Quote: Prompt 2: The downside to an army of little bunnies is that they burrow. There are holes peppering Destiny City, and with the fresh fallen snow it can be impossible to tell where they are hiding. The holes range from small holes to several feet deep, so can be a minor inconvenience to a potential hazard. On the bright side, sometimes you wind up covered in bunnies looking for warmth from their sudden guest. On the other hand, there are a rising number of trips to the hospital for twists and sprains. If there was one good thing about looking like a pirate/old time sailor, it was that Voyager's outfit was pretty warm. Which meant that even in the colder weather he had been able to go out and "patrol" or whatever it was he was supposed to do. To be honest he was still pretty clueless, and from what he could tell he was supposed to be fighting some "Agents" or something, as though he were going to fight Team Rocket or something. How he was supposed to do this was beyond him. He had been told that he was stronger, more than a normal human, and he could probably help defeat some monsters, but considering that Senshi appeared to have magic and he... didn't, he felt he was quite at a disadvantage. Even worse, he wasn't sure how he was supposed to recognize these "auras" that every powered person apparently possessed. Which is why when he did feel the aura of a Dark Mirror, he did not realize what it was, only that he felt something a bit chaotic in the back of his mind. What he did see was in the lawn part of the museum that he had been wandering around was what appeared to be someone... he couldn't tell who. And quite a few of the weird tribble-bunnies that had almost literally popped up overnight. He was going to leave them alone, but then saw that they fell and he hurried over to what appeared to be a woman to see if she was all right. Her outfit looked a bit like a Senshi, and the chaos was a bit more prominent, but nevertheless he wasn't one to leave someone in need. "You okay? Let me help you out of there." He said as he moved his arms under hers to pull her out.

All things considered Shaowei had suffered from worse falls and her sudden tumble into yet another deep burrow didn't cause any lasting damage. What it had done was leave her with an aching backside though, and the added 'pulse' of an Order being in the area made her sigh. It wasn't that she thought of them in an unfavourable light, in fact almost all of them had been lovely to her, but that didn't meant that they would all be that way and her landing on her a** just as one approach was hardly the best position to be in.
She didn't have much time to recover from her fall by the time Voyager reached her and no sooner had she managed to pull herself to her feet than she heard the man query her. A quick glance up and she came face to face with what she assumed was another Knight. Well, sort of, his aura wasn't particularly strong but that didn't necessarily mean he was harmless either. Looks could be deceiving and where he might not have magic he might very well pack a punch anyway.
...She'd seen that one a few times too.
"Oh I'm fine," she sighed and gave her skirt a quick dust down. "They really need to stop making their homes in such inconvenient places though," she continued and shook her head. His offer to help her up though was most definitely a welcome one and she smiled.
"If you don't mind giving me a hand that would be wonderful," she added and held up her hands so that he could make a grab for them. "I'd sooner not damage their little house any further and if I jump from here I might blow a bigger hole in their roof," she admitted.

He grinned and took her hands, pulling her up. He had to be careful, he wasn't sure how strong he was compared to a regular "civilian" and even if she was powered, he didn't want to throw her into the air or something by accident. It seemed to work though and she was finally out of the hole. "I'm glad that I could help. Though I have to admit I haven't seen someone dressed like you before... referring to your outfit. I know mine's a lot to take in as well. I know that the Senshi who was with me when I awakened had a lighter outfit. Though I have to admit yours looks pretty awesome as well. I think I just need to hold some rum and I could be slapped on the side of a bottle." He said, trying to understand what exactly she was. She looked like one of those Senshi, but her outfit was so dark. Adding to the fact that he could swear he felt some chaos... was she an enemy?

She probably wouldn't have appreciated soaring into the sky again at first, but in hindsight she probably would have found some entertainment in it. Fortunately Voyager had enough restraint to haul her out of the hole without sending her into the air and she was able to right herself within moments. A quick pat down and she was looking respectable once more - or rather she was straightened out to her own standards, she was probably fine for everyone else as was.
"Thank you," she said at last, a warm smile on her lips. She knew those energy signatures, familiar to those she had encountered before, though for once, similar to her own in strength. She had only just found more power and to say she hadn't quite gotten used to it was an understatement. For all intents and purposes the young woman still very much felt like she was a greenhorn!
Regardless, when he complimented her she couldn't help but smirk. Yep, she did have to agree that she had lucked out in terms of her own attire, but when he went on to describe a similar encounter she paused.
Aha, so he hadn't found himself alone and isolated when he woke up.
...Not like her at least.
"Oh I don't know I think you'd make a fabulous Captain Morgan," she teased before shaking her head. "By the sounds of it you've already met some of your counterparts," she added. She might have been one of 'chaos', but she wasn't particularly malevolent. If anything she was one of those 'friendly' sorts, though had she been one with a corrupted heart then her story might have been very different.
Whether she had liked it or not to begin with, she'd been very lucky when it had been Remarque who had discovered her and not a General.
"We come in three varieties, personally I think I'm the best kind but I think we all say that about ourselves," she chuckled. "I'm Shaowei by the way," she finished and offered her hand.

"Thank you. Though I think I would need quite the beard, but I could probably pull it off." And an eyepatch probably. Did pirates have to have parrots as well? That appeared to be a requirement for some reason, even though cats were more likely to be found on ships. "I have, can't say that I've gotten a whole lot of information out of them though. That encounter was pretty brief and we didn't stay too long since there were others." He had had to go in and check the tapes to make sure he didn't have to edit them. Luckily they managed to miss everything, but hoped that such an occurrence didn't happen again at the museum. "Three varieties? What are those besides, uh, White Moon? Order? I've been told at least those two names. Would make it easier to remember if they stuck to one. I'm guessing you're different though. I'm feeling something chaotic around you." Now that he was close enough it was very hard to ignore the feeling. He grinned and with a half-hearted salute said "Voyager. I think the name fits. Haven't been to my Wonder yet or whatever it is, but I have a feeling it's probably going to be a ship or something." It would be a bit ridiculous to be dressed up like this and then go and find out that his Wonder was jungle temple or something. He had no idea how it looked on Pluto.

"A name that implies a travelers soul," she raised both eyebrows and then smiled warmly. "Consider me intrigued," she added and gave a wave of her hand. She'd heard of planets and wonders, somehow people could get to those magical lands from a thousand or so years ago and they we filled with mystery and magic. Given her so-called 'home' had no yet deemed it necessary to return her 'call' it seemed evident that this may have been a gift exclusive to those on a particular side.
...But hey, she could walk through mirrors so that was neat.
"As for the three different types," she brought her hands together, slipped both into her sleeves as she considered. "You have your folks who are White Moon as you call them," she began. "Then you have the Negaverse's senshi, they call them 'corrupts'," she continued.
"They have little angry stars on their foreheads if you're ever looking to spot one by the way, just don't expect them to be all that friendly. Not sure what it is about what they do to them but something goes a bit weird in their heads and they're not always that pleasant," she admitted.
"Then you have my folks, we're the Dark Mirror Court and it seems we have a similar 'vibe' to the Negaverse but we're not quite the same?" her smile became wry. "I think we might be inclined to be a little more diplomatic or pleasant depending on how nice you are to us, but don't quote me on that, we're a bit small in number," she finished.
"If it helps I'm friendly, y'all can go about your day bashing each other's heads but I like a quieter life...even if it does involve falling in holes created by snowflake bunnies."
She paused.
"The only other thing I suppose I could say to help you out is that my Court doesn't have anything like you in it and um, I guess the Negaverse have something similar but they seem to like much more dangerous weapons. Never seen them cast magic though so that's something?"
Suffice to say, the poor Knight probably did have a lot to explore and learn, but he seemed smart enough to pick it up. Granted she might be a little bias, but he'd be able to meet people who could balance her views out, right?

She had chaotic energy, which should have been enough for him to distrust her, but being new and friendly, he doubted that everyone on the other side was out to fight. He was sure that they all had their own goals, what the "Dark Mirror" had in mind he couldn't tell. He was sure that the Negaverse was bad though. The Dark Mirror he hadn't heard enough about, and he would need to talk to other Knights and White Moon Senshi to get a better picture. He nodded. "It makes sense, thank you for explaining it to me. I'll try and figure out the differences then so I don't go in ready to fight just because there's a chaotic signature." He said with a smile. "Not that I'm sure I'm going to do all of that though. I'm not much of a fighter myself, but I would love to go and learn as much as I can." He would have added why considering his civilian job, but remembered that it wasn't a good idea to just go telling everyone about it. "Seems you're more neutral then. I think that might be helpful in the future if we want to swap information or something." He wasn't against it, but it would depend on the nature of the information that the other side wanted. But he saw no reason that they couldn't exchange more general information. "I suppose I'll learn that in time though. I still don't know what my purpose is or what magic I even have, if any, so only time will tell." He said, chuckling to himself considering what type of Knight he was. "What do you want to do though? If you're a part of the Dark Mirror, but like a quieter life, is there a reason you're in the Dark Mirror in particular?" He only wanted to get a bit more information, he was genuinely curious. Were the Dark Mirror not as active? Epine de Rose I should have replied to this sooner! crying

"If I knew an easy way to tell us all apart I'd tell you but..." she shrugged, her lips pursing ever so slightly. "I've been told by a few Order folks that there's no real way to figure out the difference," she admitted. She would love to be able to differentiate but even then she knew better than to assume her own kind were quite so pleasant as her. If anything the more unpredictable nature of the Dark Mirror probably made them more dangerous.
If you didn't really pick a 'side', then how could either trust you?
"I'd say, objectively speaking, maybe treat anyone you meet with my signature with a bit of caution until you can work out if they really are neutral. I might not have met anyone but I know I've heard rumours that my kind can be just as bad sometimes," she murmured. It was a source of disappointment to her, but so long as she conducted herself well that's all she could do, right?
"What kind of things are you aiming to learn though?" she added with a raised eyebrow. "I know you can all teleport to different 'worlds', something like that?"SSBrosB All good, I'm on a bit of a mini hiatus myself so don't stress. <3

"Makes sense to me." He said, making sure to keep a mental note of it. Perhaps Dark Mirror were more neutral, but one could never be sure when they were on the "other" side. Of course, he was sure that there were some on his own side that weren't good either. There always was at least one of those in any group large enough. "I'll make sure to approach with caution then." He said with a smile. "Ah!" His face lit up after hearing the questions. "Yes! Well, really I'm just into history. I'm not sure how much I'll be able to figure out considering I've heard it takes a very long time to restore any Homeworld or Wonder, but I would like to know how other civilizations lived out there. It's a bit comforting to know that there was some life out there besides our own, even if it's not there anymore." He always thought of it that way at least. Even if humans were on their own now, then it was due only to being able to survive, but it didn't mean they had always been alone. "Though I have heard rumors of other alien beings coming here... at least I'm pretty sure the cats are aliens. Though I don't really know how all of that works." And he wasn't too sure he wanted to get to know alien cat reproduction. "If I get the chance, maybe when I've collected enough artificats, I can show you my Wonder? I don't know what it looks like right now, though I'm sure it will be interesting." And he was sure that it had to fit with his name somehow. Right?

"You think it would let me in?" Shaowei seemed intrigued. She knew two white moon who weren't hostile to her and yet she'd never been invited to their Homeworlds. Then again it had never been brought up in conversation and neither was entirely forthcoming about the subject either. She had no doubt they could reach wherever it was they represented but perhaps they simply weren't interested in it?
...She'd heard that those kind of senshi existed too. Just because these planets existed didn't mean they had any interest in seeing them, right?
"I'd love to see one," she agreed. She would have offered to provide the same but given she got hurled out of Mirror Space whenever it had decided she'd been in there for a nano-second too long, she couldn't even guarantee the guy would find anything interesting during his time there anyway. That and well...the last time she'd been in there things hadn't gone so well for her, so there was no guarantee it would end well for him to begin with.
"I promise not to touch or break anything," she added with a chuckle. "No stealing the ancient ruins to put on the mantle piece," she finished.
"So long as it won't get you in trouble anyway; I'm not really sure how this thing works and whether it's even ok for me to be near your worlds, aha..."

Voyager shrugged. "I don't see why it wouldn't. I haven't heard of any magical barriers preventing chaos people from getting there. Even we don't appear to have the ability to just go there without some help." He remembered the words that he had heard in his head when he had first awakened. He knew that he needed to say them with his pocket watch to be able to go. Senshi, he had no idea how they go to their Homeworlds, though he was sure that it was something similar. "You could probably just hold onto my arm or something and we should both get there." He said with a chuckle. Though he really didn't want to entertain the possibility of it not working in the middle of whatever the transportation was... "You'll be the first to be invited then when I'm sure that I can take visitors." He said smiling. He rubbed his chin a bit when she mentioned getting in trouble. "Well... I'm not sure how it all works, but I don't see how it could be that bad, unless you immediately went and told the Negaverse or something." He shrugged again. "But I don't feel that from you. Sounds like the Dark Mirror aren't intimately connected with them anyway. And maybe it would just reject you going if you weren't allowed. Then the trouble point is moot." He smirked at her. He looked her over again. "You sure you're fine? If not then I at least know some basic first aid." He wanted to make sure that she wasn't hurt or anything as it was starting to get a bit late, though he was enjoying the conversation! If powering up was more like this, he could definitely get used to it!

"I promise I'm ok," She smiled warmly. Having given him the opportunity to finish what he was saying, she was somewhat excited by the possibility of exploring a mythical world that she would never have been aware of. It was safe to say the senshi had been introduced to many 'impossible' concepts in the last year or so and while refreshing, she did have to wonder if it would ever become 'old' news. It would be a rather sad day if life lost it's magic, or at least she thought it would be unfortunate.
"And I also give you my word that no agent will get information from me," she reassured him. She may not necessarily have been trusted by all of the Order, but she also had no ties to the Negaverse either. It was safe to say that in terms of neutrality, she was seemingly more inclined towards the more benevolent elements of society as opposed to those who were seemingly without remorse for any harm they did.
...Her limited experience with Negaverse agents hadn't necessarily been kind.
"But let's make a deal though," she held out her hand and smirked. "I'll give you a couple of weeks to get settled and then when you're ready you can leave a note on that bench over there," she motioned with her other hand towards the nearby bench. "Give me a time and place, somewhere quiet, and we'll go see your new place."
"If that sounds good to you, then we can shake on it and be on our way so that you don't attract anymore attention before you're ready to kick some book. How's that?"

He gave her a grin and shook the held-out hand. "It's a deal. I'll make sure to remember." When he was able to take his hand back his grin turned into a small smile. "And... I appreciate you not telling them. I haven't had any run-ins with them so far, but I've heard enough through the grapevine to know that they shouldn't be messed with on a whim and without caution." If there was Order, there had to be Chaos right? It was finding the balance between the two that would be hard. He gave her a nod. "Make sure to keep an eye out for it then. It shouldn't be too long, or at least I hope to come back from my trip in once piece." He had heard that life had been extinguished, but he had doubts that it meant any traps were also broken as well. And with a wave he was off, in the direction of his apartment with more motivation to visit his Wonder as well. Epine de Rose Fin from me! Thank you for the rp!
