[bright and early on the morning of triple moon comes a surprise network message from danny]

Hello, this is Dr. Daniel Dickens from the Second Nature Clinic. For those who are new here, I work as a therapist there, so if there is anyone in need of treatment and have been unable to find what you're looking for at the hospital, you're welcome to find me there and I'll see what I can do to help.

However, I didn't come here just to make an advertisement: there's something I haven't had happen before during one of these cycles, despite being here for... almost a year, apparently.


[Shy of two months, wow. Time flies.]

So I had some questions for people who have experienced this particular sort of trait for the Iris cycle, regarding... well. The one that involves having tentacles like an octopus.

... And before anyone says anything, no, it didn't replace you-know-what like I've seen some people mention on here before. They're somewhere entirely different, and currently preventing me from doing so much as taking a drink without it ending up on my person...or being able to speak at all, actually.


[... They're coming out of his goddamn face is what Danny is trying to say here.]

So maybe it's not questions I need answered so much as advice on how to deal with them. And hopefully not suffocate to death at some point before the cycle is over either.

Mine regularly replace my arms, and I find doorknobs difficult to deal with, but they have yet to inconvenience me quite so badly as that.

Pierce the damn appendage and hook it into place somewhere out of the way.

[Noiz, that isn't helpful. Most people wouldn't do that, they're too squicked.

Noiz dun curr.]

Mine are occasionally inconvenient, but thankfully the placement of them hasn't been too bizarre anatomically-speaking and they leave my face alone. Markings on the face happens to me frequently, but not entire appendages.

I have to admit that I'm morbidly fascinated by what you're describing, however.

[ Well THAT'S not something he expected to see from his therapist. ]

That's rather unfortunate, Doctor, but I'm an Iris myself and I've never experienced any traits of that nature.

Have you tried a really long straw?

[ They probably have those. SHe doubts he's the first person to have tentacle issues. ]

If it's that serious then contact Lunar Scientia.

It's been said they can permanently heal wounds or return limbs. There should be no reason why they couldn't remove extraneous ones.


[ It's uncertain how long that would last during a Moonblessing that spawns them, or how often the procedure would need repeating. Still, in his opinion, anything sounds better than the potential of slowly suffocating. ]
