Interlude: Obsession let go, suspicions of the Thunderer

She stares at the wound in the mirror. Its a simple laceration, treated and bound it’ll heal without much of a scar. The lingering pain reminds her that she has to grow stronger. Reminds her that if she wants to protect her friend then she needs to be better.

The other girls were nice. She had known most of them since she was little, family friends who she hadn’t gotten particularly close to aside from Koyomi. Now, now it would be cool.

Her anger had mostly gone away, it was actually pretty cool being a super hero. Not that it would be something she would take lightly. Setting her hand on her chest she resolved not to forget how tough it could be...and how lucky she’d been not to crack her head open in the orchestra pit.

“Mikage Chiba,” she speaks to no one and remembers the older girl’s words, “damned if you let anything happen to us?”

It makes her laugh as she collapses back into her bed. The electric feeling still coursing through her body. That figure who held her, she didn’t understand how they did it...but it felt like she was looking through the disguise of another scout. Perfectly aware that some force was keeping some aspects hidden, but she could almost see through it, as though she’d been let in the door once before. She could feel herself caught against her chest.

That was all she needed to know that Eclipse was no man. Those red eyes, that promise, and being there just in the nick of time...how long had she been watching them? What would she have done if that monster had gone after someone other than herself?
>>
>>33339165
These questions were useless, it was obvious whose side the quitter was on. The only thing caught in Kanari Kino’s mind was ‘Why?’

Why didn’t that girl want them to know she was watching them and helping them?

It didn’t make any sense.

And that monster, he was surprised when nothing happened when he pressed that button on his gauntlet. Did she do something?

Are you going to press her for information? Are you going to find out one way or another? No, you’ll leave her to her devices, you’ll leave her to that broken look in her eyes when she was screeching at you in the alley.

Your phone beeps to life, a text message. Its from Koyomi. Reading it, you smile. She wants everyone to meet up at the Crown tomorrow after school gets out. Their first team meeting. Putting your best friend’s elder sister out of your mind, you look forward to a better tomorrow.

Interlude end

QUEST START
>>
>>33339176
You are Mikage Chiba, and you spent the better part of your Friday night dropping off intel and stolen enemy equipment to PIT and uploading a write up on your suspicions of the enemy to the Mercury computer without Aiha knowing you were doing it. The girl will find it sometime this weekend and it’ll probably spark them into making Koyomi and Rin tell them about the whole Silver Millenium and Elysion story.

That intel will pan out, it has too. Most of it was confirmed when last night you met with Usa and Helios. Helios and a few others managed to escape their capture, and even though the bad guys cleared out before they got there PIT had locked down the facility and were examining everything carefully. Last you had heard, Helios was hiding in the waking world at Auntie Rei’s shrine along with one of the escapees. Usa and Diana were catching the next flight to Tokyo.

Speaking of lockdowns, Kairi was on one. School still hadn’t opened back up, so she’d been relatively grounded. Not that she had much of a social life before hand. The two of you were making your plans sporadically by phone for you big talk about her helping you in the future tomorrow night after you got back from washing off your magical spray tan.

To be fair it is going to be a very trendy magical spray tan.

That thought brings up another issue you had been annoyed with. Are you going to start living your own life or keep living other peoples lives because they seem easier. Sure you can fold being Miki fairly easily back into being Mikage, it’s already an alt fashion persona...so owning up to the circle who you really are won’t rock the boat that much.
>>
>>33339195
This day was not good, but now it is better.
>>
>>33339195
Except for Midori bringing Keiko with her. Another can of worms. Reincarnated cans of worms full of black magic and purple dresses.

Your last thought as you let yourself fall into bed is that tomorrow, Saturday, might wind up being more trouble than being awake is worth. Was it worth it to get back involved with this life?

Your sleep is dreamless and pleasant.



With imperfect timing your hand shoots up from your bed and turns off your alarm clock. For the first time in months the blaring sound echoed for the barest instant as your hand searched the device for the slider bar to nestle it into the safe and off position. Sitting up in bed, you yawn and stretch.

Saturday. Time to be busy.

Wasting no time you go through your morning routine. Today you put yourself through push ups, isometrics, and a quick jog around the district. Your warm ups breathe freely in the cool morning air, and you bask in the pre-morning hues of dawn.

Its invigorating, more so than usual.

Passing by one of Estra’s garden sanctuaries as you had come to recognize them, you are mildly disappointed he isn’t there. Your mother had informed you that she had to help sort out an issue where two of his younger siblings had shown up on earth and tried to use mind bending magics to trick a woman into believing them to be distant nieces and nephews so they could stay with her.

Unfortunately, the woman they tried that on was your grandmother.

Apparently mind magics don’t work on her. Your mother said she’d explain everything about that later. The two were now staying with Estra, much to his annoyance.

Coming to a stop in front of your family’s home, you wipe the sheen of sweat from your forehead and think. You can be dressed and out the door as Miki with no one seeing you go if you’re quick about it. The meeting isn’t until later and you could use some Miki time around town, or you could go check out the northern shopping district, either to scout or to start trouble with some wannabe yankees who’ve gotten to bold for their own good.

The house is quiet. Dad is asleep. Your sister is sleeping. Luna and lil Diana are sleeping. Mom is...surprisingly awake and in the garden.

>Go put on your face as Miki and slink out. Where are you going first?
>Go get changed and introduce your mother to your hobby, might be worth a laugh.
>No, there is something else I need to do first. What?
>Make some breakfast. Your usual or something else?
>Write in
>>
>>33339262
>Make some breakfast. Your usual or something else?
Also, how hungry are we?
>>
>>33339367
You could feed, not stuffed anymore
>>
>>33339262
Question: Have we taken time to start meditating with our Generals? I recall there being bonus spells for that on the sheet, but we never had time during the Longest Day.
>>
>>33339691
As it is a new day you can choose to meditate with your generals to gain access to extra spells known for the day. You can only hold 2 spells from the generals at this time. If you would like to you may write it in and specify which General you would like to meditate on.

Part of me really wants Jadeite's feedback on this.

Thinking of which, how have we and the Shitennou been adapting to each other? Tuesday was.. busy, but we seemed to be doing alright.
>>
>>33339752
So we can't hold a variable spell from all of them at once.
2 spells, does that mean two Generals, or that we're up to 2 spells from one General instead of 1?
>>
Just going to post this gemstone because my first thought after 'Wow that looks cool' was wondering what kind of Shitennou would go with it.
>>
Discuss things amongst yourselves for a bit, getting food. Will answer when home.
>>
>>33339262
>>33339752
I might suggest Jadeite today, since I'm curious about his thoughts on being other people.

Though I might suggest that for the past days of the week we'd been meditating with Nephrite, since we're thinking about letting Kairi carry him it seems good to spend time getting to know him better.
>>
>>33339367
Toast for breakfast
>>
>>33339262
Do meditating with Shitennou thing folk are talking about.
Make some breakfast, bring some out to mom and chat a bit. Is a bit odd for her to be up early, and it could be good to chat with her more in general.
Undecided on telling her about Miki.
>>
>>33340123
Personally, I think secrets are fun. We're not hurting anyone by having a portfolio of alternate faces.
>>
>>33340123
What is a simple breakfast that you can eat outside with your mom?

>>33340039
Perhaps a breakfast sandwich?
Couple slices of toast, fried egg, and a breakfast meat. Shouldn't skimp too much on breakfast, it is the most important meal of the day. Particularly is we're active.
>>
>>33340222
Toast. It is perfect
>>
>>33340215
Aye, feel similarly. I mean even other people in that group aren't super-open about when not 'in character'.

Though there might be a value in letting mom know we have more interests and friends.

On the alternate faces front, I'm more concerned about maintaining Eclipse. Kanari gave us a hard look while pressed into our boob, and with our sister out of town the number of red-eyed women in town with a possible connection to the scouts probably low.

That and there's that problem with Clark Kent ducking out every time Superman is around, it get suspicious without a double handy to throw people off.

Wish we could do an astral project like our dad, would make being in two places at once easier.
>>
Back. You can have spells from more than one of the Four Kings at any one time as long as you put the meditation time in listed in the character sheet for each one conferred with.
>>
>>33340403
Seems really light for girl that just did an active workout, need some protein in that too.
Though a nice piece of rye bread pan toasted with butter would be a nice cornerstone to any breakfast.
>>
>>33340461
In which case, I kinda feel like we should meditate with all of them, and I feel like doing it at one of those nice garden spots Estra has set up.
We've probably been doing it the rest of the week cooped up in our room, seems like that would be a nice change of pace.

Also a morning mental chat with advisers, and hopefully friends, seems like a good way for a Princess of Elysium to start the day.
Like a magical cabinet meeting.
>>
So, its looks like a pan toasted bread sandwich of egg and bacon is for breakfast?

And you want to find a nice quiet place to meditate with your Shintennou and then have one on one mental meditation with Jadeite to pick his brain and get some spells?
>>
>>33340813
Sounds good to me, though I want to bring a sandwich to mom and chat a bit too.
>>
>>33341000
>>33340813
Seems like a lot, but is there any reason we can't?
Say 30-40 to breakfast and mom chat, an bit to get dressed and slip out, and 40 minutes to mediate outside (I'm favoring hitting one of Gai's quiet spots) before heading off for a day of stuff?
>>
>>33341284
>>33340673
Getting dressed.. as Miki first?
Hm. Could be an odd encounter were he or his siblings to drop in while being a meditating ganguro girl.
Or an uneventful and pleasant place to do it if no one unexpected shows up.

..I'm ok with this.
>>
>>33341366
Because its boring and tiring, and people will think Mikage has gone flaky if shes meditating all the time
>>
>>33341897
I'd say centering and relaxing myself, but the change of location seemed like a nice idea.
I guess if we actually dress as Miki instead of just disguise penning, I guess it would be more practical to change before leaving.
>>
>>33339195
Aw, I had hoped to science the epipens and inert shadowstuff. Also would mean getting access to equipment from Tomoe., or sneaking in. Either way, a fun exercise.
I bet folks forget that we have a knack for academics as well.

Turning on the stove and getting the rarely used large griddle up from beneath the sink, you fry a few eggs, pan toast a few slices of bread, and let a few strips of bacon come to a sizzle. With a little time, the application of a scant amount of pepper, and a spatula you soon have two plated sandwiches.

One for your and your hard morning workout, and one for your mother. Its nice to see her up and about in the morning, its so rare. Taking off the windbreaker of your warms ups, you pick up both plates and head into the garden.

~Morning mom,~ you smile, ~breakfast?~

She looks up from a bed of lilies slightly confused, but perks into a smile when she sees you. Skipping over to you, she halts as you offer the sandwich plate to her and picks it up carefully. Sitting on a bench in the garden, the two of you enjoy breakfast together in silence. Your mother, true to form, finishes hers in a few quick bites.

“Ah, that really hit the spot,” she chirps.

Taking your time with you sandwich, you turn to your mother and try to get to the bottom of how the hell she’s awake at this hour.

~So, you’re up early,~

Her response is immediate and excited.

“Yeah. Your father was so worried last night about what you told us about the enemy. It was all I could do to calm his nerves and-,” she pauses and stares at you for a long second as though she had realized something before a red blush reaches across her cheeks and she laughs nervously, “-just get to bed early. Yup. Went to bed early and just woke up all full of energy!”

You don’t want to know.

~So, how’s the gardening?~

Trading quick words with your mother you while the time away. Eventually asking about what happened with Gai’s siblings and your grandmother.
>>
>>33343141
“Oh, it was quite the disaster. I thought they’d chosen the house at random, turns out they divined the safest location for them to go that night,” she smiles, “I guess fate really wanted to reunite them with their big brother and give them the chance to meet me,”

~How mad was grandma?~ you hazard a guess that she was furious.

“She calmed down, but gave them a very stern talking to. When he finally showed up, she made Ginja-kun promise to make sure they got severely punished for their misconduct. Though she was flattered they thought her young enough to call her ‘Auntie’,” she giggles, “I hope he’ll be able to manage them. They seemed quite energetic,”

~I’m sure he’ll be fine,~ you muse, mostly because he is accustomed to dealing with many more siblings.

“I still feel bad about it. Apparently he might have to move into a larger apartment. The time off from school will help him handle that, but he was worried about getting their paperwork in order and adjusting his income,”

~Isn’t he just going to forge it like his own paperwork?~

“Still a hassle. It isn’t like there’s a legitimate way for him to live here,” your mother nods in certainty.

~No, I guess not,~

Finishing your sandwich you give your mother a hug and say you’re going to get changed. You’ve got a busy day ahead of you and you can’t dawdle much longer.

“Look at you. Less than a week and you’re already stepping out and living your life,” you mother sighs, “and here I thought you’d venture out of your room more but take to the world more slowly,”

~That sounds suspiciously selfish,~ you comment as you take her plate back.
>>
>>33343167
“What, a mother can’t enjoy her eldest daughter’s company and look forward to spending time with her. Helping her rediscover her hobbies? Cooking together,” she counts off on her fingers before looking sheepish and laying her hands in her lap, “I was really looking forward to cooking together. Making cookies like when you were little,”

~You only want that because you always burn them without me,~

“...Maybe,”

~How about later tonight after I get home,~ you smile at her and she perks right up.

Parting ways with your mother, you head upstairs and pull a number of articles out of your closet. Your secret makeup kit, a tankini, and a pair of particularly short cut off jean shorts. Getting undressed you apply a base oil to your skin and throw on your robe after it’s had a chance to sink in. A while back, you mixed the ink from your disguise pen with a blend of a few different types of spray on tans. Applying them together in the shower gave you a cover that stained your skin for several hours and didn’t smear.

Lathered, cleaned, and with your new temporary tan you head back into your room and get dressed. Taking care to apply your makeup, you line your eyes and then spread a pale foundation across the skin beyond the liner, all against your newly darkened skin. Fishing out just the right shade of pink lipstick, you purse your lips and apply it. Your eyelashes always take the longest, but before much longer you are able to fold your hair up beneath a wig cap and attach your blonde wig.

When you first started out as Miki, you relied heavily on the actual use of the disguise pen, now you’re a pro at this particularly awesome look. Sliding into your sandals, you grab Miki’s purse and put your tools back into the closet.

Standing in front of the full length mirror on the back of your bedroom door, you appreciate your handiwork. The slight changes to your physiology help accentuate Miki’s look. You don’t think she or yourself have ever looked better. Swapping out your cellphone case for something pink and sparkly, you get ready to head out. Doing one last retouch of your lipstick as your bedroom door unexpectedly opens.

“Mikage. I wanted to talk to you about what you told your mother about what Dark Helios revealed to you in the dre-” Luna pauses and stares at you.

And stares.

And stares.

One paw at a time she slowly backs out of the room.

Well...that was frightening.

>Head, like, to one of Gai’s gardens to meditate. They are totally peaceful and there’s a nice chance Gai might not be. Peaceful that is, oh you could just eat him up.
>Meditate in Mom’s garden, after explaining to her why you are rocking this number.
>Psha, head somewhere spiritual and junk for this. Auntie Rei’s Shrine would totally work for that.
>Hide in plain sight and Meditate and confer with your four generals at the Crowne arcade, and flirt a bit with the cutie at the smoothie bar if he’s on today.

Why...why do I feel like I’m in the wrong head all of the sudden?
>>
>>33343234
>>Head, like, to one of Gai’s gardens to meditate. They are totally peaceful and there’s a nice chance Gai might not be. Peaceful that is, oh you could just eat him up.
Oof, we really do dive into personas a bit.
Yeah, after Luna's reaction I think we should go ahead out and try explaining it to mom while dressed normally sometime, day, or never.

Though the Crown is tempting.
>>
>>33343190
>I've updated my journal.
>>Make cookies with mom tonight.

>>33343234
Guess we've done a decent job of hiding it until now, then again we pretty much were acting like we hated Luna so I guess she hadn't been walking in on us much the past year and a half.
Before this I was thinking we might talk to mom about it.. but now my mind can't picture it.
Plain sight and meditating seems a bit brash, but that might just be to Miki's liking.

I guess the question is, do we feel like playing to Miki's tastes or being a little more sensible and hitting one of Gai's spots in seclusion?

>Jadeite! What do you think?
>>
>>33343190
>“I was really looking forward to cooking together. Making cookies like when you were little,”
Added to the quest log!

>>33343234
>Head, like, to one of Gai’s gardens to meditate. They are totally peaceful and there’s a nice chance Gai might not be. Peaceful that is, oh you could just eat him up.
And if he fails to penetrate our disguise, we can have fun teasing him!
>>
Obviously we're just practicing our disguise techniques for use in helping the sailor scouts
>>
Come to think of it, if we transform into Eclipse with all this makeup on, do we still have the high powered spray tan? I mean, Jupiter suspects us already.
>>
>>33343984
Hm. Actually, increased sightings of red-eyed girls could work in our favor.
Get Miki some face time, then rough-up thugs as the Red-Eyed Beast. Raise a little misinformation about how many red-eyed lasses are about.

I'd wager the Eclipse form helps conceal details, though a tan would likely go well with it.
>>
>It's back
First Bleach Quest and now this?
Feels good.
>>
After recovering from the staredown, you slip downstairs and out of the house. You leave your mother none the wiser to your look as your stride out of the house and walk down the street proudly. The brazen and immorally dressed young beauty that you are draws eyes in the late morning, the straps of your heeled sandals tensing as your hips sashay to the unheard song announcing your arrival.

Its summery. Its fun. At least that’s how you imagine it to be.

An older woman in a sports bra and bike shorts jogs past you. Pausing to looks at you with a certain degree of frustration before she charges on in a redoubled effort for her workout.

Was that...no way, Principal! HA!

That’s right, making old ladies jealous because you are fine.

Giggling to yourself and flipping your hair, you stride into one of the small public gardens that bleeds with Estra’s unique flavor of energy. It suffuses the place with a delightful calm. Removing your sandals you sit on the edge of a fountain and set your bare feet in the cool water and center your breathing.

Around you the Four Kings Manifest as the world falls away.

<Princess,> they speak as one.

~Good morning,~ you chirp, ~So, like, new business,~

They all look at you strangely. Zoisite is the first to shake off the confusion.

<My my, our lady has quite the talent for disguises,> he laughs.

>What do you confer with your generals about.

~Jadeite. I will confer with you today privately. I wish your insight on a few matters~

>What do you meditate upon with Jadeite?
>>
>>33344546
Another returns to the hive! We grow in power and wisdom! And stubbornness and strife...
HAIL!
>>
>>33344616
They live in our head, and we just got them to do a double-take. Today is a good day. Nothing can stop us today.
>>
>>33344616
Better disguises
>>
Where is everyone?
>>
>>33344616
>>What do you confer with your generals about.
Keiko. Thoughts on discussing who she is with her.
Anything learned from Heilos' and Jo's escape?
And the old standby, Kairi and Nephrite.
Any other thoughts and strategies they my have are fine too.

>>What do you meditate upon with Jadeite?
On being other people. Good, bad, neutral? Pointers?
>>
>>33345180
I was halfway through typing up a nearly identical list to this.
There is one thing I'd add, but, thinking on it, our dad would probably be able to answer it better.

Oh hey, shit, I totally forgot we need to try to find the other half of the Golden Crystal too.
We should talk about that too.

Probably should track reports of someone having mysterious illness at that time, it can't be healthy for them.

Hrn, also should check with Helios about that at some point.. which likely will involve us needing to speak to him as the Heir of Elysium and wanting to hold on to the half we have. Should be.. interesting, but we shouldn't put it off, someone's live and the safety of the Crystal could be at stake.

I hear Miki's voice like this.

She sounds like Morrigan from this.

~So, I’m like waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay worried about Keiko. I mean, Beryl was probably the worst and I think all of you know a ton of helpful stuff about her. ‘Kay?~

Zoisite laughs as Kunzite steps forward.

<Beryl once subsumed her reincarnation in the last cycle before she corrupted us again. That the Sugimoto girl has proven to have resisted this call since childhood is a great indicator that she can be saved,> the white haired general explains in a bow.

<Actually, the greatest problem is that Queen Bitch isn’t just memories of a past life...she’s autonomous to the girls own thoughts from the sound of it. She needs to be put down or subsumed into Keiko, before she overtakes Keiko and wrests control,> Zoisite calms his nerves from laughter and grows serious.

~Ugh, does that mean I need to, like, go into Keiko’s dreams,~ you click your tongue, ~That sounds super dangerous and invasive. Fighting Beryl on her own turf,~

<Yes, but if you bolster her resolve...her heart, she will stand a chance. Prepare her for it. Make her aware of the danger,> Nephrite comments, <And show her she does not face it alone,>

<The girl trusts Eclipse,> Jadeite scoffs, <To conquer Beryl you must use that, but her attraction to your alter ego is too far steeped in superficial obsession to merit any true strength. She needs love, or friendship. Her friend, Jade, is confidant and dedicated. She might be useful,>

~Hmm….I might have to totally approach them after the meeting,~ you muse and chew on your thumb, ~Okay then what about other disasters of possession. Namely my BFF Kairi,~
>>
>>33347355
<She would lose herself to stand by your side, that is a dedication worthy of your court and guard. Though I am remiss for the sake of her mother, I would be more than willing to guide her to that knighthood,> Nephrite says in a low bow, <As we are now, we can be of limited use to your protection, but in allowing her and any other willing to take the cause, we can safeguard them from their own reckless nature and better protect you as well,>

~And, you won’t die? Again? That would totally bum me out,~

<Er...no,> Jadeite explains, <She would be slower to come into her powers than our direct sacrifice if we instead act as guides and conduits,>

<Not implanted as we are with you. I think I’d like to be a ring instead of just a stone this time,> Zoisite muses,<Oh! Kunzite! We could be matching necklace halves,>

The white haired general smiles at the slightly built man beside him.

~Right. I guess we’ll have to keep a super close eye on people,~ you sigh, ~I am super unhappy about dragging someone else into this war, but Kairi was bound for it one way or another. I told her the truth...so it’s my fault. This is a totally important responsibility,~

<I shall protect her well, your highness,>

~So. Any additional news about Helios’s escape? Anyone eavesdropping downstairs when no one thought anyone was listening. I don’t mind gossip, especially if its juicy,~

<She is really taking to the role quite well,> Jadeite says to Zoisite.

<uh huh,> Zoisite sighs, <All we know is that your mother is conferring with PIT about it. The information sharing between them is slow and tentative...but the Original Mercury is working on site at PIT headquarters on something, a project which has been moved up in light of an attack,>

~Oh?~
>>
>>33347381
<Sailor Pluto was brought in late last night by Uranus and Neptune. Your mother is keeping it low key as not to frighten you and the girls,> Kunzite explains, <They are planning countermeasures and have plans to brief you and the girls along with PIT command in a larger meeting once everything is set,>

~Hmph. I can’t really fault my mom for keeping secrets. She’s soooooo disarming, you forget she’s way more than just a totally crazy and immature mom,~ you lament before lifting the white locket from where it had fallen within your tankini propped cleavage, ~Oh yeah, like, we need to keep a keen eye out for the rest of this,~

<Yes. The crystal is important. It’s fate is one with the very earth itself. Though I am remiss to say that at this time it is nowhere in Japan,> Nephrite hangs his head in shame.

~Well we’ll just have to broaden our search then. Dad’ll help, for sure,~ you take a deep breath and compose yourself, ~So, briefing is dismissed. Jadeite, sit with me and tell me of your magic and your craft,~

The others disappear, and it is only the two of you in the cool fountain.

>Minor Image and Ventriloquism added to spell list for the day.

You come out of your world of inner light and feel the stone inside of you pulsing, filling your veins with magical knowledge to your benefit and control. The power to create illusory images.

Sliding your eyes open the mid morning sun is above the line of hedges. Hmmm, this is actually the park you met Gai in that time. Where he showed off his true form in over eager ease. What a dope, cute, but a dope. Then again you wouldn’t mind taking a bite out of him once he got good and flustered.

I can’t tell if I’m making a euphemism or just gearing up to drink the cute alien boy. Wait, didn’t we promise Kairi we had no intentions for him?

~Nothing serious, just a little snack. She’d totally understand,~ you assure yourself.

Okay then, look sharp. Walking buffet at 9 o’clock

~Its barely even eight,~ you pout while checking your watch- oh.

He’s right over there with a watering can. This just taking care of the plants. He really does invest a lot of himself into these little sanctuaries. Its so cute to find a boy that cares, especially if he’s easy on the eyes. His mood is easy. You imagine he doesn’t bat an eye at your appearance because...well like he’d know anything about human normality.

>Go and flirt with him, genuinely. What do you say?
>Go and flirt with him, see if we can make him uncomfortable. What do you say?

>>33348155
Gah... on the one hand, I totally wanna troll him. His reactions are just so delicious, and I'm honestly curious whether he could recognize us in this disguise.

But Kairi's our wingman. You don't do shit that would block your wingman.
>>
>>33348155
>Just be on your way with a friendly wave.
If we want to genuinely flirt, we might want to admit some interest to Kairi first. No fair striking while she's grounded.
Trolling him.. I'm not sure he'd know, he does seem to be kind of a doof that way. A cute doof perhaps.
Maybe chat if he tries striking up a conversation.
But as much as I'm curious how things are going with his siblings, getting into the whole who we are things seems a bit much right now.
>>
>>33348410
I wonder if she'd be interested if she knew how many siblings he has. That kind of fecundity might run in the family, y'know.

>>33348155
>>Just be on your way with a friendly wave.

With a suggestive smile and a wave you leave the park for the train station. The desire to fuck with the earnest alien cuties is strong, but you stow it away. So maybe as Miki you can admit to thinking Gai had potential, that is something to talk to about with Kairi...preferably after you had your hands on her dose of instant monster.

Gai waves back, ever the epitome of politeness and friendly manner. Actually he seems a bit tired. Probably to be expected with while dealing with two younger and probably more energetic siblings. One was almost too much for you when you were younger.

Hmmm, since you’re heading in early you’ll take the bus. You’ll be less likely to have to deal with someone getting grabby. Hmmm, though if anyone does get handsy you can readily break every bone in their hand, the thought of such violence prompts you to giggle a bit. Maybe you need some time as Red Eyes later...hmmm, you’ve still got a few hours to kill.

We promised. And if we're coming out about the disguise thing later, he might mistake it for interest and we'll fuck up everything for Kairi.

No, if anything we'll just be friendly. No need to ruin nice things if we don't have to.

I'd be willing to bet we might run into some of our group there. Midori might even be kitting out Keiko for her first meet up.
>>
>>33348844
If we were looking for a fight, I might suggest just going straight in as Red-Eyes and hunt from the rooftops.
Might not want to scare too many off, maybe just enough to encourage them to bring more around tomorrow. As a I recall we were trying to do a thrash-a-thon then and trying to get @ivandragowasright to join us.

Hmm, like...maybe you need to work off a bit of stress before you can properly enjoy Shibuya. It might be a bit unfair, but today you’ll unleash a bit of your inner beast after all. Ducking into an alleyway and whipping the disguise pen out of your purse, you depress the back and let its magic swirl and consume you and the bubbly identity and being you let yourself become fades.

You imagine yourself as terror. You imagine yourself as hatred. You will yourself to become your own embodiment of violence and superiority.

You will sow fear, and now you can reap it as well. This city, its afraid of you. Your name echoes around you as the dark blue uniform manifests and your darkened skin becomes even more pale than it was before.

As you fall out of the light you land in a low crouch with your hands on the ground. Your hair is long and black, bangs obscuring your face. You lick your lips and smile, fangs exposed and long.

Opening your mouth, you lick the tips of the incisors and smile. Now, you hunt.

You hunt those bitches who thought they were good enough to break your rules. Bad boys and girls deserve to be punished.

~Painting the roses red,~ you sing off key as you scale a fire escape and listlessly drift from rooftop to rooftop.

Speed isn’t important, you know when you have to go...and you can never rush a good hunt.

Especially when you want them to be afraid.

Your eyes glow as you snicker skipping the gap between two buildings. Today will be fun.

Interludes go at the beginning of the next thread, generally. Though maybe if we keep the thread alive and chatting maybe he'll toss in an omake or something.

>>33355204
Vaguely concerned. I enjoy crawling inside roles and characters, but even thinking privately to herself is some deep level method actor stuff.
Daniel Day-Lewis whose take pride in her dedication to the role.

..Though she probably developed that to the exclusion of her actual self back when her actual self didn't believe she deserved to have friends or let loose, so she has roles that are so deep that she doesn't think about her self and her problems. Honestly, that's probably the same way she stays level headed as Eclipse too.
Seems like we do need to work on reconnecting her with herselfs (selves?, bah).
At the moment, even without magic protections, I don't think anyone probing her mind would see any more than just the character she is at the time.
Which makes me concerned that we just unleashed a supernaturally enhanced version of the Beast.

Red Eyes does now have access to a wider number of skills and an actual hunger for fear. Also magic, invisibility, illusions, and fangs.

Did we cover the fangs?

You aren't done with earth, you're just going to put the fear of multiple gods into a varied bunch of delinquents.

Omake!

You are Kanagami Kaneda, crouched silently behind the convenience store of the northern shopping district of Juuban. an average student who comes from a house of working class means. Something bad happened at school this week, so there were no Saturday morning classes. Not one to dwell on things, all you knew was that someone in the next class over was attacked by something and it blew out a wall.

Feh.

You've never been a stranger to weird stuff happening. Life in middle school had been hounded by witnessing and just barely avoiding being caught in the midst of monster attacks around town.

It got so bad you started avoiding going to school, so when high school started, you were a model delinquent who kept his grades up enough to be left alone. Having fallen in with the wrong crowd, you started shaking down people for money, they wouldn't want a kid who lost their cellphone to be unable to call their mom, right?

That and more aggressive rackets lined your pockets...until she came along.

That inhuman monster. A flurry of quiet snarls and painful drop kicks.

The Beast.

No one knew where the little girl had come from, but she established the rules right quick.

No one does business in Juuban. Juuban is neutral territory. No shake downs, no protection, no violence.

You could loiter. You could smoke. You could be a complete ass, but start a row or make a fuss and she would find you.

Red Eyes that can see weakness. Red Eyes that can smell fear.

Heh, those Primrose girls don't know who they had messed with. Main reason you avoided their temporary turf, you don't want to see the Beast again. No that's not right.

lighting up, you chuckle nervously.

You don't want to be seen by the Beast. Not again. For all the terror she inspired, for the shoulder still sore from when she dislocated it last year...you couldn't help but admit that she was cute.
>>
>>33366153
In a purely aesthetic way. Her eyes were just so big and her skin, what little showed, was pale and flawless. Her laugh, it was primal and kind of beautiful.

No one had seen her without that surgical mask of her's. So there was a good chance she wasn't cute...but you wanted to believe she was.

It brought you no end of ridicule, you apparently wouldn't shut up about it while you lay among your defeated peers with a mild concussion. The Beast probably heard about it by now, wouldn't that be embarrassing.

Putting the butt out against the wall, you lean back and laugh.

~Where are the Primroses~ a voice hisses from nowhere.

Startled, you stand up and look either way down the alley.

Nerves...it's just nerves. Running a hand through the stubble on your crew cut you settle your unease.

~I asked you a question~

She's standing in front of you, invading your personal space, and without her mask. She...she just appeared out of thin air. She...she...she's-

"Ka...ka..." You stutter.

She tilts her head impatiently.

~Yes, I am scary~ she growls...does she have fangs? ~now where are the primroses?~

You point west.

"Two blocks, behind the MgRonalds," you say shakily.

~Good boy,~ she smiles in smug victory before turning and charging down the alley.

Her hair trails and whips behind her like the fluttering feathers of a raven in flight.

You slump against the alley floor.

"Kawaii" you mutter...happy and terrified at the same time.
>>
I admit, that was weak. Next time I Omake it'll be funnier.
>>
>>33366184
Ha! Awesome.
(Why no surgical mask?)
>>
>>33367083
That was fun, I feel bad for the primroses, though.

I really shouldn't because they're jerks and scum, but at the same time I doubt they expected magical monsters to come after them.
>>
OMAKE!

"Alright Girls, I'm going to teach you how to cook!" Kanari Kino declares whilst pumping her fist in victory.

"Alright! I wanna bake my mommy a cake!" The youngest Senshi cries in excitement.

"Mhmm, and I want to learn how to make chocolate! Valentines day could be just around the corner for all we know!"

The three girls stand before the counter, tying up their hair and fixing their aprons.

"Cake and home made chocolate are a bit advances. How about we start with omelette rice," the talented thunderer diplomatically explains.

Off in the living room of the Kino residence the black haired inheritor of Mars turns to the blue haired girl next to her.

"Aiha, we should get out of here,"

"Why, Rin-chan? I'm mildly curious to learning Kanari-chan's recipe even if I already know how to cook," the blue haired girl looks up from her book and blushes, "though if she could teach me to make home made chocolate..."

"That's not why I think we shou-"

"THE RICE IS ON FIRE!"
"NO! What are you, STOP DESTROYING MY MOM'S KITCHEN!"
"WaaaaaaaaaaaH! I got egg in my wig,"

"-ld leave,"

The two sit silently for a moment, watching the chaos.

"There's a sample event at the Yogurt Bar," Aiha offers.

"Sounds like a plan,"

They were both pretty great. Also thinking about it with the Interlude now...totally didn't occur to me that would could cause Kanari to feel undermined by our presence.
>>
>>33374088

Kanari's got her hands full being the sanest Senshi.

Also, she should know better than to let Koyomi near a kitchen.
>>
>>33370645

So, let's talk about some good HMS shipping then.

Koyomi: she's crushing on two older guys and Kanari's brother, that we know of. Koito is Tsun for the blond klutz. Gai hasn't notice any female attention. Yeon has had too little screen time.

Aiha: her building friendship seems cute, they're both accustomed to being outsiders and I can see it going somewhere, also titling that interlude purple was just asking for it. Her and Mikage might be weird, once she finds out that Mikage and is Eclipse there may be a big "I hope Senpai notices me," vibe.

Kairi: I like the idea of her going after Estra, but Koito has been obviously all pawing for her attention. Senpai worship of Kairi just can't eclipse his Tsundere for Koyomi, can it? Estra/Gai might well remain oblivious, but he's only non human.
>>
>>33376367

Now let's open the grand can of worms that is Mikage.

She's attracted to Gai, and hungers for his emotional distress.

Yeon, who we've barely interacted with, thinks Miki is hot, and she wouldn't mind flirting with him.

That adversarial moment between her and Yoshi on the train felt reminiscent of early Usagi Mamoru interactions.

That punk who thinks Red Eyes is cute.

@ivandragowasright has similar tastes in comics to Mikage & likes violence as much as Red Eyes, wants to throw down with the scariest girl in Tokyo.

Aiha is cute rushing on Eclipse, though I think that relationship would be too awkward.

Keiko's infatuation with her heroic prince is of course hilarious, though it seems superficial at best.

Kairi has a certain chemistry with Mikage, and they both bring a ton of baggage to the table. Even if their best ship is Friendship.

Thanks guys, I just thought it could have been sillier.

>>33376367
I feel like this analysis is missing the potential represented by Gai's little brother and sister. It seems inevitable that they'll meet the new senshi too, and while I haven't got a clear image of their ages... if Koyomi isn't interested in Gai's little brother, Venus might be.
>>
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Ah, Terra and Venus might be cute, though Striel might get jealous of her twin brother having fondness for someone else.
>>
>>33376367
Missed one, Koito also has a thing for the previous Sailor Moon as well (ie Mikage Sailor Moon)
>>
There isn't a love triangle here, it's a love web.
>>
>>33379611
inorite? It'd be adorable.

And she deserves to find love before she dies of Space AIDS

>>33380510
I thought the clues suggested that Venus-chan had brain cancer.
>>
>>33380510
Yeah. We'll see if that's...in the cards.

Crap, just remembered a forgotten To Do list item.
Locate Node.
>>
>>33381485
So, players, what is on Mikage's To Doblist at this time?
>>
>>33380728
Ouch. Ouch, man. That was physically unbearable
>>
>>33381791
Let's see..

I guess we're scaring a couple Primroses.
Meeting with the Fashion Circle and hanging with Midori and Keiko as Miki.
Need to work out an approach for informing Keiko about Beryl and helping support Keiko against her, keep her good, etc. May involve Midori.
If we have anything left in our position to do science to, we should get lab access and science it.
At some point we need to bust out Locate Node and investigate results. Tonight perhaps?
See if we successfully goaded @ivandragowasright into a punk thrashing competition Sunday, or otherwise try to meet.
Meet Helios, perhaps as Eclipse, to discuss Golden Crystal, finding the other half, and Elyisum. If Usa doesn't tell him, at least we'll be the only one feeling awkward.
When Kairi is free, discuss Nephrite.
And general trying to find out more about our opponents, ancient Earth Kingdom stuff, and tracking down threats to the Scouts.
>>
>>33382885
We should probably fit in some regular hanging out with Kairi and the younger Scouts as well. And Usagi was practically begging to have a baking session with us.
We should probably make sure to get in some face time with Little Diana too. No idea how fast moon cats grow, but we should have a few things in common.
>>
Looking at the wide assortment of powers available...how do we want to use them to scare the primroses?

We've been mundanely pulling shit on people just with, I assume, Jump active in the past and really good normal stealth rolls.

Now we can become invisible. Control Shadows, have fangs, make illusions, manifest shadowy monsters that move as we direct and menace, and all manner of spooky shit.

This could be the perfect explosion of freak out we could deliver. How though...how far do we take it?
>>
>>33383259
Oh yeah totally can't forget cookies tonight with mom!
>>
As I finish watching a tournament, I find myself wondering is Aiha has any interest in Starcraft.
A bit of precog and her smarts could go far.
>>
>>33383921
Use misdirection to appear as though two places at once?
>>
>>33377847
My opinion:

Why care about anyone's affections when we have Drago?
>>
>>33386962
Because his one true love is CQC. There's no room for a third party.
>>
>>33386998
He loves CQC, we love CQC

I don't see the conflict of interest
>>
>>33387019
Wife and mistress in the same bed... I do believe one of our other alternate personas would be into that.
>>
>>33387120
I think that would be husband and gigolo in the same bed, and us with a comfortable seat to watch.
>>
>>33384017
What kind do you think we should make?
Sugar cookies?
>>
Yes, CQC and sugar cookies.

Important things.
>>
>>33391823
CQC with sugar cookies!
The Primroses will never want to know what hit them!

Pardon me while I'm over here holding my sides.

I can see her plotting this. I can see it ending terribly. Step 1; attempt to seduce boyfriend with other persons. Step 2; call boy out on it. Step 3; forget plan, just have fun with it. Step 4; fallout...

And it all continues into trying to convince whichever guy you guys have focused on into being that comfortable involving another.

Your pimp fu will blot out the sun and leave even Koyomi behind.

Actually, on this expanded topic, I can see @ivandragowasright thinking Miki is a frivolous and immoral woman, this view additionally adjusted by his natural distaste/trauma in regard to blondes.

...also, so many other funny little interpersonal hilarities based on pairings you have all guessed at and joked about.


This has taken a few funny if not lewd twists in my mind tonight, time to step back.

Goodnight all, continue your discussions as this thread sinks into the next morning.
>>
>>33392195

Though which two personas would we match up against which guys? And which guys would we subsequently try to drag to Mikage's bed together? Also, what about Usa's line about Hotaru not being able to see us as too far removed a person from Usa? I've seen enough anime to guess where that could go.

I guess we have a shot of getting Gai in bed with another guy with Mikage.

They may look like cute, innocent smiles... but they're sharing a yaoi manga.

There was clearly a point this could have stopped, but we have left that far behind.

>>33395935
your friends don't dance and if they don't dance Well they're no friends of mine?

>>33395935
Good morning to you too.

Good morn and sage.

27 in a few short hours

> I can see @ivandragowasright thinking Miki is a frivolous and immoral woman

Considering that we're having this discussion, is he really wrong?

Sage post. Linking new Thread

Let this one sink into the darkness
