Tristan was really trying to be better with all of…this stuff. She was trying, but…it really was hard when there wasn’t much…to do. She had her friend…but she hadn’t seen Mizuki since they had made plans to hang out…and honestly…it kind of hurt her feelings. Had she been so awful that it wasn’t even worth seeing her?
The chill in the air was enough to cause goosebumps, but the aura that Tristan felt was…well. Worse. She shuddered as she debated if she were going to engage or not…but when the owner of the aura came into view, she just stared.
…She knew her…kind of. Had known her. Sort of. Before any of this had started…
“You! But…why are you in black now? You…” Sure they hadn’t been friends or anything but…
Damn. She had always looked up to the senshi and…when she had become powered herself…
“...They got you?” The pain in her voice was easy to hear.

Guinevere hadn't been out powered on her own since her corruption. There had been so much to learn and so much to settle into, and she also just hadn't really wanted to. It felt potentially risky, when there were so many people who might recognize her or something.
And who knew, the first person she ran into did.
Guinevere blinked, tilting her head to the side and looking the Senshi up and down. She was cute--with such pretty purple hair, and such nice eyes. And she looked really good!
"Did we know each other before?" Guinevere asked, blinking in wide-eyed puzzlement. "Sorry, when I got abandoned and taken in by the Negaverse, I forgot...." She gestured at her head. "Literally everything, so if we ever met before, you're gonna have to reintroduce yourself." Her eyes flicked up and down, and she smiled. "Not that I would mind getting reacquainted."

Tristan swallowed and felt her cheeks heating up at the glance. “I mean…you’ve never…ah. I ran into you before I was ever a senshi. You were the first I ever met. I looked up to you…but I’m Sailor Tristan. Senshi of Trust.” Her own eyes looked over the corrupted senshi, eyes lingering on the broad expanse of skin. The long hair did really suit her…
“What do you mean you got abandoned? You had people with you? I’ve. I mean. I had been looking for you, but I won’t lie, I’m not a great senshi. But I’m trying.”
Though, it wasn’t as though Tristan had anyone to impress any longer.
“...Are you happy?”

Guinevere blinked. Then, she smiled, and shrugged her shoulders.
"I don't really know. I know there was a big battle, and I got brought into the Negaverse during it, and I made some mistakes and made some people very angry? But it's all good now, and I'm very happy in the Negaverse." She thought of the shiny medal, tucked into her subspace pocket, that she had bene given at the afterparty for their victory.
"I'm sorry we didn't find each other while I would have still remembered you." She really did look sorry, and she felt it, too. It would be nice, to have this pretty girl looking up to her. Looking to her for guidance. "But I am very happy now. The Negaverse is nice."

Tristan was quiet for a long moment and finally rubbed her arm uncomfortably. “I mean…I’m glad that you’re happy…I really am! You deserve every happiness! But…the Negaverse is bad...isn’t it? They do bad things…want to destroy the city or something…are you really happy? Like…they didn’t just trick you or something?”
She swallowed, feeling confused, unsure of everything. Of course she knew what she had been told but…but this…was something else. This was someone she looked up to, going against what the cat had told her and against…
Well. Everything.
“...I’m sorry that we didn’t find each other either…I had missed you. I’m glad that I found you now, though.”

Guinevere blinked.
No one had asked her that question. No one had ever suggested that the happiness she felt might not be real. That it might be some kind of lie. But...no, it couldn't be, could it? She was much more content here, and she couldn't remember anything about before, but...
"I don't think the Neghaverse wants to destroy the city. I mean, we all live here, don't we?" Her expression softened. "But we want to defend the Earth. Senshi...they don't really belong here, do they? We're all named for planets out there in space, and we're only here on Earth by mistake, I think. But since we're here, I want to help defend this planet. And the people on it." She wring her hands together briefly. "I know...that sometimes we don't always do the right thing? I didn't, when I first corrupted, because I was confused, and a little lost, but--sometimes we have to take energy to make sure we can keep powering up. But it just leaves people a little tired! That's all!"
She reached up to tuck some of her hair behind her ear, a nervous gesture that was only so helpful with it as long as it was in this form.
"A-anyway, I'm glad you found me too. It's too bad I forgot, I must have been so lucky to know such a pretty girl."

“Well, everyone does the wrong thing sometimes. I guess that’s not really the fault of the whole group. I get that.” Tristan gave a smile and moved a step forward. “I’m glad that you’re happy, and I’m sorry you forgot too…but now that we’ve met again, can we be friends again do you think? Can I see you again sometime?”
She chewed her lip and looked hopeful at the idea. “I mean…just because you’re on a different..just because you’re…different now, that doesn’t mean that you’re different. I bet that you’re still just like you were. And you’re surely as pretty as you were! I mean I knew you at once, so…you still look the same, just different. Your hair is a lot longer. Ah…”
She took another step forward and held out her hand. “When can we see each other again?”

Guinevere smiled. This was...this was nice. She had a friend now, and it wasn't even someone int he Negaverse! Honestly, she couldn't see a way this went wrong.
Well, maybe if someone took offense. But she would find a way to smooth things over, surely.
"I'd like that, a lot. Getting to know you again. And you can get to know the new me!" She was perky, eager, happy about the possibilities. "What if we met a week from now? We could even make it a standing date." She winked, playfully.
Oh, she wanted it to be a standing date. One night a week spent with a pretty girl sounded amazing.

“A week from now?” Tristan nodded, though looked a little disappointed. But…she had waited this long. Waiting an extra week was nothing, really. “I can do that! I’ll be here, if this is where you wanted to meet, and I would very much like to make it a standing date.” She smiled brightly at that, at the thought of meeting up with Guinevere again and sighed happily.
“I’ll bring something tasty for us to share…so it’s like a real date!”
Tristan felt her face heat up by the words and laughed. “I mean…well. Whatever. You know what I mean! I’ll see you next week! Same time, same place!”
It was a date.

Guinevere nodded eagerly. This was shaping up to be really, really nice, and she was excited to see where it might go.
"Perfect. It's a date," she said, and then she strode forward, pressing a brief kiss to Tristan's cheek. "I'll see you then."
It was a temptation and a promise, all in one.
And Guinevere kept walking, past Tristan and into the night, with a very pleased grin on her face.
