Hidden Fees by ChibiRikku

Poor Motoki.

#still kind of stuck on the idea that motoki is truly the one who suffers most in the series #if only by exclusion from the action

I actually wrote this comic after joking about the horrible, horrible things Motoki had to do after being dragged into the criminal underworld to make money to pay off all the ridiculous electricity bills that the secret base’s computer uses up without him knowing.

I cannot stop thinking of Motoki committing various blue-collar crimes and inside jobs, and all the while he can not stop making arcade puns.

“You and I are two sides of the same coin.”

“In the claw machine of life, we’re all mere playthings.”

“What do you think this is, a game?”

“I admit I’m largely unfamiliar with policy regarding… illegal aliens.”

Valentine’s day’s right around the corner—here’s scans of the American Sailor Moon Valentine cards (perfect to print out or email to friends for dose of 1995 in 2015.)

Valentine, we make a great team! Now transform and help me fight monsters.

Flying high for you, Valentine! Flying high through a dimensional rift knowing full well that all of us may die in sacrifice on this mission, suspended only by the wispy threads of optimism. For you!

Valentine, you send me into orbit! This is a curious inscription. “You send me into orbit” only makes tangential sense as a declaration of love, and it’s even more tangentially related to moon terminology. The attempt to cross the barrier between ‘love puns’ and ‘space puns’ resulted in this distorted hybrid of a pickup line. Grant it your pity.

I’m on your side, Valentine! For now.

Valentine, you’re a star in my Universe! shouted Sailor Moon indignantly. “You are a star to me! You are continuously burning far away, collapsing in upon yourself just as the billions like you, and I’ll take no notice because it concerns me not. One day you’ll expend all your energy and I’ll see a brief flash of light, but that light will leave no impact. You are nothing but a star in my vast universe.” The other Senshi stalled a moment. It was a disparaging speech coming from someone standing in a tree.

BE MINE! I am struck not only by the use of capitalization and the imperative tense, but by the image chosen to accompany the text. The Senshi are either appalled by such a forward declaration or have noticed Minako’s conspicuous absence and know that she is up to no good.

You hold the power to be my Valentine! Although it’s in the focal plane of the picture, I suppose it was too much to hope for a Rod of Love joke. 

Valentine, together we can’t be beat! Except at D-Point.

It is a truth, universally acknowledged, that every villain must relax in a throne with an unspecified drink in hand and an overconfident challenge in voice.

*Zirconia comes running* My dear Mistress Nehellenia, have you heard , Netherfield Park is let at last!!

#can you imagine all the characters of sailor moon talking like a jane austen book?

“You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you.”

“In such cases as this, it is, I believe, the established mode to express a sense of obligation for the sentiments avowed. However, my regard lies elsewhere; do you find yourself currently in possession of any food?”

“If you stare at the mirror too long, you might get… self-ABSORBED! Ha! Ha! Get it? Anyone?”

“Pluto if you don’t stop it with the time puns I will punch you.”

“Wouldn’t you say you would… clock me?”

“If she wanted to make it night time, all she’d have to do is make the sun… Set-soonah

^ I just think that’s the cutest picture of Neptune, the way she has her hands on her face

I bet when they tock about time-puns it really ticks Uranus off…

I’ll have to keep watch for more time puns
