Excuse me, I tried to do my research before asking but I couldn't find my answer. Has anybody become a quite literal animal here during one of the moons? I assume it will go away once the moon is gone but I am concerned over some details. Were you actually that animal? For example, if you became a dog, would you still have died if you ate chocolate? I am mostly worried about any medical ramifications from this.

If anybody knows then I would appreciate the information.

I am still open to doing commissions if anybody would like a new piece despite everything.

Also do you ever just think this might be a punishment from God?

[Soubi will say that last bit was a joke but he's really starting to consider if this is all just some big punishment for him. Like, right? This is all very horrible?]

I've wondered the same frequently.

[ And he's absolutely not joking in the slightest, to the degree where he's genuinely considered using an anon account for this response. He knows Soubi though and life is a farce anyway. ]

No religion I know of conceptualizes its hell like this and yet it seems apt.

a lot of people would say god has a sick sense of humor, if god exists at all.

being an animal isn’t the worst punishment ... but that’s. a solid point.

so
if I end up turning into an animal, I can try ingesting a small amount of something toxic to that animal and report back? but I’d rather not if someone already knows the answer

[stabbersinyerfambles]

aye i was a snake once

it was weird

didnt actually eat anything until i changed back but then snakes dont need to eat often to begin with

or maybe it was chroma that kept me going?

I turned into a sheep but it didn't last long. But that is a good question about if we truly are that animal if we turn into it.

[torsion]

I knew someone that became a rabbit. And another that became a cat.
I didn't notice any medical issues.

What do you take commissions for?

Also, I don't believe in gods.

[depreciated]

I was joking. [He was not.] But this does seem like torture, right?

[depreciated]

You're right that it isn't the worst punishment. There's far worse. [And Soubi feels like he's living it right now and he isn't even the animal.]

We could know the answer if you do it but that might take a while if it ever does.

[Heartless.]

[ends]

yeah.

[ he considers flipping the video feed on just to further the point, but ultimately he decides against it. his friends’ specific gripes with god (and his, to a lesser extent) aren’t the focus of the conversation. ]

since I don’t think you made this to have some philosophical conversation on divine punishment...

and you clearly don’t actually have a problem with me ingesting toxins— [ which is less a jab than it might sound like it is. it’s a little strange, but his offer had been strange, too. ]

I’ll see what I can find out? but why, are you undergoing an animal transformation?

[depreciated]

You were lucky. If being an animal with no limbs can be considered as such. Plus becoming cold-blooded must be difficult.

But thinking about the chroma is a good idea. I wonder if that does make a difference.

[depreciated]

Did you just eat what sheep eat, then?

[depreciated]

I'm just concerned about what could be poisonous to them. Especially with the ravenous hunger during Cordis.

I paint.

And I was joking. I don't either. [Except he truly is beginning to believe there's some type of punishment going on.]

[depreciated]

[Soubi tends to just take things very literally and at face value. If it was a jab then he wouldn't see it as such anyway.]

Not me. I wouldn't be able to text, would I? Unless I became a monkey, I guess.

It's a friend of mine. I'm concerned about their diet and any potential danger they might go through if they eat the wrong thing. If they died because I poisoned them it would be very bad.

[A bit of an understatement.]

[ragingnature]

I wasn't a sheep for very long. It seemed to be more of a stress-induced thing during Sanguis. I changed back after I calmed down.

Also, I'm already vegetarian so I suppose my diet wouldn't change much if I were stuck as a sheep for longer.

[depreciated]

I hope this is only temporary then. I wonder if they're stressed and this is why. I suppose this last month wasn't very easy for anybody.

[ragingnature]

Well, a friend of mine was a cat. I'm not sure if it lasted the entire Moon or for a day or so, though. But I'm not sure if the change due to stress happens to everyone or if it's just because their Moon decided to make them an animal.

[ends]

I don’t know, maybe? animals have pulled off some pretty cool things...
and you’d think this place would have animal phones if this is such a common thing that happens

... but in that case, I’d keep anything toxic to them away. until this wears off. what kind of animal?

you don’t have to answer if it’s too personal

[unhappy]

One time my whole bottom half was a snake, like those uh... naga?
But without any powers
Sometimes I even get temperature-sensitive like I'm cold-blooded too
I haven't gone all the way but the temperature sensitive stuff means maybe about the different medical stuff

[stabbersinyerfambles]

your right though in the end i was lucky my housemates were there and willing to carry me around so i didnt get too cold

or stepped on

it seemed to for me? i mean even though i wasnt eating i got bigger over the course of the phase

[inordertobelieve]

[ Don't disappoint his fragile heart like this... ]

It does. I'm sorry to hear about whoever turned into an animal.

Even in a society that adjusts for it as much as possible, moonblessings sure insist on making daily life an impossibility.

[torsion]

I suppose just watch out for them. Best anyone can do, really.

I see. I've already got a painting of someone. Feel weird having more than one.
Although...
How are you with maps?

Funny.

[depreciated]

I don't really know why not either. Or why turning into an animal is so common. It doesn't actually make sense considering why we're here.

Cat.

[depreciated]

My friend is a cat, too, and when you put things like that then I guess he probably isn't stressed. It was just unlucky.

[depreciated]

Somebody else had told me about them turning into a snake before. I had wondered about changing from warm-blooded to cold-blooded. Hm.

I should be safe. I can't poison my friend. It wouldn't do him any good.

[No shit.]

[depreciated]

You got bigger?

I really hope that isn't the case for my friend...

[ragingnature]

That's more likely. I suppose it could happen to any of us at any time. Though I've heard from others they could still speak so it's not entirely terrible.
