Welcome to Gaia! ::

Takamizawa was nervous. He had contact Hamal about getting back together after all of the circus stuff had blown over and had to wait a week for the weather to finally warm up a bit so that they could go for a walk. And he could... apologize. Guilt was eating him up inside at having lost her in the crowd during the last part of the circus attack. And to make matters worse, it had taken a couple of days for him to finally get rid of those circus memories that had made him think that he was actually a trapeze artist!

He hadn't contacted Eunkyung the entire time. When he finally realized what had happened and that he hadn't even sent her a text he had felt guilt wash over him. Then school and well... it was finally the beginning of Spring Break, which meant that he would have more time to talk and if she were angry at him, which he wouldn't blame her in the least, he would have a chance to work on their... relationship.

He still couldn't tell if they were going out or not. He hoped that perhaps the walk tonight would fix that. But all he could do was wait now for Hamal to come at the park that they had first met at, slowly watching the sky turn colors as the sun set.

Takamizawa stiffened a bit when he felt the familiar signature that came from Hamal. Somehow he had still been surprised even when he had been expecting her. He knew it was because he was nervous. He would have welcomed it and felt calm at feeling it otherwise.

He sighed and waited for her to finally come and when she did he couldn't help but smile at her. "It's okay Hamal. I got to enjoy the sunset while I was waiting." He still felt stiff. He hated feeling that way. With anyone else he would have been relaxed. Her though? He didn't want to disappoint her, even though he felt like he already had. "Hamal I..." He was pretty sure this was literally the first time he was apologizing to someone. It felt weird. "I'm sorry. I lost you in the confusion of that horrible circus thing. I tried to find you after the main youma was defeated." He could feel his hands shaking and he had had to turn his head away as he said the words. He couldn't stand to even hear himself right now. He knew he needed to look at her though.

He turned his head toward her, blushing in embarrassment. "I'm so sorry."



Bernard had fallen asleep outside underneath a tree since the weather had finally decided to start getting warm again. Sure, it wasn't terribly warm, only about 10 degrees above freezing, but he was so tired of feeling cold that he relished the opportunity to get outside again! Which had led to him taking a sunny spot underneath a tree and falling asleep for several hours.

When he awoke though he noticed two things. The first was that it was obviously getting dark, which meant that he should start heading home. The second was that there were the signatures of two senshi within the park, and one of them felt as though they were just bursting with power. Which only meant one thing.

So, he had gotten himself up and waddled over to the two and when he got there he could see that the male of the pair seemed to be apologizing. Well, seems I came in the middle of an apology. I'll wait until they are done then. The boy seems to be pouring his heart out quite a bit. Bernard held in a chuckle at the two of them, but he knew that he would need to get the female's attention before she left the park.

Kami was comforted by her words, but still felt guilty for what had happened. It was neither of their faults but... could he have done something to prevent it? Been a better Senshi? In his head he knew that even Eternal Senshi couldn't have stopped it, but he felt so helpless even with these powers. It wasn't a matter of having enough power, but actually doing something.

"The clinic? You'll have to tell me about that one." He said, a worried look on his face. He wondered what had happened there. He didn't remember hearing about any clinic problems, but perhaps he had missed it somehow. Perhaps that was when he was focusing more on school than on being a Senshi. He hadn't done much for almost a year after all.

He let out a sigh. "Of course it has been. I should have stayed with you." A hand made it's way to the back of his head. Really, why was this so hard? It shouldn't be but it was. He moved his hand to touch her face, even though his hands were covered, when she whispered to him. Suddenly he felt the presence of the cat too. An Order one at that. He sent a smirk her way. "I wonder who he's here for?" He asked, sure that he was here for Hamal. After all, a cat had shown up to Kami when he needed to be upgraded also.

"You can come out, we know you're here." Kami said in the direction that he felt the aura from.



Bernard could feel his whiskers twitch as the two Senshi finally realized that he was here. He would have been perfectly happy to let the two continue, but he couldn't leave without getting the young lady upgraded. If he didn't, who knew how long it would be until another guardian found her? Too long.

He waddled out from his "hiding" spot and padded up to the two. "I'm so sorry to interrupt, I didn't meant to stop you two from having... communicating your issues to each other in a healthy relationship but I am here for the young lady's upgrade." He said, his gaze moving from Kami and then landing on Hamal. "It would seem that you are just bursting with power dear, and that would mean that you're finally ready to become a Super Senshi just like your... boyfriend over here." Bernard said, his fur-stache curling. Considering the conversation the two just had, perhaps they hadn't declared their relationship to each other just yet.

Takamizawa wanted to ask about the rest of it, but now wasn't the time. This seemed like it would be a long conversation and while he wanted he wanted to stay out all night with her, it wouldn't be good for either of them. Sleep was needed. "All right, later is fine." Before he could say anything else though, the cat stepped up to them and started talking to them. He blushed at the mention of a relationship, but didn't go out of his way to correct the cat.

Instead his eyebrows raised when they were informed that Hamal was going to be upgraded, and he couldn't help but turn back to her and give her a grin. "Well, looks like we'll both be Supers now!" He said, trying to hold back his excitement. If they were both Supers, then it would be easier to fight against any Agents or DMC that came their way.



Bernard's fur-stache seemed to curl just the tiniest bit more at the reaction of the two. Clearly they wanted to be more, but hadn't yet had the courage to actually ask the other about it. Perhaps if he met them again and they were still stuck he could use his "magic" and push them together? Ah well, young love. It was up to them to figure out their feelings.

He nodded to the woman. "Yes, if you could please power down and hand me your Henshin Pen, then I can work my 'magic' and upgrade it for you!" Though he did wonder at times if it was a mixture of magic and Mauvian technology. Ah well, that was something he should ask a more experienced kitty the next time he saw one.
