Hello!

[ex_fathomless325]

Found this community from the the most recent post showing up in "Latest Things" as I was browsing around hoping to make connections.

We are Unami and everyone in this small system has some degree of fondness for Sailormoon.

I, Celes, used to run the second largest Sailormoon club on Yahoo! Groups under the moniker Sailor Earth, but that was years and years and years and years ago so I doubt anyone here was involved or remembers it. We ran a pretty wicked RPG for a while. I enjoyed it, at least. XD Though, like I said, that was years ago and our standards have changed quite a bit. Might not have been nearly as "wicked" as I remember. lol

Anyway, fan from way back. Not active in the community now or anything, but I'll always have a soft spot for my first anime/manga love. It's nice to see there is still a somewhat active fanbase after all these years. ^_^

Oh man, another Sailor Earth! XD I used to run around the internets as Sailor Earth as well, and had a pretty big Yahoo Group back in the early '00s called Fan Senshi Unite. I thought it was pretty big, anyway, aheheh.

[ex_fathomless325]

XD And as "Sailor Earths" we all thought we were being so clever and unique too! LOL

It must be a "Sailor Earth" thing to run a large fan group. Mine was started, I believe, in '98 and still running in '00, if I remember my own history at all... which is sometimes questionable. XD I actually seem to remember the "Fan Senshi Unite" group because I usually kept tabs on all the other big groups, but I could just be projecting that back into my past from the present. >_<;

Oh to be young and geeky again! XD

Ah man, I wasn't even really on the internet back in '98, due to an overprotective mother. (I'd been in the fandom for a year back then, and was such a rabid fangirl, haha)

And at one point we had quite a few members - can't remember exactly, but I know the group was really busy. I felt so popular, haha. Now all I do is run this community, and it's been so sleepy lately it's sad. ;_;

For some reason our family was on the internet really early. I think it was because my Dad was in love with gadgets and the internet was the newest one. XD

I was pretty rabid, too, back in the day. It was so much fun though. ^^;

I'm sure this place will pick up. I have high hopes for 3 weeks for DW bringing in new faces and livening things up a bit. Besides, as LJ continues to slide downhill more and more, people are bound to realize the awesomeness that is DW and make it their home. It won't be sleepy forever. ^_^

Oh man, it was fun being a rabid fan. I still have my moments, too - I've still got my SM collection on display in my room, and I've got two SM tattoos. XD

Hey, do you mind if I add you as a friend? Us old-school Sailor Moon fans have to stick together! :)

[ex_fathomless325]

I don't mind at all. I agree, we do!! :)

I used to write Otaku Senshi fanfic back in middle school and beginning of high school. Still fond of the characters I created, but I don't write them anymore. I'm still writing fanfiction though and while I don't write much in the way of Sailor Moon fic, I have written a Kunzite/Zoisite piece recently.

I noticed you identify as plural - I identify plural as well, but I'm some bizarre mix between median and multiple, hence why I will refer to us in a singular fashion sometimes. :)

[ex_fathomless325]

I was a little afraid to post here outing myself right away as plural. I'm glad that I'm not alone. We are a bit of a strange mix, as well. I know that some might want to label us more toward median, but that doesn't really fit the way we work inside our own mind, so we try not to stick too closely to any labels at all. It's hard though when people always want to pin them on you!

I had a couple of original characters from the Sailormoon universe that I was quite in love with from the rpg we ran with the club. Sailor Midnight and her little imp minion Itai will always hold a place in my heart even if they never see action in another story every again. :)

Also: Much love to Kunzite/Zoisite... I'd love to read your fic! :)

[birgitriddle]

It's more plural friendly here I think. I'm sorta afraid of doing it myself, but whatever, I have friends who will stand by my side.

Oh and my Kunzite/Zoisite fic is here: http://night-ink.dreamwidth.org/3816.html
