prismatica | Sermon #2

[Oh look, for once Pucci's putting his face to a post on the network! ...As username: viadolorosa still, but that's how it is sometimes. There's a few seconds of him trying to get a good angle on bracelet cam, before he smiles warmly and offers everyone a little wave.]

Hello. If we haven't met, I'm Father Pucci, and...I think that I can be of use to at least some of you. I've been under the impression that, even after some months here, adaptation to our need for chroma generation and the methods the moons drive us to use can still make people feel...Uncomfortable, I suppose. Amongst other things. And generally being in a new place with such differing morality can be hard.

So, what I'm offering is simple! We all have our social networks for the tough times, and services to assist with that besides. But if you just want to talk to someone, perhaps I can help you come to terms with this new place. Or simply listen if you have anything on your mind. I'm experienced with listening to people, as well as practicing confidentiality, for what that might be worth.

I'm sure you'll catch me around, if you're not willing to try and organise some sort of meeting at the moment. I hope that we can talk soon!

[There's-- well, yeah. Pucci's gonna laugh at that reaction, how could he not? It's a completely undignified, surprised thing too. Gross!]

Ah-- Well, that is what pheromones do! Attract mates. Or, at the very least, bring people closer so you can moonlace however you like. But...I've found that it works even on people who aren't exactly keen on touch, which is...A complicated piece of knowledge.

But my personal route, now knowing this, would be to find someone you could trust and perhaps wait out those days with them alone. Or a few people, if you're so inclined. And platonic touch will stave off the cravings, but you'll need more of it, constantly. ...I hope that my experience can at least help you make informed decisions and plot your course better.

[can he die??? can he die]

Yeah. [He lets out a nervous laugh, because really, it's not like he's against that kind of stuff, but to imagine people just making a beeline to him is...not what he's into.] And thanks for letting me know, just...how do you even deal with that? Given that you're like...a priest and all.

[This is good advice, really, he's thankful, but he's just imagining trying to find anyone to even trust around here when the last thing he wants is to be here at all.]

[yea but he'll come back, rip buddy]

I'm glad to be of use! The first time's always toughest, even if it's mild. I promise it gets easier as you learn what your body's now capable of.

[Then Pucci shifts, snorts softly to himself. Ah, sweet angel.] ...I broke my vow of celibacy long ago, though. There's no difficulty in that area for me, and I would gladly help people in need, besides. If I don't see this as a simple transactional thing between friends, then I don't know if I could cope. So there you go!

[This Priest Fucks, basically.]

[This is..............so much. It's So Much.]

I...see. [Great, if even the PRIEST can't avoid this, then...] Maybe that's...kind of how to go about it, I guess.

[internally screams]

I-I mean, it's not like I...haven't done it before, it's just...I don't make it a habit, or anything.

[His ears are burning, HOO BOY THIS IS AN AWKWARD TALK TO BE HAVING]

It's one way to do things, certainly. You'll find your own, however! Don't feel like you have to emulate my example.

[Fuck snorting, we're out here straight up laughing now. It's only a few notes of laughter, but he's making no effort to hide how endeared and amused he is by this entire conversation. It's only awkward if you give a shit, Steinbeck. Don't worry.]

You don't have to tell me about your sex life, don't worry! It's none of my business what you do and don't do. But you'll be confronted, and it'll be hard. That's all I wanted to warn you about.

[He feels like he wants to just sink into the ground and stay there forever. A priest, laughing at him...]

Thanks. [A cough.] I mean, I'm really glad you told me about it now instead of having to find out, uh, later.]

[Sometimes it really do be that way, you know?]

Then at least part of my work's done! ...And if you have trouble coping, consider me a possible avenue of help however you need it. I'll buy you a nice lunch, hold your hand, whatever you need. Just call.

Ah, you don't have to go as far as buying me lunch...

[Huffs!]

But anyways, I'm grateful someone like you is around, Father. It's nice.
