Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Too easy." Chambersite murmured to himself as he drained the woman of energy. One of the "streetwalkers" of the city, it had been easy enough to lure her into the alley. Even easier to knock her out and drain her a bit. Though he made sure that she wouldn't be out for too long. After all, even if she had one of the less desirable professions, that didn't mean that he needed to go and kill needlessly, unlike a certain other lieutenant that he knew.

When he was done and pocketed the orb of energy he stood up and brushed himself off a bit, having had to kneel on the disgusting alley ground. Just then a gust of wind blew by him and he felt the cold chill of the air.

His outfit protected him from getting frostbite and freezing to death, but that was about it. He really needed to keep a coat with him when he went out. He could only try to move his jacket around him a bit more. It didn't help. He sighed and summoned his "weapon" the toy turnip and started to toss it for a bit, trying to decide if he should head back now or continue to get more energy.

When he felt the sudden signature of another negaverse agent, he had almost dropped the turnip in surprise. At first he wondered it it was some General that was angry at him for... whatever reason, but instead he found it was just another lieutenant. He sighed, picking the toy up and tossing it again. He would wait for them and see what they were up to, since he could feel they were coming his way.

After what felt like 10 minutes but was really only one, the other one appeared and Chambersite couldn't help but raise an eyebrow when he saw what the other was wearing, or at least, part of it. He was pretty sure the jacket wasn't a part of it.

"Uh, yeah. I'm a lieutenant." Chambersite really didn't want to make chitchat with such a happy-go-lucky lieutenant, or at least it was his first impression, since it was cold and he wanted to go inside. Somehow he managed to keep himself from sarcastically responding with 'It's COLD?! Wow! I didn't even notice!' Instead he just nodded his head.
"I assume you were out collecting energy?" He asked the other. He wouldn't go and start making enemies of his fellow agents. That would be bad and not at all advantageous.

Now Chambersite was starting to feel annoyed. This lieutenant was like a puppy that wouldn't stop barking. Chambersite took a deep breath to keep himself from snapping at the other and to try to remember what all the questions were that Fettelite had asked. He let it out a few moments later and answered the other now that he didn't feel like he would snap at the agent.

"I'm Chambersite. And I'm fine, I've only been in the Negaverse for a few months, but I've enjoyed that part so far. Not the cold though." He had been inducted in November, which was an unfortunate month to join in considering that it was supposed to be the start of winter. "Sometimes. I usually patrol in places around here but not always right here." It reminded him of how criminals would only stay in a certain mile radius since they were comfortable. If they were to analyze it, he figured that the Negaverse was much the same.

"Zircon is my General." He hadn't talked to her in a while though. He needed to check in. He thought about the help question for a moment though. There wasn't any real need for help right now. "I don't need any help right now, but that doesn't mean it would be unwelcome." Though if the other agent proved to be more of a hindrance than a help, then he would have to ditch the other.

Chambersite had to hold himself back from blurting out that he barely saw his General at all, but apparently she trusted him enough to get the right amount of energy each week. At least he didn't have a General breathing down his neck like some of the other agents. He was lucky somewhere at least.

Chambersite held his mouth open when Fettelite talked about luring people out with his... childish looks, but Chambersite thought better of it. He did not want to ask what type of people the other agent had lured. Chambersite couldn't help but shrug at the last question though. "Mostly wait and watch for a good victim and when it's time I strike quickly enough that I don't get seen. Or at least I try to. I have gotten caught a couple of times." He didn't even want to think of those. They were annoying, and he knew he had to be better than those.

"It's kind of slow, but I eventually meet my quota. Do you have any trouble meeting yours?" He didn't think the other would, but he was curious.

Chambersite raised an eyebrow but otherwise didn't say anything. He supposed he was lucky that Zircon didn't feel the need to beat him. But then again, Fettelite didn't seem to be... as competent as he was. Still, beating your followers was no way to get them to obey you. They either were too fearful of letting you down and making mistakes, or trying to find a way out of there.

Though he did suppose that there were those would were okay with the physical punishments and they healed too quickly too care. In any case, when he became a General, he would make sure that any followers that he had would be following him because they wanted to, not because they felt that they had to.

"I... would avoid eating starseeds for now. I've seen some of what happens to those who do it and it's not pretty. Well, sometimes it's okay, but you never know what you're going to turn into, so I'd advise against it." He couldn't imagine doing such a thing. He didn't have anything against any others who did it, but he had read up on the consequences of doing so, and he did not want to give up his civilian life in any case.

"But youma in general? I think I've seen some. Once you get to Captain I think you can get one of your own, but they eat starseeds for sustenance. I wouldn't want to mess with them or become one of their targets." This Agent was pretty naive, at least Chambersite thought Fettelite to be. Perhaps he needed some help?

Chambersite shrugged. "I've never heard of having to take starseeds, but some have a preference. Though I've never been told by my General that I have to take them." Which made him wonder why he hadn't seen her lately either... Shouldn't she be trying to check in on him or something?

"I don't think they do. We've been attacked by youma before, so I don't believe that they would purposefully make agents out of them considering that they could "rebel". But I'm sure some Generals and others higher than them have encouraged it." He had remembered learning about a few agents who had been turned either into full youma or half youma. It was something he would avoid doing. Even if that meant not ever eating a starseed, something that he was completely fine with.

The other agent seemed to be doubting himself quite a bit though. "Look, how about sometime later, we can go out together and practice gathering energy?" He looked at his phone and realized it was getting quite later. "We can meet up later and see where you might be going wrong or need to improve? I can't guarantee that I'm better than a Captain or a General but I could at least try to help."

"I'm not sure why they would in the first place. I've heard that we don't need to have starseeds as much anymore. Though I'm sure if Generals do want starseeds instead of energy, there's a reason for it. And whatever reason it is, I'm sure it's a good one for the Negaverse and not for humanity." He didn't really care about humanity. Even if he himself was human. He might feel worse for them if they were really trying to do something to change the world, but it seemed most of them didn't care, or at least continued to have children thinking that for some reason those children should be the ones to "save the planet".

A***holes.

His eyebrows had probably lowered at some point, which is why one of them raised again at what Fettelite said about his sister. "Yeah, that sounds abusive. I'm sure that once we rise up in the ranks, we'll get more knowledge. But you can't give all of the knowledge to the lowest ranks right? That would make it easier for any secrets to be spilled and information given to the enemy. All we can do is go for General, which of course I'm aiming for." As much as he wanted to be a General-King, he didn't see a need for it yet. Perhaps after a few more years of experience he may think about it, but for now, General was a reasonable goal.

He waved his hand at the other. "It's fine. Agents have to be trained somehow. not sure why we wouldn't help each other in that regard. Seems weird to have agents who can't do what they're supposed to and just let them continually fail without giving any help." He summoned his tablet and pulled it apart, letting the screen appear. "I can send you a message or whatever if you give me your information. That way we can meet up later."

Chambersite looked at the other agent like he was studying the other. It seemed to him that this was one of those agents that may have been forced into the Negaverse. He wasn't sure why. It made sense that they would want more Senshi on their side, so forced corruptions of ordinary people... why did other Generals do it? And then treat them so badly afterwards. If they truly wanted people who were forced into this to stay, shouldn't they be nice to them instead? Make them want to stay rather than being scared and perhaps finding a way out if possible?

Ah well, perhaps it was something to think about when he was finally a Captain or a General. At least he might have more of a say then.

After they exchanged information, Chambersite de-summoned his tablet and looked at the other. "It's no problem. I'm willing to help any agent who may need it." Besides, if an agent was too scared to do anything, then what kind of asset would they be to the Negaverse? "It's getting a bit late, so I'm going to be heading back to my home. But if you have some free time, feel free to message me about training. And when we're both free we can meet up then. It shouldn't be too hard to find some criminals to drain energy from." He said, stifling a yawn. Really, this conversation didn't seem like it had been long, but apparently it was. Or else he was just really bored. He wasn't sure which.
