A Dark Mirror senshi wandered around in the park at night, feeling his way through the dense thicket of trees. He couldn't really see, but he didn't feel much like observing his surroundings just then more than sensing them through touch. It could have been considered a sort of training, perhaps, but Ptolemaeus also wanted to experience the world in a new way. What was it like to be a shadow, drifting in and out of darkness like his mirrorwraith?
Also, while he himself was unable to see very well, he also knew that with the dim lighting of the park and being immersed among the thicket of park trees, he would be harder to spot by civilians he was seeking to drain the energy of. Other powered beings were a different matter, of course, but he figured if they were able to sense his signature, he'd be able to sense theirs as well.

Her Chaotic energy was humming through her head right now. It felt like all the darkness in her was going to explode from her eye. Eris gripped it as she stood a top a building next to the park and let out a few choice curse words. Her long, black hair blew in the hot, sticky summer breeze that did nothing to cool down her over heated neck. Eris, the Corrupted senshi of Discord was slowly going insane. She was well aware of that. She had voices whispering to her when she powered up. She had splitting headaches at all hours of the day and yet she still managed to land a job and do it well. Of course hiding her symptoms wasn't easy, but she had to do it. She didn't have anyone to fall back upon. No,the dark senshi kept to herself and stayed in her house if she wasn't shopping or at work. No need to go out with friends she didn't have. Even if she had them she would probably prefer them to come over for drinking and gossip rather than going out for boys or something like that. Something, however, caught her attention. There, in the park, was a signature. Chaos, but different than her own or an agent. A Dark Mirror senshi more than likely. She moved into the park, landing on the sidewalk path between two pools of light cast by the poles. "I feel you..."

And here he'd thought he would have had a pretty event-free evening. Evidently not if the new signature entering the park was going to interfere. It certainly wasn't an Order signature, but it didn't seem like a Dark Mirror like himself, either. Curious, he stepped toward the edge of the trees where he heard the voice of another powered being; a female senshi from the looks of things. This signature was something twisted and different, though...dark.
"Interesting choice of words," he chuckled, stepping out from the trees. He didn't quite feel like stepping into the blinding light of the street lamps just after leaving the darkness his eyes had been adjusted to, but the least he could do was show himself. The other scout had done that much, at least, but she made Ptolemaeus wary. She was of a higher level than him and, though they both had chaotic energy signatures, he couldn't be sure the Negaverse wouldn't attack a Dark Mirror.

Eris's head whipped around as her youma eye narrowed into a slit, trying to see through the dark without luck. It made her head throb and sweat bead on her forehead from something besides the summer heat. The almost Lolita like corrupt senshi continued to circle slowly. This one was close. A boy. She assumed they were all boys, not men. Not yet. He felt so new. "You're out of your league, child," she quipped, finally figuring out the direction he was. Though she couldn't see him, Eris stood and stared out at the darkness, waiting for the dark mirror senshi to emerge from his hiding spot. Gloved hands fisted at her sides and then relaxed. "You might as well come out."

The usually jovial senshi's brows shot up and his smile faltered before broadening into a vicious grin. "Child?" he repeated. "I may just be a teenager with basic senshi powers, cupcake, and I may even be out of my league like you say. But that doesn't mean I'm immature." Whether or not she'd meant to, the stranger had struck upon one of the three things that annoyed Ptolemaeus. He despised being compared to or associated with children in the slightest.
Wondering if she really couldn't see him unless he stepped into the light, he regarded her face to catch sight of her odd eyes. Did they have something to do with why she couldn't see him that well? Shifting his weight to the back of his heels, he crossed his arms over his chest. "I'd love to, angel-face, but since I'm really not sure what your intentions are and we only just met, I think you can understand why I'd be cautious about the situation. After all, you did just say I'm out of my league. Sounds like I'll need all the advantages I can get if things are going to turn nasty."

Even that reaction was childlike. Eris's lips stayed quirked up in an amused way as he talked. He seemed to love to do that. Both eyes were focused on the obnoxiously bright senshi and his term of insults were condescending, but not much else. He wouldn't get under her skin that way. "Come now, little one..." She quickly made her way over to him. Her footsteps swift, silent, thanks to magic and practice. She was wanting to get in close. To test this one. DMCs weren't the enemy exactly, but she wanted to figure out what he was made of. How would he react to the enemy suddenly being in his face? That skill, knowing how to handle that, would make or break a senshi really fast. "What advantages do you have?"

"'Little one'?"
That term just made him laugh. She appeared to be around 5' - even shorter than his younger sister - and he was 6'3". Not that she could see. Maybe it was about time he show her who she was talking to even if he doubted that would change her outlook of him.
Perhaps she was taunting him for the purpose of getting him to show himself, but after a few minutes of consideration, what could be the harm? He could always step back into the shadows if necessary. And at the very least, maybe she would refrain from using terms like 'child' and 'little one'.
Ptolemaeus uncrossed his arms, but before he could take more than a single step forward, she was already coming at him. He couldn't hear her, but he sensed her signature draw near. Seemed like she'd been tired of waiting.
He blinked rapidly in the dark as he felt the presence of a face suddenly very close to his own. But then his grin returned. It was just so funny to think that usually he was the one getting up in other people's space and making them uncomfortable, both in and out of his powered form. It was rare the situation was reversed on him.
"Well, for one, I know how to appreciate the closeness of proximity," he answered, his smile soft as he slowly reached up both his hands to tentatively find her face. "I relish it."Peppermint Coffee ((So sorry for the delay! OTL Not sure if you're still up for continuing this, but if not, feel free to let me know!))
