first ☕✨ video

( The doctor may be recognizable to some here already, or as one of the longer-term dancers during the festival or someone repeatedly pulled into the compatibility booths giggling up a storm because she was ticklish. (Or that fiendish person who posted up five different people on the moonlace partnering app.) Today she's donning a warm little smile, a sunny dress, and a white lab coat, even if she's woefully missing a stethoscope about her collar.

And no more deer traits in sight, thankfully; considerably more put together. (Also thankfully.) The apartment behind her is just as sunny and accented in golds and dark blues, tidy and cozy with blankets visible over the arm of the sofa and some other chair to the side. )


Good afternoon everyone; I'm Dr. Angela Ziegler, one of many who appeared on the moon and were brought back to Prismatica here, having since settled in. I hope this finds everyone well. It's been a tumultuous few weeks already, hasn't it? It seems with the more prominent moons having faded back out, we'll have some margin of relief. That is why I wanted to post, however.

I realize many who were brought here may not be comfortable bringing their concerns up with the officials or scientists here. I was approached by quite a few people through the last few phases seeking help and I thought I would turn that offer outward. I'm not a general practitioner, exactly, as my specialties lie more in trauma and restorative surgery, but I've done a vast amount of work across multiple specialties and general care, and I was a Chief Medical Officer for a peacekeeping organization for some years as well. It should be plenty.

I can't begin to fathom how the moons may affect everyone going forward nor will I know the extent of what is possible or "normal" until I've seen it enough times in others, but I can at least offer some form of reassurance or a medical record of sorts to see what has changed or ensure you're all right. If anyone would like me to check in on them around the expected time, I can do that as well.

( Presuming she's able to leave the house herself, during the Iris phase. Last time was... well. She attempted a self-quarantine from how intense it had hit, not wanting to bother the public or be bothered by the public. Fingers crossed it isn't always that way. )

I may consider a clinic of sorts if our situation here leans toward something semi-permanent, but until then it is something I would either pick a friend's empty apartment for or make a house call. All we can do is try to keep an eye out for one another, and treat each other well.

Thank you for the moment of your time, and if anyone has any questions, I'll keep an eye on replies here for a bit, or you are welcome to message me privately. I would also appreciate if anyone feels comfortable telling me what they've experienced here so I can help apply it to others.

( She's taking a sip of her coffee and about to wave some little toodle-loo goodbye just as someone's footsteps sound to the side and she clicks off the feed with a slight brightening of the eyes. Probably the reason she doesn't do it out of her apartment!

Feel free to hit her with zany medical Q&A, relay your own experiences to help build her Prismatica Side Effects journal, or just come chat because she looks nice! As an aside, please feel free to assume characters from the new round saw this / feel free to reply! #timing... )

[Hanzo's alone in his apartment and fresh out of bed so he's naked, but not showing anything below his chest out of common courtesy. He doesn't know if other people can see this video or not.]

First, I thank you for your help that first time. You were very patient with me, and kinder than I deserved. [He's admitting he may have been a TOUCH dramatic.]

I do have another question for you though, Dr. Ziegler. We know for certain that after a period of time we return to normal, but do we know if the changes will be the same and predictable each time? It is a lot less of a hassle if they are things we can plan for or plan around.

I have a couple of questions.

Would you be able to guarantee complete privacy if we come to you with an emergency? And am I right in assuming that you're likely quite limited in access to medical equipment right now?

So far? A lot of annoyance mostly.

[That's mostly just Eva disliking this whole heat thing though.]

[While Vanitas isn't necessarily interested in going to anyone else for advice on his own moonphase symptoms, he is intrigued by the idea of getting information from another doctor.

... Well. Someone who seems to be a "legitimate" doctor, anyway.]


From what I've been able to tell the changes people experience seem to range from barely noticeable to quite extreme, including things that seem to actually alter the genetic makeup of their bodies- even if temporarily. Between that and the fact that the very nature of someone's chemistry could already be different than that of a person from your own world would you really be able to gauge what "all right" is?

A noble endevor indeed. I would be happy to lend my experiences to building such a database, what exactly are you specifically looking for?
