Cardinal had found sitting on a bench out in front of a soccer field was not the most exciting thing but she wanted to change the scenery she'd been seeing lately and hoped perhaps that she'd run into someone new tonight. She also noticed the air felt cooler, like the crisp air of fall was starting to peek around the corner, but she still didn't trust it.
The field was quite and unlike the lake or forest there wasn't much that visited the field at night unless it might've been a youma or -- a strange energy signature. There was a pause for a moment, she wondered who it belonged too. There was almost a thought that it felt like Chaos but she wasn't sure.

The soccer field wasn’t exactly one of Sadalsuud’s more normall haunts, but she had figured that it would likely be quiet at this time of evening. Well at least quiet enough to steal a bit of a break.
It was hard to believe that September was almost over, even with the warmth of summer having given way to the cool crispness of fall–
Although the shifting hues of the leaves painted their own story.
She had already taken a few steps onto the field when she finally picked up on the aura, but rather than the cool familiarity of chaos, it flickered bright, the aura unmistakably one that belonged to Order.
Sadalsuud tensed, her first instinct that of avoidance, as she tried to recall if there was a mirror nearby.
She vaguely thought that there might be one.
Maybe.
But if memory served, it was somewhere beyond the furthest edge of the field and therefore uncomfortably close to the source of said Order aura.
Sadalsuud hesitated for a few moments and bit her lip as she weighed her options, but eventually with a nervous sigh she stepped further onto the field and silently willed her luck to hold for long enough for her to (hopefully) find the mirror.

Cardinal was interested as the aura was chaos but it wasn't the negaverse brand of chaos. So she decided to get up and investigate. Walking onto the soccer field herself she grinned softly.
As long as the other didn't attack she was fine with it, "Helloo~"
She said cheerfully as she waved to the senshi with the chaotic aura. "How're you this fine evening?"
Cardinal wasn't quite worried but perhaps she should be more cautious, her cousin had warned her before not all meetings of chaos would go quite nicely. But Cardinal felt like this one might be okay.

It seemed like luck wasn’t on her side as the source of the aura seemed to be heading in her direction, something that was confirmed as a voice from somewhere somewhat to the side called out a greeting.
Sadalsuud froze, and probably did a good impression of a deer in the headlights for a few heartbeats, before she reluctantly turned with a good deal of wariness in the direction of the voice.
“Uh hi. Good evening” she finally managed at last, her voice edged with nerves as her green eyes watched the Order senshi warily and a part of her wondered if she might be able to get away with edging a few steps back and away from the approaching senshi.
The casual question about how she was doing gave her pause, mostly because the other sounded almost.. Cheerful…?
And she had yet to accuse her of being evil, or tainted.
Sadalsuul hesitated for a few moments and then answered awkwardly "I’m okay. You?"

Cardinal curiously looked at Sadalsuud. She wasn't use to meeting the corrupt senshi but was pretty sure she wasn't a corrupt senshi -- but thought that she might've remembered there being a mirror senshi and if she had to guess this was probably one of them. She remembered Hugbell having mentioned something about them.
"I'm Cardinal!" She said chipperly as she continued to stay kind of still hoping she wouldn't spook the other. "I'm doing well. I was watching the stars and wondering what I was going to do tonight."
The senshi of the Uktena hummed softly as she seemed thoughtful. "Wanna hang out and do something?"

The chipper greeting had been even more unexpected and for a moment Sadalsuud had found herself staring at the Order senshi with wide green eyes before remembering her manners to murmur a little hesitantly, "I’m Sadalsuud."
She hadn't bothered to mention what she was the senshi of, although the golden clovers on her overlay and the clover ornaments on her senshi outfit most likely had made it fairly obvious.
Then the Order senshi, Cardinal, had mentioned watching the stars and Sadalsuud had found herself smiling despite herself, because it reminded her of a couple of senshi from the Court who had had a fondness for watching the stars–
But the smile had faded into the startled surprise when Cardinal had asked her if she’d like to hang out with her.
"You... Want to hang out? With me?"
Because maybe she hadn’t heard the question quite right
Her experience with Order senshi had been as limited as she could make it, stemming from her unfortunate experience with an Order senshi back when she’d been sixteen - but even so the few Order senshi that she’d crossed paths with hadn’t exactly wanted to hang out with her.
But finally curiosity won out enough for her to add "What did you have in mind?"

Cardinal grinned when the other introduced herself, "Nice to meet you Sadalsuud~!"
The senshi nodded when she was parroted back the question in a startled sort of way, "Well yeah. My cousin told me if someone from Chaos didn't automatically attack you on sight they're generally safe to hang around."
She chuckled, "It might still be a bit naive but I tend to trust her. Plus everyone gets the same level of respect and willingness to be friends with until proven I shouldn't really have them as a friend."
There was a roll of the shoulders, "Well I'm up for whatever, a chat or walk and some coffee or something warm to drink. I could pick us up something. Maybe a friendly training session. My attack is purely defensive and pretty useless since it largely just blinds people. Meaning I need to try and be better at hand to hand combat than I am now."
There was a quick amused chuckle at herself, "There's a few times where I've gotten mostly lucky but it's more the fact I need to work on the dodge, block, strike pattern."

Sadalsuud hesitated for a few moments more, before deciding that Cardinal did seem to be being genuine–
So at last she said softly, "Well I’m not in any real rush, so I guess I can stick around for a little while. That is, if you really don’t mind hanging out with me…?"
She hesitated, then added with a faint but uneasy smile that didn’t reach her eyes, "Just as long as you’re not about to start calling me evil."
She paused and then added "At least as long as you’re not going to suddenly start calling me evil."
Because she’d had far too much experience of that.
When Cardinal suggested a training session, Sadlsuud found her lips curving up into a more genuine smile.
"I’m not sure you’d get much out of training with me," she admitted, voice tinged with amusement despite herself–
Because Sadalsuud had no illusions about her own skills and she’d never been particularly great at fighting.

Cardinal smiled, "I don't mind at all~" She said as she paused, to think about the next statement that Sadalsuud said.
"Well are you evil? My cousin, though she's younger than me and been doing this since she was a chibi -- lets be real that's wild she's an adult now -- taught me that just because someone is chaotic doesn't mean their evil. It's like the DND classes, there's more than just one sort of chaos."
There was a roll of her shoulders, "Well maybe you'd get more from it than I would, but training is training. If we run into more of those harolds we all need more practice." Cardinal said giving a soft frown at the thought of there possibly being more world eating beasties out there somewhere.

"I don’t think I am," Sadalsuud said quietly to Cardianal.
Because whilst she had never claimed to be among the strongest or most capable senshi, she didn’t think that that made her evil.
Her voice faltered slightly as she added "But… I’ve been called evil on more than one occasion."
She added in a poor and awkward attempt to try and steer the conversation away from that particular subject "But I’m willing to give the training thing a try."
Even though she was still dubious that she had that much to offer–
But her encounter with Cardinal had so far already gone better than most of her (admittedly) rare encounters with Order, and that alone made Sadalsuud be willing to at least give it a try.

Cardinal smiled an she hummed, and nodded, "Well I'll defend you if someone calls you evil while you're around me."
She had no reason to doubt that Sadalsuud wasn't evil and the whole meeting was good and when the other said she'd be willing to give training a try Cardinal seemed excited, "Awesome~!"
She paused for a second before thinking, "I'll go first? And feel free to use your magic~!" She grinned before she aimed a punch towards Sadalsuud, she was testing to see if the other would deflect the punch or what sort of reaction she had.

Sadalsuud gave a quick nod as her hands fluttered uncertainly in front of her in a clumsy imitation of a defensive stance.
A decidedly poor defensive stance.
As Cardinal moved forwards, she instinctively shuffled backwards, her movements jerky and uneven as she awkwardly tried to dodge.

When Sadalsuud awkwardly tried to dodge it caused Cardinal to think about when she started and her cousin was giving her pointers. Cardinal shifted her goal and moved, "Okay hold on, lets get you where you're not so jerky dodging."
She was concerned more for Sadalsuud in case she ran into someone who wanted to actually fight her. "Here stand like this" She squared up and placed her feet where one was behind her and the other in front, "You want your foot placement to be firmly planted it helps keep your balance. And lets you move easier to dodge anything coming your way."
She then put up her arms "And you want to hold your arms like this so you're protecting yourself from any punches." Cardinal looked to see if Sadalsuud was following her lead.
