Interview with Chiba, Mamoru

Interviewer: Your apartment is wonderful and I found it so easily with Usagi-chan's directions. Thank you Mamoru-san, for agreeing to this interview. So, please tell a bit about yourself.
Mamoru: It's my pleasure. Let's see, normally I don't talk about this sort of thing with strangers, but I guess I could make an exception for this rare occation. I can be called cold at times and admittedly I do not open up to people easily. People see me as very serious but I like to think I have a sense of humor as well. When I was six I lost both of my parents in a car crash. I work a lot of odd jobs and live in an apartment by myself. I can afford it because I am an heir of a rich family. My life was very lonely until Usako came into it, but now she is my family.

Interviewer: Wow, that's pretty heavy. To give the readers a little more on who you are can you tell me more about your role as a Mysterious Soldier?
Mamoru: As Tuxedo Mask I protect my beloved Sailor Moon and the other soldiers as well. I usually don't stay for entire battles, but I do back them up when they need it. As the guardian of Earth it is my duty to help them protect this planet. I am also the reincarnation of a prince of earth in the far past, Endymion.

Interviewer: What is your dream for the future?
Mamoru: In the future I hope to become a doctor. I want to be able to help people. Of course, Usako is also a big part of my future dream as well.

Interviewer: What is your worst fear?
Mamoru: Needles! I absolutely hate them!!

Interviewer: ::laughs:: Considering your dream to be a doctor that's kinda ironic... ::muffles laugh:: Can you tell me a bit about your friends?
Mamoru: First and foremost, Usako is my friend as well as my girlfriend. She is bright, bubbly, and has many beautiful dreams. My friend Motoki-san and his girlfriend Reika-san are about my age and I knew them before Usako. Then there is, of course, Usako's friends, Ami-chan, Rei-chan, Mako-chan, and Minako-chan who are all like kid sisters to me.

Interviewer: What does being a guardian soldier and protector of Earth mean to you?
Mamoru: The job I carry, protecting the Earth and it's people, is more inportant than any dream or hope of my own. Also, protecting the ones I love, Usako and Chibi Usa, my only family, I would give my life for them.
