Hey guys.
So...Long time no see, huh.
Yep. It's me. MoonlightRealGirl (my fingers curled up in a ball of cringe as I typed that god-forsaken username). I am actually posting on this account four and a half years later. I never thought this day would come.
But one day, as I was rummaging through my chest of old belongings, I found an abandoned, cracked first generation iPad mini. I logged in, surprisingly still knowing my six-year-old password. The first app that caught my eye was Notes...So I pressed it, and lo and behold, fourteen chapters of a forgotten Sailor Moon fanfic left my eyes glued to the screen for a whopping 30 minutes.
Not to toot my own horn, but HOLY CRAP THIS STORY WAS AWESOME.
It made me laugh, its gave me butterflies in my stomach, and it LEFT ME WANTING MORE.
Now I understand how y'all have been feeling for the past four or so years.
But that's the thing.
This story hasn't been touched for four years.
I was an eighth grader at the time, frolicking around the town in my own little bubble without a care in the world, and a LOT of freaking time on my hands.
Now I'm eighteen, getting ready for college, and I'm actually working on my own book that I am planning to publish (I'll post a title and preview of it later on, catch me in Barnes and Noble in a few months ? ゚マᄒ).
So, I figured, I kind of...outgrown this story.
I mean, what high school senior has the time to write a fanfic? I have my social life, my education, and my life goals to worry about.
Not that I didn't worry about those things back then, but as I grew up, things just became...Different.
But lately, I've found my mind trickling back to this story every once in a while.
All of the plot points that have been built up with these thirteen chapters...What this story, despite it being based off of an anime, could've been.
GAH. IT'S BEEN GNAWING AT MY BRAIN EVER SINCE.
Yes, I have a lot of unfinished work in the catacombs of my ancient iPad that, in my opinion, were truly never meant to surface the Internet, but this one...
...There's just something about this story that makes me really freakin tempted to finish it.
I mean, the entire story, from beginning to end, is pretty much ingrained in my brain, so it's not impossible...
If I had the time.
But, as I've mentioned, I am a high school senior, so if I were to even attempt to complete it...I don't know if it'll even be that much of a possibility at this point.
But just now, I looked at the view statistics.
To this day, in the year of 2020, people are still reading this shit.
That has to mean something, right?
So...Here's what I'm gonna do.
None of my family or friends know I'm doing this, because I'm keeping it on the down low to prevent any...Ahem...Judgement.
But I'm going to try to finish this story.
On my old iPad, I have an unfinished 14th chapter.
When the new Sailor Moon Dead Moon arc movie is released (which I think may be in the summer?), I'm going to finish and post that chapter.
Mind you that I am completing this work four years later than when I started, so of course my writing is going to be different.
But hey, maybe this can serve as some sort of a project to see how much I've developed as a writer. You guys can come along for the ride too, I guess.
But yes, when the new movie is out, I will post the next chapter. That way, I'll be in the midst of Sailor Moon hype, and not just wasting my time posting a chapter when nobody cares anymore.
If I get good (and enough) reception...I'll try to finish the entire thing.
If not...Imma have to say my final goodbyes to this work of art :,(
But, if y'all are on board, and you leave comments, reviews, follows, favs-anything to boost its popularity, I'll be more inclined to proceed with this mission, so as readers, you have a part to play as well. This story never really was all that popular, but I still had a good amount of reception in both and WattPad. But in order to really go through with this, I'm gonna need some support, so help me out ? ゚マᄒ
This was actually a pretty hard decision to make considering how damn busy and jam packed my life is now, but...
I'm willing to finish what I started.
So stay tuned y'all. Hearts on Stars Chapter 14 is coming ;)
