02 ☣ [VOICE] [OPEN]
[The video starts dark as if something is covering the lens]
Okay, I think it's on and should catch us both, sit down.
[There was the sound of cloth and then the video turned white as whatever was covering the camera, a hand apparently, was pulled away and Sherry sat down on the couch next to Esme.]
Hi, I'm Sherry Birkin and this is Esme Faulkner, we were from the first set of Moon Blessed to arrive and after a conversation on the network, we thought it might be a good idea to have a little get together whenever new people arrive... if any more new people arrive.
[Sitting with his legs tucked under him, Esme nodded his agreement.]
The people here seem to be trying to make us feel welcome, but it's a strange new place and it seems like a lot of people haven't faced anything like this before, so we thought that having someone more experienced but otherwise the same would be a big help.
[Sherry nods as well]
And then there are the changes, which are something I don't think everyone who is here now has gone through yet.
[Sherry falters a little, but doesn't stop.]
I know they might be embarrassing, but there's at least one that could be life-threatening if the changes progress too far. So if we had volunteers who were not affected by the current moon phase and willing to be on call for anyone who thinks they're at risk.
O-or even just scared by their transformation...
[Sherry was doing a reasonable job at being professional but she wasn't used to addressing a lot of people at large and now the nerves were starting to get to her. ]
Mostly we just think it would be helpful. So Sanguis is ending soon, but Cordis is coming up. We were thinking that then any Sanguis or Iris who were willing might be able to help any Cordis cope, or anyone worried about being around any Cordis.
[Esme isn't very good at specific explanations, but he offered to help Sherry get this out so he's going to try, dammit!]
We just really felt like we can do some good if we work together on this. But it isn't anything we can start alone.
[Blue is Sherry and green is Esme]

Just staying inside could be one way of handling it if that's what you want to do, but I don't think it would be necessary in most cases.
no subject
I'm not particularly keen on the casual touching which seems very prevalent here. I'd rather avoid it.
no subject
In that case, I can see why you might want to stay in, especially depending on when you change.
Have you felt any different since the last festival finished?
no subject
No. Nothing unusual. I did feel somewhat... warm during it though.
[He remembers how nice being touched had felt, and now it just makes him uncomfortable.]
no subject
In that case, you're not affected by the Sanguis moon, unfortunately, there's no way to tell if you're affected by the Cordis or Iris moons until it happens and we see the effects.
[Still he mentioned warm... could that mean Iris or would that be reading too much into it? Still, after saying he didn't like to be touched and remembering how Aqua was effected, she decides to add more to the message.]
The Cordis moon will be in effect in a few days if you don't change then, you're most likely affected by Iris, like me. If that's the case with your touch aversion, you really might want to just stay indoors.
no subject
That is good to know. I may try to avoid non-essential trips in that case.
no subject
If you need any help you can call me and I'll help if I can.
no subject
I... appreciate that. I'm... it's very different to what I'm used to.
no subject
Just give me a call if you do end up needing something.
