 Time Slowly Approaching
Unfortunately, this year, it seemed as if Ellie had magically found herself writing two lists. One was the parent-friendly list with the day-to-day sorts of goals. And one that her parents would never ever see.
Lately, several concerns about her nightly activities had started to wear upon her. Some affected her teammates, as one would expect from a Senshi Team Captain. However, other concerns were closer to home.
The tomboy sat flopped over her beanbag chair at the base of her bed, running her thumb in an agitated manner over the edge of the piece of paper she held. The paper had been crisp and new to begin with, but the poor side of the paper was starting to get worn already due to all the attention it was getting.
1. Get every teammate to go to their homeworld.
2. Talk to ********* about the Past.
3. Find a successor in case something happens
4. Tell Hank.
The final listed item had been erased several times and rewritten a few times. The blonde had originally wanted to tell her parents. However, after some thought, she wasn't sure if such would even process for her parents and their busy lives. It still stung to think of a year ago when she had awakened in the hospital to find her parents were not there to support their daughter.
Someone had been waiting for her.
Hank
He had been a constant and reliable part of her life. However, even though she needed an outlet in her everyday life for the slightly more unusual life she led after dark, there were risks. Would Hank want to talk to her when she was Iris? Would he want to even acknowledge her? Would he accept the hype from the television and think she was a terrorist? What would happen if someone aligned with Chaos found out that he was a part of her life?
With a heavy sigh, she put the paper on the ground and erased the last item on the list yet another time.
"...why is this so f*ckin' tough?"
Even erasing the item off the list still made her think. She couldn't just erase it and call it done. Like some of her other concerns, the looming question of "What if" always came back to haunt her.
What if something happens to me?
The pencil she had just used to erase the final part of her Resolutions was tapped against the carpet a few times.
"...damned if I don't... damned if I do..." With a grumble, for the final time, she rewrote the final item on the list.
4. Tell Hank if the opportunity arises.
Though she still wasn't happy about it (seeing from her twisted up mouth), the girl had finally completed her Resolutions for the year.

Crystal Clear Exhaustion She was in her bed.
She had no idea how she managed to make it there, but she was in her bed. Ellie rolled her head from one side to the other while keeping her head upon her scrunched up pillow.
Based off the amount of light filtering into her room from the blinds, she'd have to guess it was mid-day. Despite having been asleep for way longer than she'd usually allow, her eyelids felt heavy. The best she could do was squint in the direction of the blinds, blankly gazing out towards the light.
The last thing she remembered was seeing Sailor Psyche.
The corrupt senshi which had saved ********* had apparently been Psyche all along. A smile managed to numbly find a place upon the tomboy's face as the notion passed her mind. Even if neither the cat or the newly changed senshi remembered each other, they still seemed to have that bond they had so many years prior. Perhaps even in a different lifetime, the bonds could not be severed so easily. Chaos was even unable to interfere.
Despite all these thoughts warming her heart, the girl's body would not let such simple thoughts remedy its ailments. Ellie had noticed, but she tried to not let her body's current condition ruin her mood. The closest she could liken her current condition was to something similar to after her yearly sacred duty in her previous lifetime. The other condition her body of the past had been left in was technically worse, thanks to dehydration mixed in, but the blonde wasn't quite used to feeling so weak. She was up at 6 am by choice on an average day and working almost like a machine upon her machines. She didn't slow down, so being forced to slow down in such a manner really would put her in a sour mood.
Good thing she was trying to block out her ailments with warm thoughts.
Her eyes fluttered shut for a couple seconds before she attempted to open them again. There were so many more things to do. Ellie needed to talk to *********. The blonde had questions that needed answering. More than anything, she wanted to meet Psyche again.
Who was Sailor Psyche of this lifetime? Both Parthenope and Victoria had changed drastically between lifetimes. It was very possible that the girl she had seen before was very different from who she once was.
Her body, getting the better of her, forced her body to shut down yet again. The blonde still needed more rest, and if her body had anything to say about it, she was going to get it! Her eyes shut, and soon enough her conscious thoughts fazed into a gentle haze.
All things would be learned in time.
Just not today.

I had a dream that life would be... It wasn't so much that Ellie was sick on her 20th birthday.
No, it was more like she was too tired to get out of bed on her 20th birthday. She had managed to hear the murmur of her mom down the hallway at some unknown time mentioning how it was such a pity that her daughter was stuck in bed on her birthday of all days. Ellie sourly thought about how apparently those other days before her 20th birthday weren't a pity at all, according to her mother's logic.
Annie was somewhere in the house, but it wasn't like that mattered too much to the blonde. She just wanted to rest and to feel better. The tomboy had never been one for celebrating or making birthday wishes, but this year she'd make an exception by wishing to feel up to snuff again!
The day easily passed her by as she remained in a hazy dream for the majority of it, only occasionally waking up to tend to the most basic of needs. Even the minutes she spent awake still felt like they were part of the dream.
However, her world of dreams were quite different from the physical world that was around her.
The last birthday she had spent alive during the Silver Millenium had been so many years ago. Yet, with all her heart, she could remember how dear it was to her. Certainly she had performed the customary dance in celebration. However, her location of celebration was not the standard place. As a senshi, she could have been stationed on any of the other allied worlds. As a performer, she could have been on the road upon any of the numerous worlds within the galaxy, getting ready for the next performance. Even upon the Iridian world, she could have been traveling alone, or perhaps visiting with Babba's clan.
This year, she was at the Grand Hall. Her mother and father had gone all out in decorating the halls in the most glorious of colors, woven tapestries temporarily livening up the usually neutral grounds of commerce. All of the clans had been invited to celebrate and have a merry time. Certainly some of the elders could use some cheer in their lives, considering what sour lives they could lead.
The Queen, Mariengeld, had ushered her daughter away to a room in the back prior to the festivities truly getting started. Despite her age, she still held a certain fairness which was truly hard for any younger native Iridian to match. Iris had followed, and when she entered the room, her eyes fell upon the most eloquent dress she had seen to date. The princess had worn dresses time and again, but there was a certain amount of elegance to this one that she had never seen in her other dresses. Strewn out nearby were various accents and accessories to accompany such a piece of clothing.
"...your highness? Might I ask what this is about?" she asked her mother with a great amount of care, making certain to keep a certain level of formality.
The Queen smiled, quickly drawing up a curtain so there could be a certain level of privacy for the two. "...you probably do not remember, Iris. You were quite a bit younger in the days where I used to wear such outfits. By the time you had returned as a senshi, I no longer wore such frivolous outfits." With a wave of her hand, she gestured to the clothing. "This used to be one of my dresses I wore when I was closer to your age. Truth be told, the colors never truly suited me. Always washed out my skin tone."
The princess nodded her head. If there was one thing native Iridians could be honest about, it was anything dealing with color. The bright yellows did the Queen's skin no favors.
"...So I figured I would pass it on to you, the Princess."
There was a pause where silence filled the room. Both the daughter and mother had been quite adjusted to the formalities of Iris' duties to the world, that calling the younger of the pair by her other title felt foreign.
Iris felt unable to drop such formalities, stepping forward and dutifully replying "I thank you, your highness..."
Mariengeld lifted up a hand and placed it upon her daughter's shoulder. "...please... call me 'mother'..."
With a blink of her golden eyes, the girl nodded. "...thank you, mother..."
With that, mother assisted her only child into her old gown. It had been so long since they had been able to simply be mother and daughter, yet every second they spent brought them that much closer together. Armlets and bangles and beads were placed upon the Princess with care. In the very end, Mariengeld assisted Iris with her hair, even taming some of her usually unruly locks into submission. The results were surprising to say the least.
When the pair exited the room, it was as if an elder and a younger queen had arrived. It was a rare moment when Iris looked like the daughter of Mariengeld, Queen of the Iridian world. Many whom had known Iris for much of her life were humbled into an odd silence as she passed by them. The Iris they knew was rough around the edges, never so polished in all her life. Though jokes could have been made about there being an imposter, none were spoken aloud. Her people had far more respect for her than to make jokes at her expense upon her birthday.
The younger of the regal pair soon enough found a dark skinned man with golden eyes much like her own approaching her. Time had aged the man. His once dark hair was starting to fade, the occasional gray hair peppering throughout his beard. Though he was aging well, more wrinkles seemed to find places near his eyes, a sure sign that despite all the work he did in life, he still made sure to live happy.
The King, Scepiet, stood, awestruck by his daughter's appearance. He had known of his wife's plans, but the end results were no less shocking for an aging man. He placed a hand upon each cape-covered shoulder, grasping firmly to the girl. He was silent for a bit, looking the girl over.
"You look more and more like your mother every day, Iris..." He smiled before pulling the girl into a large hug. "You have grown into a splendid young lady," he continued, not letting loose of his hug. "You are strong, you are caring, you are talented, and you have found your own way in life. Your mother and I could have never imagined having such an amazing young lady to give us the honor of calling her... our daughter..."
Finally seeming to get the full amount of gratification from the hug he had been wanting, he let go of her before guiding her to turn to face the many people of her world's clans. In a lowered tone, he admitted as he looked over the Iridians "...at one time... your mother and I were afraid that you would have to choose between senshi and princess. Both are huge responsibilities, Iris..."
However, he turned to his daughter, a proud smile upon his face. "However, we both know now that you will be able to be both senshi and princess. A princess now, but eventually a queen to your people. We both know your heart lies with your people."
At one time, Iris might have been scared of what the future held. She would have shunned the fact she was of royalty and eventually would have to give up her carefree life as a performer in some traveling show to serve as a dedicated diplomat of foreign exchange. The princess might not have been fully ready at that point, but perhaps for the first time, she was at terms with what the future held. She would treasure the friendships she had made across the universe and keep them with her at the Great Hall for all her days. And nothing said that ********* and the Girls couldn't stop by for a visit.
Her life would be for her people from that point forward.
The princess' hand crept up and fell upon her father's darker skinned one. "...I promise, I will be ready next year, Father..."
Ellie wouldn't remember waking up after the dream-induced memory. The real world was still too much of a blur for her to give a damn. However, since she had remembered the full extent of her life in the past, she had never forgotten her final birthday. She didn't try to let it overwhelm her everyday life, since the past was the past, and the present was the present.
However, as she woke up for one of the many times that day, she lay in her bed with tears in her eyes. Her life had been so full of hope, and before she could get to her next birthday, her whole world had been sentenced to death thanks to a war. She felt regret for something that had never been her fault from over a thousand years ago, and though she could logically tell herself it wasn't her fault, it didn't numb the heartache any.
Fate would have been kinder if it had let her sleep dreamlessly. It wasn't too long before Ellie would once again be swept up by exhaustion's call, and this time, she would sleep without the burden of her memories.
