The Ties That Bind, by Firefly-Shy (PG)
Fandom: Sailor Moon
Pairing: Senshis/Shitennous with background Mamoru Chiba/Usagi Tsukino
Length: ~ 112.600 words
Author on LJ: -
Author Website: FF.net
Why this must be read:
After my last rec I decide I need to rec something more fluffy and funny. Okay this fic has still angst and drama (and a new enemy which isn't a total ripoff from a canon one!) but it still gives us a happy end.
The story is simply and a popular trope. The Shitennous get reincarnate as humans, meet the Senshis and then they fall in love. Easy, right? Wrong.
The fic shows us that this popular trope isn't easy. How can you love people who killed you (in your past life), then tried to kill you again (in your current life) and at least you killed them. Love is amazing but to overcome such things isn't something you can do without problems. Also how can the Shitennous be reborn if the Senshis fought with them? The author asks these question in this fic and unlike so many other stories with this tope the answers are good and without plot holes which basically destroy canon.
I especially enjoy the differences between the relationships of the Inners and the Generals. Every Senshi/Shitennou relationship is different and every one gives us other answers to the questions I mentioned above.

--> An invisible thread connects those who are destined to meet, regardless of time, place, or circumstance. The thread may stretch or tangle, but it will never break." The Shitennou find each other and discover there are some bonds stronger than fate.
