OKAY CHANGE TO THE SYSTEM
Instead of being disallowed to fraternize, Zodiacs could ONLY fraternize with each other. When you were awoken for Zodiac training when you were young, you were taken the ability away to have children; Zodiacs mother no children, Zodiacs father no children. Zodiacs go away to the Surrounding to die. Both Captains encourage relationships with each other -- just not monogamous ones: you were meant to kind of, er, Love Your Neighbour in those senses. As quoted from Aries:
"He was very much of the belief that Zodiac should ONLY fraternize with Zodiac, no outsider, and that it should be fraternization, not monogamy. It was basically kind of a forced polygamous arrangement where you all had, er, free reign with each other, but ardent monogamy with each other was discouraged -- you were meant to love every single other one of your Zodiacs. The Prince and the Princess (and the hands) were exempt from this. Otherwise, it was kind of an intertwined Free Love deal."
So if you were monogamously attached -- in any form -- this was frowned upon a bit, you had to keep it under the radar. It was meant to be (as Coda said, thanks Coda) "bromance taking comfort in each other's arms but not stupid romantic-passion s**t" (isn't that poetry). HOMOSEXUAL? FINE. HETEROSEXUAL? GREAT. TEAM ORGY? MAKE SURE SOMEBODY'S HOLDING THE LINE WHILE YOU GO FOR IT. ALSO DON'T EMBARRASS THE PRINCESS AND THE PRINCE.
Also Stae's beautiful "We are Zodiacs. The only things we ******** are each other and chaos monsters."
Probably as well as a funeral, you had like, a mock marriage ceremony. To everyone else. Every Zodiac wears a ring.
NOT A NORMAL RING
IN PRESENT DAY:
EVERY SINGLE ZODIAC HAS A WHITE BURN MARK AROUND THEIR RIGHT RING FINGER WHERE THEY BRANDED A WEDDING RING MARK.
TL;DR
Spartan arrangement.
Everyone has probably slept with each other at least once. I know, I know.

Past Capricorn
Capricorn hails from Saturn, a stigma that doesn't entirely go away even if you are holding the line with a handful of others. Capricorn was prickly, acerbic, and somewhat rude; she held her post with VERY little fraternization with the others, until Captain Aries puts her to task for this. The other Zodiac Senshi mistrusted her as the Senshi of Secrets-- her tasks were often kept low key and she was called upon by their Captain to rat them out*. Capricorn was always a realist, as well as a bit of a stick in the mud-- she considers her task the ultimate of ultimates, and with her ability to procreate taken away, she considers the carnal pleasures to be things that she doesn't need to partake in. And trying to tell your fellow Zodiac that you trust them implicitly when she's selling their secrets to their esteemed leader? Doesn't happen too easily.
*Her tasks mainly consisted of field work-- not who was banging whom. Though they are at the edge of space and some loved to gossip, and it was generally assumed that Aurelia was a tattle tale.
Past Aurelia Thorne
Aurelia's parents divorced when she was six, and she has always known it was because of her. This is not to say that she believes this; her parents actually sat her down and explained every reason why they were separating, including the stress of a young, bright child. Her parents were both Psychiatrists, highly paid psychiatrists, who both enjoyed bringing her up in completely different extremes, and explaining painstakingly why the other parent was in error. Aurelia has always kept painstaking notes, has filled journals upon journals of her every thought and feeling, and has a horrendous time trusting. She does not trust her parents. She does not trust her step mother, her step father, her half siblings, her grandparents, anyone. The only person she trusts is Miss Barrett, but that is more Hero worship than trust. She doesn't even trust herself-- she trusts time, she trusts numbers, she trusts school; She trusts in the idea that you will always, always come up short and disappoint her. She trusts that you will hurt her. She trusts that she will hurt you. She trusts that at the end of the day, humans are more dark than light, that the glass is not even half empty, its completely empty.
She believes that every single one of you is about to stab her in the back, and she is not going to go down on the ides of March, thank you very much, she will divine all dreams and hear about all assasination plots and she's going to kick Brutus in the balls. Et tu, Brute?
Current Sailor Capricorn
Sailor Capricorn has to depend on the other Zodiacs to fight. She has to, but she has trust issues; she's fine if she's ordered to Guard the line; actually fighting in a melee basis, where she has to depend that you've "got her back" scares her more than you can possibly imagine. She HATES Sagittarius; she feels guilty talking to Libra; she trusts her Princess but only to the extent that she's their Princess and they HAVE to love and trust her. She doubts everything and everyone and will always think that you have dozens of dastardly reasons for any sign of weakness or fatigue or failure.
Current Aurelia Thorne
Best friend, arms bearer, and secretary to their esteemed leader, Hero Barrett; currently rooming at Crystal Academy with one Giselle Petrova, to the consternation of said esteemed leader. Aurelia is looking towards the Summer with abject fear-- her parents, with their incessant questions, and desire to know every detail and iota of her life in order to make sure their daughter is well adjusted (NEWSFLASH: she's not.) is a constant, nagging worry. How to explain Sailor Senshi's, and just what Hero, and maybe the other Zodiacs, mean to her? Because it will be DEMANDED of her, it has always been demanded of her, to be completely frank with her thoughts and emotions. This should make Aurelia well adjusted, according to her parents. But it has turned Aurelia on to herself, like a cancerous monster. Aurelia has a Diary, and then a Secret Diary and then a REALLY Secret Diary, hidden about her room, in order to conceal her feelings from just about anyone. Aurelia should see a therapist. Aurelia HAS seen a therapist, TWO, all of her life; as with all things, therapy is only good in correct doses. She's been overdosing on feelings and thoughts and emotions and secrets and fears forever.
Plots/Ideas
*Aurelia loves gossip like she loves Mother's milk; Gossip, all kinds, any shape or size. *I'd like Rps with ALL of the Zodiacs, and also how she dealt with them in the past. *THE ZODIACS WILL TEACH HER HOW TO TRUST WITH THE POWER OF LOVE~

Since Mel poked me to post... <3
PAST CARPO One of the Hands, Carpo travelled with Chronos, Eon, Zue and her fellow Seasons from Zodiac outpost to Zodiac outpost. Assisted Chronos, not a fighter.
Carpo was originally from Jupiter, maybe? IDK.
She liked the ladies.
Cancer Liked Carpo but never told her or /anyoneelseever/. Carpo liked the ladies, so Carpo just liked Cancer as a very dear friend and never cottoned on he had any special affection for her.
Carpo was loyal to her princess and despite having a playful nature, always tried her best and was devoted to her work. Much more focused than present-Carpo. Less distracted...since out in space there isn't 10001 new things to try and people to meet.
She strove to be nice to all the Zodiacs whether that meant being chummy or leaving them alone – whatever they preferred. She was a naturally friendly girl and besides, when you’re out in space with only a few people, you don’t wanna piss those people off!
She never let it publicly be known, but she was kind of lonely. A very romantic soul, she sort of wanted to have a relationship with someone like what Serenade and Eon had (she thought they were so damn adorable!).
She loved visiting the Moon Court and Earth on the rare occasion the Zodiacs and the rest of Chronos’ court went– so many pretty girls to turn her head and a chance for romance! Which ironically, if anything came of her crushes, could only be short-lived flings NOT the life long romance she craved. Still, fun times, fun times.
PRESENT CARPO A Season senshi and proud of it! She is now more of an action girl than in her previous life.
Carpo still likes the ladies.
Is at Crystal school.
Looks, mannerisms and personality are very alike to her past life.
Besides being more of a fighter, Carpo hasn’t changed much, except she now an Earth girl surrounded by pretty girls all the time. Whereas in her past life romance, dancing and new distracting things never conflicted with her work ethic, never really had a chance to, this Carpo will have some struggles ahead of her.
Because really, her heart rules over her head half the time.
If her honey was a Negaverser, she might pause to attack, if it was a student she'd jump in like Superman in front of Lois Lane if there was a youma, if it was another senshi...yeah, she'll probably trip over her own feet around ya.
PLOTTING Note: Like Flora, she only has flashes of memory of her past life. Imo not being a Zodiac doesn't remember her past life like they do, she didn't get the memory download. She will get some memories in her dreams and when she meets Chronos & Co...and she'd seek to remember more but for now she has very rare flashes of the past, dreams and a gut feeling she should know them, that she did know them.
- Before she is awakened, a couple of run-ins with youma /senshi maybe? - the Zodiacs and Chronos would remember Imo as part of their past memories; maybe they could find her after Barren Pines and that leads to her awakening? She was at Barren Pines, just unawakened. (Cancer, Zue and Gemini Beta offered <3 ) - Somehow gets her awakening as Carpo (Flora will be there?) - More personal relationships with other Hands and Zodiacs, in past and present, please? <3 - Crystal plots. Room mate maybe. - Fling with Gemini Beta! And when it's over, continue to flirt as friends. - Plots with Abe, because Abe remembers Cancer's old crush on Carpo (and now is a girl not a guy) and because they'll be lulz. - As many drama/comedy plots as I can get, because Imo was designed for it >) - Long love/character development plot, need someone who’ll be there all through lulzy/drama short plots, and who’ll end up with her in the end. (Possibly Alba?) - Burn out sometime! She's zealous and insane, so, gonna have her keep up with dancing AND school AND hobbies AND senshi stuff, drinking copious amounts of coffee to sustain the high-energy drain and then...bam. Has a burn out. Maybe mid-fight with someone from the Negaverse. So she'll be forced to sort out her priorities to make it work.

PAST LIBRA
When it came to combat, Libra was best suited to support the other members of the zodiac team, but fought on her own as well, though she was certainly not as strong offensively as some of the other zodiacs. Like Aquarius, she was a capable strategist, but she tended to defer to others if someone else offered a plan, since Chronos and Eon pressed love and teamwork, and Libra was always impressionable and never comfortable with herself.
Libra was always an impressionable soldier, and as an impressionable soldier, she threw herself behind Aries and Chronos, taking their edicts as What Must Be Done. She never questioned their orders, and tirelessly worked to please them, constantly looking for praise or recognition. Of the twelve Zodiacs, Libra was perhaps the most quiet, the most uncomfortable around others, so while she looked for attention from authority, she rarely put herself forward during social events. She was glad to be part of the Zodiac group, cherished the bond that kinship held even if she wasn't even truly comfortable amongst her kin. She belonged in name, and that was what counted for her. As they had given her a place, she did her best to deserve that place, to do more than deserve that place, to excel at the expectations set for the Zodiac guard. Thus she often tended to be wrapped up in projects or training, and even if she was being friendly, she had the tendency to go 'Uh-huh. Yes. Mmmm.' during conversations at times. She got along best with people who shared this trait with her and people who could usually understand what she was talking about if she suddenly burst into chatter about whatever she was doing (frequently, especially when she was nervous). Aquarius was her dearest friend and companion, followed by Virgo, who was willing to talk to her persistently. (Libra was an excellent secret keeper half because of discretion and half because she was often too busy to really pay attention).
-BFFs with Aquarius -Chit-chat time with Virgo -Planetbuddies with Taurus -OBEY THE PRINCESS AND ARIES x10000000000
PRESENT LIBRA
Giselle Petrova was always an impressionable girl.
However, instead of a planet that had shipped her off and marked her to be a zodiac senshi, Giselle grew up in the care of Nestor and Katherine Petrova. Nestor raised her to love history, cultivated her to become a famous scholar, and instilled in her an insatiable desire to be recognized, to garner praise and merit. Nestor Petrova's expectations for his daughter and limited praise for her fueled her ambitions and desires, but her mother's down to earth common sense and gentle, earnest advice balanced her world. Giselle was raised in such a way that she was as studious and socially awkward as Libra, but disliked being close to people at all- in the Petrova household, affection came from compliments and praise for hard work and successes, and though it didn't make her family any less affectionate than others, Giselle grew up to dislike physical affection or being close to people on anything other than an intellectual level. She grew up with little time for friends, and even less for making new friends, and thus tends to make snap judgements about people, categorizing them as allies, enemies, and nonthreats for ease of conversation.
This makes her a pretty difficult person to have to adapt to teamwork, let alone teamwork with a group of people who most of them are either only vaguely familiar or don't hold her regard yet. The fact that she's on Team Cardinal will make an easier transition- Being paired with the most efficient senshi will save Giselle grief. She enjoys the power she feels as Libra, the strength she has at her command, and the anonymity it provides, but how she'll deal with being several rungs under the center of command and working on a team is yet to be seen. As Libra she feels the underlying urge to keep the balance, one that was already strong in her civilian form considering how she specializes in studying imperialist empires and how they toppled. As a team member, she is still a strategist, but her actions are more aggressive as she seeks control more actively. Though she will never disobey her captain, she's far more outgoing about asserting her own power and is dissatisfied with being merely a supporting player rather than an offensive one, which can often work to her disadvantage.
PLOTTING
-RIVARLY WITH TARA, working out the peace treaty. -Stuff with Team Cardinals! -Sparring (With Tara?!) -HOMEWORK CHECK, POSSIBLY

STUFF FROM ROSE REGARDING THE HANDS:
* The Hands have past lives, so what you're able to do IS imagine what their past life was like (club together!)
* They grew up knowing that they were going to be Hands, as they were discovered as senshi when they were fairly young! THEN THEY GOT SENT TO GO BE WITH CHRONOS.
* They didn't get the traditional Zodiac funeral, as they weren't so much fighters as her right-hand men and women -- her friends and helpmates and bodyguards, and people who she used as her conduit for her magic. "Keeping up her morale" is a good way of putting it.
* They came from the planets corresponding to their season:
Summer - Mars Spring - Mercury Winter - Venus Fall - Jupiter
Much as the Shitennou correspond.
* It's completely plausible that they look and act like their past life if you want to: the only thing necessary is that they have the same colour eyes.
* They have the same duty feeling to Chronos as the Zodiacs do.
* TOTALLY DO PAST LIFE STUFF. Because the Hands and the Zodiacs don't get to get Court souls, what we DO get to have fun with is past lives and past life memories and slowly getting access to that s**t. So.
