Vacations are interesting.

Just got back from Germany where my parents are stationed. It was a lovely visit, even factoring in our trip to a lovely old castle was cut short because my mom fell and broke her ankle. :\ Dad was on assignment on another whole freakin' continent at the time, so Partner and I wound up having to take care of her all of Friday. Which, honestly, it was nice. We piled onto the sofas and watched nature documentaries on Netflix and just rested from a very full week.

And also I had a complicated fandom dream last night. I was Sailor Moon/Usagi, or an alt of her; for some reason Queen Serenity had reincarnated with me, remembered being Queen of the Moon and promptly brought back the Good Old Days innnn wherever we were. It didn't look particularly like Tokyo. Anyway, I guess I was The Moon Princess again and it was pretty sweet until I discovered this underground (not literally) realm led by... eh, let's call him the Moon Kingdom reincarnation of David Bowie as the Goblin King, and guarded by certain Autobots though not all of them. I remember Mirage and Hot Rod in particular, the latter getting to drive me around and show off for me in an adorable little dream-sidequest. ^_^ So I got to know all the people/bots there and, because I am Usagi and therefore I am the softest heart in the universe, adopt them all as My Friends and swear to protect them.

This is a problem. Because Queen Mom and David Bowie don't like each other.

Like. REALLY don't like each other.

The inevitable happens; Underground Realm and Moon Kingdom troops start lining up to Do Battle, and while I'm running around trying to put a stop to it all I suddenly spot Mamoru over on Queen Serenity's side of the field. The part of me that's still me is like 'pff whatever, he's got the personality of a styrofoam brick' but Usagi-me is like 'no, no, he is CLEARLY brainwashed! .....yeah, he really does get brainwashed a lot, doesn't he?' In that, Usagi!me, you and I are in agreement.

Sadly, I woke up before anything could be resolved one way or the other, but I'm sure I pulled a shiny thing out of my ass and convinced everyone to go home and get some therapy or whatever.
