Mamoru TXT: i'm fine, usagi's more or less okay, but we'll all be better once this is over. pls talk to neph, ami, and mako for current wedding plan delegation stuff

Mina TXT: Mamoruuuuu! You're so mean making me give you permission to go off smooching some hot evil girl!

Mina TXT: AND THEN YOU DID omg

Mamoru TXT: it's complicated XD

Haruka TXT: I feel like I'm missing context.

Mina TXT: Haruka you know I'm Usagi-chan's body double. I was body doubling and New Moon showed up and then Mamoru was all 'Usagi can I have hot makeouts with the evil girl pls?' and I'm like 'aaah I'm in danger!'

Mamoru TXT: i got kidnapped on purpose. real usagi needs company

Mina TXT: Also I do not want double the kisses I requested

Mina TXT: That would be weird

Mamoru TXT: yes it would

Mamoru TXT: Haruka: chibiusa showed up evil with a new sidekick, and usagi is being hidden by her from demande

Mamoru TXT: evil and like 25

Mina TXT: Because Demande is a creepy stalker perv

Mamoru TXT: i dont think it's about that. he had a lot to say about her in his ranting and i think that him finding her attractive may be the least bad part

Mina TXT: Mamoru. He had a life sized hologram of her. In his bedroom.

Mamoru TXT: either way he's blisteringly insane

Haruka TXT: It's not about who we find attractive but what we do about that feeling

Haruka TXT: lifesize holo is up there on the DO NOT DO list probably

Mamoru TXT: i was there mina

Haruka TXT: michiru says no life size holograms. she may be missing other context.

Mina TXT: That's creepier than Ace following me from Venus and two lifetimes.

Hinoiri TXT: ... You people got some real creepers in your world, don'tcha?

Mamoru TXT: i'm not really here to talk about what he wants to do to usagi it's bad enough i had to hear the hate from him

Hinoiri TXT: Just saying. Purification, therapy, delousing. That doesn't work, fumigation.

Michiru TXT: I think it's more constructive to discuss how we're going to deal with the problem than the problem itself.

Mina TXT: Right sorry. Okay so wedding preparations. I'm hitting up Jadeite for ice flowerd decorations.

Mamoru TXT: mina: also talk to koji about the menu

Hinoiri TXT: Also, uhhhh. I may have mentioned to, errr. Runa that this miiiiiight take place on the moon and uhhhhh... She might have had opinions on that and uhhhhhh... She and Sora might ummmm... Want to send... gifts... Of... non-normal...

Hinoiri TXT: ... I am not yet sure what may or may not happen and I am very very sorry and/or you're welcome depending on how this pans out.

Mina TXT: This better not compromise security or the ability to trap our guests. Two guests in particular.

Hinoiri TXT: I doubt it.

Mamoru TXT: michiru: i'm with them rn, and they're keeping me safe from demande and saphir

Mina TXT: They aren't trying to make you evil are they? Takashi is super worried about your allergy.

Mamoru TXT: hehe i love him. no, no dark energy for me. i'm hanging around out of henshin

Mina TXT: Seriously though. Do you have any idea where Usagi is? How she's doing?

Hinoiri TXT: Just be careful. Dark energy is the creator of poor choices. They might not be making the worst choices yet.... but that might change with time.

Mamoru TXT: usagi is more or less fine. she can give you the whole story when this is done but i'm sworn to secrecy on where she is

Mamoru TXT: i'm trying to mitigate that, hinoiri.

Hinoiri TXT: Good luck. Just... know we're here. Do what you can. And... just... know... sometimes, no matter what you do, you can't stop someone from going all the way down that road. Sometimes, they just need to get clocked really, really, really hard until they finally understand.

Michiru TXT: Personal experience talking?

Mamoru TXT: i know. i can't stop riventon.

Hinoiri TXT: Entirely. During the time loop I talked to that girl like, almost daily. She doesn't remember a lot of it, but I do. She's got a good heart, but there's a lot of hurt there and I was really hoping she wouldn't make my mistakes.

Mamoru TXT: i never want to push, because i hate being pushed, but i keep thinking maybe i should have pushed for more information from chibiusa before we went to the future

Mamoru TXT: maybe i would have known where her breaking points were and been able to shore her up better

Mamoru TXT: but, she walked directly into a trap set for her

Michiru TXT: I suspect your intuition was right anyways. The girl had been through a lot, I'm not sure pushing would have helped. And you've spent a lot of time with her to know that.

Mamoru TXT: thanks. that does make me feel a little better

Michiru TXT: This invasion was very recent for her, while we've been fighting for years now, and we had past memories etched on our souls. And she's so much younger. The trauma would have been greater. I think you did the best thing you could for her - allow her to live free of that world at times, and support her unconditionally.

Hinoiri TXT: More or less... yeah. Sometimes... we just gotta make our own mistakes and have things blow up in our faces. She's gonna need you to hel pstamp out the flames when it's all said and done, though.

Mamoru TXT: still trying to support ... tall ... dottir, yes. notably, though, i will be with them for fights and not participating on either side, so, sorry in advance

Mamoru TXT: HOWEVER, fights that have nothing to do with them, i can fight in just fine

Mamoru TXT: and i will remain textable. and be home sometimes to do laundry and whatever, kiss the boyfriend, you know, the usual

Mamoru TXT: and if anyone needs me for healing, especially if anyone decides to fight new moon or wicked lady directly, i'll also be available for that
