Summary: I always wondered what happened to the Queen of the Moon. Although she showed up briefly as a sort of hologram in the Special Act, she made no other appearance during the series. I decided to play with her as a character in the PGSM 'universe'. I wanted to delve more into the history of the "past life" and get into the Queen's head.
Although the Princess was blamed for the destruction that took place and the end of the Silver Millennium-someone had to have allowed her forbidden relationship with the Prince. Someone must have made some bad decisions. And that someone must have been the Queen.
Although this is more "alternate universe" than canon, because of my use of the Queen as a character, I'm going to try and keep it within canon by having there be no character interactions that will conflict with what we actually saw in the series, while being aware that we obviously did not see every minute of every character's lives. There are always gaps, and I'm going to take advantage of them to the fullest.
I will also be playing with the backstory. Queen Beryl's head needs to be delved into as well. I'm giving her a history.
To ensure that her mind is really messed up by what goes on around her, I made her reincarnated as a very pragmatic British exchange student, living with a Japanese host family in Tokyo. I got the idea from finding out that friend of mine-who is likewise American-went to middle school in Japan. I made her British, because I wanted to try writing in British English. Making her non-Japanese also covers for the fact that her appearance comes frm the BSSM manga and anime-she's got gray eyes, and silver hair.
Once I started writing and the character came to life and started writing the story for me, she decided to be the editor of the school paper, and cover fashion. I'm a journalist by profession. I don't cover fashion, though. I cover local events, local music, local politics, and my particular specialty: local crime. I was going to choke that off for being MarySue-ism, but it does give her the excuse to always have a camera handy, plus being a member of "the media" gets you places that nobody else can go-which solved the problem of the jewelry collection launch in Episode 1 neatly. So, I decided to roll with it. "Write what you know" is the rule, and I do know the life of a journalist intimately.
I think this will be a fun story to write.
