A shorter-term question is bothering me this time, and it's one that may affect others.

As far as I can compare the local calendar to the one I'm familiar with at home, my birthday is coming up soon. On the other hand, when I arrived here, I was expecting my birthday to be a good five months off.

Should I mark it now, or wait another three months? I can't decide which would be easier to remember. How are others grappling with it?

That may depend on what they were designed for - something to do with the ceremony itself? Moon effects in general? The cumulative effect of all three moons in particular?

The second option seems unlikely. [And so Ren's buttwings will most likely be a factor she has to plan around at any time of year.] If it's the first, the ceremony's over, and so they likely won't have any further use. If it's the third, who's to say whether that will even happen again?

I don't plan on getting rid of mine, just in case, but I'm not sure if it'll be anything more than a souvenir at this point.

I'll try mine on next Iris phase just in case, but I'm not expecting anything.

That's a solid plan. I may do the same.

I'd appreciate it if you would. You know what the bracelet's effects feel like, and I don't.

[asaqueenshould]

It was more of a dampener than suppressant.

Of course, by the same token, you know what foregoing the bracelet feels like and I don't.

[fridgeninja]

Then we'll both have something to learn.

So we will.
