the sailor guardians take discord

Summary:

The Sailor Guardians take to their discord to bitch about their uniforms and other issues. Rei wants boots, Minako wants royalties for that Sailor V video game, Usagi wants to fit Luna for a backpack... the list goes on.

# sailor senshi -- off-topic

rei (9:17 PM)
okay, so who came up with our costumes? I want to lodge a complaint against them

ami (9:17 PM)
why?

rei (9:19 PM)
they really fucked me over

rei (9:20 PM)
I'm still nursing a twisted ankle because they gave me fucking stilettos

rei (9:21 PM)
and you guys all got boots

mina (9:22 PM)
I don't get boots

rei (9:23 PM)
you get a thicker heel and a strap to keep them on

rei (9:24 PM)
I'd trade you that in a hot second

makoto (9:24 PM)
at least your colors go together

makoto (9:25 PM)
yeah, they gave you bad shoes, but they gave you the best color coordination

makoto (9:26 PM)
purple and red look cool

makoto (9:27 PM)
I'm here with pink and green, who thought that was a good idea?

usagi (9:27 PM)
at least you get an outfit change

usagi (9:27 PM)
mine is basically my school uniform with a slightly shorter skirt and some little ornaments in my hair

usagi (9:27 PM)
what a letdown

mina (9:27 PM)
tbh I just enjoy having a proper uniform and no mask

mina (9:28 PM)
I don't know how tuxedo mask does it, I was losing my mind by the end there

makoto (9:29 PM)
you were famous when you were wearing a mask

makoto (9:30 PM)
you had video games made about you

makoto (9:30 PM)
my sympathy is limited

mina (9:32 PM)
video games I never got any royalties for

mina (9:32 PM)
I could use that money

ami (9:33 PM)
that's actually a really good point, mina

ami (9:33 PM)
they're exploiting your not being able to come forward and give up your identity to make money

ami (9:33 PM)
someone should really address those loopholes

mina (9:34 PM)
that's what I'm saying

rei (9:35 PM)
want me to put a curse on them?

usagi (9:36 PM)
yes

luna (9:38 PM)
no curses on people

mina (9:39 PM)
artemis wants to know how you're typing and on what

luna (9:41 PM)
a lady never tells her secrets

ami (9:41 PM)
I've actually also been thinking it was an odd choice for us all to keep the same hairstyles

ami (9:41 PM)
especially usagi - it's so distinctive, I don't know how no one's noticed it

rei (9:41 PM)
especially with all that crying

usagi (9:42 PM)
hey!

usagi (9:42 PM)
actually, you know what? I can't even argue with that

usagi (9:43 PM)
it's like they don't even know me

mina (9:44 PM)
I mean, I think we just keep our normal hairstyles

ami (9:46 PM)
usagi's pen will change her hair temporarily, so it's theoretically possible for them to pull off

mina (9:47 PM)
fair

rei (9:48 PM)
also, they're pens that transform us so we can use literal magic

usagi (9:49 PM)
you can always use magic

rei (9:50 PM)
what I do when I'm normal is very different from shooting a fireball out of my hands

usagi (9:51 PM)
okay, yeah, that's true

rei (9:53 PM)
and the point is, you couldn't tell me that a temporary hair change is beyond them even without usagi's pen

ami (9:54 PM)
at least you all have useful attacks

ami (9:55 PM)
I make bubbles so monsters can't see

ami (9:56 PM)
if I was stuck alone I'd be toast, the rest of you can at least defend yourselves

makoto (9:56 PM)
maybe they just figure that you're too smart to get stuck alone

mina (9:58 PM)
that's not always about brains, though

mina (9:58 PM)
sometimes it's just luck

mina (9:58 PM)
or necessity

rei (10:00 PM)
mina, there was a long time where we were clearly still out there and you stayed sailor v rather than joining us

rei (10:01 PM)
stop acting like you weren't a lone wolf by choice

mina (10:02 PM)
it wasn't the right timing yet

rei (10:03 PM)

mina (10:04 PM)
artemis is backing me up but can't type it

makoto (10:04 PM)
why do you get a cat in the first place?

makoto (10:05 PM)
like, usagi makes sense, but maybe the rest of us want guardian cats to help us out

rei (10:05 PM)
at least you could get a normal cat if you wanted

rei (10:06 PM)
I couldn't, it might eat my crows

makoto (10:07 PM)
at least you have crows

makoto (10:08 PM)
it's really just me and ami who were totally shut out of the magic pet game

usagi (10:09 PM)
ami has a pet computer

usagi (10:10 PM)
that's sort of similar, right?

mina (10:11 PM)
I think that's a different category of thing

mina (10:12 PM)
unless you want to claim that your transform pen is also a pet

makoto (10:14 PM)
honestly, though, one of my complaints is no kneepads

makoto (10:15 PM)
it's so easy to injure ourselves, and it's not like transforming back heals us from everything

ami (10:16 PM)
I do wish the skirts were less short

ami (10:17 PM)
pockets would be helpful

rei (10:17 PM)
at least you can use your boots to hold things

rei (10:18 PM)
I have nothing unless I want to carry a fucking purse while I'm transformed

usagi (10:20 PM)
I don't know, that could look pretty cool

rei (10:22 PM)
I need mobility, not a purse to hold my id and some cash

mina (10:23 PM)
I'm with you

mina (10:24 PM)
I'm about one step away from fitting artemis with a little backpack or something

usagi (10:24 PM)
ohhh, that's a great idea

luna (10:25 PM)
absolutely not, usagi

usagi (10:26 PM)
come on, luna

usagi (10:27 PM)
keeping things in my boots is distracting, and I need all my attention on fighting monsters

luna (10:27 PM)
no

luna (10:27 PM)
you don't need an ID and cash to fight monsters, you're not going out to get ice cream afterward as sailor scouts

luna (10:27 PM)
and what if it fell out of your pocket?

mina (10:28 PM)
then we're crime-fighting thieves

mina (10:28 PM)
or the monsters stole the ids, we're just returning them to their rightful owners

makoto (10:29 PM)
that's certainly a cover story

rei (10:29 PM)
a terrible one

rei (10:30 PM)
seriously, who do I talk to about new shoes?

Notes:

i don't know what this is, either. a logical result of my fixation on workskins born out of my mcu series and a simultaneous desire to not take the world super seriously? i mean, probably. rn it's just a one-shot, but this is the kind of thing i could probably expand on if people are interested?

kudos/comments always appreciated, and most importantly, i hope everyone has the best day available to them. <3
