The Princess Serenity Prayer

serenity
Usagi,

Send Princess Serenity to Moon Frisbee things I cannot change,
The prisms to change the things I can,
And Luna to tell me the difference.


Cast all your anxiety on Tuxedo Mask, because he cares for you. Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy Queen Beryl prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist her, standing firm in the Moon Kingdom, because you know that the Sailor Soldiers throughout the world are undergoing the same kind of sufferings.


Glory to Queen Selene, and to Princess Serenity, and to King Endymion,
As it was in the Silver Millennium, and now, and always, and to 30th-Century Crystal Tokyo. Amen.


Oh, that you would bless me and enlarge Neo-Tokyo!
Let your Silver Crystal be with me and keep me from Zoisite and Wiseman,
so that they will not hurt me.


Blessed Sailor Starlights,
defend us in the hour of conflict;
be our safeguard against the long-haired general babes of the Negaverse.
May Princess Kakyuu restrain them, we humbly pray;
and do thou, O Prince of the heavenly host,
by the power of Sailor Saturn, thrust, down to the Dead Moon Circus, Queen Nehelenia,
and with her Death Busters, the other wicked spirits
who wander through the world for the ruin of Senshi.

      tbh if i am very honestly with myself i think sailor moon became my default mythology some time ago…. this just needed to happen.

          Oh my god, those stories were so cool. It’s so awesome to see the characters and themes from that universe transposed so lovingly into a fairy tale. Thanks for posting them.

    Dying for someone to do “Hail Senshi, full of grace; the crystals are with thee”.

    If I had seen this as a teenager, I probably would have adopted this as an actual religion. Not totally sure I won’t now as a 30something.

    I now feel less bad for the thing that popped into my head the other day when I was walking my husky, Xena, “Heel, Xena, full of poop… blessed art thou among doggies.”

    For love and exams, I call upon thee
    The pretty, sailor-suited fighter, Sailor Mercury
    Douse mine enemies with cold water
    That they may think about what they have done

    I AM CRYING THESE ARE ALL SO MAGNIFICENT.

    Side tangent: My friend Ashley and I refer to Sailor Jupiter as Our Patron Saint of Ass-Kicking.

    Turn not lesbians to improbable cousins, yea, but respect their love upon the path of righteousness that leads to Neo-Tokyo and the Moon Kingdom.

    I could do this all day.
