Heh. Nah, I've seen very youma-like treatments of Luna before. There's one
fanfic out there where Luna is very, very bitchy, and "motivates" Usagi by
threatening to claw open her guts, rip out her liver, and wear it as a hat.
@_@

That was kind of the point. :)

I've been trying for years. The problem is, the ONLY thing I can write well
is fanfiction. ;_; Every original idea I've ever had, I couldn't get past
one chapter of before I gave up on it as a bad job.

Well, she can keep herself enrolled in school and living in an apartment on
her own despite being 14...

Actually, I *had* planned to go somewhere else with that scene, but decided
to just leave it the way it was.

I will say nothing at this time. ^_^

*bows* Glad you're enjoying it. :) Chapter seven may be a bit in coming

catch up on some reading/other stuff. But it's...well, give it a week at the
outside.
