It was cold still now in the heart of winter. The snow from the holidays was now less festive and more oppressive, but it was luck that made the skies clear and the air calm. It was quiet as he waited on the outskirts of the woods at the last subway stop in Destiny City. Dressed in warm clothing, he tugged the hat further down his head and pulled out the tracking device hooked up back to Mauvian HQ. Tonight was a high probability of a meteor shower, and so he sent out a message earlier that day to the two senshi if they would like to join him. It wasn't like any Negaverse agents would be out tonight, but he did appreciate company when walking alone in the woods.

Nix, naturally, was more than happy to come along on Arthur's expedition. Hiking in the woods was actually one of his favorite things as an unpowered person, and he knew from experience that it was also a great time while powered up. ...And, of course, there was the more relevant reason of it would help his friend gain the power he so dearly wanted to help the senshis out more. It didn't take too long to find him, either. "Evening, Arthur," he said with a wave and a grin, once he'd landed nearby. "Think it'll be a good night for space rock hunting?"

Arthur wanting to meet again wasn't a surprise, Selene not responding back was a bit. She had been very distant since they had learned of their powers and hadn't shown up the last time Arthur asked them to meet and Bryia had a feeling she wouldn't show this time either. While first learning she was a Senshi was more an annoyance than anything else it gave her something more to think about then the plastic around her hips or the bag she carried everywhere, might as well be a ball and chain as far as she was concerned. As she arrived she could see Arthur was once again in his human form. It made her wonder if he spent more time as a human or cat. Cat would seem more advantageous if you wanted to sneak around, no one will think twice about a cat. "Hey, fuzzy britch......" The sentence drowned in her throat halfway. She hadn't noticed someone else was with him until she had opened her mouth. Now she was just awkwardly standing there like a deer in the headlight trying to think of something to say.

He smiled to Nix, rubbing his gloved hands together. "I certainly hope so. All signs point to a a 97% change of starfall. I really hope we can track it down but I brought something from HQ that should help me calculate once we spot one entering the atmosphere towards Destiny. If we are lucky, hopefully it won't be too far into the woods. If so, I'll have to send you all back."
And to all, he meant the two senshi he had asked to come join him. Child was still to the world of senshi, but that just meant there was more reason to send her out and make connections with other senshi. Despite being a guardian, there was just things only senshi knew and could talk about. He hoped that while they walked, they could connect and talk about things he couldn't or they hadn't addressed yet. They should at least get something out of him dragging them into the woods at this ungodly hours.
When Child came, he smiled back to her. "I'm not a b***h. That's a dog." He said, grinning back. "Sailor Child. I'd like to introduce you to Sailor Nix. He is a friend of mine that I asked to help out on this trek through the woods. Nix, this is Sailor Child. A recent addition to the ranks."

Nix nodded at Arthur’s projections. With any luck, they’d find exactly what they needed tonight. “We’ll see what happens,” he said. And then the second senshi turned up. Her greeting made him smirk, although Arthur’s reply made him laugh. Once he recovered, waved to Child and said, “Hey! Nice to meet ya! Welcome to the world of magic and mystery! It’s...much brighter than one might guess.” He gestured to indicate both his own and Sailor Child’s outfits. He wanted to immediately launch into asking her about herself, but decided that letting people speak was usually a better choice. Also there was ‘business’ to attend to. “Anyway, how long until stuff starts dropping, Arthur?”

"I said Britches not...." She left out a sigh, either he was trolling her or did bother to hear what she said. Either way, it wasn't worth arguing about. "Nevermind." Sailor Nix had at least found their minor squabble entertaining. Though when he gestured to their outfits she found herself pulling down on the front of the extremely short skirt she was wearing. The last thing she wanted was people noticing her padded posterior. It was like some cruel joke her outfit was like this, at least Selene got a cool outfit that fit with her gymnastics. Bryia felt like all she was missing was a pacifier for a one way trip to a nursery. "Nice to meet you too," the weakest response was sadly they best she could muster.

"Recent data coming in says about 20 minutes. Enough to get some distance in the woods closer to the predicted landing area and see might manage to make it through the atmosphere without being too shattered to collect. I reallllyyy hope this works." He said, and there was a tone of anxious anticipation and a urgent desire to have everything work out as nicely as he hoped.
"Should give us some time to chat a while as we walk. I hope you don't mind. I just didn't like the idea of walking in the woods by myself this entire time. I do appreciate you two showing up and helping me." He said, and then pulled out a satellite gps in one hand, placing the read away for now. "Well then, lets head out, shall we?"
And with that, he started to walk to the line of trees that went from bus stop to woods. "So, Nix here has been a senshi for some time and is working to help train more senshi to they don't feel as unprepared. We've gone to the moon a few times together." He said, deciding to start the conversation for them all.

Nix had no idea why the girl was suddenly nervous, but he chose to not worry about it, and kept up grinning. He figured a little confidence went a long way. (He’d have to, he reflected sometimes, given how little was left to the imagination in his own outfit.) “Oh, yeah, lotsa training,” he agreed, nodding. “I’ve got a couple messages offering my help floating around in the message net of the senshi phones...” He waved a hand around lightly. “So if you ever want a hand with figuring out how to run, fight, use your magic...I’m your guy!” He thumbed himself lightly, a grin still on his face.

Bryia kept pace as best as she could, trying no to waddle in her new attire. At least Sailor Nix got pants... It was clear Sailor Nix was confident in his abilities, which she hoped would come in handy if anything happened. She wasn't really one for asking for help but given the most recent events, it might not be a bad idea. "I'll keep that in mind. I don't know any magic yet... well besides the whole pocket dimension to hold stuff." Walking was hard enough in this, she didn't even want to think about running. Though she had to admit she didn't seem to tire as easy when she was transformed. More questions she would have for later, she still hadn't learned the extent of her new... gifts. "Arthur wanted to teach me but something always seems to come up."

He gave a nervous chuckle at that. "Well we did try but, seems we were interrupted the first time. I appologize that I've been distracted since them. But I'll make it a priority to help more, I promise."
In the woods, the snow was lightly dusted and it was quiet. The night was still. "Are you two okay? I brought hand warmers and extra coats just in case you two needed them? I can offer them if you become too cold." He had planned for the night and his companions for days.
"I even have a thermos if you should need a pick-me-up." He added, checking the readout on the screen and looking up. With no leaves, it was easier to look through the branches to the sky above. Here, he could see the stars more clearly.
"Nix, what do you think was the hardest thing about being a new senshi?' He asked.

"Well, you do have some magic beyond that," Nix replies. "Every senshi does. It's unique to them. Just a matter of figuring out what it is, and how to most effectively use it." He rubbed his cheek. "I just sort of knew what it was after I powered up. So I'm sure you do too, if you think about it." On the mention of coats, Nix shrugged. "I'm fine. Suit's a bit thin, sure, but just gotta keep moving! Thanks, though." "I think the hardest thing is just knowing what you can do...so that's why I try so hard to talk to as many people as I can."

Bryce found herself in thought, could she really already know her own magic? What makes her special? What makes her different? A slightly louder than normal crinkle hit her ear. A constant reminder of her new life, transformed or otherwise. Now all she could see in her mind's eye was was a rolled-up used diaper, with a noxious odor strong enough to drop a horse. Yep, she thought. I have no idea what my magic is. She hopped it would be something cool and amazing but something was telling her not to hold her breath. As Arthur offered a jacket Bryia suddenly found herself a bit confused. It was snowing out but she wasn't really that cold. The cold hadn't been as much of an issue for her as it was for other people but this seemed different, maybe it was the transformation, maybe it was just magic? Either way, she wasn't sure. "I think I'm fine for now Arthur I'll let you know though."

"I have heard it described as a voice. A phrase that, once shouted, displays their power. Think of it as talking into that feeling of magic you call into and feel when you power up. A thread to your planet. Focusing can let you heard it more clearly. As a Mauvian, I can only mostly tap in to make your devices and your senshi name. The rest relies a lot on yourself. We can try while we wait if you like."
They entered a clearing a d there, Arthur stopped. "This is it. We have about 10 minutes before the shower starts. From here, we should see any starfall."
He turned to them and smiled. "Nix, would it be alright if you demonstrated your powers? I can be your enemy if that makes it easier to have a target."

Nix shrugged. "Well, it'll come to you, I'm sure. It probably already has, you just haven't realized it. What's your sphere, anyway?" He glanced to Arthur, and nodded. "Oh yeah, that's a good idea! Here, see, I'm the senshi of Frogs, and I've got a frog tongue!" He grinned, looked around briefly, and picked a sturdy looking tree with a branch up a ways he could definitely stand on...and then stuck his tongue out at it! ...And in that instant, a big, ethereal tongue appeared, and went all the way to the nearby tree, thumped against it, and Nix himself was yanked up to where the tongue had hit. He ended up on the tree branch, where he got his footing, then turned and looked back to the other two and waved. "See?" he called out. "Nothing to it!" A pause. "Though, uh, most people say their magic's name..."

"I'm Sailor Child, Senshi of... Pampers? I don't know." This was still so new to her she was like a fish out of water. It was then that Sailor Nix showed off his magic tongue. While the idea of being a Senshi of Frogs had sounded strange at first she could deny it was cooler then she expected. "So I should just come to me?" She took a deep breath and closed her eyes. Her mind was racing with idea of what her magic could be. Maybe she'd shoot lasers from her eyes fire from her hands. Her mind was going to fast, she needed to just let it come to her. It took a few moments but finally, her mind was blank. With great passion and determination, she opened her eyes as she found herself holding out her hand and saying the first words that came to her mind. "Noxious Haul!" Before she could complain or even feel embarrassed by her own words a small orb-like object appeared in her hand. To anyone else, it might just look like a ball, but she had changed herself enough to know what it was. This ethereal object looked like a rolled-up diaper, even had a little heart in the center with what looked like a bio-hazard simple inside the heart. Now her embarrassment and anger came through like a title wave. "This is bullshit!" In her rage, she threw the ethereal garment at Arthur without even realizing what she had done until it was too late.
