Azula plonked down on a park bench and purposely released a little sigh between her lips. Silence hung with magnitude. She scrunched her face and glanced at Mamoru sitting next to her, him silent and pensive as usual.
She lightly bopped his side. "Thanks for saving me," she said quietly as a couple walked past them. "I was gone and back in a day so no one even realize what happened."
"I'd imagine it would be difficult to explain what happened," Mamoru agreed.
Azula bit her lip and looked down at her lap. "Are you mad at me?"
It had been only yesterday when he rescued her from becoming Sailor Hemera's shish kabob, and throughout the next day at school Mamoru had not directed a word to Azula, not even to demand an explanation.
"I don't understand what happened…" he confessed and rubbed his face with one hand. "Why...why did I forget again?"
"Because Usagi wanted everyone to be normal," Azula said sadly. She could feel his frustration radiating from him and yet she couldn't sympathize because she herself never forgot - she'd been unable to without a reason why. "In retrospect she probably should have asked if everyone else agreed...but she did it with the best of intentions."
"She chose to forget me…"
"No, I think she just had confidence you guys would meet again...and you did! And good news is she likes you...again!"
Mamoru shook his head. It was a lot to take in, again. "I don't understand. How did you not forget?"
Azula leaned back on the bench and shrugged her shoulders. She crossed her tight-cladded legs. "We've no idea. Scientifically speaking, it is probable that one person had to remember. I think maybe it's because I was on the Moon base when Luna and Artemis did the memory wipe and something in that room protected me."
"And you took it upon yourself to look after us?"
"Well-" Azula chuckled, "-of course. Why wouldn't I?"
"We were 'normal' so there was no need. You didn't have to work for nothing, you know."
"You guys were my friends-"
"-you blackmailed me to become friends-"
"It wasn't one of my finest moments," Azula articulated purposely slow. "But Sailor Moon taught me to be better. Everyone did. So, when it came time for me to finally be able to pay you guys back...I made it my mission to make sure that each of you got to live a perfectly normal life."
"You didn't have to do that," Mamoru said with a significant look in his eyes. He knew (remembered now) that it was difficult for Azula to make friends on her own, so taking this mission probably made it impossible for her to live her own life with new friends.
Azula smiled. "Yeah, I did."
"Well, you can stop doing that for me because you and I are the ones who are gonna be running things around here," Mamoru paused for a second then added, "Well, you, me and maybe Rei." Azula made a noise at that. "She's beginning to remember things."
"It's my fault, I should have never visited her at the shrine," Azula shook her head.
"Rei was a special Sailor Scout. She could sense things that we couldn't. Sooner or later she was gonna start to remember something."
"Yeah well maybe if you hadn't used your freaky psychometric powers we wouldn't be in this mess," Azula huffed sarcastically.
A slight smirk etched across Mamoru's lips. "Oh, now it's my fault?"
"Isn't it always?"
Mamoru glanced at her with eyebrows raised, waiting for her to take it back. Of course, she never did.
Azula's lips soon stretched into a smile. "It's nice having you back, you know. I missed teasing you."
"Out of everything that's what you missed?" And yet Mamoru was not surprised.
"But teasing you about Usagi was my favorite sport," Azula shrugged. "And I'm a bit rusty so I should start practicing again-"
"No!"
"So when are you asking her out twinkle toes?"
"I'm not doing this-"
"Oh c'mon, it's so easy. You've done this before - oh wait, did they do 'dating' back in your other lives?"
"Azula, please," Mamoru finally managed to get a word in. He was dead serious and yet plainly sad that Azula did indeed pause for a second. "Usagi wished to be normal and I'm... I'm having trouble with that."
"Well, if you want-" but Azula never got to finish her offer because Meroko walked up to the two.
"Don't tell me I interrupted something?" a clean smirk drew over her lips.
"One more word and this entire park knows you're the lovely - crazy - Hemera," Azula warned and now crossed her arms.
Meroko Ikeda was Sailor Hemera, and yet Azula was not surprised by the turn of events. She thought she should have seen it coming. It was of course going to happen.
"You remember anything?" Meroko nodded towards Mamoru, expecting to hear good news.
"Between last night and now, no," Mamoru answered with clear irritation.
"You're a shame," Meroko sighed and rubbed her face. "How can you be Prince Endymion and not remember anything?"
"Hey give him a break, he's got like a thousand years between that life and now," Azula rose from the bench.
"Why are you still here?" Meroko asked her with a condescending look in her face.
"Because she's my friend and the one who's been looking after me," Mamoru got up from the bench and put a hand on Azula's shoulder. With a glance at her Azula received her answer of her question- he wasn't mad at her. He straightened himself up and directed a serious gaze to Meroko. "And if you want my help then you're going to have to lose the attitude and come off your high pedestal."
Meroko snorted. "Fine, whatever."
"Let's go somewhere else to talk…" Azula looked around the park with mild concern. Anyone could listen in on something they ought not to.
And because of that, there was no other place than the base underneath the arcade. Luna and Artemis weren't happy with the recent happenings and much less to have an intruder in their sacred base but there was no time for feelings like that.
"I still don't understand how you can hide an entire kingdom on Earth and not know about it," Azula commented distractedly while she watched Luna and Artemis do their work on the computers.
"Queen Nyx cast an enchantment that concealed our new Kingdom of Shadow from Earthen eyes," Meroko explained from a short distance.
"And you didn't know about it?" Azula made a motion to Mamoru who shook his head.
"I think I found out much, much later…"
"You did," Meroko agreed, nodding her head. "You re-established our agreement but you demanded one additional clause."
"That Princess Reign had to live in my Kingdom," Mamoru nodded, remembering perfectly how he had ordered that to the Sailor Scouts of Shadow.
"And you do realize that Queen Nyx ultimately agreed only because her power was already diminishing and she couldn't afford to flee again?"
"It doesn't take scientists to figure it out…"
"Queen Nyx had been ill for a long while now and she already kept one of my Sailor comrades at her side and between my sister and I guarding the barrier...there was only one Shadow Guardian remaining which wasn't enough. The Queen realized Princess Reign would be safer with the Prince and his Generals," Meroko said, a hint of sadness lacing her words.
"But Reign said her deepest secret was a danger from even her own people," and that was troubled Mamoru the most. How could a leader not trust her own people to feel safe around? Whatever Reign guarded, it had to be tremendously big and important.
Meroko seemed to know exactly what he was talking about because her entire face paled.
"What did Reign guard that was so dangerous even her own people would turn against her to get it?" Mamoru asked and waited a decent minute for her to answer.
But she didn't.
"Meroko-" Mamoru went up to her, "-what did Reign guard?" Meroko's eyes flickered to Azula then to the cats who had stopped working just to hear. "I can't help you unless I remember what happened and since those memories aren't coming fast enough you have to tell me. You have to trust us."
Meroko pursed her lips together and took in a small breath in before she finally spoke. "Princess Reign was the kindest person I knew but she was gifted with the darkest crystal known to the world." Her gaze slowly lowered as she continued to explain. "Her Shadow Crystal leads the way to the Shadow Dominion, a whole other universe. You understand that there are multiple universes right?"
"The theory of the multiverse," nodded Azula. "I love that theory. It basically says there are other worlds parallel to ours. There can be another world where there are no Sailor Scouts."
"Exactly," Meroko nodded and continued on with her own explanation. "The Shadow Dominion is a dark world parallel to ours. Behind its gates are the souls of everyone who lives and everyone who has died, as well as those who will one day be born. The Gates keeping that world sealed is sacred. Nothing should ever happen to that gate or else the world we know would be plunged into darkness."
"So, Reign guarded this dark world on her own," Mamoru didn't even want to think about the incredible burden Reign must have felt knowing she was in charge of keeping a dark world a secret from their own world.
"Yes, she would hear the voices of those trapped in that world, sometimes even talk to them," Meroko said. "Queen Nyx said that if Reign were able to harness her powers, Reign could be a true powerful figure. But Reign was discouraged from practicing her powers because it could tempt even her own people to try to take the Shadow Crystal."
"An unawakened princess who knows the way to some godforsaken world?" Azula released a big breath. "Well, that spells for definite trouble."
"We must find Princess Reign before Senka does," Meroko said with true urgency. "She holds the Shadow Crystal and if Senka gets to her first she can use the Crystal to open the Gates to the Shadow Dominion."
Knowing what was at stake now made the urgency ever more real. Luna cleared her throat to gather their attention to the screens. She and Artemis had pulled up several tabs of banks of information on Shadow.
Shadow was portrayed as a purplish planet glowing with a black shade surrounding it. There were patches of silver in no particular pattern.
"That's Shadow?" asked Azula who breathed in awe. In comparison to Earth and the Moon, Shadow looked...menacing, for a lack of a better word.
"Yes," Meroko stepped up beside her. Her eyes were big and glossy but she never let one tear escape. "It was once our world...many eons ago, before it was destroyed."
"What destroyed it?" Mamoru was quick to ask. He suspected Reign would have told him about it.
"Chaos," Meroko shivered with the mere word. Even Luna and Artemis had turned on their stools towards the girl. "The Sailor Wars took out many planets, including our sister planet. We and our sister planet fled after Chaos consumed our planets."
"What's 'the Sailor Wars'?" Azula asked the winning question of the hour. She glanced at the cats for the answer.
"I nearly forgot about that," Luna breathed in. Artemis hummed behind her.
"What is it?" Azula insisted.
"It was a legendary war between Chaos and all of the Sailor Scouts in the galaxy. It only ended because of one powerful Sailor Scout."
"But while that happened Chaos would search for anything to aid its cause," Meroko said bitterly. "And what could be better than a whole world of souls?"
"And so you hid Reign," Mamoru began to understand a little more. "Even when Chaos was gone…"
"There were many people who had lost others in the Sailor Wars and knowing that Princess Reign held the one way to see them again…"
"She would have been slaughtered," Azula frowned.
Meroko curtly nodded her head. "And even though she died anyways," she threw an accusing look to Mamoru in his chair.
"Which, you know, begs the question of why you were all reincarnated," Azula's remark made everyone pause and look at her. "I just meant, we know how Usagi, Mamoru and the rest of the girls were re-incaranted - Queen Serenity made it possible but...why did that include the Shadow Princess and her Guardians?"
"That is a good question," Artemis exchanged glances with Luna who seemed to agree.
"Don't look at me, I don't know anything," Meroko shook her head. "I guess Queen Nyx may have interfered."
"So then we have to find Reign, the Sailor Scouts of Shadow, and the Shadow Crystal," Mamoru listed off her fingers. "Also while stopping an evil Shadow soul. Yeah…"
"The task is not easy but if I can find my sister and my comrades then we can find Princess Reign and leave this planet," Meroko stated with a head held high.
"You want to...leave Earth?" Mamoru rose from his chair. "After everything you're asking us to do...you're going to leave?"
Meroko raised an eyebrow at him. "Well, Earth certainly won't hold what she requires here, will it? With its lack of knowledge of space and what goes on in it?"
"But where will you go?" Azula asked curiously.
"Maybe to find some descendants of our sister civilization-"
"-but you have no guarantee that they survived-" Azula began when Mamoru cut her off.
"If that's what you want, fine. But we're all looking for Reign and therefore we're on the same team. From now on, you don't keep secrets from us and we won't keep secrets from you, got that?"
Meroko regarded him with a level of respect in that moment. He was sounding a lot more like Endymion and that was who she needed to help her. "I accept." She then looked past him to Luna and Artemis. "And I also expect to be told of what the Moon Kingdom descendants are doing here too."
Both cats meowed in high pitches. Meroko smirked.
"Tell me, such elaborate base and for who? Azula, I think not," Meroko sent the girl a new smirk. "Am I to expect Silver Millennium's descendants to pop out any moment? Perhaps the Princess herself who owes my Princess a great deal?"
Azula's eyes lowered to Mamoru's hands which were balling into fists. He could handle anything just nothing that was shot at Serenity.
Meroko also saw him and smirked even wider. "That's okay, you won't have to tell me today. I have to keep searching for my sister. I feel like she's awakening first. That chill in the air you've been feeling? It's not climate change, it's Asteria. Goodbye," she gave a twinkle of her fingers and headed out.
~ 0 ~
Azula and Mamoru left the base and remained close to the arcade while they talked. There was certainly a lot left to talk about, after all.
"Are you going to tell her about Usagi and the rest of the Scouts?" Azula asked him after a moment.
"Well, Rei definitely is going to remember and if she does, she'll want to help…" Mamoru said as if he was thinking it in the process.
"Rei is one thing, and she'll make her choice, but the others? Minako, Makoto and Ami don't have a clue. Usagi definitely is no where near remembering either. Look, you're technically in command now," Azula smiled at him, "So, you make the call."
"I don't know," Mamoru said again, frustrated. "I want Usagi to remember me, but...she didn't want to be Sailor Moon. She wanted to be normal and I...I can't take that away from her."
"Okay, so then...we won't tell Meroko anything about Usagi and the rest of the girls, except for Rei," Azula nodded. "But I hope you know that doesn't mean you have to stay away from Usagi. She can be normal and still date you."
Mamoru briefly smiled. "I don't…"
"Hey!" they suddenly heard Rei's angry call. She was coming towards them in quick strides. She was irritated for how ignored she'd been since Mamoru rudely left her the previous day to help Azula and even Azula herself had yet to speak with her.
Azula's eyes went over Rei for a moment when she spotted a blonde stepping into the arcade. "Mamoru, I think I'm the one that has to explain things to Rei. You go into the arcade and follow my advice."
"But-"
"Just go and make the decision already," Azula gently pushed him forwards. "I'll wait for you at the park in an hour."
"You have some explaining to do!" Rei pointed a finger at the two but Azula pushed Mamoru one more time to take the furious Rei on her own.
"Yes, we do, and we're going to do that right now…" Azula motioned Rei to walk with her.
Suspiciously, Rei followed but she kept demanding to know what was going on. Azula did not hold back with Rei because she knew that one lie would only further angry Rei and really, who wanted that?
"I'm a Sailor Scout too?" Rei put a hand over her chest, blinking rapidly while she processed the thought.
"Sailor Mars and fiery one too," Azula confirmed. "You were a special scout, Rei, because you had like a sixth sense that no one else had."
"So why did I forget things?" Rei asked.
"Because your Princess thought it was for the best."
"But I'm supposed to protect my Princess...so how am I meant to do that?"
"Look, Princess Serenity wanted to be normal and she wanted you to be normal too. It's your decision if you want to remain being Hino Rei or also be Sailor Mars. But I can't tell you who your princess is nor your comrades."
"It'd be going against her wishes," Rei understood, albeit was a little annoyed by it. "But if it's my decision then I choose to be Sailor Mars again and help protect this planet from the evilness threatening it again."
"Are you sure about that?" Azula asked, her eyes boring into Rei waiting for her to truly decide.
Rei gave a firm nod. "Yes, I understand the implications. I want to help."
"Okay," Azula didn't persist longer. "I'll bring you to Luna and Artemis tomorrow so they can help you become Sailor Mars again."
"Who are they?"
"Um...I think I'll just show you tomorrow." Azula exchanged addresses and phone numbers all over again with Rei before parting ways.
She kept her word to wait for Mamoru at the park just to see what he ended up doing with his decision. She had to admit a level of stress was relieved from her shoulders knowing that she no longer had to make decisions for others. It didn't mean she was going to be completely out but at least...she wasn't the Prince of Earth or a Princess.
"I'm a better tech girl," she told herself confidently and waited by the fountain.
Eventually, the teen in question arrived with his usual straight face. His hands were stuffed in his pants pockets.
Azula kept facing the fountain. "So, did you tell Usagi?"
"No," he answered after a minute then sighed. "I can't take away her happiness. She's got a light in her eyes that...I can't. I just can't."
"Okay," Azula nodded, respecting the choice he made.
"But…" he scrunched his face, "...I asked her to dinner later."
Azula involuntarily released an incoherent noise but for his sake she swallowed most of it down. "That's...that's...really good."
"I applaud you for restraining yourself."
"Yeah, it wasn't easy…" Azula's eyes drifted to him and she bopped his side. "But you did it! And I'm so happy! Really!"
"I figured you were right, on a level, that it could still work," Mamoru nodded. "She can be normal and I'll be at her side, protecting her."
Azula laughed lightly. "Spoken like a true Prince. I hope I can find someone like that one day."
"They'd have to go through me first," Mamoru jokingly warned and yet not so much joking.
Azula swayed her head. "If you promise not scare them off. Remember that boy last year? Junji? He was so cute…"
"And a complete idiot," Mamoru reminded. "Believe me, if I hadn't ran him off, your father would have. Plus, Usagi agreed."
Azula rolled her eyes but laughed anyways. She was going to advocate for a small snack before heading home (because she was sure he was itching to get home and get ready for that date) when a strange noise from above caught their attention.
It was like a popping noise, really, and a heavy one.
From the corner of his eye, Mamoru saw a small figure literally drop out of thin air, from above, and crash onto Azula who, consequently, collapsed onto the ground. The red-haired girl shrieked as the hard cement greeted her back. When she opened her eyes she faced a little girl who couldn't look more than five years old staring right back at her with big, green eyes.

Hi there! I'm Joss and I'm a multi-fandom OC writer! I write OCs for the MCU, DC(TV), Doctor Who, Criminal Minds, SVU, Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts, Sailor Moon, Nancy Drew & TVDU worlds! This is my only OC blog and I cross-post through this blog, my FF and AO3 account. Kinda trying to figure out wattpad so I won't even bother with that one yet.
Honestly, I would just love to get to know more people in the OC community, bounce ideas with others and simply have fun talking about each others' OCs as I think that's probably the most fun thing for writers.
Right now, I've really been into my TVD/T.O OC Maleny Rowan. I've like mass produced almost 30 chapters and I can't say it was all during my Covid quarantine. I've also been focusing on my Flash OC Natalie Eveleigh, almost finishing her first fic!
Never done this before so hopefully I got it right! Thanks Kass for doing this 🥰!

Dream Queens! Queen Helia (oc) and Queen Badiane redesign Part one here Backstory and Design Notes under the cut
In canon Badiane is described as “a witch from another world”, and while she has a castle her only subjects are four literal children fd. Because of this I’m confident in saying that like Beryl, “Queen” is a chosen title, rather than an actual position of power. She’s got basically no backstory in canon, so this is all heacanon babey!! She was born a a high ranking aristocrat on their home planet Limina. Her family was “old blood”, so to speak, and felt themselves superior to most other oneiroi and especially to dreamers. To her, dreamers are basically batteries to be used for their dream energy then discarded. She felt that they should be the dominant species in the galaxy, and that their planet should be gaining power and subjugating others. This is drastically opposed to the position of the royal family, who emphasize positive interspecies relations and generally staying in your lane.
Badiane’s dark hair and pale skin made her superficially more like their ancestors, the first generation of oneiroi birthed by Nyx. This and her powerful magic made her a figurehead for oneiroi with anti-royal sentiments. Badiane’s growing resentment of the monarchy drew more negative dream energy to her, eventually turning her into a Mara. Queen Helia being the last of her line and having no heir weakened the position of the royal family in the eyes of the people, allowing her rebellion to grow quietly. Helia was the true Queen of Limina; and the last of remaining survivor of her lineage, descended from the Gods Morpheus and Calliope. Her family’s sailor crystal is tied to the Blue Star of Deneb, the tail of the constellation Cygnus. The Deneb crystal gives its holders power over dreams and divine inspiration. However, the Queen’s deep loneliness weakened her powers, and eventually led her heart to break. She tore her the crystal shard from her chest and buried it in the castle’s sacred garden, praying for a child. It’s said the gods took pity on their faithful daughter, as a baby was formed around the shard of her heart, and she took the child as her own.
Badiane knew that having an heir would rejuvenate the people’s faith in the monarch, so she made a last ditch swipe at power. She attempted to kill the baby princess. She was stopped and grevously injured by Helia, who punctured her chest with her bare hands in fury. Badiane and her few apprentices fled the planet, Poupelin taking his younger brother with him. She spent years slowly stealing the dream energy of children throughout the galaxy, feeding it into herself and making the black hole of dream energy she commanded larger. Then Sailor Moon kicked her ass in like an hour.

JGP Courchevel I
I think that being late in watching a figure skating event, let alone writing about it, is a constant with me so let’s get back to August! 
I watched some men, some ladies and of course ice dance. It should be noted that - probably because of high altitude - it was a challenging event for some skaters, mainly in the free program. 
Men
In men, I was the most impressed by Corey Circelli. He’s skating to Io ci saro by Andrea Bocelli in the SP and to the Nutcracker in the FP and I don’t know if there’s an even more dreamy combination of programs for me. He’s soft, elegant, great spinner, the spread eagle 3A, rippon jumps, such soothing skating. In the free it wasn’t his day, unfortunately, but he fought until the end of the program. 
I saw Ilia Malinin (Billie Jean / Nobody knows) properly for the first time here. He’s also a mature skater, completely different from Corey. His jumps in the SP were great. In the free he planned to do quads but wasn’t that successful. I liked his skating in the free program more, though. 
I liked Lucas Broussard with such a fun SP to Gin Tonic and then showing his more lyrical side with Yellow Moon in the FP. I’ll keep an eye on him. 
And now two French boys I’m especially happy for them that this JGP went well. The thing is I saw Francois Pitot first at senior French nationals in 2020 and Ian Vauclin (Fly me to the moon / ? ) maybe even a year before and the nationals ... didn’t go well for them. They were very young, competing with much stronger skaters so it’s understandable. But I’m very happy French public saw better performances now. 
Francois is so committed to the performance and I think he has a good relationship with his coach, Florent Amodio. I can even see Flo’s influence on Francois’ costumes ;) I love it that he’s skating to Rocketman in the free. He’s so into it that he almost fell in the step sequence ;)
Ladies
This time, I’ll talk very briefly about ladies because I focused on them more in my Courchevel II  post. I liked Kaiya Ruiter (Opportunity / Mulan), I hope she, Emily and Madelein will bring Canadian ladies back into the spotlight! 
Lindsay Thorngren has great jumps and I loved her Queen’s Gambit FP, with a 2A from an Ina Bauer and with a great spin at the end. 
Then there were two Korean ladies and one lady who switched from Korea to the USA fighting for the podium. Seoyeon Ji (Danse macabre / Piano concerto No 2), Ashun Yun (Smells like teen spirit / Mummy return) and Clare Seo (Rain in your black eyes / Cirque du soleil). They all had beautiful costumes and such nice skating skills. 
 Ice dance
There were twelve teams and yes, I’ll talk about all of them! At least one thing I liked about one of their dances.
Hailey Yu/Brendan Giang (River / Magical thinker)  Their complete stylization into the fairy tale ballet FP. 
Maya Benkiewicz/Nicolas Henault (No diggity / Russian sailors dance) The way they incorporated real Russian Kozachok dance into their choreography.
Daria Grimm/Michail Savitskiy (Going crazy with the blues / Sarabande) Nice, calm RD. Jazzy all the way. And their twizzles in the FP. The way they are smooth and quick at the same time. 
Miku Makita/Tayler Gunara (Leave the door open / Attack) They go full out, party on the ice!
Celina Fradji/Jean-Hannes Fourneaux (Ain’t no sunshine / Matrix) Just generally how they are getting better and mature I’ve been following them for some time. 
Hannah Lim/Ye Quan (Gangnam style/Cats) Are those my fave programs ever? No. But their choreographers are geniuses because now everybody would remember them. Also the acrobatic lift in the RD! And the paws in the FD ;)
Katarina Wolfkostin/Jeffrey Chan (MJ medley / Rain in your black eyes) They are awesome in general, especially the FD is breath-taking.
Tatjana Bunina/Ivan Kuznetsov (Imma Be/Writing on the wall) Amazing FP! The choreography is great. It matches the James Bond theme so well, there is always something going on, some action. 
Louise Bordet/Thomas Ghipoulou (California soul/Taranta) The character steps in the FD! The lifts and combo spins!
Kateřina Mrázková/Daniel Mrázek (Danny Cool/Poeta en el mar) The fire that is the FD! The power, the character steps. And a fun RD, that’s always a plus.
Vasilisa Akhramenka/Alessio Surenkov-Gultchev (Summertime / Tango) Nice sliding move and a lift while Alessio is skating backwards. 
Lika Bodnar/Artem Koval (Virtual insanity, Uptown Funk / Bedroom hymns) Great twizzles and the fact that they really enjoy their RD.

Been looking forward ot this one y’all- The Greatest Lake, which supposedly contains not just Hex (easily one of the funnest of the reboot’s villains) but also Kevin (who is, of course, the perfect being)! It’s bound to be wonderful, with a combo like that, and we’ll finally get an answer to the age-old question-
Does Hex go in the fucking pit
Another Kelly Turnbull episode! Which, again, means this is gonna be a good episode for story and visuals! I swear this woman is a fucking goddess.
You should’ve known better to cannonball around Ben, Gwen, we had a whole episode about this
Max has rented a speedboat for the sake of aquatic athletics
Attack of the killer lake. And here I thought you only had to worry about that if you were a Saturday
Erie’s gotten more handsy since I was last out there
Ben: Some bad guy must be trying to make me look bad at kneeboarding! Gwen: Yeah, that’s why you suck
Hi Hex
He’s not even paying attention, he’s busy reading
Hex: Stop bothering the beachgoers, we’ve got work to do Water Spirits: Sure boss
The Sword of MacGuffin. Of course. Of course that’s what he’s looking for. I love this show so much you guys.
Hex: *sees Ben* I see not even the sanctity of the Canadian border can stop your incessant pestering!
Just jumping straight to annihilation today
Welp, Hex having to choose between having an elemental army or blasting the Tennysons into the stratosphere
Hex: Fuck it, I got work to do and elemental armies to lead, my apprentice can handle this
Ben: “What kind of loser would actually wanna work with Hex?“ Kevin: “Hey!”
My son, y’all
Look at him
He’s got a matching hood and everything
And floaties
Floaties my son can’t even float
Dear gods save me this is too adorable
I mean he has a hood to match Hex’s that’s so fucking cute!
Even the Forever Dipshit didn’t even fucking bother to get him into the aesthetic! Of course I suppose Hex and Kevin’s aesthetics are easier to make work together
I swear Hex if you fuck this up I will have your head on a pike as a warning to any other adults that might run into Kevin, even if we’re mostly out of them
My booooyyyyy
Have I mentioned one of the floaties is a fucking giraffe one I mean my god
When you have to mute the show otherwise you will be overwhelmed because your son is on the screen and you are dying
Oh my fuck Kevin accusing Ben of being jealous that Hex took him under his wing lords preserve me
The thing is it’s not even like there’s nothing for Hex to build off with him I mean we all saw what Charmcaster was able to do with his poetry, if he can learn to make that shit work for himself he’ll be a true fucking terror.
Hex: “Not ‘intern’, apprentice. We’re sorcerers, not cubicle dwellers.”
How did these two even meet? How did this happen? How long has it been happening? Inquiring minds need to know
Oh look, a vaguely greek temple in Lake Erie.
Hex: “I haven’t had a plan work this seamlessly all summer. I’d be moved to tears if this eyeliner were waterproof.”
“Mr. Goth Wizard, sir?” my fucking god this child is too precious. Don’t fuck this up, Hex, for all our sakes!
Hex, leaving Kevin, quote, ‘in charge of destroying the Tennyson whelps’ while he heads for the temple so he can get this sword
Kevin is actually listening to what he’s told without the need for putdowns or belittling or any mouthiness on his part so far. This either a bad sign for how he’s taking the way these adults have been treating him so far or a good sign of how his time with Hex has been going
Hex: Have them destroyed by the time I get back Kevin: Don’t you wanna test the sword out in them? Hex: No, I want you to do as you’re told
And there we go, I’ve been here long enough it’s all a spiral from this point.
Kevin: *grumbles about how he better be learning some damn good magic to be putting up with this shit*
1) Ben picking Rath to fight in a lake. Because this child. 2) My son has spells. This is either going to be awesome or sad
Oh thanks show, cut to Hex why don’t you
The spell on the door takes so much mana to take out that the damn thing tried to eat Hex
And Max and Gwen have taken advantage of Kevin being distracted with Ben to take out Hex’s elementals
Hex is, how you say, not pleased
I really don’t know what he expected, given he can’t handle the Tennysons, but sure, your apprentice is gonna do better
Kevin is just having too much fun messing with Ben
I cannot help but feel, Hex, that you could’ve handled this whole mess smarter. Step one: I’m fairly certain apprentices aren’t supposed to be thrown out as a distraction while you go around doing magic without them
Kevin pls do not call your teacher a loser while he is in the area, given your track record...
Oh gods, he’s claiming Hex promised him the sword if this all works out and just, it ain’t
“You know he doesn’t care about you right?” Ben, honeybunch, I hate to have to actually say it, but so far with Kevin? Nobody fucking does. Like, that’s not even an armor-piercing question, that’s like stepping out and going “you know the sky’s still blue, right?” The closest we came to a non-Tennyson giving a rats ass about Kevin was Vin, and then he turned out to give more of a damn about having the approval of other adults than the did any child. Fucking Max is the most stable adult figure in his life by far and it’s not exactly a high bar to reach. Every other adult didn’t care about him, every single one, and if you’re gonna be trying to get through to Kevin with revelations then you may wanna figure that out!
*deep breath* I’m calm. I’m chill. I’m calm.
Kevin throws Ben into Hex on accident, not gonna end well
Oh lords Kevin’s not even using spells he was taught, he’s testing new material on Ben because of course he is
Although can we discuss the fact that he was doing well with it? Which means either he’s been practicing it on his own time or he’s got a natural talent for this shit, and given what his poetry did it could go either way
Oh lords ‘The Ancient Magi Code’ and talk of how he’s supposed to fucking follow it includes being expected to follow Hex’s instructions to the letter. Because we’ve all seen how well Kevin takes orders. I mean lords he was already getting aggravated about it earlier, even as he did it. He’s been positively behaving by his own standards.
And lo, arguing breaks out between the teacher who’s really not that good at it and who is very tradition focused, and the student who is very much an independent soul who doesn’t take orders well and needs a more... positive approach.
Welp.
Can we just discuss the growth, the difference between Kevin here and Kevin when he was working with the Forever Dipshit? There’s actual concern about having fucked up here, for one, which he never showed with regards to FD despite the fact that one tried to kill him at one point for not following orders exactly. Just, if nothing else it’s a good indicator of the difference between his relationships with the two, where one is a teacher and semi-reasonable at least while the other was just, a complete piece of shit. I mean Hex taught Kevin magic and practiced it with him, promised him a fucking sword, while FD just gave him a tv dinner and a bad attitude
“-unabashed, unrepentant incompetence!” Goddamn, Hex, breathe! Also the boy ain’t incompetent he’s just fucking 11. That’s at the low end for apprenticing, even historically, and you’ve also got the fact that he’s an independent little sod and that you’ve been treating him more like a minion than an apprentice today (it’s a big difference). This is a fuck-up, and the arguing back is annoying, but still the situation with him is manageable.
My poor son did not expect major consequences, such as being dropped as an apprentice and losing the fucking shit that was helping him use magic period
Hex, fucking done, is getting that fucking sword if it kills him so he can have one fucking success this summer
Kevin, as always, does not take such insults lightly. Cue ‘out for blood’ face
Ben: “I can’t stand you, and even I thought Hex was being a real jerk back there” Kevin: “Yeah, I was doing a pretty good job kicking your butt before he distracted me”
All said while the Tennysons are picking up a Kevin out of the lake. I swear this is just the only way this boy knows to interact with people
Okay I paused after Hex fucking unveiled the temple again sent the whole groups crashing to the bottom of the lake as an offhand consequence and y’all the look on my boy’s face when he hears Hex growling about needing that damn sword. The fucking sad puppy eyes!
Tumblr media
Look at that face!! My poor baby! He is so sad and so hurt!
Ben and Kevin, working together to kick Hex’s giant water elemental’s butt
Oh my fuck mutual transformation sequence. wtf is this Sailor Moon?
Kevin, noticing Ben has armored aliens now: Bitch!
The problem, is that much as I try I can’t mention everything. There’s so much good
Kevin, as Bootleg: Get out the boat, I’m hijacking it Gwen: No Kevin: Okay *hijacks it with them inside*
Gwen: *incredible excited to now have a boat with a canon because Kevin is awesome like that* Max: *concerned about whether Boatleg meets safety standards*
“Useless child. I can retrieve the Sword of MacGuffin without his assistance.” I don’t believe anyone was claiming otherwise, Hex. Although I think you’re going to find it difficult to do with him actively working against you. I’m afraid they’re his only settings
Max, on the giant water elemental: Maybe it just needs a friend and a big hug Kevin: Unlikely
Gwen, coming in with the plan to save the day
Even as a boat Kevin is a very agile little thing
Here lies Hex, dead of lake
Oh my gods dark magic is against the rules of the lake
Kevin: That was probably my only chance to use a cool cursed sword. Thanks a lot, Tennyson. Ben: Bitch!
Ben making the valid point that Kevin was at real risk of having to suck up to Hex for the next several millennia
The fucking cop telling Hex to get with the century and invest in some waterproof eyeliner
This just in, both boys are equally shit at kneeboarding.
10/11, Hex doesn’t go in the pit, but he may wanna be careful the next time he shares an episode with Kevin

hello! are there any good fics with a femdom theme that you'd recommend? doesn't matter the fandom, just trying to find some well written gfd/fd fics tbh
I don’t recall reading many since the fandom I usually read fanfic for (Sailor Moon) doesn’t often delve into that.
But the first two that came fic that immediately came to mind when I saw this ask are two Yoosung of Mystic Messenger fanfics. They’re short little delicious bites of femdom goodness!
https://archiveofourown.org/users/suzunesays/pseuds/suzunesays/works?fandom_id=10843759
Searching on Ao3 with the tags “femdom” “gentle femdom” or “female domination” & changing the drop down filter from ‘date updated’ to ‘kudos’ or ‘hits’ should pull up some of the most popular fanfic for that topic within multiple fandoms. Hopefully you find something you’ll enjoy!

Ch.11: Goodbye, Reyna
Story Masterlist
Fandom: Sailor Moon (Crystal)
Rewrite of season 2, AU-ish in that there’s new OCs and the fusion of plots from the manga, crystal and the og series
Pairings: Eventual OFC x OMC, Usagi x Mamoru
Taglist: @ocappreciationtag​​​​ @arrthurpendragon​​​​​​​​​ @anotherunreadblog​​​​​​​​​ @maaaaarveeeeel​​​​​​​​​ @stareyedplanet​​​​​​​​​​​ @foxesandmagic​​ 
Tumblr media
In the base, Meroko stood beside her sister, Asteria, in civilian forms and listened as Asteria relayed how it was she came to be after thousands of years.
"Queen Nyx had felt Princess Reign's death the moment it happened but instead of telling me and the rest of the guardians to retrieve the body...she said we had an important mission to do," Asteria's pale face was partially hidden by her blue and silver-tipped hair falling over her shoulders. "She said Princess Reign had done her duty well even in death and that it was now up to the rest of us to follow in suit. Sailor Circe, our magical guardian, used her teleporting powers to send our people to our sister civilization who had found a new planet to live on and then Queen Nyx, uh, she...she used the last of her powers to put me and my two other guardians in cryogenic stasis on Earth."
"So you've been sleeping for thousands of years since then?" Azula crinkled her nose at the thought. She loved sleep as much as the next person but that was too much.
Asteria nodded. "Queen Nyx said that Princess Reign would be reincarnated by the grace of Queen Serenity, along with my sister—" she put a hand on Meroko's arm, "—because it was imperative that the Shadow Crystal remain protected. Since Princess Reign would one day re-awaken, she would need the rest of her guardians with her."
"But then that confirms that your Queen had contact with not only your sister planet but also with Silver Millenium," Usagi noted. "She knew my Mother…"
"And once upon a time you knew Princess Reign," Asteria said with obvious disdain. Since she had learned that the Moon Princess had also been reincarnated, she hadn't really wanted to speak with any of the girls and much less Usagi. "And then you let her die…"
"Hey," Mamoru cut in before Asteria would go further, because he had no doubt she would, "That is something you're gonna have to stop saying."
"Truth hurts? Not my problem," Asteria shrugged her shoulders. "The only reason I'm here explaining everything to you all is because my sister made me. I, frankly, would rather us work alone than join forces with the lot that killed my Princess."
"I'm sorry about that, really," Usagi wanted to be believed so badly even though she herself couldn't remember this Shadow princess. It was hard trying to picture this entire story without the proper memories. She hoped the memories would start coming now that she was learning about them.
"We don't know what exactly happened," Mamoru added on. "No one does except Reign herself and until she joins us and explains everything, we're not going to blame anyone."
Asteria crossed her arms and looked to the side. Mamoru remembered the girl to be much more stubborn and challenging than Sailor Hemera. Even now, Asteria remained the same.
"Asteria has agreed to the terms of our accordance," Meroko spoke up. "We'll work together to find Princess Reign and defeat Senka and then afterwards we'll leave to find the rest of our people."
"We can get to work on that then by cross referencing any sorts of jewels in the area," Azula thought out loud. "It's a stretch but it's a start."
Asteria scoffed at her. "You believe my Princess would let her Crystal hide in plain sight?"
"Well, Usagi's crystal hid inside her body so unless you find Reign this is all we have right now," Azula retorted within the second. She wasn't here for snappy attitudes, especially with the girl who had stabbed her with literal stars.
Asteria released a breath and looked at Meroko. "I'm hungry. Could we go to that cafe shop you talked about in the morning?"
Meroko nodded and told her sister to start heading out first. When Asteria was out of hearing shot, she addressed the group. "I know Asteria is…"
"Snotty? Rude?" Minako finished for her and yelped when Makoto elbowed her. "What?"
Meroko sighed. "I know it's difficult for everyone, alright? But Asteria has been asleep for thousands of years and this is a new world for her to get used to. To say, she refuses to adopt a human name."
"The name she lives by is the least of our problems," Rei pointed out. "If she doesn't work with us then finding Reign, the Shadow Crystal and defeating Senka is going to become a lot more difficult."
"And it doesn't help when she keeps throwing the death of Reign in our faces," Makoto huffed. "Especially to Usagi."
"Are you sure Princess Reign truly died because Serenity?" Ami asked curiously. It was a whole story to learn once they all regained their memories, and as such they had some doubts.
"Yes, I know she did," Meroko nodded. "I was guarding the barrier when I heard the humans' uproar. I didn't make it to Reign on time but I did see Prince Endymion's lifeless body on the ground while Reign and Serenity ran off."
Usagi leaned on Mamoru for some support because she truly did not remember anything about Reign and the guilt was getting to her. "I just...I just remember taking my own life...that's all…"
"But if Reign ran with you...and she died first...wouldn't that sort of imply she died trying to protect you too?" Azula tapped her chin with her finger. They all knew the story about how Endymion had given his life to protect Serenity. That made sense given their relationship. Reign, however, had no reason to do the same for Serenity, as terrible as that sounded.
It was an idea that not even Meroko had thought about, judging by the horrified look on her face. It would mean that their belief about Reign's death was completely wrong. "Why would she do that for a girl she didn't even know?"
"Because maybe she did know Serenity…" Mamoru said before he could even begin to think about the meaning behind his words. He needed to start to remembering faster.

"This is...pie…?" Asteria jabbed her fork into the piece of cheesecake in front of her.
Meroko sat across her in their booth and smiled. "Yes. It's a popular dessert and a good one if I say so myself." She grabbed a nearby fork and dug it into her own piece. "Azula introduced me to it."
Asteria stopped her fork just inches from her mouth. "You seem to be a little too warm with these Silver Millenniums."
"Actually, Azula is the only normal human in the group so you can eat that slice calmly."
Asteria never liked jokes much. Thousands of years wouldn't change that. "Hemera you do remember that they are the cause - both Silver Millenniums and humans - of the death of our Princess?"
"Yes, and believe me I've been just as angry as you are right now. But I learned that these people can be trusted," Meroko argued logically. "The more time you spend not cooperating with them, the more time we'll have to work with them. Think about that for a moment, will you?"
Asteria didn't have to think long to know Meroko was right. "Fine. I will be...more civilized. But I don't like them."
"Well you don't have to. You just have to work with them." Asteria finally tried the cheesecake bit on her fork and immediately "mmd" in delight at the flavor. Meroko chuckled at her sister. "Good, huh?"
"Maybe these humans aren't all that bad," Asteria dug her fork into the cheesecake again. "So tell me about Senka. What's going on with her?"
Meroko forgot how straight-to-business her sister was. "Well, she's getting stronger. She's taking energy from the humans to reclaim her figure. She's almost there now so I assume afterwards she's going to start really searching for the Shadow Crystal."
"Good luck," Asteria said in-between bites. "Queen Nyx made it clear before we were all put to sleep that Princess Reign had hidden the Crystal well."
Meroko trusted in her Queen's words but couldn't help wonder how it was that Reign had hidden the Crystal in her final moments. She looked around before she spoke again because this time it was a much more dire question. "How do you think Senka got out through the gates of the Shadow Dominion?"
Asteria paused her eating for a second. "Well, with Princess Reign's death, the Gates must have suffered a severage due to their linkage and it provided Senka a tiny hole to get out through."
"If there's a hole, no matter how small, then we need to fix it," Meroko then whispered again, "Can we get to the Gates of the Shadow Dominion?"
"No," Asteria shot the idea down on the spot. "Of course we can't. Only Princess Reign knows the way. We don't know anything about the Gates."
"And Senka, obviously," Meroko mumbled.
"Senka is a dangerous creature and we cannot allow her to continue searching for the Shadow Crystal."
"Asteria, the last times we've seen Senka she said...she said something odd…"
"Like?"
"That she's 'meshed' by the greatest soldiers. What does that mean?"
Asteria gulped and put her fork down. Her pale face had gone even paler. "I don't know as much as Circe did about the Shadow Dominion, but I do know this: Shadows in the Shadow Dominion can sometimes merge to create a stronger being. Those Shadows could be the souls of Sailor Guardians or other warriors, dead or alive from this world."
Meroko's eyes widened. "So we could be fighting a culmination of the best warriors in the universe? Asteria, how are we going to defeat them?"
"We can," Asteria assured her. "Princess Reign can use the Shadow Crystal to seal Senka away. I have faith in her, don't you?"
"Of course," Meroko leaned back against her seat and thought about Princess Reign's task to put Senka down. The girl was in for a rude awakening.

"I can help too, Rei!" Reyna laughed delightfully as she ran across Rei's shrine courtyard to gather a dust pan. "My Mommy says I'm a good helper! I can do lots of stuff!" she snatched the dustpan off the ground and ran back to where Rei was already brooming. While Reyna began listing the many things she could help out with, the rest of the girls watched from the sides with fair amusement.
"Where did she come from again?" Minako asked Azula who was lying down on the ground with her arms tucked behind her head.
"From the sky?" Azula replied and moved one arm over her eyes to shield them from the sun.
"No, seriously," Minako said again.
"I am being serious," Azula's voice sharpened a bit. "She literally dropped from the sky and nearly crushed me to the ground."
"She can't weigh that much," Usagi chuckled with a hand in front of her mouth. "She's only five."
"And mega annoying!"
"Aw, I think she's kinda cute," Makoto watched as Reyna helped Rei collect the dust.
"But it would be helpful to know where it is she's from," Ami looked up from her book. "Has she said anything to you, Azula?"
"You'd be surprised to know that despite the big chatterbox Reyna is, she hasn't said a word about her home nor her parents." And that drove Azula mad. Every time Azula would ask Reyna about her parents and home, Reyna would change the topic. "You'd think if my daughter were missing I'd go out and look for her or something. Or even put up missing daughter posters."
"Maybe they don't know she's gone," Usagi shrugged.
"Well, she fell from the sky so...I doubt she came prepared," Azula sat up and stared at Reyna. "But then...where the hell is she from? She's not a regular child, that much we know." She gestured to herself as living proof of Reyna's special abilities. She'd spent time at the hospital for her injuries - something that had been explained to her dad and sister as a mere consequence of being at the wrong place at the wrong time - and then suddenly Reyna got the idea to 'help' and somehow the little girl had healed Azula in minutes. It was an odd thing but Azula couldn't say she was mad about it. "And she knows about Senka, I know she does."
"All this Senka stuff is confusing," Usagi released a bit breath. "It would definitely help if we could get something out of her. God knows Mamoru won't say a word to me about it."
"To be fair, he probably doesn't even know himself," Azula leaned back on her hands. "He said that the memories aren't coming back fast enough."
"Well that's what he's doing today, apparently," Usagi muttered. "Trying to remember more. You'd think he'd want to spend more time with me since I have my memories back.'
The rest of the girls laughed at the blonde. Hearing their laughter, Reyna came scurrying up to them. There was a smudge of dust on her cheek and on her left knee. "What's funny?"
"Oh, Usagi having problems with her boyfriend," Minako sobered from her laughter first.
"Ew, boys," Reyna crinkled her nose. "Did you know boys can make you sick?"
"Are you talking about cooties?" Azula looked at the others girls. "That's still a thing?"
"It's true though," Reyna assured. "My cousin told me."
"Your cousin wanted to fool you,' Azula clarified. "And props to her because looks like she did it."
Reyna frowned at her. "My cousin wouldn't lie. Lying is bad."
"I know lying is bad," Azula mimicked her tone. "Doesn't mean people won't do it."
"My Mommy doesn't lie!"
"Kid, I'm sure she does—"
"No, she doesn't!" Reyna stomped her foot.
Ami cleared her throat to prevent Azula from further arguing. She flashed a gentle smile at Reyna who was busy glaring at Azula. "Reyna, what's your Mommy like?" Azula snorted but Makoto elbowed her on the side and motioned to stay quiet.
"My Mommy's the best," Reyna said, her mood instantly changed. "She wears all these fancy dresses and she's really pretty too. Everyone loves her but my Daddy loves her the most. And then me!"
Ami hummed, showing she was acknowledging Reyna's explanations. "And what do your parents do? What's their jobs?"
"Um…they look after people. They love doing that. One day, I want to do that too."
"What's your Mommy's name?"
Reyna suddenly went silent. "I don't want to talk anymore," she stated so plainly and hurried away.
"And that is what I have to deal with everyday," Azula gestured after Reyna who'd taken to collecting leaves off the nearby grass.
"Other than the fact she's hiding what she knows about Senka, she truly does seem harmless," Ami concluded and opened her book again.
"Uuuh, are we forgetting the fact she hypnotized my Dad and my sister into believing she was another member of the family?"
"Where'd she get that sort of magic?" Usagi tilted her head and watched Reyna. The child seemed normal at first glance.
"I wish I knew," Azula muttered. "I just don't get why she's here, you know?"
"Mhm," the girls felt her frustration and together they gazed upon the mysterious little girl who was having the time of her life picking up brown crunchy leaves off the ground.

Azula made it a habit of startling people when they were sitting alone. This time her victim was Mamoru at school, but she was mighty disappointed to see her presence wasn't even noticed. He was staring off into space and she was sure it had nothing to do with Usagi.
"Okay, what thy hell, are you doing?"
Mamoru came out from his thoughts and gave her an odd look for her choice of words.
"I just had a Shakespearean lesson."
"You paid attention?"
"Oh, funny," Azula went with it for a moment. "But not as funny as watching Asteria trying to figure out how to do calculus."
Mamoru wished Azula could at least keep it serious with Asteria since the girl was trying to handle being a human at a human school. "How's she doing on her first day?"
"Right now, a bit better than you. What were you thinking about?"
"Honestly," Mamoru sighed, "I'm trying to remember things about Reign. I haven't had anything new in a while now."
"Why don't you ask Meroko or Asteria for help. I mean, if anyone can talk about Reign I imagine it'd be her followers."
"I'm not sure if Meroko and Asteria are up for conversing…"
"Mm, wouldn't be so quick on that judgement," Meroko was coming up behind the bench Azula and Mamoru were sitting on. Asteria was right behind her sister. "Whaddya need, prince?"
Mamoru was by now better used to Meroko's way of being and merely ignored her in that aspect. "I want to know more about Reign. I want to remember more."
Meroko looked over to Asteria because out of the two, Astera would remember more. "What? I'm just supposed to tell you everything I know?" asked the pale girl.
"That would be really helpful," Mamoru kept his kindness in check. Asteria was harder to deal with than her sister but being snappy as she was wouldn't help anyone.
"He can use his abilities to go into your mind and see things you've lived through," Azula explained.
"I'm supposed to let you wander in my mind?" Asteria asked with wide, alarmed eyes.
"Just the memories of Reign."
"Asteria…" Meroko gave her sister a significant look, reminding her of their previous conversation concerning the team.
"Fine, what do I have to do?"
Mamoru stood up and gestured for her to give him her hand. Asteria rolled her eyes and stuck out her right hand. He grasped her hand and focused on the right sort of memories he would be requiring. Asteria released a small gasp when she felt his presence in her mind.
A woman dressed in a purple sparkling gown stared out her open window to her kingdom. There were phenomenal silver lights tonight. "Tell me, Asteria, what is Shadow celebrating tonight?" Her soft voice asked of the other woman in the grand bedroom.
Sailor Asteria remained by the doorway of Princess Reign's bedroom, her usual post during the day. "I believe it is the Harvest today, Princess. Many of the locals like to give thanks to the Gods for allowing us another year of prospect within our hidden kingdom."
"It looks beautiful from up here," Reign mused at all the silver lights now mixing with purple, twinkling from the Kingdom.
"I shall go call upon Sailor Siren to look after you until my sister arrives to take up post," Sailor Asteria began to open the door of the bedroom when Reign turned around.
Of course when she did, Sailor Asteria could not look Reign directly. The enchantment that kept Reign's identity a secret allowed for no one to see her. And so, Asteria missed the curiosity etched across Reign's face.
"Do the humans celebrate the Harvest like we do?"
"I do not think they do, Princess," Asteria paused for a second to think. "I believe they celebrate something of a new year but...certainly not the Harvest."
"I wish I could see for myself," Reign lamented her reclusive status. It was no fun being locked away every day, but no one seemed to really get that.
"You must stay in the Palace for your own safety, Princess," Asteria reminded before she walked out of Reign's bedroom.
Both Azula and Meroko knew for sure Mamoru had seen something. Mamoru slowly let go of Asteria's hand and looked away to process what he'd seen.
"That ability is a complete invasion of privacy," Asteria clutched her hand to her chest, looking almost mad Mamoru had been able to see something.
"Oh shut up," Azula told her with a wave of a hand, ignoring Asteria's glare. "Mamoru, what did you see?"
"Reign...and she was…" he tilted his head and stopped talking for a minute. "I just can't see her face."
"Well of course," went both Asteria and Meroko.
"I know," Mamoru sighed. "Because of the enchantment placed on her."
"That's inconvenient," Azula frowned. "But, I suppose, strong since it remains cast even in memories."
"I hardly find precautions for our Princess amusing," Asteria said curtly.
"I'm just saying..." Azula rose up from the bench and crossed her arms, "How could you swear eternal loyalty and protection if you never knew what Reign looked like? I mean, you didn't know her."
"It was the only way to keep her safe!" snapped Asteria. "You don't understand the danger Reign poses if she exposed herself. The enchantment law was placed after the Forbidden Soldiers' uproar."
"Forbidden soldiers?"
"It's a whole other story but it was a massive threat for Reign and so after the guardians were cast away, Queen Nyx declared that Princess Reign's identity should be hidden, even from us."
"This is crazy," Mamoru shook his head. "How are we supposed to find her if no one knows what she looks like?"
"Princess Reign holds the Shadow Crystal, and so if we find the Crystal we find Reign herself," Meroko replied. The bells chimed signaling it was time to return to class and for Mamoru and Azula it was time to think about the newest details of Reign.

"Hey Luna," Usagi entered the base under the arcade and was unsurprised to find Luna hard at work on the command station. "What are you doing?"
"Oh, same as I've been doing since Senka's first appearance, searching for valuable information on Shadow and the Shadow Dominion."
Usagi sighed. "I've tried my hardest, Luna, but I can't remember anything about Princess Reign. I know Mamo is having the same problem."
"Usagi you may have never even met Reign," Luna stopped working for a second. "You can't remember things that never happened."
"But if this princess died because of me, the least I can do is remember her," Usagi crossed her arms. "Where was she from again?"
"Shadow. It's a planet off in a different galaxy that was destroyed long before you were born," Luna went over the facts they already knew. "Both it and its sister planet were destroyed in a war and it led to Shadow's movement to Earth."
"And they just hid like nothing…"
"Well, we now know that despite the hiding, Queen Nyx of Shadow held contact with Queen Serenity and its sister planet apart from the Earth Royalty."
Usagi crossed her arms and thought about the idea of having a secret world living right under their noses. She didn't have a long time to think about it when an alarm went off from the computers. Luna quickly stopped her work to see what the alarm was for.
"It's Senka, she's attacking the flower shop down Tutter Street!"
"I'm on it!" Usagi exclaimed and hurried out.

Azula truly wondered how much more of Reyna's chatterboxing abilities she would be able to take. It was a whole mixture of things Reyna would talk about, ranging from her favorite thing to eat all the way to what kind of ice cream flavor she would like to be.
"Oh my God if I buy you an ice cream, will you stop talking?" Azula finally snapped and stopped walking just to ask.
Reyna giggled and nodded her head. "My Daddy says that he used to talk a lot when he was younger."
"God help your mother, then," Azula muttered and began to walk again. She was mildly surprised when Reyna easily slipped her hand into hers just to walk together.
The two were forced to stop when they saw the evil shadow once more raging in the air.
"Not her again…" Reyna very quickly whimpered at the sight of Senka. "When does Sailor Reign defeat her?"
"What!?" Azula gaped at the question and, consequently, missed Senka's attack coming her way.
"Watch out!" Reyna acted and pushed Azula to the street, her small body falling over Azula's.
A street pole had flown just over them and came crashing down over a car parked on the sidewalk. Azula breathed hard as she realized that Reyna had quite literally saved her life.
"Are you okay?" Reyna climbed off Azula and grabbed her hand.
"Y-yeah, I...you saved my life…again." Azula could not stop blinking. Reyna cracked a small smile.
"No! No! Let me go!" cried a girl. Azula and Reyna saw a young teenage girl being lifted into the air by Senka.
"What delicious energy you give me," Senka laughed. Now it was easier to see her figure. It almost looked like Sailor Moon had never attacked her in the first place. "You are enough to complete my figure once more!"
"Halt evil spirit!" Sailor Mars stood tall and proud across the street. ""Agent of Love and Fire, the pretty sailor suited soldier Sailor Mars! In the name of Mars, I will chastise you!"
"You again," Senka growled. "I have grown stronger since the last time we met and I assure you this time, no silly moon stick will stop me."
"Well, we'll just see about that," Sailor Mars promised. "Burning Mandala!"
Senka dodged two of the fire blasts but intook the last two. She yelped with pain but this time held her ground. A bigger surge of energy emitted from the human in her grasp and she laughed an echoing laugh. "Mysterious masked kiss!"
Sailor Mars was victim to several shocks of black thunder-lips. She screamed and fell to her knees.
"Senka!" Sailor Hemera was running towards the scene.
Sailor Asteria didn't bother calling out. She got straight to business and threw forwards her silver star tattoos. Senka dodged them and let go of the human who fell down with a thud on the roadside. Her next victims were unthinkable. Her black tendrils reached out to take Sailor Mars into her possession, followed by Sailor Hemera and Sailor Asteria.
"NO!" Azula cried out and scrambled to get on her feet.
Senka turned around, her entire figure beginning to glimmer as she the final energy she needed to be fully restored. "Shall you become my next prey, dear?"
"Let them go!" Azula pleaded but Senka did nothing. The three Sailor Scouts writhed in agony as their energy left them.
"Azula, we have to go!" Reyna sounded like she was begging for them to leave. She was terrified and Azula knew it but she couldn't bring herself to leave her friends behind. "Reyna," Azula bent down in front of the girl, "I know you and I don't see quite eye to eye but in this case just listen to me. Run home, okay? Run home and you lock that door."
"But I-I don't know…" Reyna's eyes filled with tears. Her breathing hitched as she neared to cry. "I-I want my Mommy...my D-Daddy…"
"Yes, okay, yes, I get that! But you have to listen to me!" Azula shook the girl. "Run! Just ru- ah!"
Senka had reached out to grab her as well. "Show me your Crystal!"
Azula felt a cold surging through her body as she was taken away by Senka. It was all a bit fast. She could hear Reyna crying and her friends' painful shouts yet she herself couldn't really muster a sound.
Reyna furiously cried in her spot to where a purple glow began to surround her. It drew the attention of the incoming Sailor Moon and the other Sailor Scouts.
"What's happening?" Sailor Jupiter could only wonder.
"Whatever it is... it's not our priority," Sailor Venus pointed at their friends up in the air.
"Mercury Aqua mist!" Sailor Mercury covered the area with her thick, frosty mist. "You get the girls and we'll get Reyna!" she motioned to Sailor Jupiter and herself.
"Venus Crescent Beam!" Sailor Venus shot directly at the tendrils holding Sailor Mars, Asteria and Hemera. The three were let go but Azula was still in Senka's grasp.
For Senka it did not matter anymore because now she had her true form. She was a light-skinned woman with long, flowing black hair. It appeared there was an M-shaped crown sitting around her face. Her outfit was a pitch black dress with a short skirt and a sleeveless top; it almost resembled a familiar uniform. A gem at the middle of her chest shined in various colors. There were thick, black bracelets sitting on both of her wrists, however one bracelet had a green gem at the center while the other had a purple gem. She held onto a fierce-looking black staff that looked like it would cause mega trouble if used properly.
Azula was arching backwards as an illuminating white glow started at her chest. "Show me the crystal!"
"Magic chain sniper!"
Senka was surprised by two purple and silver metal chains that snapped at her like lassos, forcing her to drop Azula. Before Azula could crash on the ground, Tuxedo Mask swept in and caught her.
"I almost forgot how evil and persistent you were," boomed a sharp voice.
"That...voice…" Sailor Asteria groaned.
"Is it really…?" Sailor Hemera twisted in Sailor Jupiter's hold to see who the new woman was.
Reyna had even stopped her crying to see, because she too recognized that voice. Uh oh, she was in trouble. "C-Circe!"
An older version of Sailor Circe rose in the air with the same purple glow that surrounded Reyna's form. Her green eyes glared at Senka. "You will never win this battle, Senka. Know that." She pointed one finger at Senka and uttered, "Magic sparkle venom!" a black beam of energy shot from her finger and hit Senka square in the chest.
The woman screamed in pain and ultimately faded away, but everyone knew it was yet another temporary situation. Sailor Circe lowered herself to the ground just as Reyna zoomed towards her.
"Circe!" she cried in a mixture of happiness and tears. She wrapped her small arms around Circe's legs.
"Reyna, you know better than to time travel," Sailor Circe bent down in front of the girl. "Your mother and father have been going crazy looking for you."
Reyna pouted. "I thought I was supposed to come."
Circe raised an eyebrow. "Now why would you think that?"
"The voices in my head told me."
Circe only had a moment to react to that before she was ambushed by the other Sailor Scouts.
"Circe! It's you!" Sailor Hemera was being supported by Sailor Jupiter.
"We didn't feel you awake," Sailor Asteria had Sailor Venus helping her stay on her feet.
Sailor Circe pursed her lips together with an unusual grave face. "My fellow guardians, it is I, Sailor Circe, but not the Circe meant to awaken." Reyna turned around at the push of Circe. "I am from the future sent back here to retrieve Princess Reyna."
"Princess!?" this time Azula was the one to gawk. She had Tuxedo Mask helping her stand but she was sending deadly eyes at Reyna. "You know, that makes a lot of sense. You time traveled you little brat and you didn't even time travel correctly so that you wouldn't crush people!"
Sailor Circe put a comforting hand on Reyna's shoulder. "Time Traveling is forbidden and Princess Reyna here, knew that. I am sorry for any disruptions she may have caused but I will be bringing her home now."
"I'm sorry," Reyna apologized to the entire group in such a child-like voice that the group just couldn't be angry with her.
"You didn't do anything wrong," Sailor Moon smiled at her.
"I loved the stories about the Sailor Scouts," Reyna started smiling widely as she remembered the stories everyone at home would tell her.
"Yeah? Say, who was your favorite Sailor Scout?" Sailor Moon innocently wondered.
In her excitement, Reyna didn't think twice in answering with, "Sailor Reign!"
Everyone's mouths dropped.
"Reyna!" Sailor Circe at once commanded silence from the little girl. Reyna quickly covered her mouth with her hands and looked down at the ground. Sailor Circe gazed at the others who were either trying to process or waited for an explanation. "You must understand that we are not allowed to disclose anything from the future. Reyna is still learning that."
"But she said...Sailor Reign…" Sailor Mercury said, "That means...Princess Reign is also a Sailor Guardian."
"It makes sense if she's the Guardian of the Shadow Dominion Gates," Azula inputted her thoughts.
"We must get going," Sailor Circe motioned Reyna to take her hand.
"Wait, Circe," Meroko stopped her for a moment, "If you're from the future...that means we find each other again…?"
Sailor Circe flashed a smile at her younger versions of comrades. "Indeed. Sailor Siren and I will soon make our returns. Save our Princess," she parted with those words. She took out a silver key, with its handle in the shape of a heart, and raised it over her head. "Guardian of time! Tear apart the sky and open the Door of Space-Time to us! I call your true name, the almighty god of time, the guardian of time's father, Chronos! Guidance to us! Protection to us! The path of light to us!"
A great blinding light ruptured from the sky and engulfed Sailor Circe and Reyna together, and after it was gone, so were the two. The rest of group was left in different stages of shock and confusion, but the one thing they shared was the idea of Sailor Reign and what that indicated.
~0~
Sailor Circe and Reyna had appeared in a cloud-like environment with white mist covering most of the area. Circe was gripping Reyna's hand as she led the girl towards the appearance of a silver door.
"The Queen and King were very distraught about your disappearance, Princess," Circe was saying. "They have most of our Sailor Guardians searching for you."
"I'm sorry. But the voices in my head told me I needed to go back in time," Reyna insisted.
"Okay," Circe stopped walking and turned to the girl. She bent down in front of Reyna and looked the girl in the eyes. "You're going to have to tell Sailor Circe about these voices."
Reyna pouted but she did go on to explain. "There were many voices but they all said Sailor Reign was in trouble. I had to go back in time to the 21st century."
"That doesn't make sense, though…" Sailor Circe thought for a second then raised her two index fingers. "Reyna, Sailor Circe is going to see those voices in your head, okay?"
"Mhm," Reyna closed her eyes and let Circe complete the task.
'The one they call Sailor Reign needs help. Only you can help her.'
A floating figure hidden behind a purple cloak flashed in Circe's mind.
'You need to go back in time...help the Princess...before it's too late!'
Sailor Circe gasped as she let go of Reyna. She gave the girl a long, alarmed stare until she finally straightened up on her feet and took Reyna's hand. "We need to get back home right now."
But both Sailor Circe and Reyna returned to a very different kind of home.
A dark, silent one.

Current Music Obsessions: January 2020
First CMO post of the year! I thought I'd reiterate how these posts work for those who might be new to them. I talk about my favorite songs I listened to over the past month starting out with the two part honorable mentions (the first half are songs I enjoyed, but the second half are songs I loved and have links to where you can check them out) and then we have my main obsessions listed afterwards. So let's see those honorable mentions!
Aeverium - Safe Harbour Eleine - All Shall Burn Withered - Like Locusts Last Performance - Collapse of Empire Anna Fiori - Renacer (Versión Acústica) The Murder of My Sweet - Worth Fighting For Miss FD - Vagaries Reism - Take it from Me Visions of Atlantis - The Siren and the Sailor Nanowar of Steel - Valhalleluja feat. Angus McFife (Gloryhammer) Sharks in Your Mouth - Fear Me, Feed Me Trail of Tears - Farewell to Sanity Seven Spires - Drowner of Worlds Ianwill - Blackout Kazaky - We Should Be Like No One Else Wheel - Farewell Promethee - Old Bones
Valkea Valo - Treasure FKA twigs - Sad Day Neverlight - Unravel Sinphonia - Silence Diabulus in Musica - Otoi Kesha - My Own Dance Iamthemorning - Song of Psyche Glycerin - Wish I Was You Delain - One Second Glasya - Ignis Sanctus Cellar Darling - Love, Pt. 2 Cathubodua - Hydra Scarlet Moon - Agony Rosegarden Funeral Party - Mirror's Image Starset - Telekinetic Anna Fiori - De la Tierra My Black Light - Noise for Sale My Dying Bride - Your Broken Shore The Lust - Gone (Paradise Lost cover) Septarian - The Maw Atargatis - Ebon Queen
And here are the songs I was truly obsessed with over the month of January.
Aghiazma - Zombie Dogs
I learned about these guys through my music channel on YouTube when someone recommended me to possibly do a reaction video to these guys. The title really caught my attention and this song is absolutely bad ass. This singer is no longer with them, but holy tits am I obsessed with their voice and makeup.
Blackbriar - Madwoman in the Attic
Hands down my favorite song off of Our Mortal Remains and is tied for my favorite song from them (Snow White and Rose Red is the one it's neck and neck with). It's so beautiful and so powerful. This is the only song of its kind in their repertoire and it stands out so much. The chorus is absolutely stunning and packs such a wallop.
MARUV - To Be Mine
I checked out the Hellcat Story EP for a reaction video and really fell in love with this track. It starts out super soft and pretty, but then takes a dramatic dark turn and I absolutely love it. MARUV's voice is so lovely on this track, and that wild production just really makes this song so good.
If You Want Her
This is the last song off the Hellcat Story EP and it is gorgeous. It's such a spectacular track and really shows off her range so beautifully. I really love the Ukrainian verse at the end of the track. I just adds this really fun flare to this fun, but kinda sad track.
The Dark Element - When it all Comes Down
Without a doubt my favorite off the album. The chorus packs such a wonderfully powerful punch and just further proves that Anette Olzon is such an amazing singer. It's so beautiful, powerful, epic, stunning, amazing; I can go on with other descriptors for how good it is, but it will get annoying. Definitely check this track out.
Metalite - Warrior
I wasn't entirely sure if I would enjoy the new album after hearing the first single (it was pretty bland in my opinion), but it definitely was a lot of fun and this track is definitely one of those fun songs. It really shows off their new singer's vocal range and just has a really fun vibe to it.
Chariot the Moon - All the Same
I randomly came across this song one day and quickly fell in love with it. It's a really cool take on prog and their singer's voice is really unique to the genre. It's almost like a blend of alternative, nu metal, and prog and is super fun. I'm definitely gonna check out more from them.
Belle Morte - Lace
I learned about these guys a little while ago through a Facebook ad and decided to check out some of their stuff and enjoyed it. But then they dropped this single and bitch is it stunning. The orchestrations, the simple yet effective vocal lines, the dark yet dreamy atmosphere; it's absolutely amazing. It's such a fresh take on gothic metal and I can't wait for them to drop more music.
And that's it for January. February I'm gonna begin listening to new releases since some albums have dropped already and it's time to start that journey, and with it comes having a lot of music to listen to, so prepare for long lists.

Mackynzie Renee Duggar
Apparently I can’t do this while drinking because I get distracted 😂
So sober FundieDrama, and Mr. FundieDrama are watching the birth and getting our snark on.
First, I figured I’d give you a small background on us. We’ve had 2 hospital c-section deliveries. The first was a planned induction, the second a scheduled c-section. After that I had 3 home VBA2Cs. Two went perfectly, the third not so perfectly.
Alright, here we go. They are recapping how Josh and Anna are so awesome and God loves them because they didn’t kiss before marriage. Lots of stupid recaps. This really isn’t what I want to snark on. Come on, let’s get to the birth. And show less of Josh!
Mr. FD, “Why are we watching horny teenagers? Why is she watching him like he hung the damn moon?”
(I might not have told him what is going on here.)
Mr. FD: “LEAVE IT UP TO GOD?!?”
Turd: That’s the first thing I asked Anna was how’s your relationship with God?
Well, god says I’m awesome. So I guess we are good 😂 wtf question is that?!????
Okay, so Anna is planning a drug free hospital birth. She has the same doctor as Michelle. That’s all fine and dandy (and weird as fuck.) But they had a plan. Plans are good.
Blah blah blah car lot. Anna is so awkward.
Oh! So they are taking Bradley Classes. Background on these classes, I have both taught them and taken them. They specialize in natural birth, in which the father helps the mother. They are WONDERFUL. They are amazing at helping the parents bond, build trust, help both parties to understand the process. They are 12 weeks long. They do not advocate for homebirths, many do have homebirths or birthing center births. These classes were great for my husband and I.
Mrs. Theresa is NOT a doctor. She’s not a midwife. She teaches a childbirth class. She took some training for the classes (lots of books to be read, conferences to attend, and being a doula as well.) But she shouldn’t be delivering babies.
As a mother of 5 kids, I’m currently shaking my head at the paper plates. I mean sure less dishes but THE GARBAGE. I try to have the least amount of garbage possible. Family of 7, we only have 1 small garbage can each week. Fucking Duggars. Mr. FD is cringing.
Ah, the baby shower. Back when Jill was good with kids.
Mr. FD, “Why are her flip flops so flat, they look like she’s going to step through them at any moment!”
Mr. FD says he won’t continue watching until she’s actually in labor. He’s on snack duty.
Jinger looks like me when I sleep in my eyeliner.
So stupid. Dr. Sarver is out of town. Did no one tell them you don’t usually get your doctor when you deliver? It’s whoever is on call. Clearly this means impromptu homebirths. With a doula as your midwife. Eye freaking roll.
Mr. FD came back. He brought some rum. Because at this point it’s needed.
Jenni is losing her shit over Jill leaving to go to the birth. Breaks my heart.
As a doula Mrs. Theresa is pretty good. Helping Anna, reminding her she’s doing it. Even Josh is actually pretty good. He’s very calm and reassuring. I mean, the guy is a jackass but he’s being a good help during her labor.
Poor Anna. I can’t imagine being on of these woman. I swore a sailor and and was super dramatic. With my last baby I had my MIL there and felt like I couldn’t swear as much or tell Mr. FD off when he annoyed me (he claims I could have.)
Mr. FD wants to know how Anna could have possibly made it through fully clothed and in a skirt. Even in the Bradley classes one of the mile markers of labor is “loss of modesty.” I am not someone who likes to be naked and the moment I decide my clothes piss me off is when everyone knows it’s time for baby to come. Such constraints on birthing are just a mentle mind fuck.
So in conclusion: Anna decided to have an unassisted homebirths with no medical professionals simply because no one told her that even if Dr. Sarver was in town she probably wouldn’t be at the birth unless she was on call. And how dare anyone else see her parts. Which is so angering on so many levels.
I need to make screen shots somehow……
