Hello! My name is Lee Gyu-hyuk, I'm a recent arrival. I'm from South Korea, which is on Earth for those of you who are unfamiliar. It's so nice to meet people from other worlds here.

Before I arrived here, I was on a televised contest for musicians. I enjoy music, and was studying it prior to the show. I was wondering if anyone has studied music at the Lunatia Academy and whether you have any advice for someone who would like to do the same. I would really appreciate any thoughts you might have! :]

In the meantime, I am looking for a job. I understand that several moonblessed own businesses. I'm a hard worker and I learn quickly. If anyone is looking to hire another moonblessed, I would like to be considered.

Okay, I think that was everything! Before I go, let me leave with a(n 80s inspired) question:

What’s the most embarrassing fashion trend you used to rock?

It doesn't sound to me like you failed at all. You tried something different. I think that's the important part, that you tried something new. It's okay that it didn't work out.

Still, I know it's easier said than believed. Fans of the show called me the "Silver Spoon" because of my father. It was just a dumb nickname, but sometimes it felt a lot heavier than that.

[glossophobia]

That's a terrible nickname to give to someone. It belittles your own talent and efforts completely. I really do wonder what goes on in the minds of fans sometimes, they put zero consideration into the things they say and do because they're too blinded by their infatuation.

[scholarshipping]

It's only made worse by social media, it seems. It can become kind of an echochamber. They feel...entitled, I guess. There are those who believe if you put yourself into a position to be popular, you accept the consequences that go with it.

[glossophobia]

It's an unfortunate reality but that doesn't mean people should put up with that sort of behavior, nor does that excuse it. There are people out there doing what they love. I know it's not the same for everyone but all my partner ever wanted to do was be able to make people laugh. He's made an amazing career for himself. The popularity doesn't matter, it's the fact he can reach out to so many people now and make them happy.

It really is a shame that that's something others take advantage of. You're sharing a part of yourself to the world, you deserve to be appreciated, not scrutinized.

[scholarshipping]

Thank you. You really didn't have to say all of that, but it's really nice to hear.

[glossophobia]

I like to support others. I don't believe myself to be good at very much else, but that in particular, I'm confident in.

If you would wish to visit the Academy I'd be more than welcome to accompany you outside of my teaching hours.

[scholarshipping]

That would be nice. It would be nice to meet you in person.

[ and then a moment later, whoops: ]

That's not weird, is it? If it is, I'm sorry.

[glossophobia]

It's fine, don't worry. I've experienced weirder things at this point.

Are you caught up on the nonsense you'll have to get used to around here?

[scholarshipping]

The chroma and everything? Do-yoon is sanguis, so he already experienced some of the changes.

[glossophobia]

Sanguis isn't a great one to deal with. They get really bad tempers and are over possessive. You two come out of that one okay?

[scholarshipping]

He wasn't like that at all. He was some kind of bear that can purr! And he wrote me a song for my birthday.

[glossophobia]

That's really cute.

Was your birthday recently?

[scholarshipping]

It was really cute.

My birthday was on the 3rd.

[ so yesterday since he posted this on the 4th i guess ]

[glossophobia]

Oh! Happy belated birthday then.

🎂

[ He is usually not one to use emojis unless he's drunk but he can make an exception this once. ]

I guess that narrows it down to you being either cordis or iris.

I'm going to hope you're cordis.

[scholarshipping]

Thank you! :D

I've heard people don't like Iris very much. Why?

[glossophobia]

I'm iris. I'd rather be sanguis than iris.

I guess the benefits is you can heal yourself automatically? So getting injured isn't that much of a problem. You also get a high pain tolerance which is a good combo for the first one. You've got to be a little careful though because you can miss things like cuts and bruises since it's like you don't even feel anything.

The major downside is you go through this thing called heat. Ya know, like what animals do during mating season.

So you're aroused for hours, sometimes days.

[scholarshipping]

For days? That seems really difficult.

[glossophobia]

That would be putting it lightly. I can't even work or go outside some days. Of course general opinion on being iris would differ depending on... how much you like having sex, and how easily you can get the relief.

I had difficulty with partners at first but I have a boyfriend now. So that helps. A lot.

[scholarshipping]

I don't think I would handle it well. I'll have to hope I'm one of the other ones.
