Response to your comment: you're raising boys Jusis, so I recommend reading up on what you don't know. Better they hear this stuff from you than getting it from some random tiktok.
Yep! Or at least, it was my try and true method in high school. I went to a military school, where asking out another guy had a more than zero chance of getting the crap beat out of me, sooooo....yeah! I had to come up with something.
A valid point, though I get the distinct impression that all the reading in the world won't prepare me for certain questions. I've mostly been asking my mother for advice when I could.

Elliot. I ask this with all the respect I have for you.
True, but it helps! If you'd like, I can give you some of the child reading books I got when I was taking care of Hunter. Though admittedly, a lot of those are more about...dealing with trauma, since he had...a lot going on.
[So so so much]
....Yeaaaah I don't know how to respond to that question without it getting depressing. Let's just say military school REALLY isn't the same when you don't have a class like Class VII...or any physical capability.

The comment: you're expecting a lot from Rean, who is oblivious, and I, who has never dated.
The question: is that really how allosexuals handle that?
[He's being genuine with that question, at least.]

[Heaven knows Jusis will have to brace himself before diving into any that deal with childhood trauma.]
No, I imagine not. A talk for another day, perhaps, if you feel comfortable.
[He's trying to make an effort to really know this Elliot, the good and the bad.]

Sure! I'll bring them over next time I visit.
[Which will be soon with how fussy he's been lately]
Yeah, one day. Though having alcohol during that talk wouldn't go amiss...
[Look he's trying to open up, really. But man. Not good memories]
