Gathering energy was easier when it was done around places where there were more people. Of course more people around meant more people looking to make their quota for the month. And while Jet was fine with other officers doing their work, he was trying to make quota for himself and Aquamarine, whom he felt responsible for, as it was Jet’s fault that the other was even in the Negaverse in the first place.
He waited quietly on the top of a roof in the city, waiting and watching as the people below moved about. When they were drunk or doped up on drugs, it was always easier to drain them. Even after they passed out, most of the time they ended up not even remembering that they were attacked.
There were times Jet considered taking the wallets of those he drained, if only to give himself a little extra spending money, but if only for his brother’s memory, he reluctantly kept his hands clean. At least from stealing.
Another aura of an officer seemed to be close by, and Jet looked up to see if maybe it was someone he knew, or if they were just there to meet their quota as well.
“Lieutenant,” he greeted softly, turning so he could sit on the ledge of the building, his back to the city.

She'd been out for pretty much the same reason. Quota...but she also had been out for her usual reasons. Fights. Tests of strength and limits so that she could find ways of surpassing them. Also, thinking. She thought about that senshi, Remus, and how good it had felt to be literally holding his life in her hand, and only by her choice had he been allowed to live. Every time she thought about it, it gave her a rush. She'd been mulling over these thoughts, and had subconsciously started to make her way towards the other signature without really thinking about it. It was just the auto-pilot of her curious nature, but as she hoisted herself up over the ledge and landed on the top, she was focused on the present once more. "Captain." She returned, her Norwegian accent thicker from not having spoken in a while all night. Harmotome then didn't bother being subtle about giving the young man a speculative once over, assessing. He looked pretty young---possibly right around her age, actually, and the thought kind of surprised her. Since being inducted into the Negaverse, she hadn't met another agent around her age, yet. The lieutenant strolled over to him, resting her fists on her hips. Once she was close enough, more than close for a conversation, actually, she leaned towards him, a brow quirked. "How old are yuu?"

At first, Jet was assuming that she would just go on her way. That was usually what happened with officers crossed paths and realized a certain area was already being watched by someone else, but this Lieutenant decided she wanted to not only stick around, but move even closer to him.
Jet didn’t move when she leaned in, although he was sure the bewildered furrowing of his brows became all the more pronounced as she did so. He hadn’t seen her around before, so he assumed that she was new. Obviously. She clearly didn’t know anything about personal space.
“That’s none of your concern,” he nearly sputtered when she asked him how old he was, almost offended by the question. What did she care how old he was?? “Don’t you have orders to be following?” he tried to change the subject, although it probably didn’t help that he didn’t have orders, himself.

Her expression was already lively with interest, but it became more so when the other spluttered and got defensive. Harmotome's eyes lidded, and her lips started to pull into a sly grin. "I am making it my concern." She told him, very matter of factly. "So? How old?" The lieutenant than idly rolled her shoulders, dismissing the subject of orders with a flippant wave of her hand. "Te usual, ja? I have already met quota, so tere is no pressing job to be done tonight." Her grin widened as she looked at him, which clearly indicated that this abundance of time she had could be dedicated to harassing him. "Vhat is your name?"

He scowled at the woman as she continued to pester him. Well, she wasn't so much a woman as she was an obnoxious girl. Why his age was of such interest to her, he didn't know, but he thought it might have something to do with the fact that she seemed to be close to his age.
Still, that was no reason for her to ask him, a superior officer, and he scowled all the more when she didn't seem to want to relent.
"Jet," he at least replied to what his name was, although he had no interest in hers. She was already obnoxious as it was, and just for that, he wanted nothing to do with her.
He scooted away from her, against the edge of the building, wanting to put some space between them before pushing away from the edge and taking a few steps across the building. Maybe if he didn't look at her, she wouldn't follow him.

It didn't work. The lieutenant waltzed after him, popping up next to his side again. She was still peering at him, grinning. "Jet, eh? How long have yuu been in Negaverse, Jet?" Rank didn't really mean a lick to the girl. It was just a ladder for her to climb, and it didn't mean automatic respect for those who were higher than her. "And are yuu sixteen, too?"

Jet gave the girl a look of distress as she followed after him. What the hell did she want? To just harass him? His hands clenched into fists, staggering backwards to try and get away from her, but she seemed intent on following him.
“Why don’t you read my file?” he hissed through his teeth, giving her a glare as she continued to be a pest. “I’ve been an officer since a week before I turned fifteen,” he grumbled, hoping that giving quick answers would get her to leave him alone.
He veered to the right, hoping to lose her around a water tank.

Harmotome blinked, caught by surprise. "Tere are files?" She echoed, the surprise evident in her voice. "... Vere?" While she was curious, she wouldn't go read them. Reading was a waste of time! She'd rather be out doing things. "Oh? So if yuu are sixteen, ten yuu have been agent for a year?" The lieutenant was quick on her feet, and darted after the boy. Really, him running just made it worse. It awakened that natural urge she had to chase challenging things.

It was very hard not to roll his eyes at the girl, so he didn’t bother trying not to. If she didn’t know how to access the files, then she must be extremely new and maybe no one wanted to tell her where to find them. For good reason, probably.
“Yes, I have,” he hissed as she followed after him, glaring miserably at her persistence, and after lamely circling the water tank once, he moved to jump from one roof to another, hoping to lose her when she realized he had no interest in talking to her.
“Go away,” he growled over his shoulder, seriously not in the mood for whatever these games were she was playing. Maybe if he didn’t say much to her she would get bored.

She let out a genuinely impressed sound, and was like his shadow. She jumped from roof top to roof top on his heel. "I have only been in for a few veeks!" She told him, as if that wasn't obvious. "How did yuu go about becoming a captain?" Harmotome asked, eagerly wanting to know. "I vant to become stronger, quick!"

Oh, it was definitely obvious, and he turned to give her another glare to show that he really, really didn’t appreciate her following him around.
“Good for you,” he growled with sarcasm, finally turning and drawing his two knives from subspace so he could swing a blade in her direction as a warning. “I left superior officers alone and…” he paused, trying to think of something that would get her to leave him alone, and maybe go to try and become a Captain. “I killed a bunch of senshi. Like, twenty.”

Harmotome just smiled at the glare, and trained reflex had her arching away from the swung blade with ease. A dark brow was arched as she glanced at the blades, though she still didn't seem put off or threatened. She couldn't wait until her stupid fork actually turned into something threatening as well... "Oh?" She looked up from his knives to his face, speculatively. "Yuu killed tenty, yuu say?" Somehow...she found that a little hard to believe. She shifted her weight to one leg, and placed her hands on her hips. "Also, as a superior officer, is it not your responsibility to help oversee those below you, in rank, if tey seek guidance?" Not that the lieutenant necessarily wanted guidance or help, but it was a thing she'd twist to get what she wanted---which currently was to hang around and learn more about Jet.
