It was sort of a familiar scene, for Mirzam; an unconscious body, deposited on the ground, and her off to her next target. It was always good to overachieve, after all. Laurelite herself had given her her promotion to Super, and it had been quite some time since--she was eager, then, to prove herself.
And, really, she wanted more power. From the moment she had discovered that magic existed in the world, from the moment she became Mirzam, she wanted more of it. Her own magic had been more than a little unreliable at first, but it was fixed now--which meant that it was only up from there.
She heard footsteps, and smiled, wryly. There was an Order aura nearby, but she wasn't sure where--and it was unlikely they'd get close enough to interrupt her draining her next victim.
And if they did, well. She could make her name in a fight just as well.

Lysithea knew she shouldn’t be trying to tackle a Negaverse Senshi alone. She knew just how vicious she had been that night she had taken the starseeds of Cybele and Albireo but…
But this senshi felt as though they were on her level so perhaps that would be her saving grace, though she still should call for backup but…
If she did that…they’d never actually believe that she could do things on her own. And obviously she had survived to become an Eternal Senshi once and there was no reason that she shouldn’t be able to do it again.
Which…reminded her to finally make time for that conversation with Soleiyu about why she wasn’t stronger again. It didn’t seem fair that she had to lose a rank.
She managed to intercept the civilian who was about to walk into the corrupt’s trap, sending them away, and then leapt out of the darkness, aiming a punch right for the black and green clad woman’s face. There was no need for words. Words obviously wouldn’t work. Only actions would now.

A direct, head on attack was sort of new, for Mirzam, and the fist connected directly with her face. She staggered backwards, rubbing at her cheek--but a grin broke out across her face.
Oh, this was fun. No shouted words, no declarations of stopping her, no nonsense, no bullshit--just a fistfight. No one was posturing, here, and as much as she liked getting to chat, there was something wonderfully refreshing about the prospect of just getting into it.
"Feisty, aren't you?" she said, and she moved to swing a fist herself, right back at the other Senshi's face. A black eye for a black eye, as it were.
This night was shaping up to be far, far more entertaining than she'd even dared to hope.

Lysithea huffed and scowled, turning her face at the last moment so that the fist connected right with her temple, causing her head to burst into pain from the contact. s**t. It might have gone better to just take it with her face but…it was fine. Nobody could see a mark if one got put there, and they would ask questions if she ended up with marks on her face and so she lifted a hand, watching the corrupt for a moment.
“I’m game to keep going, but in order to keep my friends unaware that I’m. Getting myself into “danger” without telling them, I’ll ask you to avoid my face. I’ll do the same for you, and I apologize for not thinking of that to begin with.”
She doubted that the request would be listened to but. Maybe if she offered. “If you want. I can use my magic to heal your face so it won’t have any marks too. Then we can get back to the fight?”

Mirzam supposed that she didn't have to take a moment to listen when the other Senshi held up her hands, but...well, she was many things, but a monster was. Ah, only occasionally one of them.
So she listened, and tilted her head to the side, and hummed. "My girlfriend would probably like it better if I didn't come home with a black eye, it's true," she said, and she sighed. "Never mind that I'm terribly vain." Which was....well, it wasn't untrue, and it'd be hard to explain it as Aimee anyway. People would wonder what had happened that a bookseller had a black eye.
"So, fine. I'll take your healing, and then we'll have a proper fight like civilized magical girls, and aim below the face and above the belt only." She wondered if this Senshi's commitment would hold up in the face of her magic.
Maybe she'd have to test that.

Lysithea paused, and then managed a small, almost pleased smile at the fact that the Corrupt was choosing to listen. That. Boded well. She took a step towards her and held up her hands. “Lysithea Mending Horn.” The words were murmured, and she suddenly hated the fact that she had to say her name while using her magic. Perhaps that would be another thing to ask Soleiyu about. If the magic would work without her giving herself away each time she used it but…
She drew back again when the magic was spent and nodded to the other woman. “Below the face and above the belt.” The words were an agreement, but honestly, Lysithea half hoped that perhaps her gesture of kindness would make the woman want to cease fighting. Would just…allow them both to part ways and go home.
…Doubtful, but…
…Her head was aching, something awful.Noir Songbird Lysithea Calls out her attack, and a small unicorn horn made of energy appears in her hand. She can use this to mend all minor injuries, including small scrapes and cuts, by placing the tip of the horn on her target. The injuries will rapidly patch themselves back together, causing them to fade to nothing. The energy horn fades after the cuts are healed. The injuries can take up to 30 seconds to heal and once she has cast her magic it cannot be interrupted. She can use this three times in battle.

Despite the offer having been made, Mirzam sort of wasn't expecting that it would actually be fulfilled. So she blinked in some surprise when the Senshi actually cast her magic, and held still while the healing was applied.
Lysithea. She had to guess that was this lovely lady's name, and she'd have to look into her further. But maybe, perhaps, this wasn't as fun as she'd thought it would be. She'd test how this Senshi reacted to her magic another time, maybe.
"Ugh, you know, you being so nice has really drained all the fun out of the idea of punching you," she said, dryly. "Which is very unfair, and you owe me a proper fight later. Not tonight, though, I'm bored now."
With that, she vanished into the night.

Lysithea paused and frowned slightly, though after a moment she gave a little smile, turning and heading home herself.
Perhaps that one would be worth helping…or trying to help. If…she was ready to give up a fight…then there was hope for her. And hopefully…
Hopefully there was still Good in her.
But. Now was the time to go home and get some painkillers and maybe take a nap. If only her magic would work on herself.
