((heirtothemonado Here you go~!))
Arle laid in a bed at the Magical Girl's Society lodge, staring up at the ceiling in thought. Three days. She had three days to mentally prepare herself. This time it wouldn't be a mirage. She was stepping up to become Leader of the Life Sphere alongside Mario and Samus. She'd already sent Roco to do some investigative work, such as doing some research into the actual merits of Sonic's plans so that she wouldn't just be pointing out the obvious when someone asked about that. Some of the magical girls had even chipped in to get her a pretty ... weird outfit to celebrate her becoming leader. But hey, she wasn't complaining. New clothes! Now that she'd delegated work though, all she had to do was rest and recover. Arle could still feel the phantom aches and burns on her body from her fight with Solaris. She'd done all she could to heal herself physically, and yet her injuries still haunted her. It was a constant reminder that her body was never meant to withstand the pressures she was putting it through. Without the aid of magic, she would have died long ago from the grevious strain she'd put herself through, nevermind the wounds. Arle had to wonder--How far could she push herself before even magic couldn't simply fix her. ...With this new burden looming over the horizon, the question felt relevant. ...She resolved to try and take better care of herself so that she wouldn't have to find out. Even still, it was kind of painful waiting an entire three days before getting back to the day to day grind. She just hoped her sisters would stop by and keep her company so she wasn't just waiting here feeling dumb. Maybe a friend? She wouldn't mind a visit from Schezo or Rulue. They knew where she was right? ...Maybe not. She generally didn't make a habit of telling people that, come to think of it. Another fear, less easily resolved, hovered over her though. ...She could no longer put off confronting Viridi about what happened. It was a conversation she felt no more prepared to have than when she left the Lunar Sanctum for the last time, and yet she knew she needed Viridi's help if she was to make this plan a reality. She just hoped she wouldn't be forced to regret her decision. Finally something came to distract Arle from her thoughts. Carbuncle leaped up onto Arle's stomach, startling her! She reflexively cupped a hand around him, chuckling a bit. "...Where've you been?" Arle asked, only to finally take notice of something on Carbuncle's head. "...Is that Samus' helmet??" Arle asked in bewilderment. "Gu?" carbuncle replied, matching Arle's confusion. "...That better be a replica." Arle softly lamented, laying her head back down.
