Where would I be if I were a cat?A fish market came to find. The docks. A creamery. Someplace with milk and cows. Mice. Not necessarily any place that was super easy to find in Destiny City. Not because DC didn’t have fish markets or places that sold dairy products, but it was sort of a choice between a dozen equally likely places with no way of telling which would be better. Eros paced along the the alley behind the international market she’d found and wrinkled her nose at the smells that wafted from it. It was even worse back here than it was inside the place, but it wasn’t like she could be wiggling her sparkly a** out there where everyone could see her and hope to not draw attention. She was fast getting tired of this fruitless search, but when Aegir had mentioned a cat being the one to craft the device Xenotime had demanded information, the little senshi had thought she’d earn herself a little extra credit by finding said cat. No dice so far though. Damn it. If there was a cat here, she was damn good at being invisible; an annoying quality all cats seemed to have. A few running steps and Eros leaped for the next building, giving herself some altitude and a bit of clearer air to breath… so she could pull out her tiny pipe and set up a hit. The smoke was blew as it wafted upwards on a sigh. Maybe she could try that place on 5th she’d passed the other day. It was tiny, barely a hole in the wall, but maybe that would appeal to a cat over the bigger, more crowded places?

It wasn't every day that Marcasite found herself by the fish market and it's docks, but tonight she had decided to venture somewhere more unconventional when she patrolled. Really, she shouldn't have been running out alone, but she was stubborn and eager to test her capabilities now that she was fully recovered.
Boots clicked against the concrete as she walked, back straight and chin held high as she felt for those pesky energy signatures that marked trouble.
Gloved hands tapped against her thighs as she walked, bright blue eyes shifting this way and that past the unfamiliar stalls and buildings she'd never seen before.
She felt the senshi aura before she found the flume of smoke that coiled in the night air. Blinking, dark grin spread across Marcasite's lips as she found her way to the roof.
"Tsk, don't have anything better to do?"whimsical blue sorry for how long this took ;;

Eros turned with a smile as someone joined her, trying to look relaxed and friendly. She was getting better at sensing power signatures and she’d felt this one growing closer, but one of the similarities between cops and wild animals was not to run when you saw one. It only prompted them to chase you, if they hadn’t been inclined to start with. She had been finding that similar ideas could be applied to Negaverse agents. Like not being wary around them. Wild animals were unpredictable, as were just about all run-ins she’d had like this. Getting approached seemed to come from the more aggressive sorts too. “Eeeeeeh, hello Lovely!” She called as she spread her hands. “Just taking a little break, minding my own business like a good girl. See?” Reaching, the small senshi displayed the grapevine stick pin she had through her collar, hoping this was one of the ones who recognized what it meant. “Really not looking for trouble or to cause any… so if it’s okay with you, I’ll just be on my way, no harm, no foul. Yeah?”

The senshi seemed unguarded when she greeted Marcasite and the white haired woman cocked her head, observing the woman's petite frame. She didn't recognize the pin and merely arched a pale brow in response.
"Is that supposed to impress me?" She drawled sounding bored was her fan was summoned into her hand. "I have a hard time believing the whole good girl front you're trying to put out." Senshi always seemed to have something up their gloves and she didn't trust them.
Never had, never would, really.
"'Fraid I can't just let you leave," she clucked her tongue as though she was disappointed. Xenotime would like it if she brought some starseeds home, surely. "Gonna have to ask for a dance, maybe. So, on your feet, before I change my mind."

There was no recognition, and though her smile never faltered, Eros felt her stomach sink. No recognition meant to agreement to honor. No agreement meant her supposed protection was about as nebulous as a fart in the wind. What good is your protection, Quartz, if I'm still fighting people off, for ******** sake?A fan appeared and Eros flinched despite herself, the flash of metal a warning sign even if the bored tone seemed otherwise. A stretching of her senses didn't yeild anything productive as far as possible rescue went, the night as still as... well, the grave. If she were being morbid about ******** afraid I don't dance without music playing, Pretty. Preferably with a couple of drinks in me. So please, by all means, change your mind." She said as she eased her stance with as subtle shift of her weight. "I don't really do well when people wave pointy things at me." And then the small senshi turned and fled without a backwards look. Her boots crunched and scraped as she took off, settling into a rapid beat and a rattle of kicked up pebbles and debri as she passed. She resisted the urge to look back, knowing there was no way the officer wasn't giving chase. It was far from an ideal situation but her mind was already whirling with possible scenarios and solutions to the trouble that had found her. Down to the street...? Up second...? Maybe duck down into an empty shop and power down quick... or find SOMEONE on the friendly side.The options didn't look particularly promising, but if it saved her skin, Eros was not going to pass it up. The edge of the roof loomed and without thought, the rainbow senshi leaped out into the opening and let herself drop into the alley below.

"I'm sure we could work something out," Marcasite quipped, one pale brow arching as her grin sharpened. Clearly the senshi was uneasy, frightened perhaps which made things more fun. She liked a good bantering session or a chase.
After what had happened last year, she was itching for a good round of payback.
The second the senshi took off, the captain was chasing after her. Little rocks and loose bits of gravel were kicked up as she ran, adrenaline pumping in her veins as she moved. Without a thought, the metal fan was snapped shut, then aimed and lobbed at the pretty rainbow-haired senshi who was doing her best to lose her.
If it made contact, it wouldn't stop her but maybe it would slower her down enough. Marcasite knew she could teleport if she wanted, but where was the fun in that.
"Come on rainbow, I just wanna play~"

Boots hit the pavement hard, vibrating up slender legs to make Eros grimace. It wasn't a clean or pretty landing, but she didn't have time to worry about it. Not with potential Death coming from above. Scrambling, the super pushed herself into motion again and pelted down the alley as she heard the other land behind her. There was a sound of something whooshing through the air before it connected with the back of her head and sent her stumbling, knees buckling to send her into a sprawling slide. Eros squealed as she fell, arms out to catch herself. She twisted onto her back, a hand clapped to the back of her head and the other thrust out between them to ward off further attacks. "Stop! Stop, please, ********... Come on! I'm on your side. ********." She babbled. "I'm friends with some of your generals! You can ask them! See this pin?" She grabbed for her lapel, holding it out with a shakey hand. "Quartz gave me this! I feed him information, ok? You can ask him! Or... or Xenotime! I know her too! Please... they can tell you I'm not lying!"

Marcasite was loving the adrenaline of the chase and couldn't help but think how far she had come in her short time in the negaverse. Adding a pretty little senshi to her list of accomplishments was tempting, especially when she watched the woman go down with a grin.
She was screeching, trying to ward her off with a single palm and a lapel she still didn't recognize.
"I am unfamiliar with this...Quartz." Their list of officers was rather large and it was improbable for her to be acquainted with all of them. If this senshi worked for them, why wasn't the information more readily available?
The second name she sputtered however, did get her attention and Marcasite knelt before the senshi and pushed her hand away, reaching for her jaw. "What relationship do you have with Xenotime?"

Her hand was shoved aside and Eros jerked as her chin was seized. She didn't fight it, though her body was tense and her pink eyes wide. It wasn't an outright hostile gesture, and as with the general she had name dropped, acquiescing to being manhandled seemed the best way to go about not provoking actual harm to her person. It was good the name had finally stopped her and in the back of her head, Eros wondered what the general was to this woman. Thank god she was something, anyway. "Well, I, you know... I met her, and I agreed to get info for her. Its what I do!" She said as she sprawled on the ground, hardly daring to breathe. "She wanted to know about that time when the senshi captured a whole lot of officers and tortured them, so I've been asking around about it and this one senshi she said was there. It sounded really important, that I get that info for her." The senshi swallowed and wet her lips, trying a small, ingratiating smile. "She'd probably be kinda upset if you killed me, right? And didn't let me get the info for her? Yeah?" Long shot, but maybe.

Blue eyes narrowed as she examined the rainbow-haired woman's face. Apparently she was pleased with what she saw and she let go, stepping back and adjusting her gloves as the senshi continued to prattle on with whatever information she had.
Senshi informant. Something about that didn't sit quite right with the captain, but she could tell that it had more to do with being outside of the information loop than the fact that they existed.
Of course there were those that could have been considered to be 'double agents'. Wasn't that merely part of the game?
Quartz meant nothing to her but Xenotime....Xenotime was someone she was close to and perhaps there was part of her that was startled that she didn't know this informant. Then again, both woman were busy wrapped up in different branches and lives that left them with little time to spend together. Why would they talk about business when they could have focused on pleasure instead when they weren't working?
"If you work for her, then maybe we should get to know each other better." Marcasite said after a moment of consideration. When she smiled it was almost too sweetly. "Why don't we sit and chat about all of that information you're working so hard for?" To her credit, she looked genuinely apologetic when she reached out to brush knuckles against Eros' cheek. "Sorry about all of this, looks like our information tracks are all messed up." whimsical blue can probs wrap/fade out in next post or two~

A deep breath lifted the brooch on the senshi's chest and she let it out in a long exhale over the rings through her lip. Looked like the crisis was averted, for now. 'Xenotime' seemed to be the magic word with this one and she was willing to use and abuse what little influence she held there, if it meant she walked away from this with nothing more than some scuffs and bruises. The smile was a green light and Eros returned it tentatively, putting on her best cute face. The kind that involved her teeth on her lower lip and magenta eyes looking up through her lashes. She didn't try to get up, not right away, and was rewarded with the officer reaching out with a gentler touch this time. Maybe we should get to know each other better. Kind of an abrupt 180, but gift horses and all. "That's all right." She said airily, waving a slender hand. "Happens all the time." Her head tilted, chin lifting as her cheek was stroked, lashes lowering. "I'll tell you whatever you want to hear, sweetheart. Or anything else you want me to do. Your wish is my command, after all. That's the deal."

It was easier for Marcasite to smile sweetly at senshi who was an informant of her General's than it was for a senshi she would prefer to deal with permanently. Luck was in Eros' favor that she had found the magic word for the pale haired woman, who's blue eyes were watching the way she made herself with an interest that might not have been present before.
"I think I have a few ideas of how we can spend the time." Her voice had dropped lower and she reached to hold the woman by her waist. The hand on her face shifted to run her thumb across her lip.
"And I know just the place," she announced, leaning in to practically breathe it in rainbow haired woman's ear.
Marce didn't leave room for protest or argument before she, literally, whisked her away.
