Disclaimer: I don't own Sailor Moon
An: Well, I have a few more already written, so for a few more days I'll be updating each day. After that, I'll try to continue in that mode, but I won't promise anything.
Also, most of my drabbles are either angst completely, or they border on angst. And they don't end happily, because I have some morbid fascination with not getting Usagi and Mamoru their happy endings. There will be, of course, sweet and waffy ones, so don't worry too much.

2. - - Masks
Usagi is a cry-baby, everybody knows that.
Sometimes that would be a mask she used to hide her other feelings - it was easier to transfer it all to a reason-less crying. Everybody does that, right?
Usagi has a good, pure and an honest heart - everybody knows that too.
She loves animals, she loves the clear sky and the clouds in which she can see various objects, she loves sun more than she does the rain and she loves the smell of ice-cream. She loves her friends, her family and she is careful to not do wrong to anybody. The mask she would use is the one where she would be forced to do something against her own beliefs, doing the move that wasn't right.
Usagi can run up to 100kmh per hour - and that is the fact the whole town knows.
Behind her she leaves only dust, strange words and sighs. The mask hides that she doesn't think highly about school because she isn't sure about finishing it.
Usagi is almost always late for school, she sleeps too much and too little, eats too much and too little, her wails can tear someone's ears off - these are all the facts everybody knows about Usagi.
Masks - for hiding from reality, for the sleepless nights, for her losses of appetite and for the silence she's wishing for and never gets to have.
Usagi isn't good in school, she can't bear if someone is mocking her, she can't bear if the strong go against the weak... And she's ready to do about anything to stop that - everybody knows that.
Mask that one day she will do something more that just running late for classes, a mask that not every remark to her hair, clumsiness or other things does hurt and that she can very easily throw it away. And the mask that she is too weak to do things by herself on occasions.
Usagi is Sailor Moon - only a couple of people knows that fact.
It's a mask she uses to hide from the entire world and it's curious eyes which for certain wouldn't accept the fact that small, plain and ordinary Usagi is saving the world every night.
All those masks used to fool others.
Usagi is in love with Mamoru - that is the fact only she knows.
And that is the mask she's using to fool only herself and nobody else.
