Has anyone found their Moonblessing transformation drastically change from what you’ve grown used to after several months? If so, how did your transformation change?

More importantly, has anyone’s transformation left them in need of aid getting around?

I'm sorry if I offended you. It's nothing personal. You aren't a real butterfly so you're probably exempt.

I'm glad you could get that, though. It would be nice to disappear sometimes.

[ragingnature]

Is there a reason you don't like butterflies?

Yeah. Those precious few moments that felt like freedom were nice.

[depreciated]

I don't like them because they're weak. That's all. But maybe there's something to be said for them if they could disappear...

It sounds nice. I'm happy you could have those moments.

[ragingnature]

[ Weak. She might not actually be a butterfly but she still takes that a bit personally. ]

I see.

So if you could have any features what would they be?

[depreciated]

[Butterflies remind him too much of himself. He's been told his reasons for disliking butterflies were a bit unfair but he's always been an unfair person.]

I think being a plant would be nice.

[ragingnature]

Plants are nice but the Moons don't give us plantlike features.

Except for that one time with the flowers. But that was pretty normal for me. Heh. 😅

[depreciated]

I've heard. It would be nice to sprout leaves. It would look nice.

Is your world like this one?

[ragingnature]

I don't know. I find it kind of embarrassing.

No. Not at all.

[depreciated]

Is it? It seems like all of this is just embarrassing.

How were the flowers normal for you?

[ragingnature]

Maybe a little.

I'm the Goddess of Spring back home. One of my abilities includes growing flowers anywhere and they often pop up in my hair with various moods.

[depreciated]

Wow. Really? I guess this is what it's like to meet a celebrity.

Can I ask what kinds of flowers? I like flowers.

[ragingnature]

I'm not really a celebrity. I'm barely known back home. There aren't even temples dedicated to me.

All sorts of flowers. Other plants too. It really depends on my mood at the time and how strong the emotion is.

[depreciated]

But isn't Spring important? We celebrate Spring a lot back home.

I guess that would be embarrassing but I think I'd like to paint that.

[ragingnature]

Well, yes. But I'm a fairly new goddess.

You'd like to paint my flowers?

[depreciated]

Sorry, I still don't think I understand why it matters. [At least he's honest.]

Yes. I think it would be nice. Would it be okay?

[ragingnature]

All my duties once fell to my mother so she's the one with temples and worshipers.

Sure. When would you like to meet?

[depreciated]

That makes sense then. I hope that changes for you. I think? Again, I don't know much about this.

My schedule is very open. I am free to meet you whenever and wherever you would like. Thank you for humoring me.

[ragingnature]

I don't know. Having spent time around mortals it feels a little weird to think about them worshipping me.

How about after the Triple Moon? I don't have much planned and I won't be half a fish anymore.

[depreciated]

Would it still be as strange if they were worshipping your mother?

Oh, are you a mermaid? Right now, I mean.

[ragingnature]

They already worship her and have since long before I was born.

Sort of. There's also a bit of sheep mixed in.

[depreciated]

It's a very complicated situation, it feels like. I guess I'm too simple to understand it.

I see. That isn't a mix I would have thought of.

[ragingnature]

I don't think it's that complicated. I'm such a new god that mortals aren't familiar with me like they are my mother. Before coming here I wouldn't have found it so so strange to have a temple dedicated to myself. But after spending so much time with mortals it feels a little strange to be worshipped.

If you're familiar with the hippocampus (the creature not the part of the brain) that's kind of what I'm dealing with.

[depreciated]

That makes sense. I would rather do the worshipping anyway. [It takes him a moment to look up what she means.]

This place doesn't make any sense to me.

[ragingnature]

[ If she'd known that was the problem she might have tried to explain it better. ]

I see.

I agree. If it's not weird moon things happening its other weird things. At least I won't be stuck like this for long.

[depreciated]

[It honestly sounds worse than the way he meant it to.]

When I first came here, that annoying boy band problem was happening. It's always something.
