zebra-handling; 12Fold; legend of five rings(?!?)
For those of you who follow L5R continuity, here's my most concise advice for dealing with me:
Less Dragon. Less Phoenix. Less Crane. More Crab.
And of course, in 12Fold terms, that's "Less Mercurian, More Martian." How much do YOU think tigers like being caged and analysed? Even when they deserved it? At least have the decency to roar and bop our noses a little. :)

(Naturally, if you're Neptunian, you get a free pass, because the most alienating thing I've ever seen an otter do is form a hugpile. And being mutated by weird deep-sea symbiotic spores is not *technically* "alienation.")

@zebratron2084 all this time, I've never asked--what are Jovians like? 'cause that's where I'm nominally from, and so far most such things have fit me a little too closely for comfort (holy shit I am such a Sagittarius it isn't even funny, also Year of the Pig yep lol)

Which also reminds me: "zen" approaches work well. i.e., DON'T ACCEPT THE FRAMEWORK. Distraction, humor, paradox, abrupt changes of frame... and if you're going to tell me that you don't feel like my feelings are valid, I CAN TAKE IT, but only in proportion to how much authority I feel is being copped over me. You'd be amazed how far you can get with me with "Kin? Do you need to go walkies?!?" Less clinic, more schoolyard. Smile when you say it.
