Oh, and if I hated Sailor Moon I sure as hell wouldn't be spending this
much time on a story for it. Do you know how many hours went into this
chapter? Argh. It's the POV of a guy who is the Senshi's enemy, you can't
expect it to be _too_ nice now, can you?

Actually, I have read many fanfics where the only conclusion I could draw
was that the author of the story HATED the series in question, and wanted
to destroy and revile it.  

Oh well, I've stated my position; if people choose to not believe me, I'm
really not going to lose too much sleep over it. I'm not so much angry or
annoyed over flames as I am... well, to put it bluntly, amused. They've 
been really sad, but they're all operating under the misconception that I'm
doing this in a fiction assassination attempt. 

I think the Usagi scene from this episode is proof enough against such an
accusation, but I wouldn't be reading this if I thought you were out to
destroy all that is good :)

 

Yet again, I'll state the reason I did this story in _Sailor Moon_; 
disappointment at the one-dimensionalness of SM fiction villains. The original 
SM villains had something; Jadeite's flash of niceness in the Love Boat story, 
Ail and Ann's entire reason for being on Earth, Fiore's relationship with
Mamoru.

The Zodiac who...oh wait, that's me and Jeff's story :)

And since Tuxboy is around in the future, he ought to know they won't be
able to hold him.

>From his POV, his very presence should be altering the 'past', so he can't 
think about absolutes of what happens in the future anymore. Unless he wants 
to, of course.

Good point.
