Interview with an Author!

Moshi: Konnichi wa! Atashi Takanera Moshi! Today, I'm interviewing author of Project: Sailor Earth and the Utopian Chronicles, Tory Brown!

Senshi: [clapping and applauding]

Tory: Hello! It's great to be here! ^ ^;;

Moshi: Hello, Tory. I'm sure our audience is ready to listen to your answers to some burning questions!

Tory: **sweatdrop** Burning questions? This *is* just an interview? [looks at Rei]

Moshi: Sure, sure!

Rei: [super innocent expression]

Tory: Uh, okay.

Moshi: Great! Let's get started! First question, which was submitted by Tsukino Usagi.

Usagi: [jumps up] That's me, that's me!

Rei: Baka Usagi! Sit down!

Moshi: [sighs] What inspired you to write PSE and TUC?

Tory: Well, A long time ago when Sailor Moon was first introduced into the US, I thought that there simply had to be more to the story. I had even imagined Scouts--

Senshi: [groaning]

Tory: Okay, Senshi!

Senshi: [clapping]

Tory: Senshi of other planets. I must admit, they turned out a bit different than I imagined. Somehow, I envisioned Saturn throwing rings like chakrams.

Minako: Hotaru, Senshi Princess!? [starts laughing]

Tory: Anyway, I got up enough cash to purchase the fansubs of the three movies, R, S, and SS. I was completely entranced by the Japanese version that I thought hey there isn't a Sailor Earth.

Mamoru: [coughs]

Tory: Let me finish! However, I had learned later that Mamoru-sama...

Mamoru: [beams a smile at Tory]

Usagi: [sighs]

Tory: ^.^ I learned that he was the royalty of Earth. Therefore, I had to rethink my fanfiction. How could I make an Earth Senshi that wasn't a Senshi?

Moshi: How did you come to the results?

Tory: *A LOT* of research!

Ami: I'm proud!

Minako & Usagi: [groaning]

Tory: The first thing to go out the window was the wimpy Earth-like attacks. I was sick of Earth Dirt Attacks and Earth Soil Beatdown and stuff like that.

Senshi: [giggling]

Tory: I took a different stance. The Earth has life and life can be a force and energy. That's how Life Force was born. The second thing out the window was the traditional symbols. Since Moshi (you) aren't a real Senshi (by BSSM standards) you don't have to have the traditional Earth symbol!

Mamoru: Which is mine.

Makoto: Be quiet!

Tory: The infinity symbol was born from the idea that everything lives, create new life and then dies, creating a pattern: Infinity.

Senshi: Oooohhh.

Moshi: So you're saying my powers were created before me?!

Tory: Exactly!

Moshi: Kowai...

Tory: The powers went through many stages of editing. At first, you had an Electrical whip!

Senshi: o.O;;

Moshi: o.O;;

Tory: Then I had to rethink that. Too many people would take it to the hentai side.

Senshi: (*^_^*) <--blushing

Tory: I picked black hair because Mamoru has black hair. In addition, I picked purple for eyes because it's a few shades darker than blue. Notice the resemblance!

[Moshi and Mamoru look at each other]

Usagi: EEP!

Tory: I picked odangos because it would be a secret hint to her history!

Moshi: So my history was already planned out?

Tory: Okay, so I lied a bit. I made everything up as I went along.

Moshi: o.O;; How?!

Tory: I dunno!? I just did it! I wanted you to be *much* different than the rest of the Sailor Earths out there. So far, I think I'm doing a darn good job!

Moshi: Okay, second question! Tomoe Hotaru submitted this question. Why purple?

Tory: [looks at Hotaru] You would pick that question!

Hotaru: [innocent smile]

Tory: Well, in the beginning, I didn't know Outer Senshi even existed.

Outer Senshi: [gasping]

Tory: I wanted a color different from her tan fuku that would show her power up. Plus, purple and yellow is my favorite color mixture.

Moshi: So would you say that this is self-insertion?

Tory: Heck no! We're nothing alike!

Moshi: Hmm, true.

Tory: We have different signs, birthdays... heck our blood types are different! I'm O! You're A!

Ami: Hey! I'm an A

Mamoru: So am I!

Tory: Be happy it's purple/yellow. At first, it was going to be purple/green THEN purple/yellow!

Moshi: YECK! Okay, third question. Everyone asked this one!

Tory: What!? **sweatdrop**

Senshi: [innocent expressions]

Moshi: Am I really related to Erika from The Starlight Senshi.

Tory: Uh, Mo-chan?

Moshi: Hai?

Tory: You're Japanese. She's German!

Moshi: Yeah, and?

Tory: SO YOU'RE NOT RELATED! I swear, ever since I did that crossover some people are asking if you two are related. You heard it here folks, Moshi and Erika ARE NOT related!

Moshi: Here's my question. What are my plans for the future?

Tory: Oh no, you're not getting it out of me.

Senshi: Darn!

Moshi: Well, I tried!

Tory: But I will say that Chibimo (Shi) is the future Tuxedo Kamen. She has a cool yellow tuxedo. She takes after her Uncle.

Senshi: Awwww. Mamoru-oji!

Mamoru: [turns red]

Tory: Miko takes after you. She's the future Sailor Earth. Same powers, but at a higher level. And you, well... you're just the knight.

Moshi: And Hoshi?

Tory: I'm not talking, kid. Good try though.

Moshi: *BLEEP*

Mamoru: Midget...

Moshi: Whoops, it seems I've set off the censors!

Tory: When do you don't do that?

Haruka: Never!

Michiru: Haruka! Hush!

Moshi: No comments from the peanut gallery! [chucks a card at Haruka]

Tory: Any more questions?

Moshi: What's your future plans for PSE, TUC?

Tory: Well, I plan on finishing your history, revamp the PSE files, and hopefully write more of TUC!

Minako: Mo-chan! Remember the bet?

Moshi: Oh yeah!

Tory: Bet? **sweatdrops**

Moshi: Okay, Tory. Final question here. What do you think of Sailor Riven's review?

Tory: [gets big demon sized anime head] WHAT I THINK ABOUT THAT REVIEW? *BLEEP* *BLEEP* STUPID PIECE OF *BLEEP* I'VE NEVER HEARD SUCH RETARDED CRAP IN ALL MY LIFE! *BLEEP* *BLEEP* AND IF I EVEN HEAR SO MUCH AS A PEEP ABOUT THAT *BLEEP* I'LL SHOVE A LEAD PIPE UP YOUR *BLEEP*

[Tory jumps from her chair and tosses it across the stage]

Moshi: You owe me lunch, Minako-chan.

Minako: Drat!

Setsuna: What did you two bet on?

Minako: That we could make Tory fly into a rage!

Haruka: Well that certainly did the trick.

Makoto: Actually that was a bit too easy!

Rei: Oh no. Everyone look for your wands!

[Senshi start digging in pockets.]

Hotaru: Mine's gone!

Mamoru: RUN FOR IT!

Tory: SATURN CRYSTAL POWER, MAKE UP!

Usagi: EEEEP!

Sailorsaturn: DEATH...

Setsuna: NO! NOT THAT!

Sailorsaturn: RIBBON...

Rei: AHHHHH!

Sailorsaturn: REVOLUTION!

Moshi: Oh *BLEEP*
