Oh my.

Now, this story started out quite promising but at this point:

Also, Calcite didn't quite recall those Sailor Scouts ever
being quite as... vulgar.  She thought it over. 

Moon Stick Up The Arse?  Jupiter Thundering Butt-whipping?
Venus Bitch Slap Chain?

I broke. I had to stuff a copy of THE DRAGON REBORN in my mouth to keep
from laughing out loud, thus revealing to the rest of the office that I
was reading fanfics not work. Damn ye! <shakes fist ineffectually> That
book tasted bad! I'm tainted by *saidin* hey maybe ... well, it WOULD
explain Constantine but anyway...er, hum yes, anyway...

She was back.  

In England.  

For the wedding of Katerina and Alan.

This is a GREAT explanation for Minako to enter the story!  Excellent
use of character background here!

He thought about going up there, to laugh in John's face and
such, but if there was one thing he learned it was that
getting too personally involved sometimes didn't pay.

LOL. "Constantine. Sell me your soul and I'll tell you how to change
back..." 

"NEMESIS SHADOW WHIP!"

AHA ... but a whip? With Venus clearly about to enter the stage? Oh
well. The outer senshi's attacks all look alike anyway...oh wait, it's
only a whip attack in the manga, sorry...

The hellhounds and the dark beings stared at each other
blankly for a moment, right before the dark creatures sprung
forward with surprising speed.  The sounds of dogs yelping
and whining carried into the night as the unknown horrors
tore into them.

Interesting. Kind of like siccing Dark Kingdom Youmas on the Fallen
Ones. ^_^

John Constantine had the Phantom Stranger, though he wished
he hadn't.

The Sailor Scouts had Sailor Pluto.

Oh, that was a good, dry delivery. Even knowing it came, my cheecks are
attempting to split from grinning.

Suddenly, a skinny, pale, bespeckled head popped out of the
darkness, staring at John with lust-filled eyes.

Honest question: is this supposed to be John Biles?

"There was another Nemesis before the Black Moon.  Wiseman
and his followers named the Black Moon after it." 

"But where's planet Nemesis, then?"

Pluto frowned.  "It is no longer a planet, though parts of
it remain.  Today it is commonly called the asteroid belt."

"It was destroyed?  But... by who?"

"Sailor Nemesis."

Now that was a VERY neat idea.

Gaffo gasped.  "Sailor Pluto's here too?!  Holy mother'a
God... she's the most elusive one of'em all!  Hold on a

Oh my, holding in the guffaws is really starting to hurt. That's what I
call a real Pluto Otaku. 

"No, Great Cthulhu doesn't look nearly as good in a fuku." 

"Now there's some great friggin mental imagery."

I made noise from that one.

"HELL'S CAMERA APOCALYPSE!"

book! must ... grab ... book ...!

entirely too much of the Phantom Stranger.  Perhaps they
were related. 

Now *that* is entirely plausible.

Good reason for Sailor Nemesis to return too!

John smirked and lit a cigarette.  "Well, mate, do not go
gently into those black tights.  Rage, rage against the
wearing of the tights!" 

ROTLMAO... <dances a jig>

"It's won," he said sadly.  "The magic's won.  Another
generation tossing itself to the old Constantine curse."  He

Well, it seems as if Jemma started "the old Constantine curse" so it's
only right she'd have a second chance at things. 


Well, overall this was a tremendously entertaining story. It had a lot
more humor in it than I *ever* expected it to but I think it still was
true to sense of both it's sources. Mucho applause!

Looking forward to the writer's notes.
