"So anyway," Ilse said, singling her bag of gardening tools over her shoulder, "I thought it'd be neat if you came with me, and I had two sets of hands working to fix that garden rather than one. I really believe I can bring it back, just....I need to put down new soil, and some fertilizer, and all of that, and maybe the roses wills tart growing again."
It was an ambitious task, and Ilse knew it, but that was why she'd asked Lysithea along. The vast rose garden she'd found on her planet needed her time and attention, and she didn't want to do it alone. Plus, she wanted to have Lysithea there, to show her her world. Space was vast, and exciting, after all, and she wanted to share it with the girl that she loved.

Lysithea had been more than happy to accept the offer of going with Ilse to her homeworld. It made things easier anyway, she would be able to actually ask if Ilse was willing to go through with her plan…which she had just been assuming since she had made it…but if the other senshi wasn’t, there was no way that Lysithea could blame her. She’d just have to find someone else…
Or try the plan alone. She could do that. It would be a lot more dangerous but…
She could do it if the need arose.
But now. She nodded, grinning at her friend. “I’m truly honored that you asked me here. It’s funny, because I was working up the courage to ask something of you too so…this just makes everything perfect!”
Drawing in a breath, Lysithea glanced around and sighed softly. “...So. Anyway the um. The what I wanted to ask…and please, I know I should have asked before assuming but. I really had thought that you would help. I want to try to save someone. His name is Monoceros and he was a part of my…my court? Before…from…you know…before.”

Ilse frowned, lightly. She didn't like the idea of herself as someone who was hard to ask things of, and so she hoped that it wasn't something she'd done that had made Lysithea put off requesting whatever she wanted.
Still, she listened, and the request made her frown more. But it wasn't a rejecting one--it was an expression of worry and nerves.
"I would love to help you save someone. Especially a friend from before," she said. "What happened to him, do you know?"

Lysithea nodded. “Um…he got corrupted, I know that much. But when I met him, he knew me? I guess he had met with Michel and was told to look out for me, and at first he was really excited to know I was okay…but then he like…” She hesitated, trying to think of the best way to describe what had happened. “...He changed. Some kind of a switch was flipped, and he attacked…it was…it was really uncomfortable, and I was worried about him.”
She reached out and took Ilse’s hand, gently massaged it through the gloves. It had felt like a nice thing to do at least.
“I told him I wanted to go back. To corrupt again but I needed time, and suddenly he was all smiles again…so I figure. I’ll put you in a suitcase, as your not…” She shrugged. “Not powered. And then I’ll drag him up to Lysithea and you can power up and come out of the suitcase…and we can figure out what’s going on. Help him.”

Ilse frowned. Her eyes narrowed, and she brought a hand up to her mouth, looking thoughtful. It sounded...strange. Unusual. Almost like what had happened to her, truth be told.
She gently squeezed Lysithea's hand, and then brought it up to her face ot kiss the back of it. It felt...cheesy, and silly, and she still didn't want to push for a romance that she wasn't sure Lysithea wanted, but...a little affection wasn't amiss, right?
"I think we can do that. It'll probably be....really, really rough. But maybe it's like what happened to me, when the Negaverse....did something to my brain. I think....Michel's magic broke it, then? So maybe your amgic or mine will help break him out of it." She was mostly just theorizing, but Michel had used his magic on her and suddenly everything was clear, so--it stood to reason. Made sense.
"We'll help your friend. Get him out. I believe in us." She produced the phone Soleiyu had given her.
"Let's check on my planet really quick, and then we can come back and figure out what we need to do?"

Lysithea nodded, her cheeks going pink with the kiss and a small, pleased smile slinking over her face. “...Yeah. Yeah okay. Um. Gladly! I’m excited to see your homeworld, Ilse.”
And she had agreed to help with Monoceros, this was…good. Wonderful. Perfect?
She laced her fingers with Ilse’s and nodded at her. “I’m ready when you are…and it doesn’t have to be really quick. I really do like spending time with you, you know.” Lysithea needed Ilse to know that. To know that the kiss had been welcome…it was a small admission, but one she hoped was understandable. The butterflies in her stomach were rather understandable. Zac couldn't be opposed to it. After all...he and she weren't...anything yet. Well, things seemed to be heading that way but the good thing about human hearts was the fact that you could love more than one person...and at least in this day and age...it was kind of respected so long as everyone involved was chill about it...

Ilse's smile brightened, wide and broad, and she squeezed Lysithea's hand back. This was...awesome. She was going to get to show the girl she loved the world she loved, and they could spend some time doing a little gardening, and...
Ilse was beyond excited.
This trip promised to be wonderful. There was so much worth sharing, in that beautiful garden, and she wanted ot see if the single rose she'd found might have bloomed into more.
She fiddled with her phone for a nervous moment, before finally pressing the button to start the app that would whisk them to space. And then, they were carried away.
