[sailorheadcanons]

Queen Beryl is in love with Queen Metalia. It's a jealous toxic kind of love and devotion of dedicating your life to another, to bring them back and aweken them. Beryl spends so much time and effort trying to bring her back with unquestioning loyalty even if she could have an evil kingdom of her own. That's kinda gay if you ask me.

[arikitari-josei-osaka-naru]

Metallic Sailor Sun (Osaka Naru)

Osaka Naru never gained this form until the 30th century, but, In her past life in the Golden Kingdom in the era of the Silver Milennium Moon Kingdom, she was "Princess Osakaite", Beryl's secret daughter. She regained that dark form in Crystal Tokyo, trying to revive the Shitennou before being drawn into battle against her estranged best friend Usagi.

She is directly linked to Queen Metallia, and never became Sailor Sun in her past life; to do so is apocalypse-adjacent, a little like the "Messiah of Silence" Sailor Saturn who has a connection with Pharaoh 90. In her past life, Osakaite willingly sealed up her powers (with the help of the Shitennou) in an attempt to prevent the destruction of SilMil and the Golden Kingdom; but she was killed by the DD Girls, and soon afterwards both kingdoms fell anyway.

The seal wasn't perfect, which is my headcanon for why she canonically glows red in episode 23 when protecting Nephrite from the moon tiara- her sealed powers are trying (and failing) to emerge...

In the 30th century she's finally able to become a Sailor Soldier for the first time with the help of Usagi and Helios (who guards a part of the sun's power in Elysion), and she acts as a counterpart with Eternal Sailor Moon!

Her costume parallels Eternal Sailor Moon's,, although the black parts represent the sealed Queen Metalia, and a balance between Cosmos and Chaos. She also has the same style of shoulder epaulets as the Golden Kingdom form of Sir Nephrite, and her collar and fuku resemble the piping of a Shitennou uniform, representing her connection between the Earth and the Moon.

However, she still looks up to Usagi, who is ultimately the main heroine of the setting- but the estranged friends are finally reunited as partners, working together to try to save the universe at the end of time.

She can use "Sun Orbital Attraction" to telekinetically pull or push things in a circle around her (turns out attracting monsters was an actual power all along XD). This power may also work on the solar senshi for coordination maneuvers...?

Her staff is the same crystal ball staff Beryl used in the 90s anime (Beryl's own staff is the pointy one from the manga/crystal, and in one random scene of the anime), but in it's purified form it's revealed to be the "Sun Stick"!

With the Sun Stick she can use "Sun Healing Energization", which doesn't purify things like Sailor Moon, but can physically heal people by willingly giving them some of her own energy (which she also kinda halfway did in episode 19 by suddenly giving the surrpised "Tuxedo Nephrite" her energy).

If I stick to my guns and keep this in continuity with my previous 512TR(ans) comic, then Naru may secretly have been a transgender girl all along, and thus mistakenly thought she could never be a real sailor soldier... but Usagi and the senshi tell her she's just as much of a real girl as any of them 🏳️‍⚧️

By the way, there's also a beautiful and awesome webcomic being made by JKellicu on ComicFury about Naru becoming Sailor Earth. Although my approach is different, I consider Sailor Earth a major inspiration and I love it! If Naru-as-a-senshi stories interest you, hers is a must-read!:

[ligbi]

I'm having Sailor Moon thoughts for the first time in a long time and

The cats.

They're from Planet Mau. We all know this. We also know they existed in the Silver Millenium and Queen Serenity put them into a stasis to wait for Usagi to need them after she's been reborn -She's been re-born before according to Sailor Moon Sailor Stars Musical, but that was an era of peace(?). While we don't know the exact time the cats awoke, it seems to be after Beryl's reincarnation accidentally woke Metallia up at the D Point, so it seems fair to assume the seal on Metallia and on the cats was linked.

Now, Queen Serenity doesn't come from our solar system, and is from another Galaxy (as is Nehellenia), but Pluto/Uranus/Neptune and the Inners seem to have been born in the Galaxy, as was presumably Saturn who slept until she was called upon to destroy the world after the cats were sent away. What we don't know is when the cats came to the Moon from Mau.

Did Queen Serenity take them with her when she fled from her place of origin? Were they ambassadors sent to the our Galaxy? Tin Nyanko recognized Luna and Artemis as Mau residents, but didn't seem to know them personally- it seems like she assumed they escaped when Galaxia came to the planet to murder everyone.

I have obvious opinions on the timeline of Silver Millennium events- Queen Serenity left her home during the early days of the Sailor Wars because it takes Galaxia a while to murder Everyone, Nehellenia's curse summoned a poor clone of Chaos to the sun which created Metallia, the events with Artuka happened while Endymion and the Princess were courting, Beryl did a lot wrong but I forgive her anyway, ect ect, but Why the cats were there in the first place isn't explained and we can't use the same crow logic for them.

Lead Crow knew Phobos and Deimos during the Silver Millennium Era, and that they were chosen to be trained as soldiers- presumably a type of Sailor Senshi- under Mars. Chosen by whom is unclear but Queen Serenity hand picked Mars to be, well, Mars, and we can assume did the same with the other girls, so it seems like a sailor crystal is gifted to you and linked with your star seed- or maybe replaces it?- which makes some sense since Queen Serenity just showed up to this galaxy and took over crystal duties- and appointing a child to guard the door of time and space. Is Pluto the only person in the universe doing that, or are there other doors in other galaxies? Did Queen Serenity have some type of Senshi-adjacent duty before she had to leave?

But the cats don't have sailor crystals and don't seem like they were training to become senshi- one for obvious reasons since even with the Golden Crystal Mamoru is still just...whatever he is, and the other-look PGSM is the best Sailor Moon, but it does Not fit in with the greater canon sorry Sailor Luna with your Candy themed attacks- so let's assume they....what? moved to the Moon to be advisors? Was Queen Serenity a big deal 'elsewhere' and that's what people of Mau who aren't even here to train as senshi are so close to the royal family? Was she taking in refugees from other planets that were destroyed by Galaxia? That could explain the residents of Moon and the castles of the other senshi, and why they just have castles that seem to be rules by the Moon, instead of their own kingdoms.

I know this solar system has great balance for harboring star seeds, which is why it gets to be the specialist place in the universe, and the last one Galaxia attacks, but was it the new ancient magical alien equivalent of the U.N. after the first was was presumably destroyed by Galaxia? That would explain some things, I guess.

I also think Mau was a version of Loveless which explains why human!Diana has a tail but Artemis and Luna don't (th3y hd th4 seggz ~>.<~)

VxK Week Day 7: Chain

@senshixshitennouweeks

"It feels like I'm chained to her."

Queen Beryl's mouth formed a thin line as that single sentence broke her concentration. Of her four generals, Kunzite was the least likely to complain or disobey. Ever since they’d formed the Dark Kingdom to secure their future as Earth’s rightful rulers, he had carried out every single one of her orders without delay.

This new development, however, was giving her pause.

“Chained, you say?”

From his place genuflect before her throne, Kunzite nodded.

“Yes.”

Beryl rose, taking her staff in hand and walking past the kneeling general.

“Walk with me,” she said. Not a command, more of a suggestion. Never the less, Kunzite rose and fell into step beside her.

“Tell me more of this…”

Beryl waved her hand, as if she could pluck the word that evaded her from the air.

“…thing.” She finished.

Kunzite sighed.

“Sailor Venus,” he said, “I suppose I first felt it when we first met.”

“In the Minato Ward?” Beryl asked.

“Yes,” Kunzite said, “only it wasn’t as strong then. Now…”

kunzite sighed, his gaze dropping to the stony floor beneath their feet.

“Now, it feels like I’m expecting to find her every time I go outside.

Queen Beryl nodded, leading the two of them to a stairwell that led deep into the recesses of their lair.

"And these feelings you describe," Beryl askdd, "You hold them in higher regard than your loyalty to our great ruler?"

"Never."

The two stopped before a missive pair of doors hewn from the cave wall in intricate detail. Tension, minute but perceptible, flowed into Kunzite's shoulders.

"What is this place?"

Beryl broke away from Kunzite and took a position to the left of the door.

"A place I always go for a little... assurance." the Queen of Darkness said.

The doors opened and the light of Queen Metallia flowed outward, swallowing everything in it's path.

It was tedious, thought Beryl, to have to erase the memories of one of her generals whenever memories of their passionate affairs with the Moon Princess's personal guard floated to the surface of their minds.

But if she was going to become ruler of the earth, as she was destined to be, the only person Kunzite needed to be chained to was her.

Story Idea: Usagi's Moonlight Knight persona

Hello! I was over on Ao3 rereading Daikon's fic "R is for Reverse" when this bit of inspiration hit me. Usa has Mamo, Moon has Tux, there's many fan versions of Darkity for Dendy, Ren has Dymi - whether as Young Royals or Older ones - but who does Moonlight Knight have? No one. So I thought to fix that. Because I love the idea of there being counterparts for each identity they have. Just need to think up one that makes sense for Cosmos, and Chaos don't count as far as I'm concerned 'cause she's against Cosmos not with her as the rest are!

During the Doom Tree/Makaiju Arc, instead of Mamo being the only one who doesn't remember (one could have it go that the hit to his head he's implied to have suffered in the season Finale is what triggers his memory's restoration the night of the day Usa volunteered to be his emotional support, just to keep the antagonistic beginning between them, or whatever else that was supposed to be) fighting against the Dark Kingdom til the Climax of the Arc, it's Usa who stays in the dark. And instead of Moon getting an upgrade from Queen Serenity and the girls from the Mauians, it's that Tuxie and the girls, once they also remember, get an upgrade from Usa's own version of Mamo's Moonlight Knight persona.

Luna goes to restore Usa's memory the night Naru's being attacked but it simply doesn't work for some reason, so the draining happens until TK shows up and stops it. But, since TK doesn't have a finishing move to secure the victory that also returns the stolen energy, the Cardian flees before it's destroyed as its gotten some energy for its masters and those affected have to be sent to the hospital.

I'm of the mind that whatever she's called, in contrast to the Moonlight Knight, Usa's Arabian Nights inspired persona is dressed all in black, opaque veil included, with various silver winking constellations shimmering all over the fabric, Mamoru's astrological sign of Leo on the translucent, shimmery black cape with his planetary symbol of Earth seen above between her shoulder blades with her odango'ed hair silvered and her Royal Birthmark on her forehead. Or you could go for a black domino masked female version of Vampire Hunter D's outfit (her odangos sticking out on either side of where the crown meets the brim), or Sango-from-Inuyasha's Taijiya outfit and mask with the pigtails curled up however they went when she was wearing her wedding dress in the Cosmos movie if you don't want to do the Arabian Nights thing to signify that she's all warrior.

All that said she's the personified hardship, heartache, strife, and sense of duty that Usagi/Serenity used to strengthen herself and her resolve for the final fight against Beryl/Metallia that was purged alongside her memories. Or it's the Silver Crystal's doing due to Usagi's dying wish having been deeply nuanced in that it did a whole bunch of things without conscious thought from Usa as she passed out/died. One of them being that she could actually fight without having to use the Crystal, and another being that (for now) she didn't have to protect said Crystal because it's not with her and her brooch is nowhere to be seen or found (it's actually being used to anchor Usa's other persona since her Seat of Power is the White Moon, not Earth like Mamo) because her main wish - that she and her loved ones can live normal lives - had more of a focus.

So! For the 'reveal' of Usa and her persona being separate, I was thinking it could go that Tux has stopped his love from fleeing for whatever reason, he's since realized that their roles have reversed in that it's Usa who doesn't know about her new persona as he hadn't known about Tux until the Rainbow Crystal he'd gotten hold of had helped him retain his memories, but for whatever reason her other persona does remember her past as Moon and Serenity and the love they share. All that aside, after trying to get some info from her that she wasn't willing to give, though she's still willing to snuggle in his embrace for a moment or two before leaving, he's obviously bewildered when he hears Usa calling for him and turns to find her rounding the corner because she's looking for Mamoru; because while they may not get along all that often he's still someone she cares for and worries about. Tux turns to look at his thought-to-be partner but she's already rounding another corner in the opposite direction; only knowing she's real because he caught the flapping edge of her shimmery cape as it disappeared from his line of sight. Usa and the one he'd just fought alongside... weren't the same person? What the hell's going on?! He needed to meet up with the Senshi and tell them what he'd just discovered.

Anyway! Feel free to take this and make it your own, you don't have to use it word for word if you don't want to, in whatever way you've been inspired. I only ask that you let me know what your fic's called and where you've posted it so that I may read it and gush. Thank you, have a nice day!

Favorite Villains of Anime for Children

Myotismon - Digimon Adventure is an exceptional childrens' anime with a great assortment of villains. However, the one who stands tall among the rest is Myotismon, the vampiric Digimon who decides to take the fight in the Digital World to his human enemies' home world of Earth, creating the most personal level of stakes in the series. Myotismon is as charismatic as he is cruel, an equal parts attractive and repulsive presence in the tradition of Dracula and all other famous vampires of that ilk. And even if it wasn't written ideally, it's still impressive that he ended up being the mastermind behind all the evil that transpired in the sequel series Digimon Adventure 02. It's a testament to what an effective, unforgettable villain he was.

The Dark Kingdom - The villains of the original Sailor Moon anime series, the Dark Kingdom (known in the first English dub as "the Negaverse") were a very classic sort. An evil witch-like queen, Queen Beryl, and her four generals tasked with villainous operations on Earth that each carries out with a distinct style: Jadeite using disguises and deception in order to steal energy, Nephrite combining potent astrological power with skillful personal manipulations, Zoisite playing as dirty as humanly possible to come out on top, and Kunzite using military-style strategies and deadly traps to counteract his enemies. On top of that is Metallia, the terrifying demonic entity the Dark Kingdom serves and seeks to fully resurrect. The story arc they served as antagonists of was perfectly paced and wonderfully executed, serving as many children's introduction to anime and anime villains. And for this they deserve respect.

  Act 021 Abandoned

Pretty Guardian ✶ Sailor Moon

Characters: Original Characters, Canon Characters-mentioned Rating: Teen, Older Teen Genre: Angst, Action, Fantasy (Magical Girl) Song: “Nemo” – Nightwish

Disclaimer: I do not own Pretty Guardian Sailor Moon.  I only own my version of the Zodiac Senshi, Phoenix, Ophiuchus, and Andromeda.

✦✶✦

Oh, how I wish For soothing rain All I wish is to dream again My loving heart Lost in the dark For hope I’d give my everything

✦✶✦

She stayed there like she was told for many years.  Millennia had passed and still she was looking into the direction of the Cauldron.  The very Cauldron that gave birth to all the stars, planets and satellites.  She pulled back a braided strand of hair as she held the Caduceus close to her.  Everyone had gone on to reincarnate somewhere else.  And here she was keeping her position for years on end.

Left alone.

Abandoned.

Tears stung her eyes as they welled within her eyelids.  She was the only one the enemy did not know nor touched.  Was she unimportant to the enemy?  No, she was just as important as the others in the Empire’s alliance.  The previous Empress gave her an important duty as their Guardian of Hope.  If she could only remember the Empress’ words, the voice, and the warm eyes that pleaded with her to protect her next of kin.

Ophiuchus placed a hand over her heart and closed her eyes.  Her red-violet eyes opened after a while, knowing what she must do.  Wings sprouted from her Sailor Suit and she jumped into the sparkling and dangerous void.  She glided through the deep canvas of space towards the middle of the universe.  She was able to withstand the temptation of throwing herself into the Cauldron.  She was the only one besides Sailor Aquarius to have been, but now Sailor Aquarius was light years away leaving Sailor Ophiuchus to do this duty alone.

Left alone.

Abandoned.

But was she?

She lifted her Caduceus and both metallic snakes hissed and their eyes glowed.  They slithered off the Caduceus and glided through the air around her.  They were protective and represented the constellation of Serpens which Asclepios tamed.  The son of the Sun god who offered the elixir to humanity and was punished.  Ophiuchus closed her eyes again to listen to the voices within the Cauldron.  Some of the voices sounded kind but others snickered.

“Alone, abandoned?  C’mon, jump in,” the rest have said.

“Left alone, little one?  They flew off towards the Moon Kingdom,” the kind ones proclaimed.

“Moon Kingdom, where will that be exactly?” Ophiuchus’ head tilted.

She ignored the snickering voices, while the kind ones started to speak again.�� “The Moon Kingdom is in the Solar System.  It is the satellite Kingdom of Earth, and watches over the Terrestrials.  You must hurry, the others will be facing Queen Metallia!”

Red-violet eyes widened.  “Again?”

“Yes.  You must hurry.”

Left alone.

Abandoned.

But was she?

No.  They needed to flee, but they were not prepared for a rematch against Queen Metallia!  Ophiuchus thanked the voices within the Cauldron.  The metallic serpents wrapped around the Caduceus again, and their eyes dimmed.  Ophiuchus outstretched her wings for the longest journey of her life.  She gave a running start before she took off into the spangled void again.

“Will she make it?” The kind ones wondered at the snickering voices within the Cauldron.

“No,” the snickering voices answered with a maniacal laugh.

When Nehalennia cast her curse during the Silver Millennium, she wasn't actually invoking any magic. She was actually just cryptically referring to Metalia. Since they were both spawns of Chaos, Nehalennia knew Metalia was asleep in the Sun.

[sailormoonrewrite]

I'll be honest I don't hate the Break Up Arc as much as I used to since it showed that Mamoru and Usagi do love each other for each other not their past lives since they were miserable without each other and I think that it does make sense for Mamoru to have visions and dreams that he can misinterpret based on the fact that he and Usagi were killed in their past lives and after Metallia.

However, the problem I have is why would Endymion send him these dreams? Endymion has been in love with his wife for over 1000 years. Endymion who should know better. Endymion should know how they would take being forcibly separated. And yes I know it's to test their love and show them that they will get through this, but firstly, they did that on their own in the manga where they just talk things over with Usagi's jealousy towards Chibiusa so there's no reason they wouldn't do that here without the added stress of 'you will die if you marry', and secondly this could have catastrophic effects on the timeline for him and his family which he should know would happen. So, yeah, Endymion sending the dream makes no sense, especially versus all the other potential people that would or can try to destroy Usamamo.

Wiseman ~ He has the powers of manipulation, mind control, and time so why can't he send dreams to the past to try and break up Usamamo so they can never marry and Crystal Tokyo can't come about? Also, remember it's Usamamo's love for each other that gives them the most strength so tearing them apart while their relationship is still young, also would cause them both to be weakened making it even easier for the Black Moon to conquer past and present Earth so it makes perfect sense for him given he as the motive and means to do so.

Prince Demande ~ Another candidate that could work. He's obsessed with Neo-Queen Serenity and has the power of his third eye which causes people to go against their own will so why couldn't he be able to send dreams to the King in the past in order to leave past Neo-Queen Serenity alone and vulnerable enough for him to steal away.

Mamoru's own misinterpretations ~ Let's face it, Mamoru's' been through a lot. His parents died when he was 6, he was raised in an orphanage, he had to grow up quickly, spent most of his nights gallivanting around in a tuxedo on the thin hope a mystical princess will help him, finds out the beautiful bunhead girl he meets is also his princess who died along with him is actually his soulmate, gets turned evil by his crazy past stalker, he dies again in this life and is resurrected with no memories, and gets stalked before reuniting with his beautiful bunhead. That's a lot for 17/18 year old to deal with so like I said before it could make sense if after meeting Chibiusa, Mamoru begins getting vision after vision of Crystal Tokyo destroyed until he sees Usagi in a crystal coffin and himself as seemingly a ghost. Well, running on sleep deprivation and coffee, Mamoru misinterprets their seeming deaths and the deaths of everyone on Earth to himself which causes him to break up with Usagi in an attempt to protect her from this dark future. This could also be a great way to show Mamoru's inner insecurities and his survivor's guilt while also being a great way to show his and Usagi's relationship grow where she reminds him that they're strongest together and he doesn't have to bear the weight of the world on his shoulders alone.

Story idea: Dark!Serenity - Ep 34 Rewrite

I've thought of another Darkity idea! Because I really hated when those authors who attempted the whole 'Usa's been kidnapped and brainwashed' bit in place of Mamo didn't commit to the angst and heartache in regards to her friends and lover. That Usa didn't stay corrupted for more than a few scenes or chapter or two, her inherent goodness and/or love purifying/cleansing herself in one way or another, to fight against her loved ones. And I get it, I do, she's too pure for the world at fourteen years old, but still - give me the delicious drama! And I believe I've thought of a plausible way for there to be a reason for the prolonged corruption with this bit of backstory.

The Nijizuishou have combined to form the Ginzuishou but Zoi reacts too fast for the Princess's reveal to happen immediately after. SM is sent flying from TK when she goes to stand as in canon with one of Zoi's crystals embedded in her chest and promptly loses consciousness or, for all intents and purposes, dies. The Crystal, reacting to its wielder's emotions before they shut down, enters TK's body to begin healing him (to which I mean, boost the Kinzuishou's own healing abilities, because the Ginzuishou cleanses, purifies and empowers or, if anything, returns one's state to a previous one as needed/wished for but it doesn't actually heal, without outright bringing it out of its own dormant state; because I'm of the opinion that if Mamo can support Usa with her Crystal she can support him with his) but leave Zoi and Kunz unable to take him because the Senshi saw where the Crystal went, even though they have no idea why, and surround him to keep him safe so they take SM since she's the Finisher, the Powerhouse, the Leader.

But! While the Crystal isn't quite sentient, it's still not just gonna let its true wielder die. What makes Usa Usagi is within the Crystal through her tear, which itself is safe within Mamo's heart and its partner Crystal, while her corpse is being revived and going to be used as a puppet for the DK's purposes as is implied what happened with Endou in the Manga but she'd be a bit more like Dendy of the 90s anime in that she can transform into New Moon. She's black where she used to be white, dark colors where used to be bright, and her brooch black/silver where once it was pink/gold and the gems/colors of her fellow senshi have been replaced with Zoisite, Jadeite, Kunzite and Nephrite in their respective spots. You can decide whether New Moon revives the fallen Shittenou because she feels she can be a better Queen than Beryl and would prove it to Metallia by killing her and usurping her 'throne' after suborning her dead and alive Generals to her side by use of respect regarding one's authority, abilities, power and a show of ruthlessness they can display rather than gain loyalty by using fear and hurt and death because one's not being blindly obedient. Or it's simply Metallia herself marrionetting her enemy's reincarnated daughter's body and seeing how powerful she is and what she can do without realizing who she's marrionetting.

Meanwhile, Mamo remembers his past and, more importantly, Serenity and who she is to him, his Usako, but the girls and cats - only bits and pieces of the Manga canon apply here - don't. They're willing to protect and work with him now that he has the Crystal inside him (not that he's all that happy about that since he remembers how they all, sans SM since V and Artie don't count as they're new to the group) treated him before the Crystal made its appearance, but they still need to find their Princess to get it back and wield it to save the world; their Princess who can't possibly be that stupid, clumsy, gluttonous Odango Atama.

V's obviously not of the same, harsh opinion as Mars, or as critical in her thinking of SM's abilities (or lack thereof) as Merc and J might be, but it's not like she's been around long enough to know much more about her Leader before she was killed. Something Mamo's not wanting to listen to because he knows she's still alive; how can you be so cold about her possible death?! She's a Senshi, so her duty to protect Crystal and Princess came first; they didn't know what she was going to do when the Crystal appeared as she'd been killed before she could do it, and it was tragic all the same, but still. And what about her friends, her family?! They can be made to forget so that they don't have to grieve a girl that was destined for things they didn't understand or need to get involved in.

It's strange to Mamo days later, his Usako erased from existence from all who once knew and loved her bar him, he wasn't willing to add the Senshi to the list for what they've done, that he had yet to be attacked despite Zoi calling him out over the TV in his apartment, not knowing that the Crystal was hiding him. The Dark Kingdom knows TK is Dymi reborn but Mamoru Chiba being TK just doesn't register with them anymore, the only one of the DK who can see him out of his tux is the one called Rin (and no, that's not a typo; she's called Rin in the DK, not Ren because they don't know she's the reincarnated Serenity but they still had to call her something) and she's not registering the two as one and the same either. The heartache, and deep vindication, he feels when a certain Tiara grazes him, or loops around him in a bind, while he's fighting against the energy gathering youma he's discovered at his hair dresser's salon for his regular trimming as he sees gold pigtail streamers. He knew it! He knew she was alive! She's alive and she's here, her fuku's looking weird he realizes as his magic dissipates the glamour field surrounding her but she's healthy and alive and... his enemy? Wait, what?
