Minako Aino	Though she'd only been once or twice, and usually on 'official business', Minako did know where Setsuna lived. Given she was the one that had helped to outfit the Shittenou with camping gear for their time in the 'empty space' or whatever it was called, she had a reason to reach out to her now. Bundled up as best she could to fend off the Winter chill, Minako rings the doorbell while stamping her feet on any mat that was in front of the door to shake off salt or sludge that had coated her shoes.
Setsuna Meiou	It isn't terribly long that Minako needs to stand outside scrubbing her feet on the doormat, as the door opens very shortly after. Standing inside is the woman of the house herself, Setsuna Meiou. As is customary for her, when relaxing around the house, she's wearing a t-shirt that's oversized enough that it basically counts as knee-length dress on her frame. In this case, it's a black shirt with the words 'PRETTY SURE I SIEZED THE WRONG DAY' on it in black letters. There's a moment where Setsuna blinks at the blonde in surprise, then she's stepping aside and waving her in, "Minako-chan! Come in, come in out of the cold, let me get your jacket."
Minako Aino	"Yes please it's so cold!" Minako wasn't one to dawdle when an invitation was given. Before she's even finished speaking entirely she's already ducked inside the doorway still hugging her arms around herself. Reluctantly she moves them enough so that she can shrug out of the puffy jacket she had on. "I wanted to ask you about something but then I realized I didn't have your phone number, or at least I couldn't remember if I had it or not, and I didn't want to bug Usagi and Ami-chan because I think they're on a date right now--" It all comes out in a tumble of words before she finally pauses to catch her breath. Realizing she'd just barged into Setsuna's home she flashes a quick grin. "Oh, how are you doing by the way?"
Setsuna Meiou	Setsuna has another moment of pause while she processes the tumble of words, then she smiles and takes Minako's coat, hanging it on a nearby peg obviously set for just such a purpose. The older woman waves Minako down the short hall towards the kitchen, "I'm doing fine, Minako. Come, have a seat. Would you like something to drink? Coffee? Tea? Cocoa?" It's only a few dozen steps down the entrance hallway into the kitchen that sits at the heart of Setsuna's house, a large central island with several stools around it with a very well-stocked kitchen apparently featuring just about any appliance you'd care to name. Setsuna pulls out a chair, then says, "And how about you, Minako? Everything going well?"
Minako Aino	Minako Aino glances to watch where the coat is moved, though it's more out of 'following the movement' than any concern about where it's left. It's not as if she didn't trust Setsuna. Even if she was one of the Outer Senshi she didn't know quite as well. Following into the kitchen she moves easil over to one of the stools within to hop up and sit. "Oh, cocoa would be great! I like coffee but mostly when it's iced and right now warming up sounds better." Almost irreverently she leans forward propping her elbows on the counter as she slouches with the poise of a teenager unafraid of aching joints later. "I'm doing fine. It's been rather quiet lately so I've just been doing club activities mostly. Although, with the whole 'Kyoto being sleep paralized by a dream demon' or whatever is going on, some of us were thinking maybe it would be safer to sleep on campus for awhile." "Which is why I was wondering if you still have the sleeping bags from the 'Save the Shittenou' party?"
Setsuna Meiou	At the acknowledgement, Setsuna steps over to the cabinet and retrieves a pair of fairly large mugs, then takes them over to the horrendously-complicated-looking machine in the corner that's apparently for making cofffee...but as is revealed, apparently has settings and modes for making hot cocoa as well. She loads each up from a container that has the name 'Jacques Torres' on it, then sets them to go on the machine. While it makes coffee shop noises over in the corner, Setusna turns back, "Oh, certainly. We can go get those shortly if you'd like...though I was just about to make myself a hamburger or two for dinner." She looks over at the blonde slouching and smiles a little, "...would you care to join me? It's easy enough to make extras." While she waits for an answer, there's a soft 'ding' sound, and Setsuna reaches over to grab the two mugs, taking one over to slide in front of Minako and setting the other down on the island across from her before turning back and digging through another cabinet for a moment to retrieve a bag of marshmallows that she sets down, "Here's marshmallows if you take them in your cocoa."
Minako Aino	Does she take marshmallows? Mina's already reaching for them. The first doesn't even make it to the cocoa as it's instead popped into her mouth with the same gusto one would expect of Usagi when indulging her sweet tooth. "I shouldn't stay for dinner, Artemis is expecting me back. He'd be super cranky if I ate and he didn't." "... Though he could probably eat a hamburger too." Oh, decisions! She did always try to be a good partner and make sure he was fed properly. "Thank you!"
Setsuna Meiou	Setsuna ahs, "Well, then, give me a moment to set things up, then I'll go grab those sleeping bags for you." She takes a sip of her cocoa, hrms, then sprinkles some marshmallows in before reaching into her fridge and getting ingredients for hamburgers out and laying them on the counter. That all taken care of, she turns back, takes another sip of cocoa, then reaches to the side and closes her hand around the Garnet Rod which is just suddenly THERE. Setusuna then looks over and says, "Give me a few minutes. I left them packed up at the Gates. I'll be right back." And with that, she just vanishes. Apparently when you're the Guardian and/or when you have the BIG key, you don't have to go through the whole incantation to access the Gates of Time. Setsuna is gone for about ten minutes or so, then she reappears right where she'd been before, except she's got a large sea bag slung over her shoulder that looks like it's fairly full. The taller woman unslings the bag and sets it down next to Minako, "There you go, that's half a dozen sleeping bags and pillows to go along with them. Was there anything else you girls needed?"
Minako Aino	Minako Aino blinks in surprise at the appearance of the garnet rod. When Setsuna vanishes, she stands up on her seat a bit to lean over the counter peering at the fridge area. It doesn't reveal any grand secrets to her though she does boggle over it quietly a few moments until she sinks back down onto the stool again. "Huh." Oh well. It wasn't up to her to figure out such things. That was more Ami's area of expertise. The blonde grins brightly when Setsuna reappears with the requested camping gear. "Oh, it's not just for the girls!" She explains with an excited tone as she hops off her stool to step over to accept it. "Thank you! Though I'm still not sure Masato will fit in one that isn't lumberjack sized. We were wondering if we ought to just sew a couple together for him. We'll see if sleeping on campus helps, though, when we have a sleepover in my dorm room." Oh dear. Those rooms were rather small. This was truly a 'teenagers not thinking things through' moment, clearly. Mina is quite happy over it though as she explains, "I'll let you know how it works out! Thank you again Setsuna-san!"
Setsuna Meiou	Setsuna leads Minako back to the door, "Hopefully, it should work well enough. From what I remember Emi-chan mentioning to me, there was something about the area around the Academy being far less prone to nightmares and the like. I imagine it has something to do with the various wards and whatnot on the campus having at least some effect in the dream world." The woman playing host helps her guest get prepared for the trip out again, "...and let me know if you need more gear or whatnot. It's easy enough for me to order extra and get it delivered next day or whatever."
Minako Aino	Minako Aino beams brightly. "Thanks. I know it was out of the blue. I really appreciate the help. This should do us though--At least until we figure out if it actually works." "Although I imagine it will. And thank you for the cocoa!" With that she bundles up again, and bounds out the door to dash home where it's warm. And Artemis is waiting.
