If you're fine, then it's your choice. If it were me, it would probably give me a weird relationship with sex.

Well....weirder.

No, I mean... I actually don't know the answer, you could be right. I just don't feel anything other than the biological side of it. Killing them is part of the release for me since they're usually people that have done really bad things. If it doesn't feel good because I feel used or something like that.. well, that rarely happens and I can only blame myself. And besides, I get back at them at the end, anyway.

As for people here on this boat, though... mmm... I guess I wouldn't say in such a scenario that I don't want to sleep with them if I'm looking for stress release or something to do.

Just making sure you're taking care of yourself.

Thanks, but I think you don't have to worry about this one. I don't usually have sex unrelated to my marks to feel anything or get stress relief. I just do it to stop thinking.

So sex is either just work or stress relief...

...I mean, isn't that one of the reasons why you have sex with multiple people here? To feel good and get the biological stress relief? I understand the idea you are attracted to only certain people to do that with, but...

[ what else do people get out of sex with people they aren't romantically involved with. ]

[ Please hold, something is going on in that fluffy head of his ]

[ ???? ]

Any suggestions for activities I could host?

[Holds up a notepad and pen, waving them a little]

Did I offend you?

What would I have to be offended about?

...

This is exactly what you did last time I brought up your sex life and said I made you feel like a whore. Should I just assume you feel like that again?

[Gently taps the top of Sam's head with the notebook, right between the ears]

I don't feel that way again. I was just thinking I'm glad I'm able to provide my friends some stress relief during these trying times.

[ reflective whine from his throat like hitting with the book is the same as a squeak toy bring squeezed.

...oh. there's no way that's it, either. ]

... You sure? ... It's not because of what I just said and us having had sex somehow or anything?

I'm sure, I'm sure~ Don't worry about it.

[Sets the notebook aside and sits up on the bed on his knees]

[ exhales slowly in relief. ]

...Okay, good. But, just in case... that was an exception.

[Visibly deflates, the fight leaving him, shoulders no longer squared up or back straight as a board]

Oh.

... [ sits up now before moving to reach out and pull Jewel back into an embrace from behind, his tails moving to hug around him as well. ]

Sorry, I spoke insensitively before.

...I'm sorry too. I was letting my experiences color your experiences in my mind. If you're fine, then it's fine.

[ can't help but laugh a little now. ]

Sorry, are you like giving me permission to sleep around or something~?

Where did I put that notebook...

[ wait seriously?

Forget if it was actual permission or not but he didn't even know they qualified for hypothetical permission from each other??

That can't be right that makes no sense in Sam's head. Why would Jewel even care about that??

He'll embrace him a little tighter. ]

Shadi, talk to me. I'm teasing you here, but... you do know I'm not actually interested in doing that, right? It was just hypothetical randomness. So, what I really want to know is what are you apologizing for and why are you telling me it's fine to go do that if I want to?

[Makes an annoyed little grumble but leans into the hold as opposed to away from it]

I'm just....saying I'll do better not to stick my nose into your business so much. Or rather, I'll work to assume you're managing better than I would if it were me. Not measure you by my ruler? Something like that.

[ his tails brush against Jewel's cheeks and hair. ]

You were sticking your nose in my business how, exactly? Being worried for me?

Well......yeah?
