[his fire burns low, partially from the rain and partially because he's neglected it even though he specifically lit it to make tea. instead, he's spent a good deal of time after the mysterious message played pacing back and forth in the rain--if the mud trail he's blazed in front of his shelter is anything to be judged--but he pays it no mind and

Burn the flowers? [Ammy's ears perk. She covers her nose with her sleeve just in case.] I had not thought of that.

[Her ears droop, and she hangs her head.] Doctor, I am sorry I did not believe you, I could not remember that I was supposed to be female.

[bit_impossible]

No need for apologies, Amaterasu! You're not the only one who couldn't remember. Have to say, though, I like you in this form better. Suits you well!

[celestial_okami]

You think so? [She cocks her head, thinking on this.] I think I will miss being able to wear less when it was hot without causing problems. But I like this form better as well. People were very strange when I was male.

[bit_impossible]

Oh yes, I do.

But how were they strange? Besides asking questions about why you were a male and not a female? Must've gotten a lot of those!

[celestial_okami]

Yes, apparently my male form was more appealing? I am not entirely sure, but I believe that several people were rather attracted to it. I was not entirely prepared with how to handle it.

[bit_impossible]

No, I imagine you weren't. That's not your most average thing you'll find on an alien world. Probably the first side-effect like that that I've encountered before.

[celestial_okami]

I think...I think I may have done something I should not have, but I do not know. I am not sure what I should do about it now, however.

[bit_impossible]

May I ask what that might have been?

[celestial_okami]

[She fiddles with the sodden hem of her sleeve.] I had sex with someone without fully understanding what I was doing. I only knew that I was trying to help, and that seemed to be the way to help. But now I am not sure if what I did was the right thing, and knowing this makes me unhappy.

[bit_impossible]

[blinks at that for a second. that wasn't what he was expecting!] Ah. Well...[rubs the back of his head] If your intentions were good, it can't be all bad, yeah? Might make you feel better if you spoke to, uh, the other person about what you're feeling.

[celestial_okami]

Possibly, but they already blame themselves for what happened. I do not think it would make anything better even if I were to speak with them about it. I have never dealt with anything such as this before, I am not sure what to do, but perhaps speaking with them is the only way to resolve this after all.

[bit_impossible]

[smiles encouragingly] You never know until you try. There's firsts for everything in life! I keep on experiencing new things everyday. Like...I've never been to this planet before! Haven't even heard of it before we crashed and I've been travelling for a very long time.

[celestial_okami]

[She smiles, her tail wagging a little.] That is very true.

[bit_impossible]

Give it a shot! What's there to lose, right?

[celestial_okami]

Hmmm, I am not sure, but I will do my best.

[bit_impossible]

Have faith in yourself, goddess.
