Ah... Thank you. I'm sorry if that was too formal, but I wasn't sure how to begin a conversation like this.

Have you ever transformed into anything resembling a rabbit?

Edited 2022-07-04 12:41 (UTC)

[It's probably a good thing this is a text conversation, or Momo raising his eyebrows at that message would probably be audible.

The first thing that comes back in response to the text is a photo of Momo laying back on his couch, one hand curled as if like a cat and one fuzzy leg bent upwards so it's in view. Between that and the giant rabbit ears and wings, the answer to that is probably obvious enough.]

I don't know, you tell me (*´艸｀)

[Please don't mind him taking more than a few moments to look at that picture. 70% to take in the details of the transformation, and the other 30% hazily split between his collar and pose.]

You look so different from me!

[Sending over a picture of himself really isn't that embarrassing now that Momo's done so first. It's only from his torso up, but it's enough to capture the rabbit ears that match his hair colour, a pair of large, feathery wings, and faint whiskers.]

I'm rather concerned, since I have experience transforming into a rabbit... But it hasn't happened here before now, so I wanted to ask you about the side effects, if you know of any.

[Momo usually expects Sougo to take his time looking at pictures, so he might maybe be tabbing out to one of his mobile games while he waits for the next reply.]

Aww, you look cute~~

That was that transformation you didn't like from Lunatia, right~? ( ◞･౪･)
I turned into this first last month, when those weird spirits were flying around, so I think it's new. Internet says it's called a skvader, but there are variants with other names too ┐(´∇｀)┌
I felt more mischievous the first time around? But that hasn't happened this time...I do feel a bit more jumpy than usual, though. And there's obvious rabbit stuff like jumping higher and hearing better...
...and honestly, I think there might be a bit of the other obvious thing rabbits are associated with, too (*´ω｀*)

[Which he thinks might be what Sougo is worried about, though Momo hasn't found his sex drive too bad in this form. It is just noticeably higher than usual.]

Ah... Thank you very much.

[Momo thinks he looks cute.... Momo thinks he looks cute?! It's all the ears and not anything about Sougo himself, he's sure, but he'll take it (and store it away in his memory for safekeeping, just because).]

A skvader? I did a search for it just now, but I'll look into it more thoroughly later. Thank you for simplifying this for me.

I haven't been in this form for long, and all of the side effects you mentioned are about what I was expecting... but yes, you're right. I'm surprised you remember.

It's not that I didn't like the transformation itself! Rabbits are cute, after all, and having ears and a tail didn't interfere with my daily life. But if you recall what I told you about Iris...

[Not that he revealed everything during their last conversation, but insisting that "the Iris cycle was truly mortifying" should give Momo some idea of what Sougo's talking about.]

Having an urge to mate shouldn't be a problem as long as it's manageable.

Momo-chan always remembers important information~ (*・∀-)☆

[More like he has a memory like a steel trap for embarrassing things and blackmail material.]

I do remember~~
I just wondered if there was something about the rabbit part itself that made it worse since you're texting me about it ☆⌒(*’艸＾*)

It's pretty manageable, I haven't had much trouble with it...
Besides, we're probably both used to keeping that sort of thing under wraps anyway *:ﾟ*｡⋆ฺ(*´◡`)

[The callout is real.]

You're as sharp as ever, Momo-san.

Well, yes... Just hearing that is enough to put me at ease. Managing standard urges isn't a problem, after all.

[The callout is definitely real, but it's much easier to talk about having natural human urges than reference basically going into heat. ]

I'd rather die than divulge everything about Iris, but for the sake of clarity, there were times of the month that I was unable to leave my apartment. Pheromones weren't the only side effect, but... I can easily deal with this much. It seems like a nice transformation, from the way you describe it.

So then, if it wasn't the pheromones, it was you being so horny you couldn't leave your apartment? (✿˘艸˘✿)

[Because of course Momo can read between lines and then just say it in so many words. If he's not concerned about "this much" sex drive and it's not just pheromones that kept him in, Momo is definitely drawing that link.]

It definitely hasn't been that bad for me yet, but I feel like I have heard about certain transformations having...well, mating seasons, basically?
I don't think it's consistent though, either that or I've gotten super lucky and never turned into anything that has a mating season during it ┐(´∇｀)┌

To be completely transparent... partially. I could mostly get by when just Iris was active, but when all three cycles were active at once, it was better for both myself and others to stay indoors. You can probably imagine the rest.

However, as far as mating seasons go... Depending on the severity and what else it brings, I'm a little concerned. But I haven't heard anyone mention any horrible stories, so maybe it'll be alright.

I'm glad that this hasn't been a bad transformation for you. It figures that we would both turn into rabbits (or something resembling them) at some point.

When you look like this, your cute side has a different appeal.

Right, I bet there were people mounting each other all over the place... (+･艸･+)(+･艸･+)

[Maybe a slight exaggeration, but considering how Sougo talks about Lunatia, Momo wouldn't be surprised.]

I feel like at least one person would've brought it up if it was that bad, yeah
And we don't have multiple groups of people trying to mate all at once as far as I know (*≧艸≦)

Sougo, are you trying to flatter me all of a sudden~~
Should I be expecting a special request?? ☆｡ﾟ+.(人-ω◕ฺ)ﾟ+.ﾟ

That's, um... I'll admit that the boundary between normality and prurience was blurred during those times, but you're assuming an awful lot...

The transformations were lewder in some respects, but as a whole, it wasn't that different from here. Making bonds and syncing was necessary, so it was unavoidable.

[This man is trying so hard. But more importantly:]

Momo-san?! I don't know what type of request you're referring to, but I assure you that it couldn't be further from my mind!

Probably!

[Once again: this man is trying so hard.]

So people were only mounting each other in a few places~? (*´艸｀)

[Considering Sougo's apparently not prepared to entirely deny the notion, Momo is going to keep right on assuming. Not to mention that there's plenty of times here where people are about an inch away from taking each other in the street.]

Well, you text me about a transformation that's similar to the one you had in that even more questionable world than this one, we start talking about mating seasons, and then you start up with the flattery...
For someone who doesn't like me to make assumptions, I'm not sure you're trying very hard to not give me a foundation to ( ◞･౪･)

[Look, it's not that he doesn't like Momo to make assumptions. Those assumptions just tend to be... you know. The type of thing to strike Sougo down on the spot.]

I'm sorry. I don't want to confuse you, so I'll state things more clearly.

1. Given what you know about Lunatia and the conversations we've had about me not needing to be embarrassed, I messaged you with completely innocent intentions.

2. Mating seasons are connected to Iris, which is why I took an interest in you mentioning them.

3. Complimenting you comes naturally to me. Even here, I can't push my long-time fan mentality aside... Please let me know if it makes you uncomfortable.

[That makes total sense, right? Right. But after a solid few minutes of thinking over every possible consequence or response he may receive, Sougo finally manages to add one more line.]

4. While all of this is true, I can't say that I would be upset with any conclusion you draw.

[This is why it's always beneficial to troll Sougo - because he gets reactions like this.]

Sougo, you're still taking me too seriously all the time~~
It's cute, but I know all that already, I was just teasing ☆⌒(*’艸＾*)

You're getting bolder, though, so that's good!! I don't think you would've dared to add that fourth line to me back when we arrived (੭ु˙꒳˙)੭ु⁾⁾

Am I? I still have a long way to go, but it's easier to be bolder through text.

Is it something I should actively try to improve?

[Hold on, give him another few seconds to contemplate his life choices.]

From this message on, I'll be a bolder version of myself.

I've told you to be bolder before, haven't I~?
It helps with being more honest, too, because then you can be brave enough to say what you're thinking instead of just letting it simmer ☆｡ﾟ+.(人-ω◕ฺ)ﾟ+.ﾟ

So, what kind of bold moves are you going to be making now that you've decided to make that dramatic life change? (｡ˇ艸ˇ)

For the sake of my sanity, I'm going to commit through the end of this text conversation.

[Okay, this can't be that hard. Confidence, bravery... He has to start off with something strong to show he's serious!]

I want to sync with you again.

Good start, good start~~
What type of Syncing are you asking about here? There's such a range that you have to be clear about what it is you're interested in *:ﾟ*｡⋆ฺ(*´◡`)

It depends on what you and Yuki-san would be okay with, so let me ask you first.

Where do you draw the line? I'll elaborate after this, but I would never do something you weren't comfortable with.

Under normal circumstances? Kissing, since that's the most anything short of an emergency tends to need here (*´ｪ｀*)
We have an understanding about Manna emergencies and/or getting smacked with horny magic, but that's not normal circumstances, obviously~

Thank you for making the details of your partnership clear.

I'm going to kiss you.

So determined~~
Have you been kissing many others lately? Momo-chan needs to know what kind of experience level to expect when this happens (*・∀-)☆

I'd like to think I'm fairly experienced, though I've generally had the same partner ever since the others left.

It's more comfortable to settle into a familiar routine, after all. But I've had ample practice outside of that.

Tamaki, I'm guessing~?
I don't see a lot of him myself, so it's good to know that he's being taken care of (*´艸｀)

A lot of the people I was close enough to to Sync with more regularly disappeared around when a lot of the people from our world did, too, but I've made some new friends since then （。＞ω＜）。

It's my job as his partner to ensure that he's taken care of. I don't know if I would be able to forgive myself if he ran into trouble due to low manna.

But you know Tamaki-kun. He's the affectionate type, so now that I've become more comfortable with physical contact, he's taken to leaning against me pretty often.

I'm glad that you've met new people, Momo-san. You're so outgoing that I'm sure it's no trouble for you.
