Leona was thoughtful today. She had another blue crystal in her hand and felt the aura of a Page nearby.
She thought about it, and finally just made her way over, looking the green haired young man over and frowning slightly. “Hey. What’s up? You good?”
She didn’t start out with her magic, and she rubbed the crystal slightly before slipping it into subspace.
“What kind of a Knight are you? Your outfit…is.”
Leona couldn’t stop the smirk that started across her face and she shrugged. “...Interesting. Absolutely interesting. It’s so…You’re in like. Little boy shorts. You look as if you’re like…ready for a picture. I’m sorry. I don’t mean to make fun of you…but goodness your side of things is just one fashion disaster after another….you wanna fight?”
The last bit was said brightly, her eyes sparkling. “The last Page hit me on the head with a stick...do you have anything better than a stick?”

Crisium was not thoughtful today. He was not mindful, he was not demure, and no he was not peaceful. His mother had once again decided to try to set him up with a good little rich kid, who’d just prattled on and on and on about stock prices and business ventures. They’d been so damn boring. Cris started thinking about his C++ homework.
So he’d powered up, slipped out of the balcony and went to go wander around because if he had to be in the same house as his mother and photos of potential suitors any longer, he was going to yeet himself over the banister.
Of course - of course! - he couldn’t just have a quiet, uneventful night. No, of course some person radiating Chaos came over and insulted his outfit. Yes! He was aware he was in shorts! Yes, he was aware he looked like he should be sitting in a very fancy room with marble and gaudy furniture. Did she have to mention it though?!
“I’d ask why you, I don’t know, give a s**t about whether or not I am ok, given you’re the enemy, but then you had to go call my shorts ‘little boy shorts’ and I just… do not have the patience for your crap today,” he said, completely deadpan with narrowed and unenthusiastic eyes.
“Maybe not, but I can probably shatter your eye socket or jaw with it.” Where this cockiness came from, from the young man who couldn’t do anything without having a panic attack, he had no idea, but he wasn’t going question it. Not right now at least. He clenched his scrying crystal in his fist, the pointed end sticking out between his index and middle fingers as a fist load.
Yes, he didn’t have a proper ‘weapon’. That didn’t mean he couldn’t make it into one.

Leona stared and slowly shook her head, but then gave a laugh. “...You serious right now? Gosh you’re in a bad mood, aren’t you?” She hadn’t…actually wanted to piss anyone off, but. Now here he was, in his girly little outfit threatening to shatter her eyesocket or her jaw...and honestly? That both revolted her and…made her want to honestly attack him. Maybe…hurt him. Which. Wasn’t something that she wanted to do very often.
“You know, I was trying to honestly be nice? But…if you’re going to talk about things like that…I guess there’s no real reason to try that route again.”
Corvina had been friendly, but these Knights? They were just…
They were mean.
Holding her hands out towards the jerk, she gave a small smirk. “Shifting Cold."

Crisium stared at her. Did she not understand the concept of ‘talk s**t, get hit’? Yes, he was mad. Maybe, if she didn’t insult his shorts and his look, maybe he wouldn’t have gone straight to wanting to punch her! It wasn’t like this was his normal state of being! He generally was a meek sort of person more likely to run away, but then someone had to come along like this and be a whole problem!
“No, whatever gave you that idea?” he snapped back, green eyes hard behind his glasses. “You insulted my outfit with a cocky little smirk on your face, and you were trying to be nice? Do you even know what that word means?”
Fine, if she wasn’t going to descalate this whole thing? Fine. He’d fight and he’d probably lose and she’d probably laugh at him and call him pathetic but fine.
The blast of cold air hit him even as he tried to dodge to the side and he shuddered. How in the actual hell was any of this fair, Code?! These damn senshi had magic and you gave him a SCRYING CRYSTAL. He stumbled as the ground cracked beneath him, but caught himself and charged forward.
“Maybe if you weren’t such a b***h people would want to talk to you!” He threw his fist directly for his face, pointy end of her scrying crystal glinting as his fist flew through the air.

Huh. Whatever sympathy she might have had for this guy was absolutely gone and she watched him, pleased to see that her magic was working just as good as it always did…and for once, she felt absolutely no guilt! How great.
He threw his…crystal? Was that supposed to be his weapon? Gosh. He threw it at her and she smacked at it with her hand, causing it to fall to the ground.
…It hurt. A little. She wouldn’t let him know that but the thing was heavy and he had thrown it pretty hard but…
She grinned and placed her foot on the small thing, her heel pressing down until there was a very satisfying crack.
“Oh no. Looks like your little whatever has seen better days.”
She kicked at the small pile of broken shards and they went scattering. “Look. Maybe next time, figure out how to be better, because right now…you absolutely aren’t.”

Well then. That was. A thing. Good to know it could be broken. Thanks Code. Well done. Way to give knights things that break and are ineffective, can’t believe this is the whole plan that it’s going with.
Crisium looked at the shards, then back at Leona.
“Do you feel better about yourself now?” he asked her, then shot forward to land a punch into her stomach. “Does making people shiver with cold and breaking their things give you a sense of pride? You all warm and fuzzy inside now?”
(Later, Crisium would hyperventilate about the fact that his scrying crystal was broken so easily, and that he acted entirely too much like his ex-father. For now, he was going to ride this until it ran out. Or she left.)

“Breaking your things made me feel better. And, you know what?” Leona glared and held her hands out again. “Shifting Cold.”
Just so…he wouldn’t be able to chase her…or follow her. Or bother her.
“Go eat a d**k.” Turning away, the Senshi walked…walked though she would have liked to run, to the nearest mirror and slid inside of it.
She would go to her realm. She would use the crystal she had…and she would forget about this guy. And all Knights. Other Senshi were mostly okay but.
Knights sucked.

He shivered and let her go, green eyes glaring at her back. “... b***h…” he muttered, shoving his hands into his armpits to try to warm up.
The adrenaline surging in his veins crashed with another shiver. Then the panic started in his chest.
Crisium winked out of existence with a mutter of his oath.
