Do you remember how many times I would mention a section in either Heir to the Empire or some other one that visits vaults on the moon confusing it for that fic? I can never remember to place the events of that fic with its actual title.
Ryoga's relation to Mamoru isn't a big thing in that fic. It's mainly an excuse to introduce the characters to each other. It quickly gets overshadowed by other things in the fic, especially the truth about Endymion.
