Fitting room mirrors were one of Sappho's silliest favorite ways to slip out of Mirrorspace unnoticed. She could step through, power down, and slip out by the attendant who was usually too confused or busy to say anything. It wasn't like there was an easy way to explain how someone could get in there, after all, and she was always careful to check before she started walking through.
Apparently, she had not checked thoroughly enough this time, because as she began to step out, she found herself bumping into someone who was stepping in. Automatically, she reached out to catch the person in front of her, eyes a little wide, catchingh er with one arm and bracing against the mirror with the other.
"I'm so sorry, I thought the way was clear," she said, in a rush, and only after did she look and see who she'd managed to run into.
Oh. Girl. Girl pretty.
Oh no, Sappho's greatest weakness.
"Uh," she said, elegantly, to the girl in her arm, "hi?"

Bélénos squeaked as another Dark Mirror Senshi exited the mirror she'd been about to walk into, slipping and falling into her arms... and her chest. Bélénos's chin rested on the bosom of the pretty girl who had caught her mid-fall and oh ******** oh ******** oh ******** scrambled to get up, blushing and hoping her skin hid it well.
"Oh my gosh, hi, so sorry, I've never had this happen before," she babbled. "I, um, so like, hi???"

Ohhh Sappho hadn't even noticed where the girl's face had landed. She felt her cheeks heat up, and she knew it had to be obvious--she and her brother both were blatant blushers, curse her pale skinned British genetics--which just made the whole thing more embarrassing.
"No, no, it's fine, really, I should have been more careful, I usually am, uh," she smiled, nervously, "more. A lot of things."
She extended a hand, feeling like a giant doofus the entire time.
"Hi, I'm Sappho? And I am usually way better at talking, but pretty girls are my kryptonite."

Bélénos giggled, shaking Sappho's hand and trying not to make a dirty joke. Then Sappho said pretty girls and her own brain just about short-circuited. "Oh, I, uh, oh my god, same," she blurted. "Like, soooo same. Hi. I'm Bélénos. Uh. Would—uh, what were your plans? I can change mine pretty easily, if, uh, you maybe wanted to hang out or something? Could always make a new friend. Or more. Or whatever. ********, sorry. I sound insane." Nerves knotted in her stomach, making her a little nauseous, but she smiled. and prayed that the fitting room attendant was farrrr too busy to pay attention to what was going on in here.

Well, at least running at the gay little mouth hadn't completely chased this girl away. Chalk up one win for disaster area gay girls everywhere. Maybe this was an indication that honesty was the best policy, or whatever. No matter how poorly it went with lame Order clowns.
"You do not at all sound insane and I did not in fact have plans," Sappho said, because whatever they had been, she had totally forgotten, which meant they totally weren't important in the face of spending time with a pretty girl.
(Holy s**t she had not learned a damned thing from her messy girl adventures.)
(Oh well. Too late to care now.)
"We could, uh, go somewhere? The weather's really nice lately, and I know this one park that has a really pretty lantern-lit path for after-dark visitors. It might be nice to, like...go for a walk together?"

Ohhhh God. Oh God. A walk. In the dark. Lantern-lit path. In one of the city's pretty parks. Do not make a joke about being a U-haul lesbian. Do not make a joke about being a U-haul lesbian. Do not make a joke about being a U-haul lesbian.She smiled, nodding, and opened her mouth. A knock sounded at the door. "Is everything alright in there?" the fitting room attendant called. "I'm hearing two voices." "Y-Yes!" Bélénos called out quickly. "Sorry, I was facetiming my uh, my d-date tonight! Asking if the stuff I was trying on was cute enough! We started making plans and I tooootallyyyy lost track of the time I was spending in here. I'll be out in a sec, I gotta, uh, you know, hang up before I change back into my normal clothes." "Okay," the attendant said, and Bélénos exhaled a sigh of relief as she heard their footsteps receding. "Tell me the park name," she whispered to Sappho, smiling shyly. "We can meet there in a few minutes? I think I better actually exit this particular room now that she thinks I was filming thirst traps or getting ready to get frisky in here or something." She picked up the ugly Easter-themed discount sweater she'd grabbed to fake trying on, sighing at it. "I guess I'll buy this and wear it," she said reluctantly. "So we can recognize each other without attracting any, uh... weirdos. Or at least you can recognize me. But as soon as we see each other, I'm taking it off. I full intend to return this ugly ********. Can't be too hard even with the magic stuff to recognize a girl in pink hair, triangle glasses, and an ugly Easter sweater, right?"

The fitting room attendant's voice made Sappho freeze up and very suddenly remember where she was. Right, public, other people, might overhear them. But at least Bélénos was smart and quick on her feet, and immediately had an explanation ready, even if it made her a little blushy.
Date. Yeah. Maybe a little bit. Maybe Sappho kind of liked that idea. Maybe she could get to have a nice time with a cute girl and it didn't have to mean anything.
"Harmony Gardens. It's kind of new, they actually took down a couple of shitty abandoned houses to put it in. Hope you like cute water features."
She winked, slid back into the mirror, and was gone.

Ohhh nooo, it should be illegal to be that hot.In an instant, she became Olivia again, rubbing her blushing face. "Holy s**t. I have a date," she whispered to herself, trying not to squeal. "Sort of. Whatever. We'll work it out. Harmony Gardens. I can remember that." She exhaled slowly. Time to buy this ******** sweater, I guess.
