   It’s definitely springtime.   
      
   Naru zipping Umino up in his sleeping bag was great, it sure beat having   
   to deal with his attentions in front of everyone.  Usagi ambushing Rei   
   with the spicy mustard was even better.  ^_^  It was fun to see them all   
   hanging out together, with Haruna-sensei trying to be laid back.   
      
   Usagi’s mixed feeling about returning to her role as Sailor Moon was   
   what caused the failure of her powers.  Interesting.   
      
   Apparently, what happened at the end of season 1 was a drain, even for   
   the Silver Crystal, since Queen Serenity warned Usagi that it was weakened.   
      
   For being a small house cat, Artemis can at least stall a monster for a   
   good long while when he has to.   
      
   Given the way we like to speculate, one could read something into the   
   way Usagi was holding Ami and blushing, but not really.  I think Usagi   
   just really doesn’t know how to handle to this kind of positive   
   reinforcement.  Going back to episodes 4 and 17, even her own family is   
   sometimes quite blunt about her shortcomings.  It’s all teasing, of   
   course, but how often does she really have anyone tell her they’re   
   genuinely grateful for what she does?  Of course, Rei just can’t let it   
   go on for too long and has to start something.  Which is the other   
   reason not to read too much into that look, given that she literally   
   drops Ami in favor of going after Rei.  Poor Artemis, that had to hurt…   
     And poor Ami looked mortified to have landed on him like that.
