OK, I've been rereading some of the fanfics about new male characters
for SM and the Muse of Insanity ( Hannibal Lecter in a pretty dress ) 
decided it was time to give me another kick in the head.

Why not an alternate universe where we shift the genders of every
character in the SM universe ? Not during the season but straight
from the _beginning_ . Instead of a Queen Serenity we get a male
equivalent and all that. Granted that would make a really weird yaoi 
fic in one instance, I think the idea has not been done yet.  

Or a variation on that idea , that I've worked on for awhile after I was
struck by the idea ( I always get distracted from working on my current 
fics by a new idea) we could instead of having Sailor Senshi we could 
have an all male cast of tuxedo wearing, rose throwing, handsome boys. 
And this time Usagi would be the one who would have to pull Mamoru's 
ass out of the fire.  
   
Bishomen No Senshi Tuxedo Moon ? ( I hope I get that Japanese phrase right)
Really weird, isn't it.

BTW, the way I worked on the idea was supposed to send these male version of
the Senshi into their timestream, a sample of this insanity can be found below:

' Well, technically in our timestream we are you.' Kyoshiro explained to his
female counterpart, Rei, who getting very confused.  

' You mean you're me ?!? I'm getting confused.' Rei said.

' Anyway as our great Guardian of Time over here explains ,' Kyoshiro
said sarcastically as he pointed his thumb at the green-haired boy beside 
him ' we were caught in a space time distortion that sent us flying all over 
the place.'

Maybe I should release it when I finish with it.
