Welcome to Gaia! ::

Tyrannosaurus was implementing another newly devised training method to assist in her never ending quest to be the best she possibly could be. Best what, she was still unsure, as there were so many paths ahead of her she was not sure what to focus on first.

She knew she liked fighting, and physically defending those who could not defend themselves from the forces of evil that chose to prey on them. Realizing how useful her magic could be, even if it was during a fairly silly fight, she was determined to keep practicing it in as many different ways as she could. She was starting to notice that not every Chaos operative was the same, however, and some were slow to provoke into a fight. It was like they didn't even WANT to, sometimes.

Baffling.

Tonight, she did not sense any Chaos near her at all. Which was the focus of her training that night: sensing auras. She had her hat pulled down over her eyes and was wandering around the park in a way that she did not really consider others would think troublesome. In fact, the thoughts and concerns of others, at least in regard to herself, were never things she troubled herself with. People would always have their judgements and their thoughts, and that was just fine by her. She had no intention of letting such thoughts, however, inhibit her in any way.

She wandered where she knew she had seen some trouble before, hoping a Negaverse soldier might make it their usual stomping ground and she would get lucky. She did not feel much of anything, however.

At least until she tripped over something the felt suspiciously like a person. All at once she was feeling a lot of things, like the anxiety of knowing she bumped into someone, the rush of the wind as she lost her balance, and the sting of a very solid collision with the ground.

"Oh no, i'm sorry!" she yelled, somewhere in the middle of it all.

Tyrannosaurus took a moment to recollect her limbs and put them back in the right order, sitting up abruptly once she figured out where the sky was and thus found the ground where it was supposed to be. She sighed in relief, looking at the hand offered to her but, having flailed so expertly as if not unfamiliar with falling over, missing that it was there to help her right herself.

Instead, she seized it with both of her gloved hands, shaking it vigorously with a grin on her face. Her hat remained half tilted on her head, pulled down far enough to not become completely dislodged in the fall, though now it only covered one eye.

One palpable beat passed between them as she stopped shaking his hand, taking a good look at him for the first time, before the shaking resumed. It almost seemed as if there was even more enthusiasm behind it now, after she had a chance to realize something was not quite normal here.

"I'm sorry, I didn't see you, no! I didn't see anything! I was practicing... er... well. I was training, and I didn't realize anyone was down there! I'm sorry if I hurt you! I'm T-Rex!" While not an entirely accurate version of her star name, she preferred it as her nickname. She finally released his captive hand, still grinning excitedly as she reached one hand up to fix her hat and regard him with two bright, shining green eyes.

"Who are YOU?"

T-Rex looked charmed and delighted, not worried that she might be coming off as a weirdo. After all, she was sure a lot of them were used to it at this point, present company not excluded, and at least she was comfortable knowing she could always prove any incorrect assumptions about her wrong. Or, more likely, she would not worry about them and just keep dancing through life her way.

It was an easy enough philosophy for her.

"I thought for a second you'd forgotten your name! Or you could just be making it up to get me to leave you alone, but that wouldn't work anyway, right?" She grinned, collecting herself a bit more and making sure her cool coat and sweet hat were all properly in place. Her wavy hair was likely going to be a nightmare to tame once she got home, but that was a problem for future T-Rex.

"Andreiya? That's rad. But why do you need a soil sample? Is something poisonous around here? Doing some gardening?" Why would someone be gardening in the park? He certainly did not look like a park ranger, though she was not sure what their hiring regulations were like. Since she had created the trouble of tripping over him, she might as well see if she could help him with his efforts.

That was just good manners. You run someone over, you help them collect dirt. Everyone knew that.

"Why would that be weird?" T-Rex laughed, looking just as excited after hearing his explanation as she had been before.

"I mean, you didn't seem to think me walking around with my hat pulled down was weird. And if you did, you didn't say it out loud, which is all I care about anyway! Have you been to a lot of other worlds trying to figure stuff like that out? I know Senshi can go to different worlds, though I haven't gone to mine yet."

For a moment, she looked a little nervous. Brave to the point of reckless, it was not that T-Rex was worried about what she would find on her planet. She was just unsure about the technical details, which was usually where she fell down with things. Brute strength and ridiculous luck and gung ho were her favorite tactics: thinking and planning and preparing for the worst?

She needed someone else to help her with that kind of stuff or, as was being proven with her trip to her planet, it would just not happen. She had just psyched herself out, at this point.
