⚙ Sandrone had taken point as the two of them entered a Fibonnaci park that had been set up for the activity she had decided was the best one to bring Columbina to, not that she would admit that she had put any amount of thought into the outing. The story she had given the Moon Goddess was that she had just been in the mood for a walk and just so happened to want company for a change.

Nothing more, nothing less.

There should have been an emotion he should feel once his eyes caught the flowing fabric of the Damselette’s dress, a deep sated feeling that was supposed to tear at his heartstrings and make his chest heavy and empty. But none of the sort happened; if it was due to his generally uncaring nature or the rather peculiar situation they found themselves in, he couldn’t quite tell. Or simply couldn’t quite care enough to tell.

However, one thing was certain: regardless of how he felt towards her, it felt like he would do a disservice to himself to simply leave her to her own devices. Not that Columbina nor the Doctor were fighters by nature, but at least he knew how to hold himself in a fight if it came to it.

A deep sigh escaped his nostrils before he approached her, unbothered by the chaos and calamity around them. Really, there was a comedic tragedy for them to meet like this again.

“You were the second last person I’d want to see in a situation like this, but I suppose, fate is as cruel as ever.” But who better to team up with in the face of a moon invasion than the Moon Goddess herself? A fact he didn’t know if he should laugh or scoff at.

And there was one more advantage that he would gain from teaming up with his former fellow Harbinger.

“Different to the creatures flooding the city, I mean you no harm. Quite the opposite, I think your survival would be beneficial for the both of us. You must’ve heard the voice too, yes? How song is the most effective way to drive these beasts away?”

⚙ "Columbina? What are you... HEY!?" It wasn't an uncommon sight to find the Moon Goddess in front of her door. She probably would have just let herself in if the door hadn't intentionally been locked. And yet, Columbina grabbed her hand and started pulling her out of her doorway and onto the sidewalk. "I can walk by myself, Columbina!"

That protest fell on deaf ears of course, especially when the doll made little effort to overpower her and escape her grasp.

It's floral and tart!! But not bad, in fact, Shadow does really like it.

"You, you are alright?" His voice drops down to almost a whisper, as he looks over the snacks brought out for the two of them.

"Oh, dear. I hope I'm not prying too much. I had to leave Nod Krai briefly to deal with - well, it hardly matters here. But..."

⚙ Was a "wish" the same thing as a "goal"? It was a question that she'd reflected on numerous times over the course of her long life. "No". That was what she had decided. Sometimes they could overlap, but to her she didn't believe she had ever decided on a "wish" for herself. Would she die without finding an answer to the question Alain had posed to her that day? She expected as much.

Sandrone didn't know what had happened with her formula, not yet. She had prepared for the worst, and the worst was likely the outcome she was faced with. Even so, separating the outcome from the present felt like a futile endeavour so long as the subject of that formula's activation stood before her.

"Columbina..." Why was she here? Standing right in front of her? She hadn't been prepared for this at all. Everything she'd done to try and save her, just for the goddess to pop up in her face in some backwater shithole of a city!? She'd been taken off-guard, but she was dead set on recovering before it was too late. "What? I can't even escape you here? Are you magnetized to me or something? As you can see, I'm very busy."
