[ thunder crashes. the wind howls. a blond youth wearing an enormous cable-knit sweater over a dress shirt with the collar popped places his palms flat on the counter of a starter-apartment kitchen and earnestly addresses the camera. ]

Hello! The current circumstances are less than ideal, but I can put this off no longer.

Whether you know me or not, I am Titus Alexius, formerly of the Reim empire. It is more or less accurate to say that I am sixteen years old. I have been conducting research with the Lunar Scientia for the past several months, and I have also had more than I can stand of living alone. Therefore, I have prepared a simple twenty-question survey!

Anyone and everyone is welcome to submit a response, and there is no need to answer every question. But to show my appreciation, I shall provide all those who complete at least the identifying information with a code redeemable for one free empanada from the stall by the fountain at the northern end of Greatmoon Groves. [ he pauses thoughtfully and then leans in further. ]

...And if you do not care for empanadas, let me know and I will arrange an alternative.

...Also, I am reasonably certain everything in that marketplace is currently closed due to the inclement weather and invisible tentacle attacks. And a number of the survey questions, too, posit situations or activities that are momentarily, if not impossible, then inadvisable. But, well. We must believe these hardships will be temporary, mustn't we?... [ he shrugs helplessly and grimaces! ]

Thank you for your attention!

[ and underneath the prismagram video is the survey in question, along with a few additional links. ]

2. Are you satisfied with your current living situation?
Yes and tentative yes

3. Do you have any roommates?
No and maybe

No? I produce pheromones?? That explains some stuff, I guess

7. Would you consider the recurring presence of Cordis pheromones in a shared living space to be a benefit, a drawback, or neither?
That depends on if either of us has company coming over

8. Are you comfortable with moths and butterflies of various sizes?
My cat will probably try to eat them, so I’m comfortable so long as they are not going to put him in intestinal distress

9. Do you have any strong feelings regarding magic or mages?
As long as it is not being used against others without their consent, it’s fine.

I have insomnia

11. Can you fly?
Sometimes

i dont want to live with anyone because eventually one of us is gonna fuck off but i can stand being long distance bros

I cannot quite understand that logic, but long-distance brotherhood is entirely acceptable to me as well! Do you prefer to go by turntech, or Godhead?

Thank you for your response! (As a practical matter, you won't actually need a code to get the empanada. Just tell the owner that you answered my survey) Now, if I may ask some follow-up questions! >1. No and why? Of course, because I like making friends. And after all, why not? >4. I’d be more interested getting to know who I’m sharing any space with In my experience, becoming friends is often a good method to get to know someone, but certainly, I am open to getting to know you without also becoming friends. (At least, theoretically I am, but in practice I may find it difficult, so your patience would be appreciated) >5. Yes, but let’s see how they interact first Wow, you just got here and you already have a cat! I think your priorities are admirable. (Well, or maybe you simply had a cat at home who arrived along with you? That is also good) In any case, the cat I wish to adopt does not yet live with me, because I aim to get settled in my new place (wherever it ends up being) before I bring him home... But perhaps Beans! would be amenable to hosting a sort of "play date" between him and your cat to see? >6. No? I produce pheromones?? That explains some stuff, I guess It is a common Cordis trait, though not a universal one! I cannot detect my own but have been told they are somewhat reminiscent of apricot. They are also potent enough to result in preferential treatment from strangers, which was somewhat baffling before I figured out what was happening >7. That depends on if either of us has company coming over I suppose, but if we are both producing them, do you think it's worth worrying about? >8. My cat will probably try to eat them, so I’m comfortable so long as they are not going to put him in intestinal distress This might be a slight problem, since the moth or butterfly in question will generally be me. 😰 >10. I have insomnia Wow!! That is really amazing!! So do I! >11. Sometimes Please describe the circumstances under which you can fly! >12. I can’t cook well This is another amazing coincidence... >13. Yes. It’s usually that or takeout most nights for me anyways. I prefer seafood. We have this in common as well, though as of late I am "packing lunch," at least. And I can make eggs. >14. ——For snacks? Sure >——For clothes? Maybe >——Other (please specify) maybe. Uncertain Well then, let's go shopping for snacks and maybe also for clothes and other things! >16./17. Is there any type of moonlacing you prefer to either hugging or kissing? If so, would you like to do that?

You broke down almost all of your 'simple' twenty questions into more questions.

Before I decide if I even want to touch this, I have one for you.

What's an empanada.

>1. Most people don’t want to make friends with me.

>4. We could start as acquaintances and then maybe become friends.

>5. The cat is a part of me. Have you ever owned a cat before?

>6. Can you pick up on another Cordis pheromones?

>7. It may be unpleasant for them. I wouldn’t mind meeting up with you, but it also depends on the company, whether or not they can handle it, right?

>8. The cat is a part of me, and I can put him away so it should not be a problem. Are you a moth/butterfly often?

>10. Why is having insomnia amazing?

>11. Along with the cat, I can summon a disc that can lift me into the air. I mainly use it to move quickly instead of flying.

>13. You can cook eggs and I can boil water for pasta. I think we’d be in some trouble living off a diet like that.

>14. Maybe that is how we can meet.

>16./17. I’d prefer hugging or holding hands.

? Yes

[ andwhataboutit.gif ]

An empanada is a type of delicious pastry with sweet or savory filling! My favorite is guava cheese, but there are many other varieties as well. They are small enough to be held in one hand... Actually it occurs to me that they are quite similar to "chebureki," if you are familiar with those

cute.

I'm not.

Name:
Moonblessing: Cordis.
Approximate length of tenure on Prismatica: 6 months.

1. Are we friends? No.
—If no or unsure, would you like to be friends?
No.

2. Are you satisfied with your current living situation? Yes.
—If yes, might you also be satisfied with a different living situation?
Not really.

3. Do you have any roommates? Yes.
—If yes, would you like another one?
No.

4. Would you like to live on Level 2 of Lunatia in a cottage with a small garden? No.

5. Do you like cats? Not in particular.

6. Do you have any aversions or preferences when it comes to fragrance (both in general, and with regard to Cordis pheromones)? Not really.

7. Would you consider the recurring presence of Cordis pheromones in a shared living space to be a benefit, a drawback, or neither? Drawback.

8. Are you comfortable with moths and butterflies of various sizes? Not if they're bigger than bugs should be.

9. Do you have any strong feelings regarding magic or mages? Yes.
—If yes, please elaborate:
Mages are annoying.

10. Do you like to stay up late? Yes.

11. Can you fly? No.
—If no, would you like to?
No.

12. Do you like to cook? No.
——If no, would you like me to cook for you?
No.

13. Do you like to go out to eat? I guess.
—If yes, would you like to go out to eat with me?
No.

14. Do you like to go shopping? No. [Unless you count what Therion does as shopping.]

15. Do you wish to obtain more possessions? Doesn't everyone?
—If yes, would you like some of mine?
Sure.
——If yes, please visit my current home (SEE SUPPLEMENT B) to make your selections (the Lost Orrery and leatherbound treasury of Prismatican myth are off limits).

16. Do you like hugging? No.

17. Do you like kissing? No.

18. Are you a member of the Lunar Scientia or the Moon Knights? No.

19. Do you have any strong feelings regarding the Lunar Scientia or the Moon Knights? No.

20. Would you like to register a grievance or complaint of any kind against the Lunar Scientia (e.g., for leadership's continued reckless rush to reawaken anything and everything, no matter how poorly understood and potentially cursed)? Sounds like you do.

>1. Most people don’t want to make friends with me. Why not? You don't seem all that unpleasant! >5. The cat is a part of me. Have you ever owned a cat before? What a wonderful thing to be a part of you... No, but I have played with many cats. >6. Can you pick up on another Cordis pheromones? Yes! I think so. I have before. >7. It may be unpleasant for them. I wouldn’t mind meeting up with you, but it also depends on the company, whether or not they can handle it, right? I suppose, but if mine are unpleasant for them, wouldn't yours be, too? Maybe I am misunderstanding. (Is this a scenario where we don't live together, but you come to visit?) >8. Are you a moth/butterfly often? I am a moth/butterfly occasionally. When Cordis manifests in this way, I generally also shrink down to about the size of a regular moth or butterfly. (Although one time I remained full size and grew very large wings) But most of the time I get cat features, or kitsune features, or no features in particular >10. Why is having insomnia amazing? Well It isn't. I was just a little excited about having something in common. >11. Along with the cat, I can summon a disc that can lift me into the air. I mainly use it to move quickly instead of flying. How interesting! Is it hard to balance on it when it's moving quickly? >13. You can cook eggs and I can boil water for pasta. I think we’d be in some trouble living off a diet like that. We can eat carbonara! >14. Maybe that is how we can meet. Wonderful. I hope we can safely shop for snacks, etc. soon! >16./17. I’d prefer hugging or holding hands. Then let us hug or hold hands by all means! I mean, if we decide we want to.

You've left your name out of the identifying information... But, well I suppose it doesn't actually matter. Even if you mean to carry out some sort of survey-related deception, there is little potential for ill-intended mischief when only empanadas are at stake. In any case, you may redeem your empanada by going to the empanada stand and saying that you filled out my survey. Thank you for your responses! 5. Why not? 7. But aren't you also Cordis? (Do you not experience this effect?) 8. Usually, the moths and butterflies in question are almost exactly the size bugs should be (or at least the size they normally are). 9. That's a bit racially charged, isn't it? 15. Excellent. I shall leave the door unlocked 20. My supervisors are already tired of hearing from me on this matter...

>1. We aren’t even talking face to face!

>5. I’d let you meet him so you can find out if you really want your own.

>6. Apricots don’t sound like they smell bad...

>7. Maybe if we did live together it would be too much. It may be best to see how overpowering they are together, or how receptive anyone you have over is to them.

>8. Sounds easy enough to avoid. I personally don’t have a problem with butterflies or moths. Since I’m Cordis as well, the timing should be easy enough to manage.

>10. We’d at least keep similar hours

>11. I don’t have a problem with it. If anyone else tried to ride on it with me, I’m sure it would not be easy for them.

>13. I’ve never tried to make it before.

>14. Maybe once this storm clears.

>16./17. I don’t like touching people. You can probably see where that makes things difficult for someone like me

Isn't he?? In some light, his eyes are the most enchanting green, and his whiskers are two-toned, and he has such a harsh yet musical voice!

Since I'm obviously not going to be your new roommate, I figured my name didn't matter.

[And here's where he'd stop--he's already earned himself his pastry prize--but one of Titus's responses to his answers intrigues him somewhat. Sighing, he types out more answers.]

5. Don't particularly dislike them, either. I don't have strong feelings about most animals unless they try to rip my arm off.

7. I am, and if I smell weird when the moon's up or give off those pheromone things, no one's complained to me about it yet. If I do, I feel like that'd make the situation worse. Two of us going around stinking up the place? No thanks.

8. Then I don't care. See 5.

9. What do you mean, racially?

is this just an interview for a roommate/

Well, all of that is fair enough 7. It can be very difficult to tell, but if you are interested, try paying attention to whether people you don't know seem unusually intrigued by / favorably disposed toward you. I often get all kinds of amazing freebies when Cordis is active! 9. Perhaps "racially" is the wrong term. Certainly, mages may come from any nation, and it's not as though they aren't human. But in old Musta'sim they were seen as a different species entirely, and I believe things are scarcely better in the eastern tribes... No doubt the history and power dynamics differ in your world, but it seemed a troubling generalization (However, you may certainly feel free to find me annoying, personally)

Not at all! Well, not exclusively It is also a possible means of finding shopping buddies, lunch buddies, people who might be willing to cook for me / kiss me, etc.

Hello Aoi!! Thank you for your response! There is actually no empanada code. Just let Madam Empusa know you answered my survey and she will "hook you up" >1. haven't exchanged emails yet. We do know one another's Prismagram usernames, however! >3. having a roommate would trigger risky event flags. Please explain "risky event flags" >4. are there tomatoes in the garden? I don't believe tomatoes were growing at any of the properties I am considering, but we could certainly plant tomatoes. >5. not sure if aoi can take care of another cat right now. Not to worry! I would see to all his care. I merely wanted to ensure you would not be averse to sharing a home with him. >8. if they're pretty and don't hurt aoi or eru. Oh I am going to be the moths/butterflies, and I definitely would not hurt you, so once more, no need to worry! Is Eru your cat? >9. aoi has been one before in another game. Please explain "another game" >11. not in this form. Please tell me about the form in which you can fly! >12. yes. What would you like me to cook for you? I am confident that I can probably follow many recipes >13. / 14. Let's go shopping and go out to eat! >15. no. I have no issues with your lack of desire for more possessions. However, I am a little confused. Do you not plan to acquire snacks/food/objects when we go shopping? >16. yes. yes. Let's hug! >17. yes. yes but that could trigger you going on my route. Please explain "going on your route"

>1. We aren’t even talking face to face! ? Are you significantly less likable in person? >5. I’d let you meet him so you can find out if you really want your own. You are very kind, but it's unlikely I will change my mind! I have been looking forward to living with a cat for quite a long while. >7. Maybe if we did live together it would be too much. I suppose that is true. They might make for a strange and distracting combination... >13. I’ve never tried to make it before. Then shall we try? (Or perhaps we should just go out to a restaurant where they serve carbonara) >16./17. I don’t like touching people. You can probably see where that makes things difficult for someone like me I can indeed. Well, in any case, I will be available for any minimally intimate methods of moonlacing you might need! For example, sitting very near to one another on a bench, or high fives.

> 1. We do know one another's Prismagram usernames, however!
is that like exchanging emails in this setting?

>3. Please explain "risky event flags"
possible sex scenes

>4. I don't believe tomatoes were growing at any of the properties I am considering, but we could certainly plant tomatoes.
tomato juice is aoi's favorite

>8. Oh I am going to be the moths/butterflies, and I definitely would not hurt you, so once more, no need to worry! Is Eru your cat?
yes he is a transceiver cat

>9. Please explain "another game"
aoi was a heroine who was a witch who helped save the world

>11. Please tell me about the form in which you can fly!
aoi was a heroine who was dragon princess who could turn into a white dragon

>12. What would you like me to cook for you? I am confident that I can probably follow many recipes
anything made with love and friendship
but aoi likes chocolate the most

>13. / 14. Let's go shopping and go out to eat!
ok
we can unlock some CGs together

>15. I have no issues with your lack of desire for more possessions. However, I am a little confused. Do you not plan to acquire snacks/food/objects when we go shopping?
aoi is not sure yet
she can't check the CGs to see if she's getting anything

>17. Please explain "going on your route"
you and aoi falling in love

Name: Kazuma Kuwabara
Moonblessing: Iris
Approximate length of tenure on Prismatica: 2 months

1. Are we friends?
We've met. Don't know if that makes us friends but you seem nice enough.

2. Are you satisfied with your current living situation?
I could take it or leave it but I'm on my own and it's kinda lame.

3. Do you have any roommates?
No. See above. Never had a roommate but maybe it's not a bad idea to look.

4. Would you like to live on Level 2 of Lunatia in a cottage with a small garden?
Guess I'd have to see it. Sounds cute. Don't know about sharing a room much less a bed.

5. Do you like cats?
Yes on all points.

6. Do you have any aversions or preferences when it comes to fragrance (both in general, and with regard to Cordis pheromones)?
No? And what?
So long as nothing's too strong I guess it's fine?

7. Would you consider the recurring presence of Cordis pheromones in a shared living space to be a benefit, a drawback, or neither?
Ok never dealt with it. Like is it bad??

8. Are you comfortable with moths and butterflies of various sizes?
Yeah sure.

9. Do you have any strong feelings regarding magic or mages?
No.

10. Do you like to stay up late?
Sometimes yeah.

11. Can you fly?
No and probably no. If I was meant to fly I'd have wings.
I mean I do have wings sometimes but I can't fly with them so. No thanks.

12. Do you like to cook?
I'm not good at it but I'm not about to make anybody take care of me.

13. Do you like to go out to eat?
When I can yeah.
Noodles, waffles, and seafood curry all sound fine. I'm not real picky I don't think.

14. Do you like to go shopping?
Not really but I go with my sister a lot to help her carry things so I'm an A+ carrying things guy.

15. Do you wish to obtain more possessions?
Dude I'm not gonna raid your house. Don't encourage people to raid your house.

16. Do you like hugging?
Sure I guess.

17. Do you like kissing?
I don't wanna answer this.

18. Are you a member of the Lunar Scientia or the Moon Knights?
No.

19. Do you have any strong feelings regarding the Lunar Scientia or the Moon Knights?
I got strong feelings about this whole planet but I'm not sure what they can and can't control.

20. Would you like to register a grievance or complaint of any kind against the Lunar Scientia (e.g., for leadership's continued reckless rush to reawaken anything and everything, no matter how poorly understood and potentially cursed)?
Wait what are they doing??

>1. I think so

>5. I’m not trying to change your mind. Just get you more comfortable with cat-ownership routines. Uri might even enjoy your company more than mine.

>7. I have no idea what my pheromones are like.

>13. Why not?

>14. I’d be willing to try those.

neither just daves fine
if people get attached then we end up fucking off back home that means youre alone again and even worse off
ergo if we just chill at a distance and maybe high five once in a while its less likely to suck sweaty convict balls
