Lysithea wanted to be better. Stronger. More…sure of herself. She was out again, sitting on the edge of a rooftop, looking out over the mostly quiet, sleeping city, when she felt the flicker of another chaos aura, and with a thought, she teleported closer to whoever it was.
Upon seeing the black and gold clad corrupt, she put on a smile. Someone new. Someone she could guide. Someone she could protect…providing he didn't have someone else…but.
“Hello! I’m Lysithea! Do you have someone watching over you?” Oh…s**t no. That sounded like she was trying to get him into her religion…that wasn’t… “I mean…I want to help guide you! You uh. I’m stronger and…everyone needs someone looking out for them, I could help! I…I’m Sailor Lysithea, Senshi of Unicorns…and I want…you to be…uh. Under…me. I want to be more focused…and getting some people that I help…would be…good…for us both? I hope. Maybe.”
Great job. She was so great at this.
“So…what do you say? Want a boss?” And she held her hand out, looking terribly hopeful, and determined that he should not see all of her shortcomings.

Cleeia blinked. This wasn't someone he knew or recognized, so her offer seemed a bit out of hand--but on the other hand, it was true that while he and Mirzam had worked with Rigel, he didn't want to be in his sister's shadow forever.
And besides, this might make for an entertaining sort of....thing. Having a real boss that was actually looking after him, a whole Eternal, might be to his advantage. If things went well, maybe he could even introduce her to Mirzam!
So he took the extended hand, and shook it. "Hi, I'm Salior Cleeia, Senshi of Inspiration, and I don't really work under anyone, so....sure?"
How did all this work? Was there an official process? Were there forms? "....I mean, what do you need from me, if we're gonna work together?"

Lysithea absolutely beamed. That hadn't been so hard! And now she had a subordinante all her own. This was wonderful, and she felt rather giddy with the rush of accomplishment that was conjured up by the simple asking of a question and being wanted as a commanding officer.
"Ah! Great! That! That's great!" She grinned, though paused. Oh...were there forms? She didn't know if there were or not...if there were...where would they even be found? But. Faustite had never mentioned any forms, so maybe...maybe there weren't any.
"Um! I don't think that there are forms, but if I find out that I'm wrong, I'll be sure to bring them to you to sign. I think...I just need your willingness to follow my lead and...listen to my...orders? I guess?" Had she bit off more than she could chew or...was she just worrying over nothing? Perhaps both, honestly.
"How are you with...um. Taking energy and your quotas and all of that? You'll be reporting to me now, so if you slack, it will reflect poorly on me...so please don't slack off!"

"Well! That's good, then." Cleeia said. Easier if there was no pain in the a** bureaucracy, surely. And it would maybe mean that he c ould slip under the radar to a degree, still, since....well, Lysithea seemed sweet, but also maybe a little bit flighty.
Which was good. And useful. He was pretty sure. Since it would let him keep skating by.
"Uh! I am definitely willing to follow your orders, ma'am. And I'm very diligent with keeping up with my quotas." All true, when he wasn't getting into fights with handsome Order Senshi that made him feel things while he was pinned underneath him.
Now was definitely not the time to be thinking about Gelria, though.

Well! Good! He seemed ready and able, and would obviously become a credit to her…that was good. “I trust you! I know you’ll do great, and not just because I have faith in myself. You seem determined.” Lysithea reached out and patted his head for lack of something better to do and gave a smile. “Also! What is your approach to Order Senshi? I know you’re a lower rank so you must get outranked from time to time…but, personally I think that they need to be won to the truth. They’re…lost, you know? And we need to give them a chance to make the right choice and come to the true path.”
It was her first time sharing these ideas, but they sounded right. “I’m not a fan of straight out of the box violence, unless of course they start it, then by all means defend yourself! But…if you’re with one and they try to talk, I think it’s best to keep things light and peaceful and to try to get them to join us willingly. It will be better for everyone that way.”
Lysithea was watching him, a little hopefully and with some trepidation. “...Does that…make sense?”

Cleeia listened as she explained her approach, and he let out a relieved breath, nodding along with her.
"I don't like fighting either," he admitted. "I'd rather talk, but I won't back down if I get attacked. My magic, uh? Isn't very good for fighting?" A sigh passed his lips, but he forced a smile anyway. "So talking's my best bet regardless. It's how my sister operates, too."
To say the least, considering what she was doing to poor Helena.
"So...I agree. Better to talk than to go straight to violence. They respond better that way anyway."

Lysithea nodded, pleased by this answer. “Good! Very good…that…that bodes well for us working together. I think…this is going to be a good fit for us both!” she managed a small, but pleased smile. “Then, I’ll see you this time next week? Please keep up your quota and let me know if anything odd is going on. If you need me, message me any time. I’ll be here for you. I promise.”
Because that was how this was supposed to work. She was his mentor. Here to protect him, guide him. Help him with any issues that he might have.
She was strong enough to do this, no matter what her brother thought. No matter…what anyone thought. This was her choice, and she would show Faustite that she was able to be trusted. Even if she wasn’t someone who went in for the kill right away.
“Have a good night, Cleeia, and be safe!”

Cleeia nodded. He was starting to build up quite the list of appointments--he would have to be very careful that Gelria and Lysithea were never looking for him at the same time. That would be a recipe for disaster.
He gave her a brief nod, and a smile.
"One week from now. And...thank you for taking me on," Cleeia said. It would probably be to his benefit and to Mirzam's that he got out from under her shadow. And this was the first step to doing that.
