Welcome to Gaia! ::

Kami hadn't been to this park before. He had been a bit bored of his usual "patrol" route and had wanted to look at others. He wasn't sure though if other Senshi were okay with others patrolling in the same area. So far he hadn't run into such a problem but then again, he hadn't run into many others patrolling in the first place. So he did feel a bit embarrassed when he felt another Order aura in the vicinity, wondering if the super, as far as he could tell, would be annoyed with him being here.

But if he wanted to be a better Senshi, then he had to get to know the whole city right? He couldn't just patrol in one place all of the time!

That was what he was telling himself as the other Senshi approached, and he readied himself for a verbal fight if need be, but when he saw the other Senshi and they waved, it seemed that his worrying was for nothing. And he berated himself silently for worrying about it anyway. Was there really anything wrong with having more help? Or at least, would there be anyone who would be angry about it?

Kami waved back and waited for the other to get close enough so that they could have a normal conversation, instead of yelling at each other. Sure, they could do the latter, but that would most likely draw unwanted attention to their little "meeting".

"It's all right. I just wanted to try a different patrol route this time." He said, giving a small sigh of relief. It seemed that this senshi wasn't mad about him being here at least. "I didn't want to interrupt in case whoever, in this case you, was here didn't want any other senshi around. Though that's a bit ridiculous isn't it? Wouldn't it be better to have more allies in the same area in case something went wrong?" Kami could only shake his head at the thought.

"I'm Takamizawa Senshi of Surgery. Usually go by Kami though. It's nice to meet you Adria. Sunsets sounds like a nice sphere to have actually. Makes me think of beaches and being out in the wilderness and just watching the sun go down." He replied, giving the other a grin. His mask was currently down. Usually he only wore it when battling others.

"Do you usually patrol around here?"

Kami wasn't surprised when Adria mentioned the fact that while they may have a court, they still mostly patrolled by themselves. Kami wondered if they would ever get a leg up on the Negaverse if they still refused to go as a group on patrols or to attack any Negaverse Agents. "No, I don't. I hope to be in one some day. It would help when it feels like it's only me versus the Negaverse, you know?" At least he would feel a bit more confident having some backup.

"It would be silly to get angry about overlapping patrol routes though. It's not as if it's a contest on who can beat the most Agents or Youma. Though I'm sure that some would love to make it into one. But I feel that as long as they are taken care of, then what's the difference?" If there was one thing weird about Kami's narcissistic traits, it's that he wasn't very competitive. He didn't like all of the energy that would be spent trying to compete with others, usually when it was to the same goal. He had other things he could be using that energy on, and in-fighting wasn't one of them.

"It seems that there are very few Senshi though. I feel like forget that most of them are there until something pops up like another Negaverse plot or something. And even then it's sometimes hard to tell who is on what side considering that the Negaverse seems to attack even its own agents."

"Well, it's partly from what I "saw" and from what another agent "said", you know?" Kami said, finger-quoting both words when he used them. "There was an event back in... February I think? It was a fake circus of sorts that I got caught up in somehow. It wasn't even a circus at first... anyway, eventually it turned into a bunch of us fighting Youma and I saw some Negaverse Agents fighting those Youma too.

"But I don't know if they were really fighting them, you know? After all, they could have been faking it the whole time. And then I ran into another Agent, I think it was some sort of Corrupt, but I could be remembering it wrong, and she said that they had been attacked too and she wasn't part of it." He shook his head. "She sounded convincing, but with how the Negaverse is, you can never really tell, you know? Unless you've had a different experience and maybe you have. I haven't been at this for very long." He truly hadn't, and most of his experience was small battles with others and some meetings. Nothing significant that he could remember at the moment at least.

"Sorry, kind of went on a rant there, but yeah, that's what's happened so far recently. Though I've been out of the game for about a year beforehand." That was a bit annoying, but eventually he had been able to get back in, which felt good. It had felt as though he was ignoring a part of himself when he was just an ordinary teenager trying to get through his home-life and trying to advance through school.

Kami listened to all the trouble that the other had gone through and by the end of it Kami felt as though he shouldn't ever complain again about powering up or taking a break. He would have to keep his mouth firmly shut. "Uh, wow. Well, I'm sorry you had to go through all of that." There wasn't much more that Kami could think of to say. "Even if you feel that you got left behind, I'm sure everyone appreciates you coming back though." It was hard to feel at ease when you were missing things. It was like an internet chat room or something, except this was way more important. "I haven't met anyone that I like in the Negaverse yet. I'm not sure how some people do it.

Though I'm sure that there are those who truly do want to leave the Negaverse. I just don't know how you would tell. How could you truly prove their loyalty? Maybe if there was some knight magic or something that could force people to tell the truth it would be a lot easier." Kami said, a bit of a chuckle at the end of his words, though he didn't find it too funny. It was more of a sad 'wish we had it, it would be nice' sort of chuckle.

"And I understand. As much as we want to believe that we might be above all of the mental stresses and stuff that are in humans since we are senshi, we are still human and that means that we need both physical and mental health breaks at times." He didn't believe it would be a good idea for anyone suffering mental health problems to be powered up and out and about fighting. He could easily see them being swayed more towards the Negaverse, taking advantage of any Negative feelings that they may have had.

"Thanks for the advice though. I'll make sure to stick by it. Though mostly I've been going and visiting Homeworlds and Wonders now that I've come back. I want to learn more about everything and then when I continue to work on my comet I can use what I've learned from those other places and apply it." He wasn't sure how though. The comet was more of a traveling hospital than an actual functional society. Quite different from everything he had seen so far, and he had only been to the first few levels so far.

Kami waved a hand in front of his face, showing Adria that no harm had been taken. "It's all right. I'm just not sure hot to react you know? At least when people tell me things like that. Sometimes they want pity, sometimes they don't, so it can get awkward, but that doesn't mean it was bad." It just showed how awful all of this could be really. "Though there might be someone in the Order that would be able to listen to your problems like a real therapist you know? Maybe we should get more of those." Kami chuckled, but it felt a bit sad.

"That would be interesting. I suppose that's for sending a message out. Though sometimes I feel like we're a bunch of individuals trying to defeat a huge evil army but can't get together to get one real attack in, you know?" They were too scattered, though he would be a hypocrite if he didn't admit that he was part of the problem. He had been gone for almost a year. And might be gone even longer when he got into Med School and finally became a surgeon.

Kami was glad for the change in subject though. "Homeworlds and Wonders. I've been to a few. I wouldn't call it a lot, but perhaps more than average for someone who hasn't been in the game for too long? I want to visit more though." He still felt as though he hadn't seen enough. "They're all pretty different! One was dark but lit up brightly with the added electricity, one was an underwater Wonder, and well... I think that's it actually. So just two places so far. Which isn't very many. Just means I have more traveling to do though!"

Well, Kami was glad the he was helping Adria... he thought. Thought it's not as if he wouldn't make any mistakes or blunders, even if he was trying to be helpful. He just hoped that he wasn't making a bad impression at the least.

He shrugged his shoulders. "It's hard to say. I think it's a part of me, but it also feels so mysterious. Like I should know it, but I don't. It's just this weird mysterious place. I think... over time, when I go there more often and the world starts to open itself up to me more, I'll feel more connected. Even if something is a part of you, unless you learn about it and really get to know it, I don't think it would ever really feel like it's "you". Just something else. But when you get to know it, learn it's secrets, and everything else, then it really become a part of you. I think you may be missing out, but I don't think it's anything that needs to be seen as soon as possible. I don't think you'll become comfortable with it and it won't with you if you go there reluctantly."

He was pretty sure that he was rambling, but it's how he felt about his at least. He didn't feel connected to it in the sense that there was any feeling, but going to it more often, he was sure that he would eventually.
