Video | UN: oceangem (dated right after triple moon)

[riptidequeen]

[She was going to try and do this anonymous, and voice to text, but instead she accidentally hit the video option.

So everyone gets a scene of a flustered looking Lapis Lazuli.]

Is it normal for the moon stuff to be so extreme? Not that I'm complaining just...

[A sigh.]

It's unexpected how bad it got.

[Sorry, Lapis. He cares a bit about you, so he's staying on track. It would be hypocritical of him to scold her for this, since he was like Lapis before, holding out until the moonblessing wears off, but-]

Which moon were you blessed with? If it's Iris, then I'd say resisting would be a terrible idea, merely for the fact that the phase immediately transitions to the triple moons period. Unless you have something to please yourself with over that long of a duration.

Regardless, I want you to know it won't be a bother to me if you ask for my help. We don't have to do anything else, we could just... cuddle.

[Ugh. Just saying that word almost made him want to blech, but nevertheless he's genuine.]

[riptidequeen]

[When he mentions Iris she makes a face, meaning he got it in one which moon she's been "blessed" with.]

I don't, and I did manage to make to almost the end of the triple moons before I uh... [She coughs awkwardly, her face flushing a darker blue.] Found a solution, and thank you but I'll be fine.

[The fact she's having a hard time even discussing this means that Soundwave should be concerned, even if Lapis is going to go hard into being fine and able to deal with it alone.]

[It is a cause of concern with how she's dancing around what this Solution is, but seeing the flush in person tells him what it might be. No wonder she's avoiding so hard saying anything about it... The indignation morphs into soft realization, and he finally backs off a bit.]

Ah... I see. My apologies, you had me worried for a moment.

[riptidequeen]

You don't need to worry about me, I can handle myself.

[He stopped trying to get her to say it so she actually relaxes now, even though she's still blushing.]

I've gone through much worse then what the moons could do to me.

[peacewithouttyranny]

Good to know, at least.

[That she can handle herself. Still, he feels bad nearly driving her into the corner, but at least he stops from prying into her experience.]

That said, my offer to help still stands. If you ever find the need to have a friend without going... ah, in that direction, we can hold hands or hug.

[riptidequeen]

[Don't worry, she's been pushed before and she knows how to push back.]

I'll keep you in mind then, Soundwave. [Gonna add him to her growing list of people willing to help out.]
