*bows* Thank you. I appreciate that vote of confidence from a fellow Moon
author. :)
(To be honest, I think this chapter in particular kind of scared some people
off...)

Heh, doumo. Yeah...back in October of 2003, when I was first watching PGSM,
and had been dabbling in some of the other assorted fansub fare of the time,
I came up with this, and wrote 1.8 chapters of it. Back then, the title was
"Tsuki to Chikyuu to Ai no Senshi", a play on the absurd title of the
magical yurifest "Yami to Boushi to Hon no Tabibito" (which, ironically, I
only ever bothered watching one episode of...)
So last week, after the latest chapter of 4200 hit, and after I'd already
been thinking Sailormoon again for a few days, an idea hit me while I was
getting ready for a doctor visit, and that very evening, I dusted off
TtCtAnS, retitled it, and got back to work on it.
And the ideas...oh god the ideas for this, they will not stop coming...I
haven't felt this wonderfully creative in ages. *_*

*bows* Thank you. And you'd be amazed how many people didn't "get it" with
regards to who Timothy is. And not to spoil any surprises, but he IS a
complete BASTARD in this. ;D

Yeah, I know...I kind of got a little carried away with all that. There's a
lot in this chapter that I need to re-evaluate and maybe tone down, but I
have yet to decide just how much of what will be changed. I think, though, I
was trying to...
*frowns* What WAS I trying to do? I'm thinking pad out the chapter. @_@
Yyyyeah. A little too much emo-Ami, even considering.

It depends on HOW it's frozen. Anything frozen using liquid nitrogen or a
similar agent is going to become incredibly brittle and unable to withstand
a blow of force.
Putting that aside, we're not talking about regular old freezing. We're
talking about a violent magical assault.
Besides, I needed Ami to go all Sub-Zero on Mr. Bastard Rapist for a reason.

Somehow, "Mercury Sparkling Bangle" didn't exactly feel right, you know? :)

Thanks for the comments!
