[OOC NOTES: If your character is the type to jack around with the Scientific Process™ and turn in a bogus survey, please feel at liberty to do so! Real responses, however, will be compiled and there may well be a follow-up post using the information provided.

Respondents of Survey #2, please assume your character got assigned an anonymous case study ID number and asked for contact information so that the study can later get follow-up data on how their actual moonblessing manifested; OOCly this can be handwaved!

Please put survey responses beneath their respective comment headers, but feel free to use the rest of the post for the usual discussion and chatter! Thanks!]

i think i can do that!

fire away, professor

Okay here are a few questions to start with.

1) Are the Sanguis and the Iris also in a relationship with each other, or is it you dating both of them but they don't date each other?

2) Is there any sort of...
The word I've been using is "hierarchy" but what I'm getting at is, what are the internal dynamics like.

Is one person the "peacemaker" or one person the one everyone else defers to or anything like that.

3) When it's just two of you does it feel like the third one is "missing", or are you pretty content in pairs as well as in a trio?

[foolaround]

1.) they arent together（＞人＜；）but i think they should be! we all live together and theres definitely SOMETHING between them

2. i... guess? im the peacemaker?? i kind of had the leader role in our friend group at home, and a little of that carried over here...

3. i like it a lot better when theyre both around, but im happy if its just two of us too

[starmark]

Oh, okay.
So it's not really the three of you so much as it is you with each of them indiviually.
At least not yet.

Can you tell me more about how the Sanguis acts toward you when it's Cordis?
Sanguis/Cordis seems like a fairly rare match so I'd like to know more about that.

[foolaround]

she kind of follows me around a little more during cordis, it's really cute and sweet. and she touches me a lot more? just little things without thinking, like touching my hair or straightening out my clothes

she's affected by the pheromones but she tries to act like she's not
