Kitari: "Whoa~! Look at this!"
Sailor: "They're improving, alright!"
A big stack of perfect reports towered over the small stack of minor mistakes for both Punishments and Wishes. The queens were beaming.
Vega: "This is all thanks to you, Lady Kitari!"
Altair: "As of us, Lady Sailor, we are thankful!"
Vega and Altair bowed their heads low after they gave Sailor and Kitari the reports. Suddenly their messenger entered the room with his eyes glinting a cross between gray and black. Altair and Vega shyed away from Sailor and Kitari's personal messenger, Oangia.
Oangia: "Hurry up and leave, you are disrupting Lady Kitari and Lady Sailor's work!"
Altair/Vega: "...!"
Vega: "W-well...sorry, excuse us..."
Altair: "Vega! Hey, you're a messenger just like us! You can't treat us that way!"
Oangia: "Don't make me. Say it. AGAIN."
Oangia towered over the little messengers at the height of 6 to 7 feet. He was taller than Sailor or Kitari.
Altair/Vega: "Waaah!"
*scurry, scurry*
Sailor: "...I don't remember Zyglavis having any children..."
Kitari: *sigh*
Sailor: "...that can change their eye color like a mood ring."
Oangia faced the two whispering girls with his eyes flickering red...and a little pink. With all the time they spend with this saucy, little messenger, they can tell that he's sort of tired and kinda peeved.
Oangia: "Now, it is great that you two are finally becoming more like queens, but you have a long ways to go."
Sailor: "Urgh, don't remind me."
Oangia: "If Lord Zyglavis had children, that would definitely ruin his work performance. I suppose you wish for me to keep an eye on him, is what you had meant?"
Sailor: "NO! That was not what I meant at ALL! Besides! I think a girlfriend is what that anal retentive scale needs! If he keeps jumping spaces, he's gonna give me a heart attack..."
Kitari: "Oh, you mean doing harsh punishments while looking ahead?"
Sailor: "I still gotta get used to it."
Oangia: "...Are you proposing that you do not know and understand the ways of your own members?"
His eyes were showing more pink than red. Sailor, looking exasperated, flumped down into the couch, in the parlor, her hands rubbing her temples in stress.
Sailor: "I DO understand and I DO know what they are and why! That's what's making me so worried."
Kitari: "I know what you mean. Sometimes I get the feeling my members are a bit stereotypical on their wishes."
Sailor: "What do you mean?"
Kitari: "Like...it's their image on humans that is wrong. Though, I know that it's not necessarily their fault, I suppose."
It was silent for a moment. Kitari stole a glance over at Oangia's eyes and saw that they were easing into a clear, default, red-ish purple. The fact that he was going back into his neutral purple and less-moody clear was a good thing...maybe.
Oangia: "You are starting to understand."
Sailor: "Oh, quiet, I don't remember Star King giving you to us just to boss us around like a nagging mother in law. Besides, WE'RE your bosses."
Sailor still didn't find Oangia's words to be helpful. Oangia's eyes flickered back to the foggy pinkish red.
Oangia: "THE Star King, to you, Lady Sailor. I don't know for certain if you two are even human or not, but you are certainly not Celestials."
Sailor: "Oh, is THAT why you're so strict on us?"
Kitari: "Urgh, this is what I meant about stereotyping."
Oangia: "This isn't a matter of stereotyping. It is a matter of suspicion. I cannot understand why the rulers trust you two so completely, even his highness. But...it is not like I despise my own leaders, myself. I am...just a bit wary."
Sailor: "A BIT?"
Oangia: "You two have a fair reputation due to the party that his highness held two weeks ago. Though the truths about you two are raising suspicion."
Kitari: "Don't tell me...it's about our stars...isn't it?"
Oangia: "Not only that. Your powers are emotionally triggered. You never think in order to use them. That means you do not have control over them."
Sailor: "EXCUSE ME!?"
Oangia: "And of your stars, the fact that you don't have them, that you two are existing on Earth and classified as 'humans', even with your properties, and that you two aren't even related, born in his-highness-knows-where is making everyone have doubts in these human department queens!"
Kitari: "Well...we were just a special case. Yeah, me and Sailor aren't related, we just met each other on the internet...grew up still doing that...met up a couple times at some Anime cons...searched for her again and stayed with her inside the Star House."
Sailor: "Me, well...I just got caught up on them all on my own...it was kinda easy getting used to the guys, since I am an otome freak, like Kitari, but...I couldn't stop sticking around..."
Sailor/Kitari: "We're just...us."
Oangia: "...This...is going to be more difficult than I though."
"......."
Sailor/Kitari: "WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU GONNA DO!?"
Oangia: "Hush, we shall go up to the Celestial World."
Kitari: "Why!?"
Sailor: "Yeah, we're in the middle of work! You got no right to take us out. What happened to that whole, we're supposed to act like the department queens thing!?"
Oangia: "You need to know and understand the true Celestial World. Not the version you imagine, you amateur human 'queens'."
Sailor: "Why you...!"
Oangia: "Failure. Why must I put up with this..."
He turned away from them and headed toward the gateway to the Celestial World. The girls reluctantly followed. But they couldn't see his eyes melt slowly into a clear yellowish green. Good side, trying be helpful, and interested.
