Welcome to Gaia! ::

Super Sailor Sinistra was happy that the city was turning its attention to Halloween once again. Her costume was finally seasonally appropriate! Not just because of the heavy fabrics, but the colors and strong Witch theming. As the Senshi of Brooms, she was rather used to constantly being associated with Halloween, and took no offense to it at all. She thought her fuku was rather adorable, all things considered: she just did not seem to stand out quite as much in the fall.

Of course, those first couple of weeks following the end of Halloween were always a tough time. Nothing like being the only one still in costume for a holiday that was already over. It could be worse, though, she thought to herself as she rounded the corner and entered one of them many parks of the surprisingly green city.

She could have been christmas themed.

Humming to herself, she found she was in a very good mood. Probably because she had not yet encountered any Negaverse soldiers or Dark Mirror Senshi. She had not been thrown off a roof in a good while, which was an improvement, and she was feeling very confident in her training sessions with Camelot and Merlinite. Really, she was almost feeling... confident?

A ruslting in the bushes caught her attention, and made her jump with a small sound of surprise. Okay. Maybe confident was still a bit of a stretch.

Sinistra heard a strange thudding and the rustling of a bush nearby, frowning and wondering if someone had fallen into it. Or... next to it, and had set it into motion? It was, after all, a very big rustling. That thought gave her pause, though, and she stared at the bush as it settled into stillness. What if whatever fell in there was not a human, after all? It could be a youma, or worse, a large animal of some sort.

How big did rats get in a magical city? Oh, it was not something she had ever thought about before, and she wished she never had. Grimacing, she begrudgingly moved over to get a better look at the bush in question, only to find someone staring back at her from behind it.

Oh.

Blinking, she did her best to offer a smile, but found herself too baffled to do more than awkwardly purse her lips together and vaguely tug at the corners in an effort to pull them upwards.

"Uhm... h-hello there. I won't hurt you. Are... why are you over there? Aren't you worried you'll get dirty? Oh, dear, your shoes are going to get ruined in that mushy ground!"
