As part of my session 1 prep for a new Girl by Moonlight campaign I'm running, I wrote up my first-ever set of love letters to use as a framing device for the protagonists' mundane Obligations - when not fighting a rising solar evil, our moons-blessed magical girls (which include a vampiric Guardian, a necromantic Time Traveler, a princely Enigma, and a monstrous boy Outsider) are servants at a skyscraper-sized spiral lunar temple in the middle of Space Casablanca1, with the twin moons of love and artists hanging in the night sky above.
The premise for this campaign, titled Shine as One, which takes place in the Pearlescent Expanse, our group's collaborative sci-fi setting that's 3 years old as of this month, is that of an actual in-universe magical girl TV show, produced by one of our seven major cultures, the Thousand Moons' Creed - a vast federation united in their shared faith of Satellism, where various moons across the galaxy are venerated as patrons of various aspects of reality.
I cannot wait to see these girls (and boy) in motion, in both touching Downtime and cool Mission sessions. (We're starting with the former, as per GbM's rules, unusually for a FitD game.)
I might keep posting about this if there's interest! (Plus there's some setting jargon in these love letters, which I'm happy to elaborate on.)

Embarrassingly we did not name the city in our session 0 yet, but it's a nocturnal far-future coastal metropolis on a planet with a sort of North African climate, built atop ancient ruins of a prior sun-worshipping culture, which I'm sure are nothing to worry about.
