[Mandricardo is the type of friend who like. Bypasses his own social anxiety if he sees someone else suffering from Anxiety like no. Stop that.]
Lalli...I mean, sex can be about just askin' for it...but most of the time, it's a natural thing that sort of happens as like...a progression of things. Like, um. You kissing Kon at that party. Were you feelin' overwhelmed?
[It's too bad that this isn't emotionshare week because then Lalli could just share how utterly uncomfortable he feels when being touched most of the time. As it is, the words too much come across clearly in his mind, which is the best way he can think of to describe what happens.]
Mhmm. It was weird, we hold hands and kiss all the time and it's not a problem, but that-
[-like wearing an itchy shirt and just wanting to rip it off but you can't because it's your own skin-]
Of course it does! If you are uncomfortable if it goes too fast...there's nothing wrong with slowing it down. Sometimes, to just explore someone else's body and allowing yourself to get comfortable with it in return...that's incredibly intimate.
The point is...if Kon really loves and respects you, he should be fine taking it at the pace you want to.
[And he's looking seriously at Lalli.]
If he ever makes you feel like you're forced into it, or he makes you uncomfortable just so he can get what he wants out of ya...you have every right to leave and tell him to fuck off, okay?
He has to respect you, but you have to respect him too. Running away is like...slappin' him in the face. Believe me, I know how hard it is to say stuff, but...if you love him, you should try to.
[Flashbacks to how he keeps tucking himself against Kon and holding his hand when he's worried or anxious. Kon's so much bigger than him that it's easy to do.]
That makes Lalli smirk, and then he takes off too. He's not strong, but he's fast and soon enough he'll be catching up to Mandi. Agility Rank A, meet Agility Rank S.]

Anyways, that's. Um. Another way! It feels good when you're...stimulated like that.
no subject
Date: 2021-07-22 05:35 am (UTC)I can't ask Kon to do that! It doesn't matter if it feels good, I'll die asking!
[Yeah surprise he's been thinking about this ever since Saturday.]

...I don't really know what 'good together' is, but being near him is nice.

He makes you feel safe, doesn't he?

He's a really kind guy. And I think he must feel lucky to have you.

Let's do the obstacle course.

[I'll be nice and see if he can keep up first.
Yeah he's totally underestimating Mandi whoops.]

See you in the dust, Lalli.
