so i have a couple of questions.

first question, people who've turned into more than one thing because of their moonblessing before. do you like one better than the other? i don't mean being a cordis and then being an iris or something like that, i mean...like sometimes you're a cat and then sometimes you're a fox. or something like that. are you more comfortable as one thing than as another thing.

second question, people who've turned into a dragon. how do you turn the voice thing off. can you turn it off or do you have to just not talk until sanguis is over or what.

third question, say you've been through something pretty fucked up and you want to put it behind you. how do you know when you're really over it and not just pretending that you're over it? i mean what if you think you're fine and then something happens to make you realize you're not really fine. how do you fix that.

last question, i read somewhere that flowers have meanings. how do i find out what flowers mean. is there a book or something or can you just ask a florist or what. do people even care what flowers mean anyway or are they just flowers.

ok i think that's it.

oh my god i want to be a dragon when the fuck is it my turn

i cant answer the first two questions so here i'll help with the last two:

3: i can't say i've ever been entirely over the shit i've been through. i dont even know if i ever will. but it's like having a scar; you'll heal, you'll get better, but that shit's always going to stick with you. you just have to find ways to cope. you know, ways that won't hurt you.

4: look it up because if you're getting flowers for someone and they ask what the flowers mean or look it up themselves you dont wanna fuck it up for them

i mean being a dragon isn't all it's cracked up to be
on one hand you get pretty rich i think
on the other hand good luck talking to anybody without making them want to fuck you

so is it normal to be fine and then all of a sudden something happens and you're not fine anymore
i mean is that just what happens or what

also who said i was getting flowers for anybody

I can't really give you a good answer for the first questions, but I can say from personal experience that there are still many people that take flower meanings VERY seriously.

That being said, there are definitely books that you should consult but you'll also need to keep in mind that different flowers or colours have different meanings from culture to culture...

Are you planning on giving someone flowers? I might be able to help you more if you gave a little more information, is it for the upcoming holiday? Or just something for a friend?

I'm Cordis, so the dragon question is right out. But I'm pretty fond of my newest update that I have. It's better than the normal fox or cat. As for trauma, who knows. I forgot.

You can find books on floriography, though. And you can probably use the search engines on our devices. Though I also wager the right florist will know what to do if you let them know the message you're trying to convey. There's a lot of very specific details tied to it. As for importance, I think there can be some - depending on the person. I'd still wager giving yellow - friendship - roses to someone you are romantically interested wouldn't be wise.

I'M NOT GETTING FLOWERS FOR ANYBODY

but if i was it would be for the holiday yeah

permanon

[starmark]

what do you have instead of the normal fox or cat then
and why do you like it so much i guess

ok so you can just tell a florist "i want flowers that mean this" and they'll just do it? i'm not going to but i'm just wondering

[regelkonform]

Okay, so we're talking completely hypothetical then.

[ Even Germany knows better. He knows what answers like this are... ]

IF you were to get flowers for someone would you be buying them for a friend or would you be buying them for a romantic prospect? Or would it be business related?

[starmark]

right. hypothetical.

i guess i would want to get them for two people
one is romantic i guess
the other one is more like family

hypothetically

[regelkonform]

Where are these hypothetical people from?

That could change my answer.

Or rather where do you imagine them to be from?

[starmark]

why does it matter where they're hypothetically from

[penpoint]

It's closer to a nine-tailed fox, versus the standard orange fox. A lot of white. I like not feeling like I'm always hungry, which is a nice bonus, plus some of the magic is different. I have some interesting tricks.

I mean, it depends on the florist, but I'd wager there's some here who know considering the heavy emphasis they have on intimate relationships. And no, of course you're not. You just need to know in theory.

[starmark]

oh so you're a kitsune
wait
what kind of tricks do you mean

that's the other problem
how do i know the florist will make it say what i really want it to say
and not something stupid

[regelkonform]

I did say that culturally the meaning can vary, didn't I?

[teaserving]

fuck i would've loved that pre-mohammed days

that's called ptsd
it's normal trust me
some shit gets a reaction out of me too
it doesn't take much
one minute you're cool the next you're panicking and ready to fight the first asshole you see
or something like that

why are you asking about flowers then?

[starmark]

what are you saying

you mean the florist could say the flower means one thing
but then you go give it to somebody
and they think it means something completely different anyway

[regelkonform]

That is absolutely what I'm saying.

[starmark]

what the fuck

[regelkonform]

Indeed.

Hypothetical origins, please.

[starmark]

which part
the money part or the fucking people part
actually wait i don't want to know either way

for me it was
...
realizing
that maybe i was doing something for a different reason than i thought
like doing something that feels good
because it feels good to feel good
and if i don't i might go back to
feeling


never mind
ignore that


i'm just curious about the flower thing is all
no other reason

[starmark]

.........................
europe





and japan i guess

[Yaha-kui zaShunina has no experience with the first two questions, so he can't answer, and he's not going to touch the trauma question. But as for the fourth,]

There is a selection of reference books regarding floriography in the Lunar Scientia Headquarters library.

[regelkonform]

"Europe" is a rather general answer, but at least it gives me something to work with. I'm going to assume that these completely fictitious people are in the order you listed them before?

Romantic prospect and then family...?

[teaserving]

the fucking people part
for the record

hey.
look, i know what it's like
and trust me, im the expert in doing something just to get away from it or make myself more miserable
but what you're dealing with
you aren't alone
take what you will from that

well if you're curious then what do you even care huh
for their definition or not

Miwako has consistently only been something like an arctic fox so far, I don't know how I feel if it would change suddenly though... maybe excited to work with something new. Although I might miss my fluffy ears and tail.

I don't think there's a big fix from what I've seen. The best you could do is try to focus on the good things you have in your life. Although sometimes it's easy to be affected by those heavy feelings again, and in that case it's necessary to take some time out and find something to help you cope with it at the moment.

As for flower meanings, I think this is something George would know a lot about... he's so smart and amazing about things like this! But sadly he isn't here, so I wouldn't know. But personally, Miwako would just think it was nice that someone was thinking of me enough to get flowers.

[starmark]

i'm not going to be more specific than that so just fucking deal with it

i mean hypothetically specific
and anyway just do it both ways
cover all the bases
