Truthfully, a full book could be filled with things that Stirling didn’t know yet about all of this magical stuff…but this…
This was something that she wished she had someone else with her for.
Her hand was clutching her hair pin tightly enough that the details were digging into her hand and it as almost painful.
The person that stood before her…looked like he could be a part of the Negaverse…at least…his clothing was dark. Dark purples with skulls and a blood red color but…
But he felt like her friends who were Squires…and honestly? It was freaking her out a bit. Was he a threat? A friend? She…didn’t know.
Of course just asking was better than the wide eyed staring she was doing, so Stirling cleared her throat and brandished the hairpin. “...Okay. So what are you? You feel like a Squire but…why are you in such dark clothing? I thought only the Negaverse wore dark colors? Isn’t that…like…their thing?”
It was their thing, she was sure…but.
He was…something, that was for sure.

Necro blinked at the small Page before him. What.... What was this? Who was this? He tilted his head, curious... He hadn't seen anything like this before..
Necromanteion flinched when she suddenly brandished her weapon. "I could ask you the same thing." He mumbled, trying mask a wince when she mentioned the Negaverse. "Not entirely. There are a few knights with darker colors. Their thing is minerals." With a sigh, Necro ran his hand through his hair. What was he? He was many things. But he didn't know what. If that made any sort of sense.
It didn't. He knew that.
"I am a Squire of Saturn." Why, he didn't know either. But here he was. "What about you."

“Well…I didn’t know that. You feel like my friends who are Squires too…but.” Stirling’s nose wrinkled slightly and she looked him over again, still holding onto the hair stick, but more loosely now.
It wouldn't do to just…lower her guard. She had to stay vigilant or she would end up in a bad situation…and Stirling had no desire to do so.
“I’m Stirling, Page of Lysithea…I’ve never met a Saturn Squire before…” Not that it was a big deal or anything. She hadn’t met many people. Two Moon Squires, a Mauvian, some Senshi.
“What’s your whole…shtick? I mean…does that mean…well.” She broke off before she could ask the obvious question. Yes there were Knights for every planet, she had been told that. But.
“Do you like being a Squire of Saturn?”

Necro fidgeted under her gaze. This was awkward, and definitely wasn't helping how he felt. "...Buuuut?" It was probably a mistake to ask her what she meant by that, but here he was. Asking dumb questions.
"Well, I've never met Liysthea Page before. So firsts for everyone." Lysithea had Pages now? He'd hafta ask about that later maybe..
"Shtick?" Necro asked, confused. "You mean... like as a Squire or...Personally?"
Necro paused for a moment, mulling things over. "It's alright." He said with a shrug. "I don't mind it I suppose. It beats some alternatives, I guess." It could be worse. A lot worse. But he wasn't entirely sure if things were 'better'.

“I mean…like…” Stirling looked as though she wasn’t know how to say what she wanted to say, or like…how she wanted to say it or…anything.
“What does Saturn do? Not that I know what anything really does but…why are you covered in skulls, I guess is what I’m trying to get at, like…I don’t know. That doesn’t seem very…good...ish? You know? I’m not saying your bad! I just…skulls to me is like…code for bad things, I’m not making any sense and I’m not trying to insult you, I promise! I’m just…still…new.”
As hard as that was to admit…she was really sounding like an a**..and she hated it.
“What is it like being a Saturn Squire? Is it fun? How long have you been one for?” There, that was far more friendly, and at his comment about having never seen a Lysithea Page before, she couldn’t help but grin. “Yeah, I do hear that a lot, and I’m kind of smug about it…it makes me feel really special.”

"Oh... Uh... Saturn is... Well you could probably take a guess and you wouldn't be far off." Necro shrugged again. "It's a whole two skulls. It's not that much, plus... I don't think its real bone, if that makes you feel any better." He snorted.
There was a time though, when the 'bones' he wore were real.
"Saturn is... are Watchers... I guess? And I mean... Yeah sure there's the death aspect too.." Oh boy, was he ever bad at this. "Dark colors and skulls... don't necessarily mean bad people. No more then your bright princess like attire makes you a good person. Yes, they tend to invoke certain thoughts but..." Necro shrugged again. "It's more so the person, then the clothes.. isn't it?"
"It's alright. I know you're not." He had had questions too, in the beginning. "Being a Saturn Squire is... It's alright. I enjoy it, as much as I can. There are some things I don't like but, can't have the good with the bad right? But...It's been a year or two now? I think? But uh... I've been involved in all... this for far longer then that." That was vague enough right? "Friends and stuff. You get the idea." Necro really hoped she didn't make him explain beyond that.
Necro snorted again, playfully. "Okay your royal smugness... Have you met her yet? Cause I have."

Stirling blinked. “You’ve like…you’ve met Lysiteha? I’m going to one of these days, Soleiyu said I would but, everything’s just been busy, what’s she like, I’ve heard that she’s nice!”
She chewed her lip. “Can we be friends? I have to go right now, I have some work to do on a paper that…I have been struggling with but. I know if I start talking to you about Lysithea I won’t ever end up going back to the dorm to get it done, but…can you tell her I said hi? And that I’m excited to meet her? And that I hope that she’s nice…or I’m going to be very disappointed?”
Rubbing her eye for a moment, Stirling grinned. “I’ll see you again, okay? But tell her! You have to tell her for me!”
For now though, she did have to go…that paper was due tomorrow and…she still hadn’t even started.
Ah. The life of a high school student.

"Now who's the smug one. Lys is very nice. I think you'll like her, when you meet her."
Necro blinked, caught off guard. "Uh.... Yes?" He said cautiously. Lys might gut him if she found out he wasn't a friend with one of hers, better safe then sorry. "Oh my god, go do your homework. I can not, and will not be blamed for it not happening."
Lys would definitely get on him for that.
