no subject
His expression softens considerably, empathetic as he looks back down to the cards, his mouth thinning.]
...Ah ...No wonder you can't tell.
[Guilt rises up at assuming as much.]
...I'm sorry. This whole thing really must be a mess of noise to you, huh.
Hey, uh... has anyone read out what's here for you? Or the pamphlet? Anything?
no subject
[None of this is Otegine’s fault or his problem, so don’t be annoying!!
Hmph.]
No, but I haven’t had a reason to care about what’s on it. Now that I know it’s scandalous… I’m more curious.
[He wants to see Otegine squirm.]
no subject
Nobody should be lost like that when we're on a deadline around here. Why didn't she just... mmmph.
[He looks genuinely irritated, and definitely not at Owen, considering the sour look softens when he looks back towards him.]
Well, we're gonna fix this.
Do you have something to write with in that suitcase of yours?
no subject
No. Why would I?
[He's pretty sure most of the contents of his suitcase are long gone, anyways, so he just has the odds and ends he's shoved in there and Cerberus.]
You have things in this house, don't you?
[Even if he has no idea what Otegine's planning. Somehow. He is not always the smartest man.]
no subject
Can you recognize pictures okay? Like, uh... if someone drew a picture of a horse or something, could you tell it was a horse?
no subject
[So that’s a yes.]
Unless you’re a terrible artist, I’ll be able to tell.
[Unless he’s as bad as Rutile is, but that’s impossible.]
no subject
B-but I'll let you know what it says, and we can just mark it in a way that makes sense for you! So you don't have to fall behind.
[The pamphlet would be a little harder, but he's still scooting over to go fish his out from wherever the syrote house piles all their documents. Mostly newspaper at this point.]
no subject
Go right ahead. I'm sure whatever you draw will be very illuminating.
[He's just watching Otegine rummage, being entirely useless from the couch. He's comfortable... Also, he's a guest, so that means he doesn't need to help, right?]
no subject
But, uh... I'll try my best. It's not really a talent. [Like most things
He'll start going through the card point-by-point and reading them aloud for Owen, drawing rough little doodles on or by the spaces to give some idea of what they are. Tee-shirts he knows - it's what Owen is wearing right now, he will eagerly point out. Sharing a meal, confessing a secret, paddleboats... he has no idea how to draw a paddleboat, but he remembers sailboats.]
"Holding hands" is this corner up here, though it's already stamped... so you already must have done it with somebody.
[The next line is where he has a significant pause and a clearing of his throat.]
"Blindfolds. Smut." [A glance back to Owen, openly lost.] Any ideas, or...?
no subject
[He’s been mostly quiet while Otegine goes through the squares, but that gets him to speak up. Is the card broken? He would think he would remember holding someone’s hand if that… happened…
Ah.]
…
[Well. Seems he has more to worry about with that other Owen then he thought he did. Maybe Otegine will let that slide under the radar with how embarrassing the smut squares seem to be to him.]
I don’t know. Just draw someone with a blindfold? Though I don’t know what that would add to sex…
no subject
[That it had happened with the other Owen doesn't cross his mind right this second.
He squints for a moment, before trying his best to draw a little head of a stick figure with a blindfold on. He is Making an Attempt.]
Huh... Do people really do extra things like that when they have sex?
Why?
no subject
What is his problem, apparently, is that Otegine doesn't know what kinks are.]
Because they want to? Because it feels good?
[He shrugs one shoulder.]
Sex can be more then just trying to conceive a child, and there's more then one sort of pleasure in the world and more then one way to experience it. Not being able to see what your partner looks like in the throes of passions doesn't seem particularly fun, though.
[A pause.]
Though maybe being able to surprise someone who can't see what you're up to wouldn't be so bad.
[He's considering it, at least.]
no subject
[Can't relate! What's it like to feel passion? He knows one of their songs had lyrics about it... akin to a fire in yourself, an emotion that engulfed you. But it never made much sense without something to pin it to. Battle was the closest alternative their saniwa had offered.
Still, he squints at the card for a moment, nodding thoughtfully.]
I mean, I guess I could see it. You do seem to get a little too much of a kick out of teasing people sometimes.
But, h-hey, that would mean the two of these must be similar, then! [Pointing out the other two "smut" squares on alternate parts of the card.] This one just says "Messy", but this other one is, uh... "rough sex". [Clearing his throat.] I'm... guessing that's just what it means upfront.
[A beat. His eyes flick to his own card, then back to Owen's.]
What about "bondage"? Would that be the same?
no subject
[You try to explain a thing and get judged... smh...]
It's harmless.
[Is it, though? Owen certainly thinks it is, but he's the one doing the teasing...
"Messy" gets Owen's nose to wrinkle, but he nods at "rough sex" as if that's completely understandable. Rough sex is just to be expected, honestly. Sometimes what feels bad feels good.]
Essentially, I suppose? Not quite the same as keeping someone in bondage and forcing them to serve or anything like that... Think more along the lines of binding someone up, tying them up and keeping them in place, unable to move or do much at all while you have your way with them.
no subject
He tries his best to nod through the description, but clarity never truly pings into his eyes, squinting at the card like everything Owen is saying makes the concept that much more a mystery.]
...
Ah.
Maybe I don't have the mindset for that. It doesn't sound all that different to what I'm used to, anyway. [At least, for being used by someone else. Using someone himself? It doesn't even cross his mind. No one would let something like him do that. That's dangerous.
Maybe he should just consider that a square to skip for as long as possible. Bummer.
...]
What do you want me to draw for these other two? I don't, uh... I can't really draw sex. [Please don't make him try.]
What would remind you of both of them?
