She's also gotten something wrong though, a check back revealed that there was a Mamoru Kuno and no Tatewaki Kuno. So what happened to Tatewaki? Oh. Nevermind, he was a cousin. Not in the main family at all. Apparently his last name was Mendou or something and he was in another ward of the same district. Sometimes came around Furinkan but mainly kept to bugging his brother Shutaro or something.
As to her Nemesis - he was apparently engaged to...
Sailor Pluto sagged into her chair. This was so wrong.
"Ah, madam, your mail."
"Yes, I..." (blink blink)
Red eyes flicked to the side.
English-style Butler, accent included? Check.
Little plate of crackers and sliced cheese that she'd been nibbling on? Check.
Tea? Tea tray? Tea set? Check, check, and check.
"Uhm, excuse me," said Sailor Pluto, noticing that she was in a fairly comfy chair with a small antique-looking table on which her tea tray and the remains of crackers and such were all sitting. Searching her memories she realized she'd been fairly distracted by events and not paid much attention to such little details.
"Yes, Madam?" asked the butler, having set down a stack of mail for "Setsuna Kuno".
"Who are you?" asked Sailor Pluto, twitching a little.
"Smithers, Madam."
"And you are at the Gates Of Time, where nobody is allowed, because?"
"Delivering your mail, Madam."
"Delivering the mail for 'Setsuna Kuno'?" asked Sailor Pluto.
"Exactly, Madam," said Smithers. "Was there a problem?"
"Well, no, not exactly," said Sailor Pluto. "Other than twice now you've shown up in a place outside normal time and space, bearing cheese and crackers and tea and mail. You're not at all surprised to see me as Sailor Pluto either. Not a hint of surprise or unfamiliarity."
"I'm your butler, Madam," said Smithers with an incline of the head.
"Ah, I see, that explains everything," said Sailor Pluto, twitching.
"Yes, Madam, I have noticed. Another timeslip," said Smithers. "Would you like me to see if you're available?"
"If I'm... what?" asked Sailor Pluto.
"Would you like to meet with yourself, Madam? I'm sure I can find you in the usual place," said Smithers.
twitch twitch twitch. "I have a butler?" said Sailor Pluto.
"Thank you, I think that will do for now," said a very familiar voice.
"Very well, Madam," said Smithers, clicking his heels and exiting.
"I look good in purple," said Sailor Pluto.
"So I do, agreed Setsuna.
