigging clue what I'm doing." Why not be honest the guy had been up front with them.
Suddenly a penny dropped and he blushed while pulling out his phone, "wait a second...Ganymeade texted us.. Heh...my bad." Ok so it wasn't a secret meeting well now he felt dumb.

"It's no secret to her. I talked to her to help me contact you as I do not have to necessary tools since I have yet to go to my Wonder. I purified which means I'm learning the knighthood. However, I have been in this war for years and have fought and trained under the strictest comrades. What better way to train against the enemy than from one that knows them intimately and the extent of their ruthlessness?" He pointed out with a bit of a smile.
"But this isn't one sided. I'm educated myself as well. Despite my rank and power level, I'm new to this side. I'm no expert here. If anything, we learn together. Train together. Try and find our own truths together. I don't expect us to be in agreement over everything. I just want us to know that in battle or on the streets,, we have each other's back. For sparring or discussion."
He then released the hands under his back to bring them to his side, realizing that having them behind him would come off as suspicious.
He looked to Tikal.
"Ganymeade is a princess and a senshi. While we bare her symbol, her powers are not our powers so training with her, at least for now, would not work well. Also, as I said, the larger te energy signal, the more this meeting could become an ambush. If she wishes, she can train with you all to strengthen her combat prowess as well. But we are Knights and our own fraction one way or another and our powers work differently. I'd like to see us as a team as Knights first." As he didn't much care for senshi overall.
His eyes went to the last man who spoke.
"The Negaverse does not see themselves as bad. Many officers joined to protect Earth. Metallia is using them for Its own purposes. There are bad people on either side and good. I've experienced what Order has done saying they are good. Believe me. It wasn't."
"If you are okay with this, I'd like to share my phone number with you and to set up training soars between us. I'd like to switch between us as a group and work up to a whole. I'm also offering soars directly with me as well. Are you okay with this?" He said, looking to wag of them.

Most of what was going on, and being said, was over Venice's poor head as his english skills were simply not that good. He knew something was up, questions being asked and things were being explained. He heard words he knew, which left him guessing a lot and making more assumptions than he liked to ever make. "Good idea to learn from one who was them - was enemy." He spoke up slowly from where he stood. He really hoped he got more to his uniform eventually, what he had now was not acceptable for cold weather at all - he was cold.
"Learn from you and learn together..." Looking to the others, aside from the one who had called the gathering. "All are new here, can use the information to learn - better selves. Learned a little bit from Polaris...saved me from a youma." He said while remembering the white haired woman, he'd gone to her wedding even. He really wouldn't mind running into her again some time in the future, maybe when he was stronger? She'd been the first person he'd told he was a knight to. He had been nervous and scared but he knew what he was thanks to her - he understood some of it. He couldn't imagine a person who was clueless finding out they were a knight or a senshi.
His dark eyes roamed over the other figures gathered here as he thought over everything which had been said, tried to grasp as much as he could, and nodded his head then. "Everyone is good and bad....some more one than other. so makes sense." The whole part about Ganymede and knights and powers had gone over his head, in one ear and out the other. But he had gotten the last part and nodded his head before pulling out his phone. "Number would be good...would like to work with everyone....alone or together."

Tikal made a low noise in her throat before nodding a little bit. Gev was making sense, and it eased some of her guilt, but Tikal remained with a rather passive face. The truth was, she was scared to voice her concerns because she was so new. Then again, it looked like most everyone else was, too. She toyed with her skirt a little more as she listened to the others and let a little smile cross her lips. "I suppose.. it'd be good not to be alone. It's hard." Not that she had powered up much. The weight of being alone was one of the reasons she never did. Her stomach tightened before she relaxed all over again and pushed her hair off her shoulders and tried to gain some kind of confidence. "Okay. It'll be good, training together. I know I'm.. pretty much useless unless it's a verbal fight. So to protect myself and everyone I'm supposed to, I ...need the help. I don't really see much bad with this plan, honestly." She just didn't like keeping Ganymede in the dark about it since she was going to be one of her knights. But. Ganymede texted them. "...I'm okay with this."

Whelp, that made sense, the teen blushed slightly at the counter. From both men but they were right everyone was good and bad in this. You just didn't know, which made all the more sense for him to start making some friends. At the offer a number Domme hesitated, listening as the others agreed then making up his mind. It could work, they could learn from one another and be there for each other. It could work.
Reassuring himself, he was beaming in a confidence that could use a tone down. Hands suddenly rubbed together in excitement and wiggling his already out phone he readied for the number, "alright then, lets do it!" Blues peered up to Gev waiting for instruction and in return his own number would be disturbed out within their small little group. It felt good to know that soon he would have some structure with this new found power and world.

He smiled as he looked across to all of them before moving closer to each. He didn't have his knight communications and it seemed he wasn't the only one. Once phone numbers were given and exchanged, he stepped back.
"I think this is good for a first meeting. If you have any other questions I'll try to answer them or you can call or text me to talk or to meet up. I'd like to schedule a training meetup soon. I'll check with all of when a good time for that is. Again, thank you for being open to this and I hope we can become a strong force together."
Quote: Thats the end of the meeting. Feel f ewe to have your character leave or talk with each other or Gevaudan. A group training will be set up (Youma hunting!) I can also do individual spars and will also be setting up team spars soon. Thank you guys all again!

With a new phone number added to his phone, it seemed his cell phone would become his way of communicating with the powered world, he watched as the process was repeated before Gevaudan stepped back and began to talk again. He could agree with what the other said and nodded his head. If he needed anything he'd ask the other, even though he didn't know if the other would be able to help and answer anything he may ask. it couldn't hurt to ask though for anything which may come up in the future, now was not a time for him to start asking questions. He had a lot of them, a jumbled mess of them really, and he was sure that having some answered would result in more asked. Not something to do tonight,
"All be safe on way home." He said once and bowing quickly he turned and decided it was best to head home. He had a warm bed and soft pillow waiting for him and sleep was a good idea right now. Headed the way he'd come he was able to make the jump over and continued into the night, bundled up in his coat for warmth.
This had been an interesting night and a good meeting, it was nice to see he wasn't the only one.
