( When the video feed turns on, you'll see a young woman giving the screen a soft smile,
wearing what looks to be like a quite casual white sundress-style dress -- but it's actually a nightgown?? As if she had recently changed into it for the evening.
Though it's not see-through or anything like that but quite solid enough. )

{ in a neutrally soft but genuinely kind-sounding voice }:

... I don't suppose it's "normal" for people to arrive here on their birthdays?
Though I believe due to the time differences, I would have been celebrating my birthday yesterday if I was at home, but...

( Regardless, she gives the screen a Japanese-esque greeting bow. )


My name is Tomoe Hotaru. I won't mind being referred to with simply my first name, "Hotaru".

( She'd rather let others decide how they'd prefer to call her. )


I rushed to the apartments as soon as I realized, so I didn't quite have time to check this device I was given first further but...
Is everything quite all right on the outside yet?...
There's a number of people from my home that I am searching for here. But I suppose the most pressing matter would be...

Ah, she often has called herself in the past as "Chibiusa". But her real name is "Usagi".
If you know of someone here who has gone by either,

.... as well as someone with the name "Serenity",

..... Please let me know. Thank you very much in advance.


{ ooc: Hotaru is actually in Princess Saturn form from after Neo-Queen Serenity's coronation!
For her Info page see here! }

[Oh, would you look at that. Someone from home.]

Hotaru-chan, welcome. Chibiusa isn't here, but Usagi is. She'll be happy to see you.

!! -- Endymion-- ...Mamoru-sama??! { it's still hard to not call him the former-- }

( okay Hotaru wasn't expecting to see him so soon though.

Even in Crystal Tokyo still, Mamoru could be Elusive... )

{ regardless, Hotaru will give a bow typical of what she would give Endymion at home
-- she's a bit tense in pose, but overall her expression is filled with genuine relief. }

-- You're all right!! Considering the state of the outside -- I was greatly concerned...

( Everyone outside is singing and dancing, but Mamoru thankfully seems completely unaffected...!! )


.. I did wonder if I should ask more directly about Usagi-san too. I figured people would recognize her name even if I mentioned it in relation to Chibiusa... as in the future, I currently work alongside Chibiusa-chan the most.

( even Usagi herself might be a bit Elusive by then... )

But of course -- it would be an honor to meet Usagi-san in this place as well.


At least, before I had been "pulled" here... Chibiusa-chan was certainly still safe.

Please be rest assured of that--!!

{ She also means -- it seems unlikely Chibiusa upon reaching her more true "Princess" form
or "Princess Lady Serenity" forms as far as Hotaru knew of that would have also arrived here. Hotaru didn't see her upon arrival at all either... }

[reincarnatedprince]

[Even hearing being called Mamoru-sama is still weird and a bit awkward, but he knows not to insist on otherwise. At least not right away. Maybe later on.]

I was lucky enough not to get affected by the... singing.

[At least not yet? Hopefully not at all? Not to say he has a bad singing voice, but he would still rather avoid it.]

I trust you, Hotaru-chan. I know Chibiusa is in good hands, back home.

[Though he does have the mind to ask-]

What's the last thing you remember from home?

1/2 -> {Private Video} ;A;/ ;A;/ {also, this can be kept backdated to night of birthday too yes~}

[saturned]

The last thing I remember... ( and Hotaru now wears a pensive smile, eyes also more serious-- )


... Usagi-chan became Neo Queen Serenity-sama some time ago.. { "some time" }

.. and Chibiusa-chan was in the process of... training to become --


"Princess Lady Serenity"... { which may imply she hadn't quite reached that stage yet b u t }:


.. I'm sorry, that's all I can divulge... for now.


( but then she smiles more genuinely again-- )

2/2

I know you both have been concerned about her future. For now, I can say...

We still hold the Sailor Crystals -- so we should be able to defend as best as we can.


But I am quite glad all the same to see -- Mamoru-sama in good health in... this place.
I'm not sure what I'd have done if you too were caught up in those happenings...

( Hotaru is certainly a good singer in her own right, but to sing unprompted in public...!! )

-- Of course, I would have tried { 'to help!!' } -- to come to Mamoru-sama's aide if necessary, but...!!
It seems... rather intense out there.

{ She had ALMOST considered trying to still sneak out to see what food the local spots here had to offer and grab a self indulgent birthday snack
and possibly an entire cake for herself aLMOST.
She's by herself here!! Not under any sort of supervision ... of course she will still stick by her duties as close as possible .. but to actually have a breather again...!!
But seeing that many people under the spell definitely threw her off...!! It's one thing to be Saturn and another for it to be "that"...!! )

[ It was quite late in the evening by now too, but it was also hard to sleep knowing everything happening outside. ]
