Hello everyone,

I'm new, but I've been a fan of the Shitennou for years. In fact, it was only through fanfiction.net that I learned of this place's existance.

I'm in need of some help. I began writing a fanfic, my first, about a year ago, and hit a major writer's block. The first ten chapters have been written and are currently being re-edited in accordance with some recent decisions regarding locations and timelines.

If anyone is interested, here is the link to my profile:
http://www.fanfiction.net/u/1635686/Mephibosheth

Further, here is the link to my story. Please forgive the extraordinarily bad title, but I couldn't think of anything snazzier.http://www.fanfiction.net/s/4493228/1/What_I s_Love


The basic idea is an exploration of the development of the relationships between the Senshi and Shitennou as well as that between Endymion and Serenity. Entwined with this is the corruption of Beryl (who I view as a tragic character) and thus the Shitennou. I hope to carry this story in particular through to the destruction of the Silver Millenium, Queen Serenity's last sacrifice and the hope garnered for the future. Of particular interest is describing exactly why (in my opinion) the Shitennou fell. I think that it must be a far more complex reason than just "they were tricked." Just as I wonder why Beryl went bad. Please feel free to PM me if any of you are interested. If not, I'll continue to slog along under my own steam, for if nothing else, the story interests me. And after all, isn't that why we write? Because a story has one by the throat that demands expression?

Please note that my request for a "beta" is not the traditional spell-check, grammar-check person, although such is certainly welcome. I ask more for a person who is willing to help me untangle the knots of ideas within my brain to express a cohesive whole.

If you have finally finished with this extraordinarily LONG request, I thank you humbly for sticking with me so far.

~M.
