They told us about male and female sexual intercourse and went over different methods of protection.

Why?

[ You have far too much faith in your little brother, Natsuo. ]

[seaandsummer]

[He sighs.]

Okay. Do I need to go over same-sex sex with you? Or was what they told you enough?

[He doesn't know what his brother likes... but he doesn't want to give his brother the talk either.]

And if you have any questions at all, I'm probably the best person to ask, since this is my field. And... I ... yeah.

[He vaguely motions to his number.]

[swellter]

[ Shouto doesn't know what he likes either. ]

They told us to use protection no matter the gender.

[ Basically, it was glossed over and he doesn't know enough to know he needs to ask questions or else he would. ]

[seaandsummer]

[Another sigh.]

Well, that's good. But, just come to me if you have any questions. About sex, relationships, and stuff. I'm here for you bud.

[He ruffles Shouto's hair and offers a smile that's a little embarrassed.]

Anything health-related, I'll do my best for you.

[ He stiffens underneath his hand, not out of fear but surprise. He's only recently become close to his siblings and he hasn't yet gotten used to the casual gestures of affection. ]

2/2

[swellter]

[ Soon, he relaxes feeling something warm in his chest thaw and he smiles, simple and sweet, glad that he has someone to confide in. ]

Thank you, Natsuo.

[seaandsummer]

[That smile makes Natsuo's heart swell with joy.]

So... [He takes a breath, this will be awkward, but it was family.]

Make sure you talk to me before you turn that zero into a one, okay?

[swellter]

[ He looks up at him, waiting for him to say his piece, and... it's not something he expected. Is he asking him... ]

Right now?

[seaandsummer]

When you're ready. One thing I learned from psychology class is that forcing conversations doesn't help. Well, sometimes it does, but more times than not it doesn't.

And to be honest? I'm not sure I'm ready to have that conversation either.

[swellter]

You're not forcing me.

[ He knew what that felt like. This. It was nice, even if he felt there was something he was missing. ]

Even when you're already at four. Is that not enough?

[seaandsummer]

[That makes him laugh.]

I mean I don't know if I'm ready to give it.

[He looks up at his 'four'] I got the talk from one of our father's associates. They were nice. They impressed on my and neesan on how we had to be careful about who we dated because they might want to get at him. Or ride his coattails. They meant well, but it sucked hearing it.
