The Tsukino's minus Serena were living in Toyama, a gift from Sailor Pluto's mother, getting them all set up. Serena already was, and she got Mars, Raye, set up as well, at a Shinto shrine, where Raye could learn more about her craft as a priestess. Serena is currently watching her DVD and screams out encouragement for Aphrodite. She was so enjoying this fight. Her mother so deserved everything Aphrodite did to her and so much more. Ryo shakes his head at his lover's antics, though seeing as how he remembered her mother from the Silver Millennium he couldn't really blame her.

" Rena, it's supper time. " Ryo says.

Serena sighs at this, " I don't wanna leave my entertainment. "

" You can come back to it after you eat. " Ryo says sternly and Serena heads into the kitchen and sits at the table, ready to do battle with Kento for food.

As Serena and Kento battle it out for food the others guard their plates and portions. They were well used to this, as Serena had been living with them since she had first appeared in this dimension, though none of them had expected her and Ryo to bond as fast as they had, and now she was his entirely, except in marriage, though it wouldn't take them long for that.

Before he had left Kenji had, had an exceptionally long talk with Ryo, and the Wildfire bearer was still shaking from that encounter. He had faced down Talpa and several others without flinching and yet Serena's father terrified him on so many levels that it wasn't even funny. Same with Serena, but then again she always had, even during the Silver Millennium. Though she scared him in different ways.

" So, Ryo, what did your father-in-law want? " Sage asks him.

Ryo flips him off, " Just telling me to not hurt his little girl, to never touch her, which is already moot so it doesn't matter. "

Serena groans, " Honestly, does he expect me to remain chaste my entire life? No way in hell that would ever happen. "

" No chance in hell, you're mine and he's just going to have to accept that his little girl has grown up. " Ryo says.

Just let me tell mama about Lunarian physiology and everything else, and then she can tell papa, unless you want him coming after you with a shot gun?

Good point, yeah, we'll let your mother tell him he's going to be a grandfather, of course, I have yet to tell the guys.

Give Rowen enough time and he'll put it together, he's good at that sort of thing, always has been.

True, you have been gone for two months, and then there's the fact that since we've been separated for so long they're all expecting us to be joined at the hip for a while anyhow. So that may throw Rowen off for a little bit.

You're forgetting he's the Warrior of Life, if he gets close enough to me he'll know, probably the same with Sage actually.

Rowen groans as he looks at them, " Are you two done now? "

" Shut it, blue-boy. " Serena retorts.

" Make me, princess. " Rowen fires back.

" Oh, I will, I have one of my scouts around now and can call upon her powers. You oughta see what I can do with the Firestorm Flash of hers. " Serena shoots back.

" Ya won't, ya like me too much, princess. " Rowen decides.

Her eyes flash with mischief and Rowen gulps, suddenly very fearful for everyone one of his possessions and his pride, " I have other ways of dealing with you, Rowen, and it won't be pleasant, at least not for you, me, however, I will enjoy it immensely. " Serena states, her face entirely serene.

Rowen pushes his chair away from the table, entirely ready to head for the hills as fast as his legs could carry him. Ryo smirks, Rowen knew exactly how devious Serena could be and did not want her brand of mischief directed at him, ever. " I will listen to your Three Lights CD's for the next month with you. " Rowen offers quickly.

" Two, and I let you off, blue-boy. " Serena states.

" Deal. " Rowen accepts quickly.

Sage grins, " Close call there, Ro. "

" Oh, shove it, Seiji. " Rowen retorts.

" Touma-chan, leave him alone or I recant. " Serena says firmly.

Rowen disappears into his room rather than risk the wrath of Serena. Sage sighs, " Thanks, Serena. "

" Oh, I need you to go get Raye and bring her here tomorrow, or I decide to let Rowen torment you. " Serena says.

" Knew there had to be a catch, why me? " Sage asks.

" Because you two have so much in common, both shunned for being different, Raye can scry with fire and she also gets visions at other times, she can sense danger like you as well, you both like meditation, I thought some conversation with someone who isn't one of the guys, me, Mia, Kayura, or family would do you some good. " Serena says.

" You're setting us up? " Sage asks.

" Trust me, if you can handle Ryo you can handle Raye. " Serena says.

Ryo looks at her, " Oh, so what does that mean? "

" That you're very difficult to handle sometimes, very volatile, much like Raye, you two could be siblings, honestly. " Serena says.

Ryo gives her his leader look and Serena just shakes her head at this, " I am not one of your subordinates, Wildfire. I am Sailor Moon, leader of my Sailor Scouts, which is admittedly just Mars at the moment, but I am still a leader, not a follower, got it, so don't you try and cow me with that look or certain privileges get suspended until further notice. " Serena says.

The other three watch as Ryo winces at this. " All right, and technically, though I am loathe to admit to this, you are technically above me, and therefore can tell me what to do, and like I said, I don't like admitting to this. "

Serena smiles, " You're learning how to pick your battles, good, because I am the dominant one, got it, Wildfire? "

Ryo grimaces at this, " Got it, Rena. "

Serena goes back to her DVD and Ryo groans, " I love her, I do, but there are times I could cheerfully throttle her. "
