Haha, Mine is just as bad. I'm afraid even the best "Hackers" we have can't fix those. I try to just laugh it off. At least your picture isn't racey, though I must admit the "Taboo" comment does set the imagination ablaze. That could get awkward when someone swipes right.
Someone will do that eventually you know.
[Swallow. Oh, that...]
Ah yes. It wasn't actually a problem. I fell asleep and dreamed of the wedding I'd missed when I was dragged here. I was apparently researching in the fire department, so nobody noticed me in the cocoon.
It's a bit disturbing when it happens, but there was no harm I promise. Wait, Makoto's been talking to you about me?

[Hmm, well that certainly made things abit more difficult. Someone she'd like, who wouldn't be jealous, but at the same time would make Vira-Lorr jealous.]
Anyone would be lucky if they were able to catch Mina-chan.
True, but Usagi is [How could she explain this without giving away all of their secret.] Usagi seems like she's a lot more connected to all of us, and we're all kind of drawn to her. Plus Usagi has never really been on her own before. So it's a lot harder for her.

Eventually, but it isn't like I'm forced to respond to someone who does.
Yes, you seem to have left quite an impression on her.

There's some truth to that. You might not control the little app itself, but you do have all the control over the replies.
Usually.
[Their phones had been hacked in the past.]
She's left a bit of an impression on me. A very endearing young woman. Quite passionate. Definitely a little ball of emotional fire at times.
[She badly wanted to ask what Makoto had said. Instead she settled for...]
I do hope it's a good impression at least.

[Unbeknownst to Makoto, all it really meant was that she wanted someone ready to be steady, which she wasn't sure Minako had been. Ah, but she also didn't want to sound like she was criticizing Minako either. After all, she wanted her to be free too.]
We can certainly agree on that. She's a very attractive and energetic person. I remember that all too well from our brief time here.
[She started to follow up and to the roof access. Thankfully there was one, so that they could enjoy the light show as it neared its zenith. It would be a nice chance to spend time alone.]
I think I understand. And you're a very independent woman yourself. Which is a good trait, but it can also mean you're better able to cope apart from the friends you love, even if you wish to be with them again.

[She tried thinking of who else there might be. Haruka maybe? But she was pretty sure that Haruka would wind up making anyone jealous, even Chibi-usa had been worried when Usagi and Haruka kissed afraid that she'd be stolen away from Mamoru. Rei was already in a relationship, Ami wasn't the kind to really look for one. She was pretty sure that Atsushi really liked Usagi, even if they weren't admitting it.]
You'd probably get along well with Setsuna-san, I don't think I've ever seen her get jealous though she doesn't really seem like the adventurous type.
[Finally they'd made it. Makoto checked to make sure that they wouldn't be locked out, and proper the door open just to be on the safe side as well.]
Well I've lived alone for awhile, so I'm used to it. And I do miss them and like to be around friends, but I'm alright on my own too.

Her personality matches her physical strength, and she does tend to leap before looking when it comes to emotional matters. You should know that Makoto is very protective of those that she holds close.
As for what we were talking about. She was asking a few questions about how well we knew each other. [It wasn't a lie, she had asked whether Vira-Lorr knew about Minako and if she knew about Pluto and the others.]

[Maaan, she would have loved to meet Haruka, but as soon as she learned about Michiru, she would never have been able to think of that. Ah, but she had her own interest at this point, and she'd get around to showing her, she was certain.]
She's a wonderful woman. She reminds me a lot of a friend of mine who's woen up, Moira. Both of them are deeply professional souls with their minds in their studies. I think she's quite adventurous, but perhap not in this way.
[She started to spread the blanket down settling herself onto it in the center and turning around to pat the spot right behind her. Nothing wrong with cuddling close, right?]
Still...I'm glad you aren't alone right now.

I might have noticed that she leaps before looking. It's not a bad trait, as bold as it is, though I do worry for her at times that she might get in over her head. But that passion is something to behold.
Mmm. I confess that I'm pleased she thins of me. I'm sorry I worried her unduly though. It won't happen again if I can help it. Part of me would like to be someone she is so protective about.

I'm glad too, I'm not sure what I would have done without them.
[She was sure that she would have been fine, but the chances were she wouldn't have met a lot of the people that she has. And she probably would have been a lot more secluded trying to figure everything out. But she takes a seat next to Vira, not having any problem at all with the closeness of it.]
I'm glad that we had the chance to meet as well.

I'm sure you would have been fine, but thankfully we don't have to test that.
[She rested her head back, against Makoto's shoulder, and sighed to herself contentedly. A hand reached down and placed itself over the back of the senshi's as the looked up into the night sky and the brilliant, surreal display overhead.]
I am too. I don't know that I would have gotten to share moments like this with anyone else. I am glad we met.

Thankfully.
[She glanced down as Vira-Lorrs hand rested on her own. Makoto didn't move it, but she wondered if she'd down it intentionally. This whole things was starting to seem an awful lot like a date, which made Makoto blush a little. She'd have to try it with David if the lights were still around.
For tonight though she relaxed leaning back as she looked up at the lights and the stars. There were so many more than in the city.]
You might, maybe next time it can be with someone special.

Don't sell yourself short there. You're pretty special, you know.
[She pitched it to sound a bit like a tease, even as her fingers sort of rested between Makoto's. If it felt almost but not quite like a date? Well, that was pretty intentional on one of their part, but she didn't want to press it too much further.
The stars shot past them and she smiled to herself.]
You know there's enough shooting stars right now, I imagine we could all get away with a wish for ourselves.

[Alright, that made her blush as she drew her knees up a little. She knew Vira-Lorr didn't mean it like that, or well she thought that Vira-Lorr didn't mean it like that. But still, Makoto found herself returning the gesture and holding the other's hand as their fingers laced between one another.]
What's your wish?
What's your wish?
Shhh. You're not allowed to tell someone your wish, Makoto. It will never have a chance of coming true if you do that. But, I'll promise you this. If mine ever does come true, you'll be the first to know.
[She felt the stiffening, the nerves and she tried to relax a little. She was laying it on thick, and ... Makoto didn't feel ready. The nerves were there, and as perfect as this moment might have seemed on the surface, it was a lie. The meteors were because she'd died. This beautiful display was because she'd been stupid, taken a risk and broken like stained glass. And now she was here, lying to someone she was getting interested in. It felt... like it only looked like the perfect day on the surface, and it needed to actually be perfect.
Chuckling a little, she glanced over, catching Makoto's eye out of the corner and seeing the blush. She really did look cute when her cheeks matched her hair.]
It's only fair. If I make my wish here with you, I should tell you first when it comes true, and vice versa? They don't always, but I think tonight we've got a shot of it, if we're patient

Oh, right.
[She had forgotten that part. Though it seemed a little childish. Then again when one of the stars went shooting by Makoto couldn't help but close her eyes and make a wish. Wishing that she could find that special someone. It wasn't that she expected it to come true, but there had been a lot of conversations recently about it, and everyone seemed so happy with who they were; Makoto wanted that same happiness.]
You really think so?
[She couldn't help but think about how Ami would probably say something about them not actually being stars or something.]

I am certain of it. A wish is only the possibility that we make come true with our own wills. The stars just help.
[Totally out of her ass on that one, but it sounded poetic enough. Vira-Lorr really should have kept hers generic like Makoto's, to leave herself open, because who could say what would happen in the next few months. But she didn't. Her eyes picked one out and she wished 'I wish to find love, perhaps with this girl.' She was, admittedly, starting to crush a little on her own, and having to remind herself what a century or two had taught her, especially the last two years, about leaping in without looking. She could hold back when it was her heart, but she certainly was the romantic sort to get her hopes up.]
I just want to stay here resting my head against you for a while. This is ... really nice, Makoto. Thank you for tonight.

You're welcome.
[The rest of the night passed by with the two of them sitting there and enjoying the beauty of the night and the lights filling the sky.]

It is, and her strength and courage is something to admire.
There is little control that you have over it. I don't see you as being someone to need protection, but I'm sure that she will still try.

My record arguably calls that in question. But, to that end, I don't want to put her at risk, Setsuna. She's strong, very strong, but she's a normal human. Even with weapons from sodder, certain creatures are very threatening and I refuse to get her hurt.
It might be me who steps in to protect her next month.
[Someone didn't know, clearly.]

[Setsuna lets out a sigh, she'd have to keep an eye on all of them to make sure they didn't do anything reckless and stupid.]
Why don't we all focus on protecting each other and take the advice and precautions that have been mentioned. I would hate to see anything happen to either of you.

Yes... I will agree to play my cards carefully this coming month. I can't afford to be rear guard but I'll bring out a weapon I've had since last year. It's particularly well suited for fighting these things.
I promise to be cautious and never fight alone. You as well.

I'll be sure to stay safe. But if you need me to come help, either with directing people or with supplies, call me.
