              “ Ah, Queen Serenity! It was not my intention to disturb you. “

    Though the garden was always a lovely place, many of the senshi spend a few moments out in the lush greens and vibrant hues it has to offer, hence why she assumed she’d find Jupiter tending to the flowers. Though, it seems she is no where in sight – just what she needed.

    “ Forgive me, I was simply looking for Jupiter. Have you seen her? I’m afraid Venus needs us for something. “

Although the Moon Kingdom was filled with artificial nature and winds, the queen had often found herself enjoying the Moon Palace's gardens during her free time. The gardens were in the queen's perspective, one of the many luxuries of the Moon Kingdom that other worlds within the Solar System besides Earth were unable to obtain.

Gently, the queen had moved to touch one of the flowers with her fingertip, but before she could do so she became aware of Mars's presence and redirected her gaze to the Martian. Her last remarks piqued the queen's interest.

"You needn't worry, Mars. Unfortunately I haven't seen Jupiter here recently… Did something happen?"

[kazenoheishi-a]

        After a long race and spending time signing autographs and taking pictures, Haruka had a moment to herself to retreat back into her trailer for a quick shower and change of clothes. Most did not know how unbearably hot the inside of a car could get, especially since A/C systems were too heavy to make the vehicle run as fast as possible. A cool shower was welcome and able to calm down her fast-paced mind to reconnect with her element. The wind had changed direction before the race began and, while not a bad omen, led Haruka to believe something ( or someone ) would be arriving for her.

        Hearing the door to her trailer being answered struck her as odd, especially when Kameda-san, her crew chief, tried to find the right way to let the apparent woman down easy in learning that not just anyone could see Tenoh-san unannounced. Haruka appeared then, grabbing him by the shoulders and laughing.

                ❝ Oi, don’t worry so much! It’s completely fine.                          Besides, this person is pretty special. ❞

        Kameda lightened up immediately and excused himself, stepping out of the trailer and allowing Mizuki and Haruka to have some time alone. Haruka smiled and inclined her head before stepping back and gesturing with her arm.

                ❝ Sorry about that. Kameda-san can be a                          little over protective of me. Please come in. ❞

[regal-serenitatis-blog1]

The reaction she received from Kameda was to be expected. Mizuki knew that it was only protocol; she could only imagine the amount of trouble received from the media or from crazed fans after a race, and if she was on the other end of the situation, she would probably be relieved for the tight security. It was also her fault for coming unannounced.

But before Mizuki could speak, Haruka appeared at the door intervening in the situation. It seemed that despite her feeble attempt to conceal herself, she was easy to recognize and a faint giggle escaped her lips. Stepping aside so that Kameda could depart, Mizuki would remove her hat and sunglasses as they were no longer necessary.

"Special, Tenoh-san?" Mizuki gazed upwards towards her, giving her a look as she stepped into the trailer. "It's also alright, he had your wellbeing in mind which is very kind of him. How are you, by the way? Watching you out there was remarkable."

[flaviarose]

Great, more awkward questions that she needed to figure out the best and easy way to answer them in a way that wouldn’t seem sketchy. Innocent crimson hues remained locked with the others as a small period of silence occurred before she chose to reply. “…I was. Just taking a walk to clear my head.” That was really the best thing she had for her, well until another idea popped into her head that would finish her response off. - Perhaps that would help stir the conversation a little better? “U-um! B-by any chance you haven’t seen a small kitten with a crescent moon bald spot on her head around have you?”

[regal-serenitatis-blog1]

"A crescent moon bald spot?" Mizuki hadn't expected for Chibiusa to mention such a unique feature for a kitten to have, but it did explain why Chibiusa was wandering by herself. If the kitten was lost, the unique marking made it that much easier to find it. She was aware of two cats that had such a unique marking, was it possible that there was a relation? Luna and Artemis would have mentioned such a thing, wouldn't they? It was also possible for it to have simply slipped her mind.

"I'm afraid I haven't seen a kitten with that marking, but if you need help looking for it I'm willing to lend a hand. I'm familiar with the marking.” She insisted, a soft smile forming on her lips.

     The brightly colored soldier walks through the marble halls of the Moon Palace. Her head is held high although she makes a smile and nods in acknowledgement to courtesans, handmaidens and other staff belonging to the royal family. What none were aware of though are the nerves bubbling and gnawing at her stomach–something had piqued the interest of the queen (or perhaps something had angered her) enough to call for a meeting. 

      As Venus lays her hands on the handles of the doors she takes a deep breath and prays to the stars Serenity wasn’t about to cast her off on an asteroid. Upon entering she announces herself and kneels. 

      “You’ve summoned me, your majesty?”

[regal-serenitatis-blog1]

Queen Serenity had been within her office sitting at her desk, reviewing official documents when Venus had entered the room. To the queen, this had become one of her more enjoyable tasks as of late—it also granted her a brief moment of respite from the daily meetings that she had recently attended. Setting a document that she had been reading aside in order to grant Venus her full attention, she lifted her gaze and redirected it to the Venusian.

"Yes, thank you for coming, Venus." Serenity greeted calmly. She wasn't furious with any of the Inner Senshi; it was their duty to retrieve her daughter when her desires to go to Earth overcame her. If it wasn't for her daughter, she doubted that the Inner Senshi would have visited Earth by their lonesome. It did however become a natural concern to the queen for everyone's safety.

"It's come to my attention that each of you seem to be making frequent trips to Earth. What do you intend on doing to stop this?”

[galaxychorded-deactivated201608]

          ☆🌟▐ : There was a momentary pause as Serenity tried to come up with a suitable excuse to explain her rather unusual behavior. The mere idea of lying to her mother didn’t sit well with Serenity, but the look of parental concern and the lecture that would follow if the queen knew of her true objective wasn’t exactly ideal either. ❝ I… was practicing a new type of dance that Minako was kind enough to show me. I fear I’m quite terrible at it right now, so I thought it would best to do it privately until I felt confident enough to be seen. ❞ 

      It wasn’t a total fabrication – the Princess of Venus had begun to show Serenity one of the dance styles they’d enjoyed on her own planet just the other night. It was also true that the Lunarian had experienced difficulty with some of the more sharp movements as they differed heavily from the fluid and graceful dances they enjoyed on the Moon. She stepped back from her mother and walked over to the table, pulling a chair out and motioning for her to sit. ❝ About this trip – I don’t remember you mentioning it before. Is it another meeting with the council? ❞ 

[regal-serenitatis-blog1]

"I see…so Venus showed you a new dance?" Serenity hadn't expected for Princess Serenity to show that much interest in a Venusian dance enough to practice right after sunrise. There were some still slumbering within the palace, but the queen was pleased and hoped that this was a potential outlet for the princess to have. It was expected of the royal family to know various dance styles throughout the Solar System and briefly, Serenity wondered if scheduling more dance lessons for her would keep her busy and entertained when she wasn't tending to academics.

When Princess Serenity pulled out a chair for her to sit, the queen motioned to do so and pondered how to answer her question. She was meeting with the council among others, but the queen hadn't been too willing to discuss those matters with her daughter. She wasn't sure if the rumors about disturbances within the Earth were something she should concern herself with just yet. But then perhaps it was? If her daughter was making frequent trips to Earth as her court claimed, then maybe it was enough to make her reconsider those visits. As Serenity silently contemplated on the matter, she decided to not inform her for now—it would be something to discuss in the meeting.

"I am, and I'll be gone most of the day in fact.  These meetings wouldn't interest you Serenity, perhaps that's why I forgot to tell you? What is your schedule like today? Would you like me to talk with Venus to see if she can give you more lessons?"

What was she to say? She wasn’t lost, not at all. But she couldn’t take her eyes away from the woman who was now gazing at her from Chibiusa’s level. Her soft gentle like features, her eyes, them eyes, THE HAIR. The royal hairstyle dated back from generations, SHE resembled so much of her… Of her mother. N-no. No way. “…Chibiusa miss. U–uh. No, I’m not lost… ”

[regal-serenitatis-blog1]

Chibiusa?

That was a cute name; strange, but cute. She still wondered what it was that made her so timid. She said that she wasn't lost, but perhaps she was lying? She acknowledged the fact that she maybe just wanted to chat, but it was an unusual way to start a conversation with a stranger.

Mizuki wasn't too sure whether or not she could trust her especially when she was by her lonesome. For a brief moment, she averted her gaze to double-check and scan the area to ensure that there wasn't anyone who might be looking for her before returning her attention to Chibiusa. Realizing that she hadn't introduced herself yet, Mizuki attempted to ease the situation.

"My name's Mizuki," she finally introduced herself. "So Chibiusa-chan is it? What are you doing out by yourself? It's getting pretty late, you know."

@kazenoheishi

The race had been over for some time now and it was a memorable experience for Mizuki as she hadn’t ever attended a race prior to this. She had decided to attend by her lonesome and without anyone the wiser, her silver eyes shielded by sunglasses and a hat covered her odangos for additional protection from the sun's rays.

Mizuki had avoided the autograph line and decided to wait patiently by the food stands for most to depart before she began to approach the trailer of Tenoh Haruka. As an acquaintance of the racer, Mizuki had felt that it was more polite to allow the fans to receive their autographs. Fortunately, most had already left the grounds, returning to their vehicles to make their way back home or to any other destination they had planned after the races.

Once she arrived at the trailer a gentle knock could be heard against the trailer. "I apologies for the intrusion, but is Tenoh-san still here?"

[regal-serenitatis-blog1]

"Why.... Do you look so familiar? I---I mean. You're very pretty!"

Mizuki was surprised by the little girl’s comment especially when she attempted to change theconversation, she couldn’t quite recall seeing her before.

“You’re very cute yourself, little one. Maybe I remindyou of someone?” She inquired with a soft gaze, bending down to reach herheight. “What’s your name? Are you lost?”

Serenity:

     ☆🌟▐ :   The princess jumped a little at the sound of her mother’s voice. She’d woken up earlier than usual, hoping to make her way to the Lunarian Teleporter without catching the attention of her guardians. Of course she hadn’t factored her mother into the equation – a mistake to be sure. It seemed her rendezvous with a certain dark-haired prince would be delayed. How disappointing!

      Sighing inwardly, Serenity skirted her way around the pillar she’d been hiding behind. She lifted her head and offered her mother a welcoming smile. Once the space between them was minimal, she reached out to embrace the Queen, hugging her briefly before stepping back.  ❝ I did not expect to see you awake quite so early, Mother. Is something wrong–? ❞

When her daughter expressed surprise to see her and attempted to hide behind a pillar, the Queen became puzzled and suspicious. It wasn't normal behavior expected of somebody who was just passing through, indicating that she was up to something and that was what worried the Queen. She was already aware of her ventures to Earth after being informed of them by Venus and she hoped that this wasn't related.

"No, not quite, did I forget to inform you that I was traveling today?" Serenity inquired with a soft gaze, returning her daughter's embrace. She had intended to inform her of her travels yesterday, but with all of her meetings lately it was possible that she had forgotten.

"Were you able to rest well? Why were you hiding?"

[regal-serenitatis-blog1]

@galaxychord

Morning had arrived for the Moon Kingdom denizens and Queen Serenity had been awake for at least an hour. Just the night before, she had retired to her bedchambers prematurely with the intent to be well-rested for today's travels throughout the Inner Planets to attend various meetings. Unfortunately, that meant she wasn't sure when she would return that evening (if at all) and she had no current plans to bring Serenity with her.

Departing her bedchambers, the queen would begin to walk the halls of the Moon Palace and head towards the dining room for breakfast. It was when she saw a familiar figure resembling that of her daughter's that took her by surprise.

"Is that you, Serenity?"

[regal-serenitatis-blog1]

Venus:

“Your Majesty…” Venus gasped quietly, bending her body in a respectful bow to the queen of their solar system. It was an honor to be invited to the Moon palace, but also strange as live in the kingdom of Venus was a lot more relaxed. Perhaps it was because she was so used to life on Venus, but soon, she would spend the rest of her life here to watch over the next queen of the Moon. Venus offered a soft smile before she turned her gaze from those serious silver eyes. The queen often terrified the princess, or perhaps intimidated would be a better word to use. She was the first of the inner senshi to appear, but that was to be expected when she was told of her role. “I came to admire the blue orb.” She admitted, her head looking up to the wonderful sight in the sky. The Earth was beautiful, she could understand why Princess Serenity was so infatuated. “Don’t you think so, your majesty?”

"I'm sorry if I startled you." Serenity would gaze softly towards Venus, a smile formed on her lips when she greeted her with a bow. It was her question that left her a little perplexed.

The planet Earth was always a place of admiration even to the queen. She hadn't ever stepped foot on the planet herself—God's Law forbade Lunarians from interacting with Earthlings, and as queen she had to set an example—but she believed that it was a secret admiration that every Lunarian had. She couldn't blame them; there was no planet in the Solar System like Earth with its greenery and qualities, and she doubted few Solar System denizens traveled beyond the Outer Regions to explore other worlds. But each planet was unique and admirable in its own way.

"It certainly is something to admire," Serenity confessed, turning to face the Earth for a brief moment before redirecting her attention to the Venusian princess. It was one of the few moments Serenity had recently to interact with Venus casually—perhaps it was a good moment to check on her wellbeing?

"How are you settling in here?"
