From her perch amidst the branches of a lovely old tree, Carmeltazite stretched her arms out over her head and considered her options. There was a fairly weak Order aura somewhere in the area, though it felt like it might be just on the edge of her range. So, she could either be a good little drone and go hunting. She could stay right where she was and ignore it since she was in the middle of reading a spicy fic and wanted to see where it was heading. Or, xshe could stay where she was, put the fic away and see if the aura's owner came to her instead.
And she already knew which choice her superiors would expect her to make.
Groaning and grumbling, she put her baby laptop away and descended from the branches. Once on the ground, she tilted her head and closed her eyes, wanting to concentrate on the aura for a moment. Then, once she was reasonably satisfied with her guess at location, she jogged off towards it.

What was that? It was driving her crazy! It felt kind of like Hestia, but different? It was definitely not someone she wanted to encounter, but she had a feeling she had no choice. Andromeda could either seek them out or they would inevitably find her, and she had a feeling if she could sense them, they could also sense her. She had checked alleys, she had checked rooftops, she'd even peeked in windows of shops and restaurants to see if someone was causing problems. Nothing. " Where the hell..." This park was her last hope. It felt a little stronger here, like she was closer. And suddenly it felt like they were closer.. and closer... and closer?! Ohhh no. Oh no oh no. She was not as ready for this as she thought she was. With the energy signature getting closer by the second she moved quickly, darting out of the way to duck behind some hedges. Gloved hands reached through to attempt to push open just enough space for her to peek through and see who would come running up.

Casually summoning her furby and gently tossing it from hand to hand, Carmeltazite was the picture of no ******** being given at all. She'd already slowed from a jog to strolling. The aura wasn't really going anywhere, in fact it seemed to be actively approaching her location. Idiot moonies, she thought. Just can't help themselves when they think they can play hero. The lieutenant had very definite ideas about what heroics inevitably came to. And she wanted none of it.
Heroics, she thought, were for the terminally stupid and hopelessly romantic.
As she approached the place where the aura felt strongest, she stopped, still tossing the furby to herself. Head tilting, she considered. Aura was strong. Aura wasn't moving. So... someone in hiding or preparing a sneak attack? After another moment's thought, she began laughing. Almost cackling, really.
"You're doing a s**t job at hiding, whoever you are, dipshit," she called mockingly. "I can feel auras too, so you may as well come out and stop bein' such a pansyass." As far as challenges went, it wasn't really the most intimidating. But that was all right. Carmel didn't need to be intimidating. She just needed to be the last one standing.
Eight just for reference, lol Lieutenant Weapon: Furby Baby using the Abyssal color scheme It has no magic, but it does have bright pink glitter eyes that seem to follow your movements and the beak randomly clacks like the battery is dying… Which is really weird since it’s got no batteries in it.

Yeah, no, she had a point. What was Andromeda thinking? Her brow furrowed and her lips pressed in a tight line as she took in the sight of her, looking her up and down. Not a lot of bare skin, just her face and her hands. More important, what the hell was up with that furby? She didn't like the way it looked at her. What the ******** breath, Andromeda. You've got this. She stood up straight and came out from behind the bush, her hands on her hips and her chin raised slightly as she pretended to just be looking at this woman for the first time. " And who are you, exactly? Other than a horse jockey that wanted to cosplay as Henry the eight?" Yeah, that's right. Though she was somewhat genuine at least in the 'who are you' department. She didn't resemble Hestia at all. No wings, no fluffy skirt, no hole into the void in her forehead. She really needed to sit down with someone and get a more comprehensive crash course on their enemies.

The senshi’s appearance and (super lame) attempt at a riposte appeared to utterly delight Carmeltazite as she began to laugh merrily. Amazing. Just absolutely perfect. Then, she stopped laughing abruptly, though she grinned at the senshi as she studied her with eyes as unblinking as the furby’s.
“Is that seriously the best you can come up with, Sparkletits? Eh, I suppose it’s an A for effort, at least,” her voice trailed off for a moment as she really looked at the senshi. Then, in an almost halting tone, “Um. You’re a little old for this s**t, aren’t you? I thought your bunch was all supposed to be a lot of bright-eyed teenagers with attitude and overactive heroism glands. Or am I gettin’ y’all mixed up with Power Rangers again? Not that it matters, I guess. Y’both got the same amount of ********’ ridiculous goin’ for you.”
Deciding that she was extremely bored now with talking, the lieutenant bounced the furby a few times in her hand before suddenly tossing it into the air and launching it like a volleyball at the senshi’s face. She wasn’t too worried about damaging the thing, since if history had proven anything, it was that furbies were resilient as ********. Besides, she could always summon Bonk Daddy back before it hit the concrete.
“Head’s up, Seven-up!” she warbled. “Try not to be too boring, aight?”
Eight I am SO sorry for the delay! Thank you for your patience!

" Sparkletits?" Andromeda repeated with a raised brow. When her ages was brought up she rolled her eyes. " What, you think that time freezes when we awaken and we stay sixteen forever? You don't look like a child yourself." And I'm not even thirty! Same amount of ******** ridiculous? Was this chick for real? She was literally walking around in a glittery costume with a furby. And Andromeda was the weird one here? Be so for real. Her eyes widened as the other woman made a sudden movement. She jumped back, watching the cursed object fly through the air. Oh, what if--Andromeda raised her arms and threw herself back onto them, kicking up her legs in an attempt to slam the furby from hell right back at its owner. She kept going until she was back on her feet again, briefly hopping up onto her toes as if out of habit before settling back down again. Fine, if she wanted a fight. " I'll do my best, maybe I can give you a black eye like I did Hestia." Andromeda answered as she looked the other woman up and down, hopping slightly in place as if ready to pounce at any moment.

"Oh spare me," Carmel shot back, her eyes rolling hard enough to give her some mild concern. All it took was a moment's concentration and Bonk Daddy was back in her hands. So, Chicky Boo was at least a little sensitive about her looks and or age. Filing that knowledge away, Carmel regretted that she wasn't strong enough yet to teleport. Oh man... She could have so much fun if she had access to that trick. As it was, she'd have to settle for good ol' trash talk.
"Do you even listen to yourself," she called, eyes flickering around as she considered her options. "Oh my god, you sound like my granny when she's tryin' to blow sunshine up everyone's a**." Carmeltazite's voice took on a distinctly mocking tone as she charged at the senshi and feinted. "Try your best! Every day is a new opportunity! Take your vitamins and say your prayers! Oh wait, sorry! That last one was Hulk Hogan."
She was close enough now, she thought. Balling up one hand, she went right for the senshi's gut.
"Bee Tee Dubs," she added. "Keep Hestia's name outta your mouth, Grammy-grams. She's five times the senshi you could ever be."
Of course, she had no idea who Hestia actually was beyond knowing that there was a senshi of that name within the ranks of the corrupt. But if this little bit of fluff an' nothing gave her a black eye, then something was wrong with the world.

Andromeda gave the other girl an incredulous, even a little bewildered look. What had she said that had gotten so under this chick's skin? She did take a moment to think back to what she had said thus far. An insult, a question about age freezing... where did the toxic positivity bit come from? " I mean if you want that," she turned on her heel. " I can give you that--" She grunted and doubled over as she was punched in the gut. A hand tightly grasped the wrist of the fist that had punched her, as if trying to counter the move, while the other one suddenly shot up and tried to grab the agent's face. " Andromeda's Sting." Magic tickled over her skin like tiny pinpricks, she could feel it but it didn't hurt her, as if invisible barbs were springing up over bare skin and into the other's. Oh, she seemed annoyed about the Hestia comment. At the very least, her magic felt a little on the okay side today. Not so impressive that Andromeda was going to jump and cheer about it, but at least she could tell it was hopefully going to hurt this time. Quote: Andromeda's Sting! When using her magic, Sailor Andromeda's body becomes as dangerous as a jellyfish's tendrils. Touching exposed skin will feel like a nasty sting for as long as contact is made. The longer a target is held, the more uncomfortable, and painful, the sensation will grow until subsiding on its own. This can be done to as many enemies as she is able to make physical contact with until the magic ends. While not much of an actual fighter; Andromeda's Sting is best used to incapacitate, she holds and someone else punches so to speak. This magic lasts for 30 seconds and can be used 3 times per battle. Players can choose to take lasting damage in the form of residual stings or rashes if they choose.

Gotcha, Sparkles, Carmeltazite thought smugly as her fist connected and the senshi doubled. She wasn't terribly concerned about the finger working themselves under the cuffs at her wrist. The hand reaching for her face was a huge Hell Naw, though. And given their speed and current position she couldn't really whip her head out of the way, just tilt it back a bit. At best, the senshi's grasping hand would land on her neck.
Not great, but given everything she'd seen so far, hardly a problem either.
Or at least, that's what she thought. And then the stinging started and she hissed at the stinging sensation in her wrist and on her neck. Given the senshi's grip on her, she couldn't back away and things got more painful by the second. It took a moment's consideration before she summoned her weapon in her free hand and swung, aiming the furby's full weight for the hand on her wrist. Get rid of that hindrance and she had better options for how to react. Sure, she might hurt herself too, but furby induced bruising was preferable to whatever the ******** the senshi's magic was doing to her.

Yeah, her face had been ambitious. However, her neck would do, even if Andromeda's intent wasn't to choke her out. Her hand tightened around her throat as her magic stung at the other girl's neck, not enough to choke but definitely intending on trying to hold on just for thirty seconds come on...!Ow! The flat bottom of that stupid Furby slammed down on her hand and Andromeda hissed and instinctively made a move to release her, though she also released the other girl's throat at the same time. She did a little hop backwards to put more than an arm's length of distance between the two of them, looking the girl up and down with a critical eye. She needed ideas. Surely this chick wasn't stupid enough to fall for the same move twice. For a brief second a nearby flower bed caught her eye. Ohhh.. if she could get over there, maybe she could 'pocket dirt' her. Like pocket sand. Only. It wasn't sand. And it wasn't going to come from her pocket. Andromeda frowned, raising her fists at the ready to defend herself as she began slowly moving as if to circle around the agent. " What do you want anyway? Do you always just throw children's toys at people minding their own business?"

Gingerly massaging wrist and then neck, Carmeltazite eyed the senshi with something approaching respect. Well, respect adjacent, anyway. She had magic that could hurt, so why was she such a little... well. Pansyass. Even her stance looked like something out of a cartoon. Didn't she know how to actually fight?
Expression going cool and distant, practically businesslike, Carmeltazite simply moved with the senshi. She wasn't moving from where she stood, not yet. But she followed the other woman's slow circling. "You had a good ten seconds of me being vulnerable before I whacked ya," she countered, voice neutral. "Why didn't you try to take me down. You probably could have, y'know. That sting of yours seems like it should be pretty effective."
She continued to watch, carefully making no moves as she considered every move thus far. The senshi had been trying to hide, in spite of the fact that both sides could feel auras. Didn't she know that it wasn't just senshi that were so gifted? And her trash talk was just bad. And that whole 'I'll do my best' bullshit. Now, to Carmeltazite's mind, all of this pointed to a lack of actual confidence. So she relied on bluff and bravado. She could have taken me down. The fact that she hadn't done the sensible thing and gone for a knock out offended the Lieutenant. Not because she necessarily wanted to go home with a busted face, but because this senshi was wasting her time. And the way she was acting now, she was going to continue that trend and no. Just no.
Expression and voice both reflecting her current feelings of disgust for the senshi, Carmeltazite shook her head. "You don't ******** know how to have a proper fight, do you? Little coward, tryin' to hide in the bushes and hope I'd just trip on by. How'd you actually land a hit on Hestia, huh? Didja get one of your bigger and stronger friends to pin her down and let you have the pity punch? All you got is magic that you don't know how to follow up on." Now her voice took on a harsh, mocking ring as she considered her options. She wasn't going to waste the rest of her patrol on this chick. "You ain't even worth the time or effort of tryin' to talk around. Cowardly little girl, probably got a weak, cowardly little starseed not even worth the effort to harvest or turn."
Once more summoning Bonk Daddy, she grinned as she tossed it up in the air as high as it could go and leapt after it, turning just enough to kick out which her foot and send the poor little toy rocketing towards the senshi. And when she landed, she moved quickly, rolling into the overgrowth and moving away from the senshi. After a moment's thought, she willed the furby back to her hand and kept walking.
She really should have just stayed in her tree and kept reading her fic. Well, once she got to where there were more people, she could hide and power down. But goddamn. What a stupid, stupid fight.

... The hell? Was she.. giving her advice on how to fight her? Andromeda suddenly regarded the other girl incredulously, not letting her guard down but trying to figure out her angle. This chick was weird. "... Girl.. are you good?" She finally asked after a moment's consideration. Sure, it was Andromeda's job to fend them off, but she didn't think 'fending them off' meant being unfair in a fight and warlording her like it was some kind of competitive fighting game? Noted, next time just kick her in the face if she even took so much as a breath.
Before she could even move in to take a swing, however, she suddenly went off on another tirade. This girl had some anger issues, huh? She seemed really rage-baitable. Again, noted for the future. Andromeda just let her rant, just staring at her like it was the other chick who was crazy. Because in Andromeda's eyes, she was.
That cursed furby suddenly flew at her face and she whipped out to strike at it, turning quickly to throw her weight into a full punch and get the thing--... away?
"...Oooookaaaay..." Her brow furrowed as she looked around, beginning to back away. "I'm just.. gonna go, I guess... ******** weirdo.." She muttered to herself as she scanned the area but made her way away from the park. Guess that's.. mission success for the day? Maybe that girl was too angry to do her 'job' now.
