[ Oh. Right. Of course he'd brought up the card while under such influence.
Siegfried won't pretend like he's completely comfortable with the idea of the A5 card, but that isn't Jean's fault at all.
Actually, the direct way with which Jean approaches him is probably the best case scenario. He offers him an out, too, which is commendable. ]
Heh. I should have realized that's what this was about. They really have a way of making one lose all shame, don't they? I do hope I wasn't too unsightly towards you that evening.
[ Not unsightly enough that Jean was too bothered by it, at least, so that's promising. ]
[ But also the only person who's offered so far and thus the only available option at the moment, in Jean's eyes, if he wants to actually work toward some decent living conditions in this bitch ass barren place. He's too shy to initiate on his own with someone else. The thought of having sex is slightly daunting but if he thinks of it as a necessity in this world, the pragmatic side of him can accept it. ]
-- Why did you think I sent you this message? Hold on.
[ 20 minutes of fiddling later, he sends the card. Thankfully not feet pics ]
Can we pretend the evening never happened and not speak of it again?
[ He doesn't have too much pride to ask that. His eyes widen as he scans over Jean's card. The Augus really gave him a challenge, didn't they? He then sends his own back. ]
You have some interesting squares. I'd prefer to start simple, if that's alright. I have yet to fulfill any of mine.
It's one of the simpler ones. I don't know how being burnt while you're getting it on is going to be fun for anyone. And I certainly ain't begging or putting on a skirt.
That probably wouldn't be a good idea, seeing as how my bathroom is barely functional. I can't imagine yours is in any better shape, if you haven't crossed off any of your squares yet.
There is a bathhouse that would suit our purposes, if you're okay with meeting there.
[ The bathtubs they have in their houses are ... pretty nasty, but Jean's bathed in watering holes so he doesn't actually have many complaints. This sounds like a better idea, though. It might even be enjoyable.]
I have been wanting to try out those baths. They're the only nice thing here.

Would you like to exchange squares?

I don't know what half of those things mean. [ But he'll look at Siegfried's now, and he ... still doesn't know what half of these squares mean. ]
I guess water would just be ... doing it in the bath.

Is that the one you would like to do? It seems simple enough.

So which of mine are we crossing out?
