Author's (very long) Notes:
Okay, I'll be continuing my fic soon but, before that... there're a few things I wanted to explain, and some questions people asked me that need answers...
1.) I re-read this fic, and found that I kind of left certain things un-explained. Like: Rei having been a demon, in a previous existence and the demon's ability, stasis-lock, that heals wounds. The fact that Rei didn't use this ability to heal herself. Answer: The ability doesn't heal the kinds of *internal* injuries that she sustained, and the fact that she thinks of most of her *outward* scars as a testament of her love for Serena. Another: Why didn't Serena notice the scars Rei has on her torso, in the hospital. Answer: I believe I covered this in the same part where Serena noticed the scars (but I want to make sure)... that they're so faded that to see them, you'd have to look -really- close, closer than Serena had looked at her friend before that day.
Some questions people asked:
1.) What? Rei's a demon?... Who? When? How?
Answer: Well, No one ever said the Senshi didn't exist before the Silver Millennium... so, I took the liberty of *creating* a time before the Silver Millennium.
2.) Were Rei and Serena lovers during the Silver Millennium? I thought Princess Serenity and Prince Endymion were in-love then?
Answer: I've only seen the anime and, in it, the Senshi's lives during that time were never explained in detail. I took it unto myself, to add a relationship in that time. And, Serena and Endymion were going to marry but, it was because of obligation and never happened cause of Beryl's attack.
3.) Why are all the Senshi lesbians in this story?
Answer: Easy, They aren't. A lesbian is a woman that only likes other females, regardless. A girl can be in-love with another girl, without being attracted to other females. The only lesbians are: Haruka, Shinya, Makoto, & Chrystya. The others would be bi, cause most of them had relationships with guys.
4.) Do you like the name Serena versus Usagi?
Answer: No. I use Serena and Usagi. The reason I've been using Serena in this fic is because, most authors use either the Japanese *or* American-dub names(meaning: Rei/Usagi or Raye/Serena). I thought it'd be something different, If I used the Japanese name Rei, and the American-dub name Serena.
These and other things will be explained more in-depth, later in the story. So, Just bear with me.
Here's a couple things that I just have to clarify:
1.) I got a review recently, that I deleted, that stated "Rei and Usagi could never be together because that Usagi and Mamoru love each other... blah, blah, blah, yada, yada, yada."
My Response: Someone -PLEASE- correct me if I'm wrong but, I believe I said in the very -first- chapter, (and the summary, for crying out loud) that this is a Rei/Serena SHOUJO-AI fanfic! About *Rei* and Serena (not Mamo-baka and Serena). My exact words in the author's notes of the first chapter were... ""I would like to state before we get started with the story, that this is a **shoujo-ai** fic! And, I advise any fans of Mamo-baka(I hate him), DON'T READ THIS FIC! But, Then again, If you are then, WHY ARE YOU READING A SHOUJO-AI FANFIC!!!!(i.e... Shoujo-ai is Japanese for Love between girls!)!"" I hope that clarifies to any who didn't understand the summary! As for everyone who understood those words the first time, pay no attention to this message.
2.) In another review, A person said something about this fic being pointless smut.
My Response: I DO NOT write smut, I am appalled at that accusation! And, I also don't write anything that's pointless! There IS a point to every one of my fics. Don't judge an entire story, by one or two chapters. I don't mind each chapter being judged individually.
Well, That's what I wanted to discuss. Thanks, and continue with your reviews. I should be back sometime later with the next chapter of my fic. Gotta go.
