Good afternoon. To introduce myself, I'm Omi Fushimi. I arrived recently. I work here as a photographer.

I have some questions, though they're kind of specific to those who've become Turnskin and/or other Monsters here.

So, first of all, if you're a Turnskin, how severe were the effects on your second full moon? As you can guess, I've only just passed my first.

And second, for those who are Monsters in general, when did you decide on a Bond, or rather, how long were you here before you settled on something?

I realize these are personal. I think hearing about these might help put me at ease, so I'm grateful for even vague answers. I'm sorry to ask questions with little in return, but if anyone who responds is particularly fond of scones, I've just made a large batch.

You know, that sounds like something we'll need to be aware of in my house. I might make some extra provisions for everyone around that time.

I RECOMMEND IT! IT'LL SAVE YOU A LOT OF TIME CLEANING UP.
AND A LOT OF SHOES.

[pastregrets]

Considering I only have one pair of shoes at the moment, I'll definitely take your advice!

You didn't eat the shoes, did you?

[What? It's a legitimate question.]

[spaghettimonster]

. . .
MOSTLY I JUST CHEWED ON THEM.

[Yes, it's a very legitimate question.]

[pastregrets]

[RIP his teeth, Omi thinks.]

You really needed something to eat. Something chewy might be better. Great input, thanks!

[spaghettimonster]

[It's fine. His fangs were still coming in. He got a lot of ripping and tearing practice in with those shoes.]

YES, PLEASE LEARN FROM MY MISTAKES.

BUT! ON THE BRIGHTSIDE! IF YOU GET PAWS, YOU MIGHT NOT NEED SHOES AGAIN.

[pastregrets]

Do you need something to chew on next time? I'm good at cooking, so maybe I can come up with something for people...

Well, paws are practical like that, aren't they? Not that I really want them. I'd like to be able to use my hands normally, at the very least.

[spaghettimonster]

OH, THANK YOU FOR OFFERING!
BUT I HAVE PLENTY. I FIGURED THAT OUT THE SECOND TIME.

I KNOW WHAT YOU MEAN.
WHEN YOU GROW UP WITH HANDS... YOU'RE SO USED TO USING THEM. THUMBS ARE GREAT.
YOU MIGHT BE OUT OF LUCK ON THE FULL MOON.
BUT MOST OF THE TIME, MY HANDS ARE MUCH HANDSIER THAN MY FEET.

[pastregrets]

Thumbs really are underappreciated. But I can see if you suddenly didn't have them, you'd definitely miss them.

I think I'll just document everything and take people's advice to heart. As much as I'm unsure about it all, it's not like I have a choice. I'd rather not be dangerous, if it can be helped.

PEOPLE WITH PINCERS CAN STILL PINCER GRASP...
BUT IMAGINE MISSING THE CHANCE TO GIVE PEOPLE A COOL THUMBS UP. TERRIBLE.

ANYWAY, THAT SOUNDS LIKE GOOD THINKING!
TAKING NOTES, AND REFERRING TO THEM IN TIMES OF CONFUSION...
I THINK YOU'LL FIND, ANYBODY CAN BE DANGEROUS, IF THEY FORGET THEMSELVES.
MONSTERS, WITCHES, OR OTHERWISE.
BUT REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE.
AND HAVE SOME PEOPLE TO HELP GROUND YOU.
IT'LL GO A LONG WAY.
