[ 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. ]
[ Luckily, Elliot starts talking again and distracts him. This was not the way anyone expected this chat to go, probably. ]
Not that I would have considered it otherwise, but that is earlier than I would have expected. But at the same time, it’s not as though you and Eren were strangers. I imagine you were comfortable with him.
[ It sure as heck is not. But whatever, if bashful Akira needs time to calm himself, he'll give it and answer Yusuke's question. ]
It was over two months! That's not that early, I-I think? [Ok he isn't sure but WHATEVER] I-It wasn't planned, it just sorta happened and we didn't have a reason to say no. And of course I'm comfortable with him.
[But now, it turns back to Yusuke]
Though uh, now that we've answered....what about you Yusuke? Did, um, anything happen that night with Sanji?
[ This is how the true bonds of brotherhood and found family start. With discussions of a personal nature. When they start comparing boyfriend dick sizes it’ll be akin to forming a blood oath. Probably. ]
If you want to ask whether or not we had sex, Elliot, I think at this point it would be less embarrassing simply to come out and say it directly.
[ After learning that Goro has been buying xenodick merchandise there can’t be much else that can phase them. ]
But yes. I suppose being coy isn’t a right now - “something” happened, to borrow your terminology.
We just devoted a large portion of our evening to discussing sex toys based off of mythical creatures. I fear nothing is taboo now. And I suppose? I do not hold much reverence to the act of sex, nor really see why people are so... worried about when they do or don’t have it. I am comfortable with Sanji, so... it was fine.
[ He's so glad that Elliot is with him in this group, only because he did wonder if maybe he went too fast with it when he spoke to Yosuke.
Anyway, speaking of Yosuke. ]
I'm asking since my friend hasn't, but they've done everything except anal. They've been with their significant other for a year, I think? But they're a little scared to go further, like they can't go back.
[ Likewise, he feels relief when Akira answers. He doesn't regret doing what he did with Eren, but oh boy is it reassuring to know someone else did the same.
But he'll listen, thinking. Huh...]
Can't go back to what exactly...?
[Is it a commitment thing? Something else?]
W-Well, there's no rule saying they have to have it. Is it bothering them that they haven't?
It’s not as though it’s a final boss... and if they’ve been together and have had sex in every other way, I’m not sure how moving on to penetrative sex would be the game changer in their relationship. The intimacy and contact would still be there...
[ What an odd fear to have. But fears are irrational, so it must make sense to Akira’s friend... ]
I’m fairly sure there must be people out there who avoid that sort of sex out of reasons related to preference and enjoyment.
I mean it is already quite a big thing to engage in sexual intimacy of the non-penetrative kind, in terms of considering your own emotional maturity and connection to your partner. Surely once you've made that first step it's a little easier?

Yeah. What's... Wrong?
[ STOP. ]
no subject
It’s a little odd to consider.
[ Did you or did you not thoroughly break in the tree house, Akira. Lewd. ]
And a very remarkable coincidence.

[ Don’t mind that he’s going to plant his face into this cushion to hide all his shame. Goodbye.
Just kill him. ]

I-It was early December for us.

He has learned more things about Elliot and Yusuke than he cared to know, but that doesn’t stop him from listening in. ]

A-aw c'mon! I don't even swear, it's not easy to say that stuff!
[RIP the last bits of Yusuke's innocence. Destroyed by a xenodick.
But oh. wow. He actually answered. And it's a yes. He wanted this information, but now he doesn't know what to do with it. ]
O-Oh, wow... so you moved the fastest of us, from the sound of it.
no subject
How far did you guys go? On your first time...
[ FOR BOTH OF THEM.
Asking for a friend who is scared of butt stuff, literally. ]
no subject
[ He just sounds content, really. D’aw.
Until Akira happens. ]
... As far as I was comfortable?
no subject
Eheh...good point. [rip taboo] That's a very "you" answer. But you're right. As long as you were comfortable with it, that's the important part.
[And then Akira happens. Oh. Wow. Guess he got over the bashful stage]
Um... [he rubs his neck] A-All the way? Is that what you mean?

B-But if you two weren't with Goro and Sanji, then.......?
