Beth, 19, they/them
Art ModHiii I’m Beth!! I love literature and I’m studying to be able to teach it atm! Art has been my main pastime for basically my whole life, and I’ve worked with moderating for most of my teenage years (mostly being an admin on a Harry Potter instagram since I was 13 hehe) and love to see how group work can be used to make something really unique and special.My super duper fun and funky sailor moon fact about ME is that I think Ami is autistic because we are the same person and every time they try to give her a love interest I cry because they aren’t like that they don’t need it.

Formatting ModI love making and collecting illustrations, print design, zines, and comics. Sailor Moon was one of my first forays into the world of comics and the original anime will always be a favorite. I have a white cat and a black cat that are my hard-working studio assistants.My fav sailor scouts are Rei, Usagi, Michiru, Hotaru, Setsuna, and Seiya <3 and my fav villains are Nehelenia, Aluminium Siren, and Lead Crow.
Strix, she/they
Writing ModHi, I'm Strix! Sailor Moon was my first fandom, and I'm still finding new little details to love about it. While I'm an editor by day, this is my first zine! My favourites are the Outers and the Starlights, especially in the manga and the musicals.
