Themisto hadn't expected something like this. There was a lot of ridiculous bullshit that happened in this war, like some pink-haired Nega a*****e summoning a boatload of basically-demons into the middle of the city.
He was out on a patrol with Itsuki tucked in his fuku when the two of them were passing by a home furnishing store in the middle of the night. In the window was displayed an example of a stylish bedroom, complete with fully dressed twin-sized bed with overflowing pillows and comforters, a small area run, dresser and full-length mirror. It was that mirror, catching Themisto's reflection, that reached out with its sinister power and pulled them both inside.
When Themisto came to, he and Itsuki were trapped in a room without any escape.
"WHAT THE EVERLOVIN' HELL IS THIS!?"

Not long after found Sailor Thisbe walking down the same street. She'd made no plans to meet up with her fellow Sailor Slacker that night-- as a matter of fact, she likely wouldn't have bothered powering up at all had Eta, Mauvian to Sailor Corvus, not shown up at her apartment. The Mau had followed her around town that evening as she ran a few errands, heading into a diner at one point just for the chance to escape the silver tabby for a period of time. --- It hadn't worked all that well. Eta was, if anything, incredibly determined and she'd waited for the blonde to come out before following after her again, remaining relentless until Thisbe had agreed to power up and patrol with her. " Honestly, Thisbe. If you would just let me borrow your pen... It will only take a moment to perform the upgrade. I promise." Eta trotted after Thisbe, able to keep up if only because the Senshi of Woe wasn't honestly trying all that hard to get away from her. If she had decided to, well... --- "That's the problem, Eta. I don't want to let you borrow my pen. It's mine and it's fine just the way it is right now. I'm still getting the hang of things and you're going to try and shove more responsibility off on me? What about Corvus?" She paused in front of the shop front window, lowering her hood as she turned her head to glance into the mirror. It was angled just right in the display that she could see herself and.... Wait. Something wasn't right. "Eta... Et.... Hush a second, alright? There's...." Without any additional warning she and the guardian were drawn into the mirror, pulled through to a space on the other side. "Oh no....."

"Uwaaah~! Themi-chan, we have visitors!" One particular super senshi was asleep against a stark white wall, having come to the conclusion that he couldn't claw his way out of the room they were trapped in. The sudden noise of someone being deposited into the room with them, along with Itsuki's chatter, awoke him suddenly. With a start, Themisto nearly fell over as he scrambled to stand and try to help the new prisoner. "Ey, are you.... oh s**t, Thisbe?! It got you too?" And a cat, apparently. Itsuki was all too thrilled to see another senshi and another Mauvian. Once Thisbe was determined to be unhurt, Itsuki wasted no time loving on her and introducing himself to her Mauvian companion. "Watashi wa Itsuki desu~! Welcome to... wherever this is!" "Itsuki, seriously, we're trapped in mirror bullshit. How can you be happy about this??" The cat trilled despite Themisto's obvious distress. "...because now we have someone to talk to! Sheesh, Themi-chan, you're such a pessimist."

"I'm fine, I think..." She groaned as Themisto helped her to her feet, flashing her fellow senshi as best a smile as she could muster. "This isn't exactly what I had in mind when I left the apartment this evening. I--" Her train of thought was interrupted by the back and forth between Themisto and the other Mauvian in the room. Itsuki, she presumed, based on the introduction and Them's question following. "You don't have to worry about being the welcoming comittee when you don't know where you're welcoming someone to. I'm Thisbe. Grumpy cat over there is Eta." --- "If you'd just let me borrow your pen all of this could have been avoided." Eta muttered as she began stalking around the room that they had been sucked into via the mirror. She'd managed to gather small bits and pieces of information in regards to the senshi that walked through mirrors, but not enough to be confident about anything in regards to where they were or what was going on. If she hadn't been determined to coax Thisbe into some sort of responsibility she would have been home, not here. If Thisbe had just listened then neither of them would be here. If.... If... --- "Well you might as well take it now. Fat lot of good any of it is going to do me stuck here." Thisbe huffed, drawing the pen out of where she'd tucked it between her corset and her bodice earlier to toss it down on the floor. It clattered against whatever the floor was made of leaving her to cross her arms over her chest as she glanced around. "What is this place, Themisto? How did you get here?"

Themisto sighed deeply and shook his head, clearly embarrassed about the cat. "Nah, it's... he's real obnoxious sometimes. Too happy, considering we're stuck in this god knows where." The senshi gestured widely to the featureless room they'd been trapped in for quite some time. "I've kicked it, tried using the ghosts but that did eff-all, there's no doors in here either." Oh, good, Thisbe had the cat with her. Maybe she'd been less annoying. Itsuki seemed overjoyed to see the two of them, and immediately approached Eta. "Watashi wa Itsuki desu~" cried he, bowing to the other Mauvian. He assumed she had been awakened longer than he had - all of the Mauvians he met definitely were. For whatever reason, Itsuki seemed unphased by the isolation. "It's a pleasure to meet you both!!" Themisto crossed his arms and leaned on the wall. "Dunno what the hell all this s**t is, but we got sucked in through a mirror. I know this one mirror-walker guy, Ptolemaeus. If he's behind this, I'm going to kick the hell out of his a** when I see him again. Or any of those mirror-walker creepers." Itsuki's ears perked at Thisbe's last question. "We were out patrolling and looking for snacks and Themi-chan stopped to look in a mirror and do his hair---" "I DID NOT.""--and then the mirror lit up and POOF! Here we are."

Lucifer Force Sorry this took so long. ;; "Mirror-walker guy-- Wait. You mean the senshi that aren't the creeptastic corrupt ones but still give off a really awful vibe?" Her brow quirked as she looked in Themisto's direction before turning back to the wall. She took a moment to run her hands along it, trying to figure out whether or not there were any seams or latches-- this had to be a trick, right? Stars, why did she suddenly feel so tired? "How long have you been here? Do you think we're prisoners or just stuck?" She had so many questions and she wasn't really sure how many of them, if any, Themisto would be able to answer. ----- Eta bounded after the pen as it clattered across the floor. The slender feline pounced on it to stop it from skidding any further, making a mental note to chastise Sailor Thisbe for being so careless with her henshin pen at some point. It was all about responsibility and it really was about time Thisbe took on some, making her all the more determined to complete the upgrade before Thisbe could change her mind. "Itsuki, have you ever upgrade a henshin pen before? Even if you haven't, it's been some time before I've done anything more than produce one... I could use a paw, if you wouldn't mind."

Skye Starrfyre No worries, darling! Life happens! Themisto nodded with enthusiasm. Thisbe knew what she was talking about. "Yeah, they're the ones. They can jump through mirrors and whatever nonsense. My sister knows a lot about them too, I guess she was kinda there when they, you know..." He waved his hand around, searching for the right word. " Happened. Totally crazy." It was beginning to be difficult to find certain words. Napping sounded like a great idea. He shook his head, settling back into his somewhat comfortable position sitting up against the wall. "...dunno. There's no window in here, and no clock... my phone's on the fritz... I hope not a lot time. I got s**t to do, ya know? Life to live. I've done everything I can think of, 'cept throwin' Itsuki at it..." The cat didn't seem to notice the threat of becoming a projectile against his will. Itsuki padded near Eta and sat down once the pen had been saved from skidded around the room like a ping pong ball. "Hai~! I upgraded Themi-chan when we first met. He was surprised. I'll help! What would you like me to do, Eta-san~?"

Thisbe paced around the room slowly-- She thought she'd paced around the room slowly, at least, but when she glanced back to Themisto it was to realize that she'd only taken a few steps. Ugh. Movement was hard. Effort was exhausting. The Senshi of Woe trudged back over to the other senshi and flopped down beside him as though she were nothing more than a jointed doll. "Sleeping is probably an awful idea... Right? We don't want to just fall asleep in a strange place. Especially not in a strange mirror place?" ------ Eta rocked on her paws before turning a somersault in the air, producing a small tool kit that she usually had for safe keeping in the wonderful, magical space that was meant for things when she had no pockets. She wasn't certain that she would need any of them, thinking hard and trying to remember exactly how to begin the alterations to Sailor Thisbe's pen. "Wonderful! That is incredibly good news, Itsuki. If-- If you wouldn't mind, perhaps you could remind me where to start? I'm certain it will all come back from there."

Skye Starrfyre We can probably wrap here pretty soon! Themisto lulled in Thisbe's general direction. He looked exhausted, dark circles beneath his eyes from struggling to stay awake as best he could. "...I dunno, man... If you want, we can sleep in shifts, you know? That way, s**t goes down, one of us wakes the other one up. Itsuki doesn't seem tired, but... dude's bonkers, so who even knows." Itsuki seemed unphased by Eta's foggy memory on upgrades. He had recently read about them on the Headquarters computer shortly before upgrading Themisto. The toolkit was duly noted, and Itsuki made a mental list of things he should probably get to work on if he were to be a better Guardian Cat. He padded to the toolkit for closer inspection. "No problem, Eta-san! We'll need Thisbe-san's henshin pen. You focus on it and feel their starseed and put all your energy into it~ I usually shout APGUREIDO!!!! but that's optional, I think. Spunk is important." The cat sat back on his hind legs and covered his mouth with a paw for a yawn. "Oof, Eta-san, are you sleepy too?"

" Incredibly tired, Itsuki." Drained was likely a better word for it, given she could feel her eyes trying to close as her slender, silver body swayed on her paws. She resisted, knowing just how important it would be to take this moment to upgrade Sailor Thisbe's pen-- Cosmos only knew if she would get the opportunity to do so again, after all. Depending on what sort of danger they might have been in, Sailor Thisbe would need the additional boost to Super anyways. The silvery tabby worked as quickly as she could, given the quickly depleting pool of personal energy she had to work with. She took full advantage of having another Mauvian alongside her, reassured by Itsuki's exuberance despite knowing he had to be just as tired as she was feeling-- likely more so, depending on how long he and Themisto had been here prior to the arrival of she and Thisbe. Eta had enough time to stash her tools and drag the newly upgraded pen towards Sailor Thisbe before the room began to shift. "Thisbe... Thisbe. Themisto. Wake up! Itsuki, the room. Thisbe, take this... Oh, butterscotch." She registered enough to see Thisbe's fingers wrap around the henshin pen as they began to fall, loosing track of her other companions as she tumbled down through shattering mirror glass. Whatever happened next, Eta had done her job. She had upgraded Thisbe's pen, catching a flash of light as they tumbled down that she hoped was the Senshi of Woe tapping into what power she could to prepare her for whatever was waiting below. "Stars guide us all." Lucifer Force Fin, if you're alright? Otherwise you can wrap with another post of your own and we'll call this one done. <3 Thank you so much for your patience with me, darling.
