Hi! Name's Saffron, but I go by Saff. Happy I found a wee community to peek into. I feel like I'm joining insanely late into the fandom, despite having been a fan since I was a toddler in the 90s.

My introduction to Sailor Moon was when the DiC version aired on TV for a while and I accidentally ran into a few episodes. In fact, the one were Nephrite meets his end in Naru's arms was the first episode, and I understood nothing besides him having been someone's boyfriend (I was like...4? 5?). I thought for the longest time that Naru was Sailor Jupiter, and that the Senshi had to defeat their boyfriends to get to the main villain. Mind you, I had not watched all the episodes, just parts of an episode here and there, and then never again until I was 12. By then I was living in Brazil and watching the Cartoon Network dub from there (which did not hide the fact that Fish Eye was a dude, and that also left a lasting impression on me).

Long story short, Sailor Moon has always been present in my life, I have loved it since wee, but I never actively participated in the fandom until now (and I have rewatched 3/5 of the classic series, gone to see the Super Live in March and started to RP in a Magical Girl MUSH as Zoisite).

I started to post some stuff on my side tumblr like sketches, and tried my hand on a dark fic that I need to revisit. Now I'm going back to LJ and older communities for fanfics and hidden gems I never got to read. Also have been collecting some doujinshi when I can find any that are specifically Shitennou or Amazon Trio related.

Yes, I have a soft spot for the villains. It's hard for me not to, especially finding out the implied backstory the Senshi had with Endymion's knights (I guess toddler me wasn't that off the mark lol). And that being (in my opinion) confirmed with the PC Engine game. I just love the tragedy of it all.

Okay, gonna go ahead and post two of the drawings I did recently.

( Dark Kingdom Zoisite tormenting Sailor Mercury )

( Kunzite and Zoisite )

I think you guys can guess what ships I have. Honestly I ship everyone with everyone. Hard not to, Sailor Moon seems to lend itself to that.

Anyway, it's good to meet yall, I hope to pop in with thoughts and chatters!
