Dinara wasn’t sure what her purpose was. Truth be told, she hadn’t known what it was for the entity of her tenure as a page...which...it had been a while now. She felt...just a bit useless, and wasn’t sure what to do with herself. She’s missed Kanan. Missed Tanzanite...missed her friends. They had been the best part of this. Sure, she had Tochi, but…
But she didn’t see her enough either!
Dinara was lonely. She missed her siblings, and wanted to figure out what she was good at in this whole fighting business because right now...the answer was a resounding…nothing.
As the page walked, she felt the slightly crawling feeling that she had once associated with Kanan, but now knew was simply...chaos. The very thing she was supposed to be fighting against. Maybe...maybe if she actually fought...maybe she’d feel better about...not knowing what she wanted to do. Maybe if she stopped talking to all of them…
So many Maybes. But. She was nineteen now. She couldn’t keep being a stupid ignoramus when it came to this side of her life.
Quietly, she summoned her small bottle of glitter and worked the cork out before moving towards the aura and throwing it as hard as she could to the black and red clad...whatever. “Take this!”

“What the… PFFTHHH… HEY!” He’d been noticing an odd… feeling in the air, something hard to pin down but that was just eerie and uncomfortable. and then… Then glitter. So - much - GLITTER. “What the HECK did you rob a craft store?” He sputtered, swatting at the glitter that was now, well…everywhere. He really hoped when he swapped back to civilian clothes it would go away because he didn’t want to explain ‘craft plague’ to Jace. “What was that For?!” He demanded, turning about to find the source of the unexpected assault. He really hoped glitter was the worst of it or he was going to wish Ne… Gizmondine was with him.

Oh! Somehow, she had actually managed to hit him with her jar of glitter! That...huh. Maybe she really could do this after all. “It was for...um…justice!” Dinara said, putting her gloved hands on her hips and huffing softly. “You’re...the type of person that I’m supposed to fight against, and I’m going to actually work towards fighting instead of just…”
The page gave a vague gesture with her hand and shrugged. “Whatever I’ve been doing for the last forever. So...On your guard. I won’t allow you to…”
To what? Was he even doing anything?
“To keep this up! Um. Have at you!” For a wild moment, she thought about peeling off one of her gloves and smacking him across the face with it...and maybe she would. If it came to that.

“Glitter, is justice?” He arched an eyebrow at her, made a face and tried to get some of the darn stuff out of his mouth. God it was everywhere!! “To… stand here?” He filled in for her. “Now standing here covered in glitter, which… is I admit offensive but, that’s on you?” He waved hands at her. “Was it the flowers? Guys can wear flowers too you know! Don’t make me… magic, at you…” Yeah boy that sounded super threatening. Super very deeply threatening, to maybe a toddler, or a plant. Ok it was pretty much the worst threat since… well ever. He did better threatening Jace! Good grief. Well anyhow, he struck a pose and hoped it looked ominously magical.

Dinara blinked at him and had to cover her mouth to try and hold back a laugh. “...Oh. You’re as bad as I am with this...aren’t you?” That...was good...but at the same time...it didn’t make it any easier to be…agains him...or against chaos at all and…
She drew in a breath, the laugher suddenly gone and rubbed at her temples, scowling just a little bit. “None of you have been…bad as far as I can see...I don’t...understand how or why I’m supposed to fight you when you just seem...dumb like I am! This is so stupid.”
There was literally no point to it. No point in trying to fight, or trying to stop chaos. She had no evidence of them doing anything wrong at all and...how was she supposed to live up to being a knight if there was nothing...no reason to fight? Why didn’t they all just...make peace if this was how things really were?

“I mean, seems like one of us must be doing something bad, right? This is supposed to be like, a war or something I heard.” He relaxed, just a bit and rubbed the back of his head. “… Or maybe you like us because we’re cool and you should join us?” He grinned. “I mean, I met some really cool people when they did their little recruitment drive, I could ask? We have like... talking cats and these space age communicator things and Gizmondine, but you can't have him... for reasons." He nodded solemnly.

Dinara paused and swallowed, shrugging. “Yeah. I guess I get that a lot.” She sighed and took a step away from the dark clad figure, letting her eyes fall to the ground where her little jar that had held the glitter lay shattered and sad. “I don’t know. Maybe. But. Not now. I’m.”
She what? She had no answer for this, and bit her lip after a moment. “...I have to go. I shouldn’t...I mean. I just. I’m sorry. I just have to go. Sorry about the glitter...and um. Thanks for the invitation…”
It was nice. To feel wanted but...why was it always those from chaos that made her feel the most wanted? Wasn’t that...wasn’t that a bad thing?
What did that say for her?
She looked up at the corrupted senshi and forced a smile. “Um...Bye now.”
With the tiniest wave, she turned on her heel and hurried away, not wanting to become a target for whatever magic the male might have but...not wanting to stay longer lest she...well. Give in.

“Oh… Uh… I’m…sorry I wasted all your glitter?” He called. “Are you okay you seem…” His hands dropped, she seemed so unsure, lost… had he said something? “Uh…I’m sorry I threatened you! I don’t even know what the magic does yet. It’s sorta, a weird title I got, It’s really not worth risking it over glitter, even if you feel odd? My uh, Name is Taiyangshou!”

Dinara paused in her flight and looked back at the senshi, eyebrows furrowed in clear unhappiness. “I...I’m going now...I...don’t want to talk anymore, okay?” She shook her head and swallowed hard. “I don’t...want to talk.” She didn’t want to hear more. To feel more to…
Just didn’t want.
The page broke into a run and disappeared into the night, unwilling to keep up this interaction. No. She was going to go home and just...leave all of this behind.
