Larissa frowned as she looked at the night sky. Sure, it wsan't cloudy and she could see the moon and stars pretty well, but that wasn't what was frustrating her. Lately she had been... questioning herself. At least, when it came to being with the Order. The news as of late had been... troubling to say the least. And while the Order were the "defenders" of life or something, she wondered if they really should care about... "all" life. It had been starting to stress her out, to the point where she sometimes wondered if she could just go out into the wilderness and live under a rock until it was all over, or at least until the world got better... which she wasn't sure would even happen at this point. And she was only a teenager! What could she do to possibly help anything? At this point, what was needed was money, which she didn't have to freely give. It was time to start looking for a job at least. Then perhaps she could donate some of that to feel like she was at least accomplishing... something. At least it would feel like it had more of an impact than what she was doing while powered. But then again... there were rumors that the Negaverse was behind all of it in the first place... So clearly they weren't the right choice either. Which left the Dark Mirror. A faction she really knew nothing about. Lately she had been thinking about whether or not she could go and find one and perhaps talk to them, unlike the last time she had run into one. She didn't know what their deal was, but she was still curious as to what ideas they had. After all, everyone in each faction had some reason as to why they were there... Then she felt it... the signal of chaos that was stronger than she was. She looked around from on top of the jungle gym that she was on to see if she could tell where they were, but it was so large and so close at this point, that she had no idea. She wondered for a moment if she should go looking for them, but then, where would she start?

Stretching as he stepped out of the mirror, having just left mirror space, the dark haired male was bundled up in a coat to keep himself warm. It was cold out, cold enough that he was surprised it wasn't snowing yet. While summoning one of the plushies he kept on his person, well sort of, he was able to pick up on someone near by. "Senshi..." Looking down at the plushie in his arms he smiled a bit.
"Maybe we should see who it is..." He knew a few, some were ok with him while others...not at all. It might not be a good idea, not when he knew of at least one senshi who wanted him dead, but he was an eternal and he should be able to handle himself - right? He hoped so because he was headed towards the signature. Holding onto his plushie, face pressing into its soft material, he knew his coat hid his wings and most of his uniform thanks to it being a long puffy coat. He also knew his signature gave away that he was an eternal.
He didn't call out, didn't want to scare whoever it was, so he just followed his senses and hoped for the best - it was the best he could do.

Larissa still hadn't decided if the signature was something to run away from. She had felt the Dark Mirror signature before, but this one was... definitely stronger. But were the Dark Mirror like the Negaverse? Were they truly enemies? Soon enough, the signature was so close that Larissa was pretty sure she could see who it was coming from. At least she would if it weren't so dark out. If only signatures outlined who they were coming from like in a video game or something. Or maybe there should have been more street lights. She stood up and looked around and saw... someone in a large puffy coat and holding onto a plushie? She jumped back a bit, wondering if it might have been some... well someone who was a problem somehow, but she could swear that the signature was coming from the area around the plush-person. She hopped down from the jungle gym, and looked straight at the puffy-coated stranger. "Is there... something I can help you with?" Her voice faltering a bit as she decided what to say. She was about to ask if they were some sort of Dark Mirror senshi, but if they weren't then she would have been in big trouble for talking about that in front of a stranger civilian. She moved into a defensive stance, just in case this eternal senshi wanted to cause trouble.

"Something you can help me with?" Shaking his head he smiled, holding his plushie close to his chest. "No...I just came to see who I was sensing here." Trailing off he glanced about them for a moment. No one else was here, which was good, he was all good with it just being them. The eternal didn't like the idea of others possibly turning up and interrupting a conversation he was having.
He liked to have one on one conversations with people, at least when they went well, he didn't trust people not to interrupt and cause things to go down hill. He also didn't fully trust meeting anyone from another faction inn this mess which was called a war, he'd had people from other sides try and kill him before.
"I'm not looking for trouble. I'm Kiuchi - dark mirror senshi of gorgons." He didn't think he needed to mention he was eternal, it felt a bit like showing off, and he didn't explain what a gorgon was...it wouldn't be right to explain it. She might already know what one was, he had no idea what she knew or didn't know and wouldn't assume. If she asked he'd tell her...but until then he'd keep silent.

Larissa had to admit that the other didn't look like they were going to be any trouble. Still though, she could tell that they had a powerful signature. She would at least stay on her guard throughout this "interaction" though she was pretty sure that she was less likely to be killed by a Dark Mirror senshi. They didn't seem to have the ...starseed-lust that the Negaverse had. She let her arms down. "Well, all right then." She knew that she was often curious about others too. It's what had put her in such a dangerous situation a while back... "Gorgons?" She asked, less out of curiosity and more from surprise. He didn't look particularly... well like it would fit him. You know, Greek. And the name definitely didn't sound like it was from Greece. Maybe they had similar tales elsewhere? "Uh, well it's... nice to meet you Kiuchi?" She replied, confident at first, but then wondering if it really was nice that they were meeting each other. "I'm Larissa. Senshi of Water Lilies." She figured her outfit made it obvious as to what her sphere was. She was wondering what to say next. The situation was a bit... awkward at this point. She felt a gust of wind and shivered. "It's too freaking cold out here." She said, mostly to herself. The Dark Mirror senshi certainly looked nice and warm in their coat.

"Yeah....it's a bit hard to tell...even without the coat." It wasn't easy to tell what he was the senshi of, his uniform giving nothing away, though that might be a good thing. If no one knew than no one knew what to expect or possible ideas of what might come at them magically speaking, also no one knew what to look for when looking for the senshi of gorgons. It was, perhaps, a good thing - a way to hide of sorts.
"Water lilies..." Tilting his head a bit, giving her a curious look. "I can see that. But what...what magic?" He wasn't sure what he could see for that, he really was clueless on what sort of magic such a sphere could afford it's senshi. "I like that name - Larissa. It sounds nicer than mine." Though his fit him, sort of, but not his sphere but it did suit his uniform. He was a bit of a put together mess?
"It is. We can find somewhere a bit warmer to stand about and talk - if you want?" He offered. because he didn't think it right to try and share his coat with her. And he needed it to keep warm as well, because no uniform seemed warm enough for the Destiny City winters.

Larissa's eyebrow raised at Kiuchi's question. Was he gathering intel? But... the Dark Mirror weren't so bad... Sure they were enemies but not blood driven. "Let's just say, you'll get stuck." She wanted to add 'like how you can get a fishing line tangled up in the roots' but decided that it was a bit too specific. Even though she had just told him exactly what her magic did. She just didn't say how it was done. "Kiuchi? That's not a bad name." She didn't really understand it. Sure, they didn't get to choose their names, but Kiuchi, other than not rolling off the tongue when first pronouncing it, wasn't that bad. "I think it fits... you. Though I think names usually start to fit the person. After all, we are reincarnations. I guess it was just what we were truly meant to be." Though she didn't know if that meant just the name or looking like they fit the name. Oh well. She shivered again when he mentioned warmth. It certainly was cold out here. But could she trust him? She figured if they went to some place more public then she could stay powered until they got there, and at least people might see what was going on. "Uh... sure I guess. You thinking some sort of cafe or coffe/tea shop or something? I'd be down for a warm drink and some sort of pastry." She said, grinning at him. Well wherever they went, she was sure that Alphubel could find her if he really needed to.

Stuck...well that was a bit telling, though not too telling, it was nice to know. He had no plans of getting her on her bad side though. He didn't have plans to get on anyones bad side, ever, and yet somehow he did at times. But she didn't seem to mind, or care, what side he was on so he figured she wouldn't become some enemy. Most of the ones who hated him did so simply because he was a member of the dark mirror court.
"Thank you...still - yours is nicer. But I'm glad mine isn't bad. They are very random...these names we get. I'm sure some really don't like their name...or some just don't fit." Where as his fit in part, thankfully. "I"m glad you think it fits me. I think at first I disliked it a bit...that I didn't feel comfortable with it." Like it just didn't suit him as a senshi, though as a person he was ok with it.
"Mmm, that could be. We grow into our names and we get comfortable with them. I know I've gotten comfortable with it." Shrugging his shoulders gently as he spoke. It was true - he liked his name now. He still thought it didn't match his sphere, while it worked with his uniform, he'd never think it fit his sphere but he liked it now.
"Mmm, a cafe would be nice but we can't go inside powered up. Maybe we can find somewhere nice and warm outside...with less people. Some heat vents maybe somewhere?" He ventured, not sure. He wanted them to be safe, where civilians wouldn't catch them since many thought they were gang members or some sort of bad people. He didn't want to risk them being jumped by civilians.

"That's true... I think somehow deep down mine just felt right. But for others I can definitely see that it might be an unwanted surprise." Some of the objects out there had... weird names after all. She shrugged. "Wherever it's warm is all right. Better than just being hit by this cold." It was probably a better idea anyway not to power down in front of the Dark Mirror. Even if they weren't fighting the Dark Mirror like they were the Negaverse, the Dark Mirror still used energy, which was something to keep an eye on. "If you know of a place I'll follow, though... I don't want it to be too hidden away. I know that you aren't going to attack me, but there could be others who... don't feel the same way." And she still had no real way to deal with those. After all, she still barely knew how to fight. She could trap people sure, but then what else? She had tried to fight, but somehow her punches still felt so weak. She sighed. "I'm already a super senshi, yet I feel as though I still barely know anything." She gave the other a look. "You're an eternal. Do you ever feel that way?" What was she doing asking the "enemy" this question? It was embarrassing, but still she couldn't be the only one who felt that way.

"Mmm, I'm sure some feel right immediately - everyone is different." He'd just not felt so in touch with his name, or sphere, at the time. The uniform was comfortable for him...the other two things had taken time. But he was glad he felt comfortable in his own skin finally - all of his skin.
"I would have said a fire pit in the park that people use to cook with. But that's a bit too away from people. I know Blaze Pizza has a fire set up near their entrance. We might be able to get on the roof above it and catch the warmth from it without really being seen? Or at least not too noticed - he hoped. "I'm waiting for the spring and summer. It'll be nicer to go out." Both powered up and as a civilian. He didn't like going out, he would prefer to remain home, but he had to go out and do adult things. He wanted warmth already.
Holding a hand out, in silent offering, he smiled softly. "Always. I always doubt and question myself...and I always feel weak and in need of help. It's why I have my court - they are family. They are here for me...and I know if I'm needed...I know I'll have the confidence to be there for them...because they have the trust and confidence in me that I lack." Smiling even more, a bit of a beaming smile, he wiggled his fingers at her.
"That makes sense - right?"
