[ If you're near the Coliseum today, a very familiar presence is standing at the very center of the arena... but you'll notice the atmosphere is pretty dense. Wearing Gemini, Saga looks serene in appearance, though his mind is full of uneasiness.

Eyes closed and frowning, his Cosmo glows... and... in a blink of an eye, the ground beneath him sags fiercely into a small, deep hole, big stones cracking and flying everywhere with the same intensity. He half-opens his emerald eyes, not minding about the damage caused by his little rampage...

... All he wanted was to find the most suitable way to loose his frustration... ]

Stay calm, huh?

[Drawn to investigate the surging of Cosmo, Mu stands about a foot outside of the ring of destruction. He looks a little bit drawn, and his voice is even quieter than normal when he speaks]

What troubles the Saint of Gemini?

[sosweet]

[He sighs and is about to leave when he notices Mu at the distance, regarding him with dismay, not saying a word.]

[lamb_of_gold]

Are you going to answer, or look at me like a scolded child?

[His snappiness might have something to do with how worn-out he looks - and his cosmo feels]

[sosweet]

[Oh... Cosmo-meter ping is rising.] [Given that comment, frowns more and dodges his gaze reluctantly.] Seems like you got out of bed with the wrong foot.

[Exhaustion vs Exhaustion. Get.]

[lamb_of_gold]

It is difficult to "get out of bed" at all, when one has not seen his bed in several nightss.

[sosweet]

[Just rubs the back of his head and runs his fingers through his bangs.] The former seems my case, then. [He leaves the arena and walks towards Mu.] Is there something you needed?

[lamb_of_gold]

Only a satiated curiosity.

[sosweet]

[Stops almost before being next to him, looking defiant at Mu in the eye.]

Hooray for misfires!

[lamb_of_gold]

[Somewhere in the back of his mind, his instincts say to balk. To back down and run. This is Saga. But instead of being too stubborn to listen, he is now far too tired to, and the look in his own eyes reflects that.]

Yes?

xD *pets*

[sosweet]

[Saga can see that... and understands his situation more than anyone. He's silent for a long while, that could seem like an eternity.

But any restraint he has because of his own pride... it had to be vanished.] I know you are tired... but I need a favor to ask.

You may be the only person that can... help me... with this.

[lamb_of_gold]

What is it you need?

[Inside:ohfuckohfuckohfuck......]

[sosweet]

[Like... it isn't some kind of suicide lol.] It is not for myself...

It is... for Morgana.

[lamb_of_gold]

You want me to teach her.

[sosweet]

[Nods.] Hm.

[Hesitates for a moment. Of all Gold Saints, Mu was the one he trusted the most, regardless if Mu didn't trust him.] ... Your teaching will lead her to the good path.

We cannot let her use her power to harm the innocents at any cost... nor even let her to be tempted by others to use it against... what she is protecting so dearly. Her King, her friends... and her people.

[lamb_of_gold]

I'm aware, and so is she. The problem is how little I know about her magic.

[sosweet]

[Sighs.] ... Then we must find out one way or another. I can help... if you let me.

But... [He sits next to him.] ... it is more than that.

[lamb_of_gold]

More?

[sosweet]

[Presses his lips.] ... If we don't help her, it is possible that she might... [He doesn't end that sentence, but Mu may notice the hint.] ... I don't wish that to happen...

[lamb_of_gold]

I understand, and I would not wish that upon anyone. However, until I know more, there's very little I can do, besides help her to keep it from lashing out.

If you can learn anything about her world's magic, I would much appreciate it.

[sosweet]

If you can help her at least to keep it under control, I will thank you for that.

And of course... I will look into it as soon as possible.

[Still, his Cosmo feels uneasy.]

[lamb_of_gold]

That, at least, I can do. And yet I do not think that is all. What are you keeping from me?

[sosweet]

[He half-opens his eyes and rubs his forehead, irritated.] I... found a message. Written on the wall of my bedroom.

[lamb_of_gold]

Ah-!

[That takes him somewhat by surprise]

As have I. What did it say?

[sosweet]

[Oh... great.] [Looks away sheepishly.] 'Stay calm' it said.

Yours?

[lamb_of_gold]

Only that my messenger apparently had much better teeth than I.
