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]

[He won't pry, but that description does give him enough to know the answer now.]
But it sounds like you're Iris. Sherry and I both are too.
[Video]
[Don't say it, don't say it, don't say it.]
So if you're an Iris does that mean you're always a, uh, cat?
[Video]
I learned that the hard way when I electrocuted a trash can.
[He responded. He blinks once but didn't react beyond that on his face.]
I've been a cat every day since I was born.

Sorry, still not used to being around people who aren't human.
...But, better to ask now than just assume and then find out 'Cat' is a big insult or something?
Re: [Video]
If you weren't Esme's friend, I'd probably jerk your chain and say Cat is a horrible slur where I'm from and you just hit me with a serious derogatory word.
It isn't, it's fine. This is just how I am. Last time I mutated, I started to glow and I grew antlers.
Re: [Video]
You know there are cats in my world that can glow as well.
[Video]
Cats glow in your world?

Re: [Video]
We call them jelly cats because they have jellyfish genes...but they don't talk like you.
