Katsuko enters the shop, careful to keep her jumperskirt, made voluminous by her numerous petticoats, from knocking anything over. A pensive expression marks her face; her brows drawn inwards and pale lips curved into a slight frown. But once she gets to the counter, her features soften and she finally allows herself a smile as she holds out a calligraphy-decorated card to Sunako. On it are two words printed in kanji and Russian. "Thank you. For the birthday present, I mean."

    The bell above the shop door failed to draw Sunako’s attention, her focus trained on the pile of Myrtle Pepper stacked on the counter. She held a small strip of paper on one hand, a jar in the other, scooping the dried berries off of the counter in carefully-counted bundles of fifty. It wasn’t until Katsuko spoke that her attention was pulled away -- face lifted in surprise at the sound of a familiar voice. 

    “Oh!! You didn’t have to travel all the way just to say thank you.” Her hands are wiped on her apron before it is tossed to the side, still dusted with the scent of Mytrle Pepper as she reached for the card. 

    “But since you’re here, how about we read this over a cup of tea?”

“In the darkness of my dark-beating heart, I know. He’d have loved it all right.”

HEADCANON!! Worm

Worm is a one year old Phantom ball python who is both a shop employee and Sunako’s personal pet. While he does have a tank complete with heat lamp, water dish, and plenty of cozy places to curl up, Worm spends most of his time loose around the shop hunting down mice before they get into the stored herbs. At night, he comes home with Sunako, and returns every morning when the shop opens up.

HEADCANON!! The Herb Shop

Sunako is the owner of an herbal healing and tea shop in a quiet area of town. The chashitsu is very old fashioned, complete with shojo (sliding windows and doors made of wood and paper), and tatami mat floors. The rest of the shop is a little more modern, though still rather dated looking due to the floor to ceiling wall of jars and several racks of dried herbs and flowers. 

Once a week, Sunako hosts a ceremony that combines a regular tea ceremony with a few forms of healing, such as aroma therapy, crystal healing, and mediation. Anyone is welcome to attend these events, though Sunako pushes for other senshi to attend as often as possible. 

Outside of the weekly ceremony, Sunako also offers one-on-one healing and meditation sessions. These range anywhere from simple 5 minute cleansing, to in depth meditation sessions. The only charge for these sorts of ceremonies is for patrons to buy their own supplies. 

Other things that can be found in the shop include jars of locally sourced honey, organic candies and snacks, and amulets/satches for various purposes. And of course, there are dozens of different herbal teas offered in the shop both for purchase, and for use in the weekly ceremonies.

HEADCANON!! Awakening

Sunako Ohta was born under the name Seiichi Ohta in the middle of a cool September, 1997. They were raised as a boy, having been born into a male-designated body; however, by the time they turned 16, they had begun to realize something wasn’t right and started their journey of self discovery. Very quickly, they accepted themselves as gay, but remained in the closet until eventually moving out of their family home. Shortly after that, at 19 years old, they finally found the source of their discomfort -- they were transgender. 

Before this realization, Sunako had been witness to many monster attacks -- seeming to be drawn towards them for some reason she couldn’t place. It was like something was speaking to her, whispering in her ear and leading her to the place which the battle would happen. After coming to terms with her gender, she heard the whispering more strongly, and was led once again to the scene of a battle. This time, however, rather than just playing witness, Sunako was directly involved. She awoke as Sailor Aeon at the age of 19, on her own. 

Once she awoke, the truth about her birth as a male returned to her. It had been the product of a rushed reincarnation; she had meant to awaken as soon as possible in her new life, but pushed too quickly and something went wrong. She was born into the wrong body and was unable to access her abilities while living as a male. This prevented her from stopping the Sailor Animates from stealing she Inner Senshi’s crystals as well as the string of deaths that followed, which had been her reason for reincarnating into the time and place that she did. 

By the time she came into her full powers, Sailor Moon had already dealt with the majority of the battle -- but Aeon still had her work cut out for her cleaning up the aftermath of Chaos’ long reign.
