2025 Star Festival Prompt The Meteor Shower (3) : It wouldn't be a star festival without a meteor shower! Right on time, a beautiful array of shooting stars graces the night sky. This time of year is unnaturally clear and it's incredibly easy to see the stars. Most meteor fragments appear to be little white or yellow lights streaming across the sky, but if you watch closely enough you may find that some of them seem to be a whole rainbow of colors. The scientists have reported that it's just different components burning up as they enter the atmosphere, but there's something undeniably magical about it.
But as he watched the beautiful light show, he thought of how starseeds were named 'star' seeds and how, like the stars and multicolored fireflies and glowing caterpillars that showed up around that time of year, they seemed to be as numerous and colorful as the stars. After all, each star represented a world. But it was nice to think that despite the many, many worlds out there, they all shared the same sky.
Holding up the Gold Star Charm he had found earlier to see it glint in the starlight, he thought about the Star Festival and the original story behind it. It made him smile to think that perhaps the stars Altair and Vega - the Cowheard and the Weaver girl separated by the Milky Way - would, according to legend, get to see each other that year. At least, he hoped they would.
Legend had it that the sky had to be clear and it wasn't raining, but did a meteor shower still count as clear? What could it have meant for the lovers? Were they others cheering them on, perhaps dancing at their reunion? Or was some greater disaster occurring in their celestial world? It would have been nice to know, but even if he did, it wasn't as if he would have been able to do anything about it anyway. Still, it fascinated him to think about.Eos Galvus ((Please let me know if you’d like me to change anything!))

Sailor Oumuamua had decided to power tonight. She still wasn't proud of misplacing her henshin pen in her desk drawer, but, she had not missed seeing her powers.... Explode. Everywhere. It was not leading to any pleasant analogies in her mind about her powers, but surely she'd figure this out eventually. Probably. It was such a clear night, the meteor shower passing overhgead and Oumuamua looked up, analyzing the sky. A torrent of colors it could be, but she watched instead the almost cinematic streaking overhead and sighed. Scientists said it was chemicals in the meteoriyrs burning up, but she couldn't help an odd wornder what the sjky was actually doing. If she could teleport off to a magickal homeworld, anything was possible, really. After a few moments Oumuamua looked about, and leapot to her own rooftop - nopt payiung attention to any auras presently to look at the sky. She should've brought 0 and Oumuamua paused. She felt a strong aura, definitely stronger than hers, and paused, looking around cautiously. Oh no. She didn't want or need a fight with someone stronger than her right now, the odds were too high her magic would just explode again.

The 24-year-old Dark Mirror Senshi flinched when he sensed an Order senshi’s energy signature suddenly much too close for comfort. He had been so lost in thought, distracted by the star shower overhead that he hadn’t even seen or heard anyone coming. When he sat up to glance about, though, the other sailor scout seemed as nervous as he was – perhaps even more so as he realized her power level was lower than his. At least…he thought so. It seemed to fluctuate quite a bit, like one moment it would be pretty weak and then another it would be unusually strong. What was going on?
Due to the unpredictability of the energy reading, Sinope decided to try to play things cool and take things easy. If he acted calm and casual, perhaps they could avoid coming to any blows or involving any violence whatsoever. Smiling a little, he raised a hand from his place lying on the ground with a meek wave, pushing himself up into a sitting position in order to see his visitor better, but not getting up any more than that. He didn’t want to startle or scare her, after all, and she looked a bit jumpy.
“Good evening,” he greeted, leaning on one elbow and dipping his head politely. “Beautiful meteor shower, isn’t it? Did you come just to see the sights, or would you happen to be out on patrol? As you can see,” Sinope informed her, gesturing at his lazing, half-prone lower-half, “I’m just here to relax and enjoy myself. It’s easier and safer to come out like this and watch from the rooftops while powered up, though, don’t you think? Seems like you might have had the same idea.”Eos Galvus ((YAY!! Glad to hear~ heart ))

Oumuamua hadn't even seen Sinope there initially! And indeed she was jumpy. She was... More used to chaos being hostile. Aggr4essive. .... Well, technically? She was accustomed to corrupted senshi, and this senshi - he didn't have... voids or holes or - whatever they were on him. Anbd that made her curious. He seemed friendly too. Oumuamua knew of friendly senshi for certain, even iuf she didn't meet many - which made her feel a bit more like an easy target - but this seemed.... Alright then. Oumuamua took a step towards Sinope curiously, noting a deistinct power difference, but since he seemed friendly, she didn't think it mattered -- then she positively lit up as he mentioned having the same idea and actually smiled cheerfully, a mix of relief and - delight on her face. Someone who got itg. "Hey." POumuamua greeted. She waves cheerfully, managing not to bow out of family habit - and approached quite close, sitting down beside Sinope with a warm grin. "Actually yeah. I was planning to patrol but the meteor shower has me too distracted. The colors are absolutely fascinmating, dopn't you think?" She was absolutely warming quickly = Pu,uamua really didn't want to pick a fight here and now. This one seemed quite friendly and she wanted to honestly think the best of someone else,not feel isolated and like the entire war was a cold, lonmely thing. Besides that she had no friends in Order yet that she felt close to if at all so - anyone was an improvement. Besides it wasn't like in her fdaily life she was a bloody saint and even she admitted it. And then she remembered to introduce herself and laughed shytly. "I'm Sailor Oumuamua. It's nice to meet someone friendly for once." She nodded. She... Really hoped it was since. But a trap wouldn't remain comfortable, so she breathed, slowly. Right. This - this was good. Possible friends were good.
