[He clicks his tongue]

It's not about permission. It's about communication. Bad Dragon's not...cheap. So you should talk to your partner about what they're open to before you waste that kinda money.

[It's not a strange concept??? Communication is good??

He looks over at Akira.]

- Whaaaat?

[fabrefactions]

... You... know a surprising amount about this company, Elliot.

[ Did you want to share with the class?

...

UM. ]

That's an odd question. In the case of the two of you, perhaps sharing the experience is the better option...?

[maskreant]

It would, but I would want to tease him a bit.

[ Elliot, if you think you're safe, you're wrong. Akira just needs an answer for this question first. He has Vengeance to take because someone decided to hide their wounds from him. ]

It's not us, so pick one or the other.

[ A LIE, BUT. He's back to his normal, even sheepish, look... All a facade. ]

[fiddlestick]

I-I've never ordered from them! It'd just come up a lot in music forums.

[ Gay teenage band members be thirsty. He squirms a little, unsure about answering this question]

Um....the latter...?

[fabrefactions]

I suppose there is a connection between music and... this somewhere, but I don't really see it.

[ Hmm. Yusuke is not answering this question. He has done his time. ]

[maskreant]

I don't, either.

[ A music forum is a strange place to see a discussion about xeno-themed dildos?

OR IS THAT JUST HIM? ]

[fiddlestick]

Haha, well ... bandgeeks don't get many dates, you know? So you get enough teenage bandgeeks together and...

Well, you know, stuff like this comes up.

[fabrefactions]

... yet they know what bad dragon is.

[ This is literally all he needs to say. Probably. ]

[maskreant]

... I guess they can dream about purchasing one.

[ Even now, Akira wouldn't buy bad dragon since it is very pricey. He will stick to some normal stuff from Amazon for the sake of his wallet, thanks. ]

Wouldn't it be easier to date each other?

[fiddlestick]

W-Well, yeah. It is something you can find on google...

[He has no idea how many actually bought the stuff. For all he knows, it was just teenagers talking about that stuff to come off as cool or adult or whatever.

Akira that's...what's such a sweet answer]

A couple do that, sure? But...a lot weren't really socially skilled enough to ask people out. O-Or in cases like mine, they weren't out to their families. That makes dating pretty difficult if you live with them.

R-Really though I don't know if anyone actually bought the stuff. Just talked about it.

[fabrefactions]

It would require a rather specific search though...

[ Elliot, you dark horse you. ]

I... suppose there are always reasons why people hesitate. It is a shame though that these are things that must be considered when it comes to relationships between the same gender.

[ His... mother just doesn't care. Maybe "doesn't care" isn't the right phrasing, but if Yusuke is happy and with someone who cares for him, she's happy. ]

[maskreant]

[ Oh, no... While Akira never had to deal with his parents caring about his sexuality (they are okay of his love for both men and women), he does feel for those that feel that they can’t be truly themselves. It may not define them as a whole, but it is a part of them. ]

The world is slowly changing for the better.

[ Look at them!!! Three boyfriends! Though Akira would date Goro even if he was a girl. No big deal. He wants to direct the conversation again, but asking Elliot if he owns toys of his own is

Out of line. ]

So how did it go with Sanji on Saturday, Yusuke?

[ NEW TARGET ]

[fiddlestick]

Y-Yeah, little by little.

[he smiles and nods at Akira's statement. With his own aunt and uncle, it was..complicated. They've never said anything overtly homophobic, but Elliot already struggled with living up to their expectations. Telling them that he was gay just felt like one more way he'd come up short to them. It was easier not to say anything.

Buuut that's a topic that'd really bring them all down if he went into it, so he'll gladly jump on the topic change]

Oh yeah! You haven't told us anything.

[fabrefactions]

[ Oh. This is where they are now. They have arrived at this point, where Yusuke is the target.

Uh oh. ]

Fine? I'm not sure what there is to tell.

[ That isn't personal and intimate and not necessarily up for sharing at this point without some gentle wheedling and coaxing... He looks directly at Akira: ]

How did finishing up the treehouse go?

[ It's like a tennis volley. ]

[maskreant]

I got to show it to Goro on the same day. He really liked it and we stargazed through the moon roof—cutting some of the tree branches to get a better view was a good idea.

[ A moonlit night was pretty nice! And there’s no crack in his composure, either. There is no reason to indicate he stayed the night and got back home before Elliot woke up and Yusuke returned.

No problem. ]

How are things with Eren, Elliot? Did he get any Bad Dragon packages, too?

[ Sorry. ]

[fiddlestick]

[........You guys are the worst. He'll look between them.]

...Why did Yusuke get a mild question while I got that?

[CALLING YOU PEOPLE OUT]

[fabrefactions]

[ Yusuke just kinda shrugs. ]

I'm not sure. Luck of the proverbial draw?

[ HE DID NOTHING WRONG....! ]

[maskreant]

You've been with Eren longer than we've been with our boyfriends? Combined...?

[ It seems like a reasonable answer! It also takes the heat off of him and Yusuke.

Mostly him. ]

[fiddlestick]

Huh? T-that's not true though. I mean it is for Yusuke, but Eren and I have only been a couple since late September. I was pretty sure you and Goro have been together longer.

So...you might have more experience than I do. With...that stuff, anyway.

[Attempt backfired. Enjoy that burning heat]

[maskreant]

But you've known Eren for a long time, right? I only knew Goro in passing until the app brought us together.

[ YOU THINK HE DIDN'T HAVE A BACKUP PLAN ]

Though the question is if knowing someone long before dating them would accelerate the other parts of dating?

[fiddlestick]

Well, yeah, since I was 14. But we never talked about dating or stuff like that...I saved that for my other friends.

[...]

Uh, well, good question. When was you and Goro's, um, first time?

[maskreant]

[ ..........................

IT HAS BEEN A MONTH AND HE'S STILL HYPERVENTILATING ON THE INSIDE AND HE FEELS LIGHTHEADED LIKE HE'LL FAINT ANY SECOND FROM EMBARRASSMENt because he really fucked that up somehow.

He really did.

100% fucked that up, but Goro deserved it. God. When he talked to Yosuke (over text), he said he would never have this conversation. In Person. Here he is. Regretting his choices. ]

Same night Yusuke went to Sanji's.

[fabrefactions]

[ This is your life, Akira.

In the background, Yusuke is taking a cooling and refreshing drink of water as his friend speaks — a cooling and refreshing drink he immediately begins to choke on when Akira reveals the fabled get he and Goro finally got over their fears and did the sexes.

Give him a moment here. ]

[fiddlestick]

[Elliot meanwhile is also caught off guard. Not that Akira had sex, but no if anything he was expecting it to be at a much earlier date.

And he wasn't expecting it to be on the same night as-]

Whaaaaaat??

T-The same night?!

[maskreant]

... Well.

[ HELLO? The last thing he needs is for both of you to... Do this. He can feel the stares, then there's Elliot's audible questioning. He isn't sure if he's sweating bullets or he's going pale and cold. ]

Yeah. What's... Wrong?

[ STOP. ]
