in a fic of mine , Jadeites redemption appears as a larger part of Things
(Please insert your "this is overdone" Line here)
Im wanting to take it slow, with the spell slowly falling apart.
Im finding one of the first moments of truth as his old personality reawakens, is him Saving or Sparing one of the two following charachters.
Mamoru/Endymion or Rei/Sailor Mars.
Mamoru was what I originaly thought of, but Rei allows more romantic subplot latter on.
At this point in the fic the spells still intact enough hes not going to understand why he did such a thing himself.
