He'd promised to help his fellow senshi, to get her a place to stay, she needed to stay somewhere that was safe and where she could learn more about this planet. The best place, of course, was with a senshi of knight who lived on this planet. From what he could guess the knight, Havasu, had money and perhaps would be able to assist him in his endevor to help his fellow ancient.
Now armed with a senshi phone, thanks to Ash, he'd put in a call to the knight and let him know where to meet him. He'd also sent a message to Koeia and let her know when and where to meet him = that he might have a solution to her problems.
Now he stood, tucked into the shadows of several trees, in the park waiting for both knight and senshhi to turn up for this clandestine meeting. Inhaling, a long deep pull of air, he savored the chill in the air this night. He really couldn't wait for the fall to hit, he'd heard amazing things about it, and he was awaiting it's arrival. Now if he could get this done tonight he'd be able to return to his home and sleep well, comfortably, knowing tghat his fellow ancient was taken care of and safe.
Glancing about the darkness he leaned into the tree behind him, letting the sounds of bugs and other things fill his ears. This planet was certainly very strange from his own home but it wasn't bad...just noisy and busy....industrial and too bright. he prefered firelight while these people likes their lightbulbs and other violently bright lights.

Truthfully Quinn had forgotten the encounter with the Ancient Alien, one would think that a senshi with working wolf ears and a tail would stick in his mind a bit more. In his case his whole focus had become centered on a simple photograph he had traded a stone from his homeworld with. The picture wasn’t all that important but what, or who, was in it could very well rock his very world to its core so yeah, Quinn had been preoccupied. But his encounter with the elder senshi was thrust to the forefront of his mind when he got a message from Selinur. The senshi wanted to meet up. Not entirely sure what to expect, the knight had waited until he was much closer to the meeting location before finding a hidden shadow and powering up. His senses informed him that there were no chaos auras around. No one would have to fight, or try to fight. Which was good because he still needed to get back into the swing of things. He honestly needed to find the time. Hell, even this meeting had been a thing he had to struggle to get to. It might have been later at night but that didn’t mean that he didn’t have paperwork he needed to get done. Although it was mostly a pet project of his. One that wasn't likely to ever get off the ground but it made him happy and that’s all that mattered. Havasu made his way into the park that was the designated meeting spot, heading towards the strange order aura that he had been introduced to the last time he had met Selinur. The first time he had met the senshi. There was a bite to the air that hadn’t been there the last, first, time they had met. Time really had just flown past. Then again he had spent the last weeks digging through his own past trying to piece together lost memories. Something, anything, that could help him with his personal mystery. That was on top of his normal work, and his pet project… he needed a vacation. Someplace far, far away. He hadn’t been back to his wonder in a hot minute. Maybe it would be worth taking a day or two on the off world ‘spa’. Just letting the water wash away his worries and his concerns. He even wondered how his ancestor would react to him. She wouldn’t have a reason to slap him silly this time, even when he was working non-stop Hav knew to take breaks and not push himself. He wasn’t going to repeat his past mistakes. Even if it seems like his past mistakes might be coming back to teach him that even the past could affect the present. With a quiet huff in his own mind the knight worked his way into the depths of the park, until the sounds of the city were muted and the lights were just flickering through the still lush greenery. It was a nice park. Finally he reached the meeting point, stepping out of the deep shadows when he spotted the senshi. “Selinur,” He tipped his hat in greeting.

Koeia sat in a nearby tree to the meeting spot Selinur had sent to her phone, a telecommunications device that if she was being honest she still did not full understand how to use. She hated new Mauvian technology she felt like it was all so much more complicated than when she had been young. But putting aside her misgivings about the modern technology she scanned the surrounding area with both her eyes and her auric senses.
When she noticed the arrival of Selinur and the knight he had mentioned she dropped down from her perch. The crystals that were imbedded in her golden skin glittered in the moonlight. She made her way over to the two men, she observed the knight, a Knight of Pluto. It was still a strange feeling seeing so many knights and senshi of other worlds wearing Earthling skins.
"Greetings Selinur, and a pleasure to meet you Havasu, Knight of Pluto. I am Sailor Koeia, the Senshi of Miracles." She introduced herself politely to the man.

Diplomacy wasn't normally his thing, he'd never needed to be good at it, his planet kept neutral and let everyone visit to handle their own diplomatic dealings. They'd never needed to work out things with others, everyone let them be and used them to play host. Now he needed to be what he wasn't, sort of.
Nodding his head to Havasu he waited for his fellow ancient to make herself known to them, he'd already sensed her. When she did jump down and approach he took a moment to press his hand to his chest in greeting. "Koeia." He was glad to see her again, to see she was doing well. Then his attention, all of it, focused back onto the knight. "You work hard, as a civilian, and are slowly returning to your knightly duties. Koeia can help you with training, she can give you a reason to work less - to not tire yourself out so much. She can help you and you can help her. She is like myself - but older." Of course she was was, she was also taller. "She needs some place to stay on this planet while she is here. I think it would benefit you both if you worked together." It would indeed, at least he hoped, they could both assist each other in what they needed.
"Koeia." Turning to her slowly, ears twitching atop his head. "This knight works hard as a civlian - too hard. He takes on many things that weigh him down. He needs to train more and work less, perhaps someone else to help him with his work...to ease his load. You have traveled more than many and have learned much. I think you, with your skills, could assist him in many ways." Help train him, help in whatever way to ease his work load.
"I am hoping that perhaps Koeia can live with you Havasu, or that you can assist in housing as we both lack in the skills, education and papers which are needed in order to fit in on this planet." It kept them, ancient senshi, living in conditions that were perhaps beneath them. Though he did have Ida and her home - she'd taken him in. She'd found him when he'd first arrived. Koeia had no one though.
Now he fell silent, letting them sort out what he'd said and decide what to do. He could only hope it would work out. As he stood there looking between the two, tail moving behind him, twitching.

Havasu nearly started when a figure fell from a near by tree but he hadn't spent the last several years being the CEO of a major corporation without learning to utilize a poker face. He kept himself composed and kept his spinning thoughts to himself, mostly about how just bazar the new comer looked. He had seen white hair before, that wasn't all that strange, but their skin... it looked almost glittery in the moonlight. Hav was fairly certain that it was a trick of the light but what if it wasn't... and if he wasn't mistaken there were things stuck to her skin. Like stones or crystals or something. It wasn't armor that's for sure. So he kept his thoughts to himself, kept a straight face, and when the senshi, for that's what the aura suggested, introduced themselves he tipped his hat and nodded. Luckily Hav wasn't left wondering what was going on for more then just a moment because Selinur explained it. Koeia needed a place to stay... Hav had space to spare. It could be done but some of what Selinur said made him frown slightly. He did not need a babysitter! Not another one at least. His secretary was enough of a babysitter as it was. "Wait, wait, wait, hold up a minute." He held up a hand and pinched the bridge of his nose with his other as he tried to understand exactly what was needed. "Miss," He started and then corrected himself and used her name, "Koeia. Just how much did you know about this?" He glanced over at Selinur, "Yeah I have the space and I have no issues letting those who need it use it but you can't just spring this on a guy. As for a roommate... One really should ask both parties before just smooshing them together like a toddler playing with dolls. The logistics man! The logistics alone are a major headache!" There was the bills, no concern for Hav, the paperwork, it could be delt with, and the neighbors... those would take some finagling since he couldn't very well have a sparkly woman move into his old loft without someone noticing and FORGET moving any female into his 'new' penthouse apartment without it making tongues wag. "Look I am not saying no. I will help out any way I can I just need to know more about it. And besides... I don't work that hard!" His words were proven to be a lie when his phone buzzed with an incoming text. A quick glance at it made Hav sigh. It was from one of the branches overseas. He could take care of it now or deal with it in the morning but either way it needed addressing. Maybe Selinur had a point, but he wasn't as bad as he was in the past at least. "Fine ok, maybe I do work a bit more then I need to but It is not easy with my job," He stopped himself and shook his head. These two didn't need to know the BS he delt with all the time. "Thats neither here nor there. Koeia, what do you think of all this?" Hav asked the apparently OLDER ancient alien. Aurelius0815 ((Sorry about the delay >.<' Quinn does have a loft he can 'rent' her or his current place has two spare rooms, tho one is a office))

"I can pay, I have a job. I can pay for myself and Koeia to eat." She was much like himself, ancient, and he would do his best to help her - she was his elder after all. They might not have been allies in the past but he was willing to work with her now and that meant a lot coming from him, it meant he would do whatever he had to. "A cat helped me...so I can look human." If and when he wanted, even if he didn't like it. He could find a mauvian to help her, like Ash had helped him.
Watching the knight he shook his head. "You work hard...harder than many on my home planet - that says much. Sometimes other people to help you take a break as more important than other workers, to remind you to be human and not just work." Something which he seemed to need more than he might think.
"I apologize for throwing this at you but it solves a few problems I've seen...the logistics...I am still getting used to this planet. As old as I may be there are many things I do not understand here. The last time I dealt with other people was back during the Silver Millenium and I was turning down a party invitation from them." Because he had now desire to leave his planet and travel the short distance to the moon.
"Koeia, if you want you can accpet but it is an option to help you. You cannot survive without a home on this planet."

Koeia listened to the other two men nodding along as she ran through the situation in her head. Then the men asked for her opinion. She turned first the Knight. "I am afraid I was only aware of the offer for a place of residency." She answered honestly.
She turned bright silver eyes to her fellow ancient senshi. "Selinur I appreciate the consideration you've shown for me, however I have survived in far worse conditions than the weather of this planet. Also while this knight may be young he has clearly been entrusted with his full Knighthood by the Code, someone like that does not need an old woman like myself looking over their shoulder criticizing the way they live their life and interjecting with unasked for advice." She lightly chastised the younger alien Senshi.
She turned back to the Knight. "All of that said, Havasu of Pluto, if it would not inconvenience you terribly it would be a great boon to find lodgings on this world. I do have many skills beyond just those gained in battle. I once travelled the universe learning many new skills along the way. I can cook and clean, and of course if you wish it I would be happy to share what little wisdom I have collected over the centuries." She said to the Knight.

Hav just shook his head at the idea of Selinur offering to pay. He didn’t need any money. Hell his kid’s, kid’s, kid’s wouldn’t need any money unless something stupid happened. Money wasn’t an issue here. At least not as far as the knight was concerned. He had plenty. And he really did have plenty of space, what he didn’t have was a lot of time. Not if the message he had gotten moments ago was any indication. Selinur really had no idea just how bad it had gotten years ago, his work life balance was non-existent and it had gotten to the point where even his ancestor threatened him with boldly harm. Granted, considering the damage he had done to his wonder, Hav was still surprised she didn’t knock him into the next solar system. He really had done some stupid s**t. All that aside he knew he still worked a lot. He still put in many long hours and was out of town weeks on end. Hell, for the last several years he was out of town more than he was in it. So he couldn’t refute what Selinur pointed out, not unless he wanted to lie. Koeia’s comment about an old woman criticizing him over his shoulder had the Knight snicker, “Man… don’t say that to my Ancestor. I think she loves telling me what I’ve done wrong, or at least tossing riddles at me and making me figure it out.” “Anyway,” He gave a slight shake of his head and changed the topic back to the offer at hand. “Koeia if you need the space I can offer it. It might take me a little bit to figure out exactly how to get around the perception of bringing in someone to live with me but the idea of a live-in housekeeper might work.” It could work quite well actually. Havasu gave it some real thought and nodded, “Yeah that might work just perfectly. Not that you would actually have to keep the place overly spotless or anything. I’m not actually going to make you work for me,” He assured her only to pause and offer her an actual job, “unless you really want a job. That I can do pretty easily. If it's done officially you would get room and board, plus pay. I would just have to do a few things first.” He would need to set the stage as it were. Make it clear that he would need a housekeeper and put it out there that he was looking. Then it wouldn’t be too strange to have someone move in. It would just be the logical progression. “But before anything a human glamor would be necessary. There are too many people in my building not to have one.” Hav turned to Selinur and asked, “You said a guardian helped you with yours? Do you know how long it might take to help Koeia with hers? I’ll likely need about two weeks, would that work or would more time be needed? How does that work for you Koeia?” He asked the other alien senshi. Two weeks would be tight but it could be done especially since he already had the idea of how to pull it off. He just needed to execute it.

"You aren't that old, I'm sure there are old senshi than you wandering this planet." Seeing as he had run into one other like themselves. Others were here also and he was certain someone was older than her, not to mention she hardly looked all those years....though off the top of his head he wasn't sure just how slowly her people aged. There were so many things he'd read over and over again, over a thousand years, and recalling it all, especially osmehting like that, was not easy. He remembered things more about trade, ecopnomies, wars, polotics of other planets and other sorts of things. Important things. He still thought that Havasu, while accepted by his piece of the code, still overworked himself. There was just enough flags which pointed that way...he was sure of it. But he didn't mention it, not this time.
"Yes, Ash one of the Mauvians on this planet helped - it did not take long at all. I don't have any documents to go alone with the looks and new name I've started using. It does make somethings difficult." Like schooling, if he wanted to learn even more about this planet and it's people, as well as a job. It was something he'd figured out, rather quickly, that he'd need but how to go about getting them when he hadn't even been born here. And don't even ask him what he thought of the idea of ever going for an exam or seeing a doctor here...how would he cover up anything they might find? And wouldn't a doctor be needed if he was going to enter school or get a job...or have paperwork?
"It could be done in that time, we just need to find Ash or another Mauvian and they can help then." She might even get away with her name, it didn't sound too odd...right? He had been certain his own would stand out though...at least from what he'd heard of human names so far. Maybe he was wrong though and his would have worked...maybe he's wouldn't. This was a whole different planet and names were new to him.
"Koeia, I'll help you if you need it until you can settle into a place. Then we can work on adjusting further to this planet. There is a lot to learn and the technologies here are different than home, but they provide a good way to learn a lot." And he was always interested in learning, anything he could get his hands on really, so if he could learn with Koeia it would be good. He would, he knew, need her whenever he went to handle his planet...and he would be there when she faced her own planets issue. Chaos would be destroyed.

"Your ancestor still roams your Wonder?!" She wondered how that old being was doing, she tried to remember if she had ever met the old Knight of Havasu. She had met many people in her travels so it was not inconceivable, perhaps she had been at a ball or charity gala the old Senshi had been at or hosted. But she realized now was not the time for reminiscing they had a serious matter to figure out.
"Thank you Havasu I will gladly accept your kind offer. I swear on my honor as a Senshi I shall not betray your generosity." She said graciously. She turned to her fellow ancient. "And thank you Selinur for facilitating this meeting. You have done me a great favor old friend." She offered him a gentle smile.
She laughed at Selinur assurances regarding her age. "That very well maybe but I am still quite old especially compared to the young kits who have been defending this world. " She laughed waving off his concerns, she was aware her body did not match her age her people aged very slowly and she had been gifted a longer life than most but she was still old and soon enough if violence did not claim her life then time certainly would. She had stayed in this life for far longer than she had any right to and sooner or later she would have to make her trip back to the Cauldron. But at least for now she had time to try to right the wrongs that had occurred under her watch a chance to aid the people of this last bastion of life.
"I will be fine for a few weeks it will as Selinur said give me a chance to learn more about your world's technology and culture." She nodded. "However you needn't be concerned about a glamour. I was fortunate enough to meet a Guardian shortly after I landed on Earth. Guardian Soleiyu gave me a glamour when he briefly explained the situation on this planet." She pulled out her phone and activated the magical disguise; in place of the alien Senshi stood a tall human woman, who appeared to be in her late teens or early twenties with tan skin and silver hair and eyes.

Havasu made a ‘weeeelll’ face and gently corrected Koeia, “More like haunts the place. From my understanding she is a ‘fragment’ of the last knight. A ghost really. But she can still pack a real punch when she gets riled up enough.” His head had rang for a good long while the first, and only, time she slapped him. It had happened way back when he nearly did irreparable damage to his wonder by being a stupid a** and nearly killing himself with work. He wanted to avoid repeating that scenario again if at all possible. Either way they seemed to get a lot of the big stuff figured out, at least somewhat. There were still lots he needed to do. Little things, and bigger things. “Ok cool. So Selinur has my number and can pass it to you. I’ve got to set things up to make it seem logical for me to bring in a housekeeper.” He took in Koeia’s glamor and nearly signed. “And maybe find a girlfriend on my end or else I might get in trouble with the cops. I don’t suppose you can look like three or four decades older can you?” He asked absently before shaking his head, “No. No, don’t worry about it. I’ll figure something out. You just might have my neighbors popping in more than they do now is all.” That or his secretary. Now they were a real force to reckon with. They would take even more work to get them to understand the whole ‘live in housekeeper’ thing since they were the ones that typically badgered him into being an adult now. Bah. He had some work to do now. That's for sure. “Give me about a week to start the process and then either Selinur, I’ll call you or give me a call if something comes up before then, and I can let you know how things are going. Anything else? Any questions or problems either of you can think of?” When nothing was really forthcoming he gave his regards and headed out. The sooner he got started on this the better, besides he still had some of his normal work he should wrap for the night too. A week was going to go really, really fast.

Nodding his head towards the female, as she thanked him, he had done what he'd thought right for everyone here. It had seemed like an easy arrangment to set up, one which made sense, and it seemed to be working for everyone. "The young kits here are only young because they cannot become ancient like us, their planet does not allow for such." At least not yet, people were, he'd read, living longer and longer on this planet. But it was still not the norm to make a hundread years of age. Eventually it would likely get there, it would just take time.
Listening about the ghost, as Havasu called it, that wondered his wonder selinur couldn't help but wonder if this was the same everywhere. Where other wonders filled with ghosts of the past? People who had visited his planet, would know him? Who had dealt with Koeia as well, people whom she'd helped. It was, he figured, possible and how akward that might be. It might even be worse if they were one of those who had heard whispers about his people, or who had participated in such whisperings. That could cause a bit of a stir for him...some drama that he wouldn't be pleased with.
"Mmm, sadly I don't think either of us could try and look older if we tried." He looked a touch younger than the silver haired female; though he actually was younger than her. "Thank you Havasu, and a week will be fine." Nodding his head, glad that things would work out and his ally would have a home. It really was stil lan odd word gto think of...an ally. He'd never had one...no senshi of person from his planet had an ally from another planet or wonder - it just wasn't done.
"I think we can let you go Havasu, I'm sure you've a lot to do and we just added to it. I do apologize for that, mind you, but this does help a lot as well. i thank you for agreeing to this."
I'm good with this coming to an end this round. ::Nods::
