  Okay, I'm sure you know this, but the planets of the solar system are all named after gods from the Roman mythology.  So coincidentially, the senshi are too.  And that the Roman gods all have Greek counterparts, right?  Hermes/Mercury, Aprhodite/Venus, Ares/Mars, Hades/Pluto, Poseidon/Neptune, Zeus/Jupiter, Cronos/Saturn, and a few others.  Including the Asteroid Senshi/Amazoness Quartet, who are named after Ceres/Demeter, Pallas Athena, Juno/Hera, and Vesta/Hestia.  Well, what if the things that the senshi did corresponded to what the gods/goddesses did?  Such as, Setsuna would be the god of the underworld, Makoto would be the mother of everyone else, and so on.  Here's what would happen if the senshi actually were their god counterparts and did the same things as them (trust me, after this you'll never see SM the same way again).
First off, Haruka and Mamoru would be married.  Their daughter would be Hotaru.  But then she would kill Haruka, who would later become Minako.  Hotaru would be the mother of Makoto, CereCere, JunJun, Michiru, VesVes, and Setsuna.  But then Makoto would fight in a big battle against Hotaru, and Hotaru would run away or leave or something.
Then Makoto would have a daughter, and that daughter would be PallaPalla.  She and JunJun would, somehow, have three children: Rei, and two others (in the mythology this would be Eris and Hephaestus).  Then Minako would be born from the sea foam, and she and Rei would be in love or something to that effect.
Makoto would have an affair with some guy Leto, and then she would have two children: Usagi and Shingo.  Usagi would be the moon goddess, and Shingo would be the sun god (Apollo).  Then Mako would have another affair with another guy, and her son would be Ami.  Ami would be the messenger to the other senshi, and both Usagi and Shingo would ride these huge chariots across the sky all day.  Usagi's would be silver, and Shingo's would be gold.  Oh yeah, and Usagi would like to hunt too.
And then Mako would have yet another affair (her Greek god counterpart was quite a lech).  This time it would be with CereCere, and the child (?) would be a girl named Proserpine.  But then Setsuna would kidnap Proserpine and try to make her marry her.  CereCere complains to Makoto about it, and Makoto says that if Proserpine had eaten anything while she was with Setsuna that she would have to stay.  Proserpine had eaten six pomegranate seeds, but Makoto and Setsuna made a deal: CereCere's daughter would get to stay with Setsuna for 6 months, and with CereCere for 6 months (joint custody!  hehe). 
Then Michiru would have an affair with some lady (Medusa) in PallaPalla's temple.  PallaPalla gets mad and turns the human lady into a monster.  Then Makoto has a son with a human guy and that son kills the monster lady that PallaPalla created.  Oh, and Michiru would also have a crush on CereCere.  But CereCere says that she wants Michiru to make her a gift, and that would be the most beautiful creature in the world.  Michiru creates a whole herd of horses, then gets carried away and makes some horses for underwater (seahorses).  But she also created other animals while she was making this perfect creature, and those were hippopotami, zebras, giraffes, and donkeys. 
So basically, if the senshi were their Greek god counterparts, there would be some extremely weird things going on.  Be glad that they aren't (but wouldn't this make a good fanfic?).
