If you had to describe the three moons and their respective cycles with a single word, how would you describe them?

And please tell me that Iris isn't the 'sex moon'.




[This next bit is sent as a private message, specifically directed at anyone who he came across while he was under the moon's effects.]

I am so, so sorry for what happened. I had heard stories, but I didn't know it would be as bad as it was.

I'll be taking precautions in the future, but if there's anything I can do to make up for what already happened then please let me know.

[tigerpoet]

Hmmph. I'll allow it. But I'm not good company.

[Even for an Atsushi, and Atsushis are really the only people he willingly comes out for.]

[moonlightalter]

I'm not good company either, so we can be not-good-company together.

[tigerpoet]

[doubt, but also]

If you have to.

[moonlightalter]

[SMILE SMILE]

Have you ever had this before?

[It's a box of pocky.]

[tigerpoet]

No, but I've seen it in stores. Chocolate?

[moonlightalter]

It's covered in chocolate, yes.

[Here, he's offering Inner a stick of pocky.]

[tigerpoet]

[Accepting the pocky and taking a bite-]

This is even better.

[moonlightalter]

Mhmm! And there's a game you can play with it too.

[tigerpoet]

Aren't you too old to play with your food?

[moonlightalter]

Technically this is a snack, first off. Secondly, it's supposed to be played with two people, so it's different.

[tigerpoet]

Hm. What are the rules?

[Already determined to Win.]

[moonlightalter]

Each person takes one end of the stick into their mouth, and they eat towards the middle. The person who lets go first loses.

[He's totally glossing over the fact that these games usually end in kissing.]

[tigerpoet]

[Tiger grabs another stick of pocky and puts one end in his mouth.

Come and get it so he can crush you, Atsushi.]

[moonlightalter]

[Good luck, Inner. Atsushi steps up right away to take the other end in his mouth.

By the way he has never played this before and only knows about it from his animes. Expect him to lose his nerve soon.]

[tigerpoet]

[Inner's competitiveness will destroy him, then, because he's eating away without fear or hesitation. Kissing? Who cares about that when he is winning.]

[moonlightalter]

[Ok but the real question is what he's going to do once they reach the middle of the pocky stick. Because they get about even and it's going to be a tie unless he does something, as Atsushi plans on leaving it as a light, innocent kiss if Inner doesn't break away or do something worse.]

[tigerpoet]

[Inner surges forward, taking larger and more aggressives bites than usual. His plan is to intimidate Atsushi into surrendering.

Stillll not thinking about the kissing aspects.]

[moonlightalter]

[The aggressiveness does startle Atsushi a bit, so much so that be accidentally bites down and breaks the pocky stick entirely. Whoops. He was also not in the middle yet, so it's technically his loss.]

[tigerpoet]

[A fact Inner does not hesitate to rub in:]

I won.

[moonlightalter]

Y-you sure did...

[He can't even point out what the point of the game was, because he's quickly losing his nerve.]

Do you like pocky, then?

[tigerpoet]

It's not bad. Especially with the taste of victory.

[tbh he was way more concerned with Winning than actually enjoying the food]

[moonlightalter]

[Inner plz]

You're one who likes to win, I take it?

[tigerpoet]

Of course. What kind of fool likes to lose?

[moonlightalter]

I-I wouldn't say I like it, but I don't mind when I lose. It's nice, to see the other person happy.

[tigerpoet]

Hm. Can't relate.

[maybe if he played the pocky game with his other half but-]
