Hey everyone. I hope you had a fun festival. (´｡• ω •｡`)

I saw some people lose their bracelets during that time, and it makes me really worried about other Moonblessed. Do you have someone you can contact if it gets... bad? I'm pretty lucky in that regard, but I don't know if everyone else is. And some people are young, which makes me even more worried about what might happen. Nobody chose to be here. So you shouldn't have to be put in a position where you feel that desperate, alone, and in pain.

And also, it's only happened twice that I've seen for folks, but... some people turn into full animals. What about people who are jellyfish? Will they just transform, alone, and die? I should talk to the researchers about this. It's pretty messed up.

I guess what I'm trying to say is be safe. It feels really shameful when it's happening, but it's not your fault. I'm an older guy and I've been through a lot and I don't want others to have to do it, too.

I don't know if it'll stop it.

During the festival where all the moons appeared, Moonblessed - people who are "special" and from another world - were given a bracelet to contain them. Some folks lost theirs through whatever reasons and went... uh. Moonphase-y, but intense. More intense than I saw before, but I'm also a homebody and shy.

i never got one where were they?

those nights didnt say anything about turning into animals

tho i guess i didnt ask what moonblessings really meant either

how did it happen last time?

[codecmoment]

Well, it seemed to happen to people at different times - three separate moons, three phases. My partner went first, he turned into a wolf-snake... thing. Like, completely. I don't know what the middle moon is like. Mine went last, which is Iris, and I had lop rabbit ears and a tail. It didn't hurt or anything, physically, and I just wanted to be gentle and touch a little bit. I'm lucky, though.

I met a friend of mine without her bracelet and had to escort her home. She was in a bad way.

[stabbersinyerfambles]

so the reason it happened to everyone so strong was because of that magic the queen did

[ And they were handing out bracelets which were supposed to lessen the effects...just because Cehd'ra was unlucky and missed getting one doesn't mean this was done maliciously. ]

i think mine was like the first moon i was half snake

do you know if it changes i think i want to be a rabbit instead

[codecmoment]

I actually don't know! I imagine it doesn't - once you're blessed, you're... uh, blessed. But I'd have to actually do my own research. Nothing was really explained to us in further detail. I don't know if the folks here really get it, either. But we're special, and special people often have special burdens to carry.

[stabbersinyerfambles]

oh because its only happened a few times right sorry

i guess

i didnt want to be special i just wanted to live

your kind tho gentle suits you

[codecmoment]

Thank you. I've dedicated my life to making the world a better place. So... maybe I'm trying to do that here, too. I can't use my hacking or tech here, not yet, so maybe just opening up some discussion among people just as lost as I am might be helpful.

I'm the support guy anyway.

[stabbersinyerfambles]

and now theres lots of worlds to make better you have your work cut out for you

to tell the truth i think thats admirable

[codecmoment]

( ˙꒳​˙ ) I'm not that idealistic! I can only do what I can for my home. Hence why I dedicated my life and safety for it for over a decade. And I run my own organization to do it. It's very rewarding, if not extremely stressful at times.

But for here, well, I know so little, and it sucks. But it seems like nobody knows much of anything about what we Moonblessed are. It's worrying.

(.v.) ( 'u' ) ( *w* )

sorry i just realized those were faces you were making

you seem like a smart guy though

if you need help? i don't know how i could but i want to

[codecmoment]

Yes, they're called "kaomoji." Aren't they cute? You'll have fun with them. (*・ω・)ﾉ

It's kind of you to offer. What you can do is keep an eye on any other Moonblessed folks you know and make sure you look out for each other.

[stabbersinyerfambles]

kaomoji it sounds doman or hingan maybe? i like them \('w' )/

i met a handful of folk i can do that for
