Please tell us about Luna (and Artemis)!

Alright!

Luna as I mentioned here was a part of the rebellion group that included Beryl and the 4 kings back in the silver millennium, she was a crucial part of the operation as she was the only one with direct access to the Moon Kingdom and the Queen.

Though let me take it back a second and explain who Luna is. The name Luna isn’t her name per se, but more of a title/position in the royal court that is passed down. The role of a Luna is given to a human woman whose job is to be a caretaker, specifically she’s the caretaker for any reborn senshi.

Say the current Mercury does anything that gets her executed, the new Mercury will be reborn on Earth and it’s Luna’s job to take her from her human parents and raise her til the age where she’s mature enough to be independent.

Additionally, since it happens that a whole life of a Luna can pass by without her even needing to take care of any senshi ( read more on how old the senshis are here, in the comments) she also is entasked with small roles as advisor for the queen and mediator during Earth expeditions, both of these jobs are her responsibility ONLY if it has to do with the senshi.

Our Luna didn’t raise any of the senshi, they are all adults when she is given the title of Luna, despite that Luna still tries to be there for (most of) them like a mother would. She feels for them and understands the terrible situations they’re in. That said she’s not treated well by all of them, really the only ones that treat her nicely and with respect are Mars and Neptune, and in her own way Mercury.

Luna is very passionate, even in her current life, she’s very driven by a sense of justice, while also having a very compassionate heart toward the people she’s supposedly betraying. Though she’s never swayed to think that what she’s doing isn’t right, the people of Earth deserve better and for that, the Moon Kingdom has to fall, even if she knows it means most likely means the death of the senshi and the princess.

She’s eventually discovered and executed, Mars tipping off the Queen to her doings. Mars is a very interesting character in silmil and she’s def the most “lawful good” out them all, but with her future vision, she does what she has to make sure the pieces fall into place for a better future. She knew Luna’s execution was the only opening for such future, so she regrettably did what she had to do. There’s 0 animosity between them, more like a mutual respect and liability. They never talked about such issues openly between each other, but there was always a silent mutual understanding. Mars understood Luna’s actions and Luna’s understood Mars’.

Skipping to the current time, the same Luna that was executed was reincarnated into the body of a cat, my theory is that cats are nimble, low key creatures who are able to fairly easily integrate into society while still not being human and so that’s why the Queen chose such form. She didn’t want Luna to be a human cause she doesn’t need Luna to stick around long, cats live much shorter lives and she only needs Luna to care of the senshi during their ‘transitioning training’ period and then die, having fulfilled her purpose.

All Luna’s memories were erased, only keeping very foggy, but clear goals in her mind. Awaken the senshi, find the princess and stop the evil Dark Kingdom. I like to think Queen Serenity chose this past Luna to reincarnate instead of just getting a fresh new soul because Luna already carried that sort of experienced motherly vibe with her, making it easier the ease the senshi into accepting their new destiny, but also maybe as a sort of taunting punishment. This is your punishment for your betrayal, you’ll unknowingly help defeat the same group you were a part of all those years ago and that empire you tried to destroy, will rise once again, with you knowing no better and dying before even getting to witness it.

As for Artemis, my ideas with him are definitely not as fleshed out. I most often tend to see him as the royal advisor of the Queen, his name also being a title. He really believes the Queen to be a sort of superior being, but he does also have a deeper attachment to her, seeing the more human side to her, which no1 else really gets to see.

He’s a bit more on the cynical side when it comes to the Earth people. Not that he sees them as completely inferior, but he believes people like them need beings like Serenity to mantain peace and order, even if they don’t know better. Humans are inherently selfish and self-destructive, he witnessed it, being a human who grew up on Earth.

He regularly interacted with Venus, being another victim of her manipulations, even if not to the level of Serenity, and holds her to a standard higher than the other senshi, seeing the rest of them as unmotivated and ungrateful of being a part of the court.

Unlike Luna, he retained his memories when he got reincarnated. Lying and withholding information to the true extent of what the senshi, the princess and the kingdom truly entail to the future of the girls and Earth itself, even from Luna.

He believes he’s doing the right thing, that Queen Serenity knew better and that this is how things should be. Though in the back of his mind something doesn’t feel right, he feels hurt and betrayed. Why was he reborn as a cat? He understands why Luna was, but why him, he showed nothing but devotion and loyalty to the Queen. Did he really not mean anything to her or does she really know best and knows that Artemis’ fate is ultimately inconsequential to the rise of the new kingdom?

This conflict within him is a major part of his growth as a character, learning to unwind and truly rethink what being human means through the girls and especially through Mina.

Regarding their relationship, I really do not ship Luna and Artemis. Through the majority of the first arc Luna is left in the dark by him and lead to make decisions that ultimately will cause the girls more harm than good. They are coworkers at best and even after stuff get a lil cleared out, Luna still holds a huge resentment toward him never really gets resolved (in my hc, Luna doesn’t live past the 2nd season, sorry, ik, I love her too).

This is long I know , sorry. LOL, but hopefully it clears some things up and of course all I write int his asks is still a draft, so stuff might change.

@staff

just a suggestion,

but maybe you could add an organizing feature for the "liked" posts?

So I can manage the posts that I liked and group them together accordingly.

Two weeks without my individual therapy and like I think I finally figured out why I’m not like. super happy w them.

Last therapist was amazing. I miss her, I really wish she hadn’t moved bc I would have followed her to private practice (the office I’m with is students fulfilling practicums and hours so naturally they’re only there for a short time before graduating/moving on. Apparently I was that therapists longest client and it was…. 9? 10? months). We did A Lot of fucking work. I truly went from ‘I don’t have friends here. I don’t have friends at work. I don’t know ppl at the gym’ to hanging out w ppl outside work and doing the dance training and making friends there. Do I have someone/ppl I consider close friends? Not really… like there’s no one I’m gonna call cause I’m having a bad day. But anyways, we did a lot of work on that shit together.

New therapist comes in, I give them the run down, but they didn’t see my starting point. Their starting point is where I ended w the last one, which is way ahead of where I was when I started. I’ve tried rephrasing that and they’re just like not getting it? Like

Me: I have trouble making and keeping friends

Them: well u say that, but look at ur work friends and gym friends! Ur going out this weekend!

I didn’t make friends at this job until my second year. I’m still trying to figure out how the gym ones happened lol. I didn’t have any of that when I started w the last therapist. It was months of work to get that. So current doesn’t see me as having no friends, bc I did all the work already. But in my life, making and keeping friends is not something I do well! I’ve had 28 yrs showing that friendships are really fucking hard for me! But they don’t see that! And idk if they’re not believing me or what but every time I bring it up it’s met w ‘oh but ur doing so well u have so many friends don’t say that’ *cue eye twitch* and I don’t want to be bringing up last therapist all the time like ‘u say that bc of the work I did w her’ even tho that’s true!! And I know I can’t hold onto old therapists but like it’s really draining and like aggravating for me to say a truth abt my life and having it met w a (trying to be supportive) ‘no that’s not true’ and then like have to either defend myself to them or just move past it but still have it in the back of my mind and like have to go ‘no I don’t want to bring x up bc they’re gonna say y again and I don’t want to hear that’ like I’m having to screen my own issues before I bring them up and at that point like why am I bothering to go

Nice thing abt this office tho is that if it’s not working out, u don’t even have to go through ur therapist to change, you can just reach out to the office and request a new therapist (or wait it out lol but I tried to ask how long this one is gonna be and they’re doing a different type of hours? So idk) but then the like ‘well why did u change what was it u didn’t like’ or what if another person I also don’t match w and then I have to do it all again…
