What is your fav piece(s) of art you made?
I can’t decide between these two. I feel like both sort of encompass my blog well, a bit of a dichotomy. 🤣

i learned of “Box beds” – cabinets with beds in them and, sometimes, lockable doors – were used for privacy and safety in parts of rural medieval Europe before individual bedrooms were common. They became fashionable even in homes with bedrooms and remained in use in Scotland into the 1900s (x)

It's not actually specific to this IP, but I've always wanted to have a hero-with-magical geegaw series where the trope of Inexplicably Charismatic Protagonist Despite Apparent Evidence gets explained BY possession of the thing. On the surface, it sounds like an amazing thing to have, but the dread eventually seeps in as they wonder how much they're actually appealing to people for their own sakes and how much of that is a "trick."
Doc how would you make the Ginzuishou "work" for you? What limitations and/or costs would you apply to it if it was up to you?
A few options!
It actually does fucking kill her to use it. In the dead way. In the actually, permanently, no hijinks way. Dead. You could actually do a lot with this is I think, because then at the end of the day, it's Usagi deciding to die to save her friends and spitting int he face of the Moon Kingdom that decided everyone had to die for her. It's Usagi taking an active role in changing what the story was meant to be, and actually backing her own play on not wanting anyone to die for her. It could make Usagi's love feel like a much BIGGER thing.
I actually really liked the way the first season ended. Usagi chooses to bring everyone back even though she's not supposed to, she's killed Beryl and she's closed the loop. Everyone gets to go back to who they were and how they were. But they lose each other. It never had to happen so it never did. Amazing bittersweet ending.
To build off two, it has to be a one and done deal. I can take resurrection ONCE, at GREAT PERSONAL COST. In my rewrite of the talismans arc, saving Haruka and Michiru is what makes Usagi, princess of the moon, have to BE Sailor Moon. She has to fight now, instead of being protected, because she gave something up in defying her mother. It doesn't have to be that, I don't represent my way is the best or only way to do that, it's just how I massaged it to make a confluence of puzzling decisions work for me. And she can't do it again. There's no power to draw off of without the talismans being pulled, no nothing like that, and so now, if you die, you die.

Akio can’t roofie for shit.
That title is, admittedly, me being extremely glib about the entire thing, BUT BASICALLY THAT’S WHAT’S HAPPENING HERE. 
Tumblr media
We open on the glasses that we saw only moments ago, the ones we know that Akio dropped some drugs into. The show wants to make sure we understand, that Akio believes he’s drugged Anthy. That we’re back at the ~scandalatious~ video, where we left off before Anthy was outed as a potential Akio-murderer.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Akio goes to perform a little light incestual rape, as one does on a full Saturday night, and he seems so different from the Akio of the anime. He’s timid, so slow, even though he’s drugged her. HE HAD TO DRUG HER.  He has no bearing or power, and while I didn’t like the Akio of the anime, he did have something that suggested an equal manipulation with Anthy, that in their hatred of each other and their cruelty, their definition of a toxic relationship, Akio HAD something.
This Akio is so weak that he had to drug Anthy to try and get anything he wanted out of her, and even when he does that, there’s nothing but fear and trepidation as he approaches her.  The retelling of the princess/witch story, earlier in this movie, put forth that the prince was nothing but a creation of the witch in the first place, that he was her puppet, and that seems to go along with what’s happening here.
BECAUSE EVEN WHEN HE MOMENTARILY THOUGHT HE WAS IN CONTROL HE WAS NOT.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I love the implication that this has happened before, that this is something that’s even maybe COMMON for Akio to have done, and that every time he’s done this, he’s believed that he was in control of Anthy, at least in this space and this moment.
But it was never true, and you can hear that dawning horror in his voice. Anthy was only ever pretending to be helpless, and if he took advantage of her, it was only because she allowed it. At her will, she could dominate and overcome whatever weak drugs he had, whatever kind of weak man he was.
This plays really neatly into the ending of the anime for me, where basically the same was true: Akio only “succeeded” in his attempts because Anthy was willing to put up with his garbage, and when she wasn’t anymore, and left, you could hear that same fear in his voice, that same knowledge that he never had control in the first place.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
There are times when I’m watching this movie where all I can say is “Anthy, you’re a wild bitch” even though I want to be more insightful than that. It’s just the first thing that comes out of my mouth, I swear.
The way she says this is so placid, so matter of fact, and it makes it all the more unsettling. She’s been pretending to be asleep, because he is the prince, and she says he can do as he likes, and so he can do as he likes. But why does she let him?
I mean, maybe that’s what Ikuhara’s saying, is, “Hey ladies, why don’t you rise up and overpower men??? They are weak??” But I don’t know that I actually believe that, or at least it’s not, I don’t think, what I’m settling on. I think she’s doing this for a lot of reasons, but I think part of it is that she believes that’s the way it should be. That it’s part and parcel of what it means to be the princess, and what it means to have a prince.
But what really confuses me, a bit, is Akio’s assertion that he’s “not like that.” Not like what? Not like a dude who needs his sister to be knocked out in order to fondle her naked body? IT’S STILL WEIRD WITH HER CONSENT BUT LIKE SOMEWHAT LESS SO MY DUDE. So what is he not like? Not like the prince? Is this his problem with what she’s saying, that he doesn’t want to believe he’s her prince, because of what that might mean? That he IS a puppet after all?

also this is why i think Mako and Rei's arguments can get so heated because they sometimes think about the same thing but in very different ways
TLDR; I see Rei as very cognizant about Roles(tm) in relationships and being adamant about not compromising herself in service of it. Mako strikes me more as someone much more willing to compromise and seeing that as being understanding, but maybe wondering how much is too much before she's just playing up to being something she aint comfortable with
What's your headcanon for Mako's sexuality?
OGMako: Her whole... Thing is wrapped up in a lot of performative femininity/romantic/hetero-structured... something. It kind of depends how far you wanna realistically stretch that (Most versions it's a light tap vs the old show's sledgehammer). But I think that clouds everything else regardless of what she'd be into.
So lemme evade this decent question by saying what she'd aim for, at least initially.
I think because of it Mako would assume guys are 'easier' despite the obvious problems when she interacts with dudes (a dude?) that way, so in a sense i think that's what she would pursue on instinct as a gut response.
PGSMako kind of a distinct character for me and closer to my default preference for the character. This Mako has made a different kind of peace with the Deal (and is less obsessive about boys) and is IMHO would be more willing to play to the field, at least vs her counterpart.
But I think Mako's hangups would simply change a bit, wrt what kind of 'role' she's expected to have as the tall boyish one and whether she resents needing to live up to it, or worrying her partner expects it, etc.
