#Mooniverse

[mellythedork]

How in the ever-loving gourd has it been ten years? Time is an illusion that I stopped seeing ages ago.

10 years ago, at the tail end of 2013, I had a huge, friendship-ending fight that shattered me. In an attempt to keep myself together, I hid behind a character and wrote the most self-indulgent crossover fic I'd ever concocted. After 5 years, 2 rewrites, too many OCs to count, magic mechanics I didn't think through, and conversations with my former best friend about what had happened, I finally let that fic rest. I knew that if I tried to continue it, I'd never move on, as the very basis of it was focused on that fight.

But it was still such a colossal part of my life. 5 years to spend on a project is no laughing matter, and it felt like it was the only trustworthy constant as I struggled to make my way through everything going on around me. It invaded RPs with friends and basically everything I did...and that wasn't always a good thing. It was a coping mechanism that went too far, but I still cherished it so much.

Things never got anywhere near back to how they had been before that fight. But I learned a lot about myself and how to better handle problems I hadn't realized I was creating. I feel like being forced to think about it while writing the original Mooniverse helped me come to terms with it and move on--which was, of course, the intention all along! But it came to a point where I knew it had to end.

There was never any rhyme or reason to that fic, in any version of it. I wrote it purely to have fun and go wild. It's so odd looking back at the chapters now; I keep laughing at how things went without direction. But it was pure and adorable and I'll always look back at it fondly...beyond the cringing at how much I shoved it in my friends' faces.

For…I was going to say over a year, but I feel like 2 would be more accurate. For about 2 years now, I've struggled to create anything. Both art and writing have felt impossible. I burned out on most of my personal projects without realizing it until last month, but that realization took a weight off of me. And without that weight, as I realized the anniversary that was coming up, I was able to create something on nothing but a whim and enjoy it again.

My art block certainly isn't gone, and nothing about this is what I'd consider perfect. It's not even finished. But I set the sketch as my goal, trying to keep the pressure low, in hopes that I'd be able to post it at all. I do want to touch it up and finish it one day, but I'm not going to worry about that now.

I have been a bit inspired, though! I want to do more things like this. Like the original Mooniverse Melodia and the final one standing side by side here, I want to pull together more OCs with such connections and growth and see how far they've come. I don't know how much of that I'll accomplish, but it's been fun to think about for sure.

I hope everyone's holidays have gone well and that your plans for the new year are fulfilling. I think this year is going to go a lot better for me than the last.

--

From left to right we have: The original Annie along with the final Annie (Of course they'd be friends!)

The final Melodia (with slight modifications to her outfit in order to make a bit more sense; ditto to her bangs. Seriously, what was I thinking when I made that mess?? lol)

The middle-ground Moon (as I no longer have the design for the original, but wanted to include her)

The final Hope (in one of her alternate outfits)

The original Melodia (I didn't think I had any references left of her, but after about 2 hours of searching, I gave up only to stumble upon one by chance the next day. Sure was a surprise!)

And finally the middle-ground Myasu (just think of her & Moon as representing the first rewrite!)

-- I knew most of my art problems were from my difficulty and dislike of drawing bodies, so to make this possible at all, I used a base.

I also very much referenced the original image, the hair of Love Live and Idolmaster characters, and self-made bases from Shugo Chara, both due to time constraints and to keep my sanity. I'm very out of practice and didn't want to get so frustrated I abandoned the drawing altogether.

I am cringe but I am free... *proceeds to drop the worlds most self indulgent artwork ever*

COUGH COUGH I need his hand in my chest holding my still beating heart COUGH COUGH

"not all people-" you're right. Binah from the Project Moon universe would never treat me this way.

This is probably the last time I get to do this, huh?

SURPRISE PROPAGANDA ATTACK!

My target today is Starstruck Dee! She’s a perfectly normal Waddle Dee! I’m a perfectly normal noddy, so of course I’m going to support her!

- I love her giant bow! It looks so good on her! Head accessories are the best accessories when you’re small and round like us.

- Speaking of which, she’s small, just like me! Smaller than me, even! Us short people have to stick together. We’re not too short, the world is too tall!

- She’s so sparkly! Her skin is all glittery and she has those cool star things on her cheeks! Sparkles are the best, in my opinion. That’s why one of the first things I learned to do with my magic was make sparkles! Like this!

- She’s friends with Noir! I’ve seen her riding around in his scarf. Of course I’m going to support someone who’s friends with one of my friends!

Vote for Starstruck!

Oh god this chapter is so unhinged.

Ok so I’ve seen people talk about au head canons so I also wanted to

Technically all engines can ‘drink’ that’s how they refuel their coolant, kinda like how humans know to not breath in the water they are trying to drink (also how Steamers don’t accidentally throw water on the coal they just ate)

They also all have secondary ports, but eating/drinking their fuel is more fun, and tasty

My very hasty contribution to the meme, which automatically reminded me of their immediate biff in the Stars Arc.

I'm sorry, Mamoru being the only one who's not transformed is funny as hell, especially with their senshi names behind them. Girl that is *not* Tuxedo Mask. Does he have a tuxedo??? No. Does he have a mask??? No! That is regular old Mamoru Chiba. I'm screaming.

At this point, I’m just so fucking fed up. The Kirby oc tournament is actually terrible. There’s so much that’s just not right. We have….

-ageism

-advertising at 13+ server while having a large chunk of rps being 16+ not to mention how the serious talk channel became 16+ when mooniverse took over

-mods and cohosts lying

-people not doing anything abt shit that’s been going on

-gossiping abt minors some of which aren’t even 16

-and so much more 😀 (emoji is /sarcasm)

Anyway, I don’t care if anyone is sending hate at this point. Anon asks are off and I will be deleting all negative replies (also possibly blocking ppl who rb this in a negative manner). The mods and cohosts need to take off their rose tinted glasses and actually look at what’s going on. The last two years of the tourney have been hell for some people. I genuinely think that currently, they should have a lot more new mods and hosts, if not an entirely new team. I have some screenshots of some shit that’s been going down.

Clearly it should be called the Blood Mooniverse.

A Song of Blood and Nonsense?

Sex, Lies, and Occasional Ghostly Encounters With Dead Werewolves?

The Chronicles of Spooky Town?

The Bloody Saga?

Had a fic idea last night. So, Planet Mau is not in the Solar System, it is not strictly part of the Silver Millennium. But clearly they are connected to it in some way. An alliance would make the most sense. Same with Koronis, where Phobos and Deimos are from. So, what if there was a new villain who was pissed off because the their planet was reliant upon the SilMil for protection, supplies, etc. So when it fell their planet and people got royally screwed over. Broadly, the story could then go one of two ways, but both are connected to Serenity and Endymion's romance. From the villain's POV, and maybe this is because they are so angry and twisted they are desperate for someone to blame, they want revenge upon Serenity and Endymion, rationalising that if they hadn't fallen in love the Silver Millennium would never have fallen.

Alternatively, and this is my personal preference, the villain in question could be somehow trying to destroy the very concept of love itself. Love in the Sailor Moon universe (and many other Magical Girl franchises obviously) is a prevalent theme, and in the Mooniverse it is a literaly power source. You can literally kill someone, resurrect someone or rearrange molecules and atoms through the power of love. From the villain's POV love in many different forms is what ultimately destroyed the Silver Millennium. Love between an Earthling and Lunarian was forbidden and yet Serenity and Endymion were romantically in love with one another. The Inner Senshi and the Shitennou's love for their charges resulted in them not putting a stop to their relationship. Beryl's 'love' for Endymion led to her selling her soul to Metalia, most directly destroying the Moon Kingdom and murdering Endymion. Serenity's love for Endymion led to her killing herself. And QS's love for her daughter led to her heartbreak over her death, which in turn meant that she died but didn't seal Metalia way properly. Perhaps, by extension, QS's spell meant to protect the villain's homeworld as well, but her heartbreak compromised the spell the same way it improperly sealed away Metalia. The villain could even target Chibi-Usa specifically, as she is physical embodiment of Usagi and Mamoru's love.
