Author's Notes for The 4 lovers, stranded

(WHAT TIME IS IT, READERS?)
(AUTHOR'S NOTES TIME!)

 Hello and welcome to this stories AUTHOR'S NOTES, where
the author asks herself questions and then answers them by
herself.  
 DISCLAIMER: The ideas presented here are probably the author's,
but still, this author doesn't own Sailor Moon.  Many other people
will much more money do.  No creative infringement intended.

Q:The Four Lovers: Stranded is an interesting title.  What does
it mean?
A: Actually, to me, it just was a way of setting off the stories.
This is a series, after all. 

Q: Series?  More stories?
A: That's right, just as horribly overly romantized as this one.

Q: You're joking, right?
A: Actually...no.

Q: So, what are the titles to the rest of these stories?
A: I won't tell you them all...heck, why note?  The titles
for THE FOUR LOVERS are the following:
        Stranded
        Deep In The Heart
        Happiness Is A Phoenix
        Interim
        Air On A Cosmic String
        Finale In White

Q: Not trying to make the ending too obvious, are we?
A: It's a bit trickier than you think.

Q: So, what do these stories deal with?
A: Mostly, the relationships of the Senshi and the Generals
along with Serenity and Endymion, in their various incarnations.
They're also a way to help produce yet another Sailor Moon theory,
which was shone a little bit here in "Stranded"

Q: A theory? About a kid's show?  Do tell.
A: It deals with the Princess powers.

Q: Princess powers?
A: Yea.  You see, Sailor Moon has three incarnations of self:
Serena, Sailor Moon, and Princess Serenity.  The Senshi only
have two: human, Sailor Senshi.  I thought it would be interesting
to introduce another dimension by adding "Princess" selves to the 
Senshi.  It refines them more, as well as making them more powerful.

Q: More powers?
A: Didn't you notice my oddball attacks?  Yep, these are the
Princess powers.  They're stronger and more versatile than the
current Senshi attacks; Venus's use of her crescent beam, for
example.  

Q: Oh.  Now I remember.
A: Uh-huh.

Q: Nice epilouge, by the way.
A: I expected to explain that.  Just me changing
the format of the legend, that's all.

Q: But...but...but...
A: Hey, I prefer Endymion and Serenity, too.  But she's a bit in love
with Priam right now--or so she thinks.  He's not all he's cracked up
to be, ya know.

Q: Examples?
A: Read "Deep In The Heart."  

Q: *searches archive* I don't see any story.
A: Hasn't been written yet, dope.  Just finished this one.

Q: Well, I'm out of questions.
A: And I'm out of time.  Bye!!
