[ ...Starting to get a distinct impression here, and it is an impression that's making him go, Aw, Lark. He'll even try, for the moment, to put aside his personal disinterest in normalcy, because he knows what Lark is really asking is: Am I okay? ]
🐺: Look 🐺: You can give me a specific number if you're really worried 🐺: Times in a day or times in a week 🐺: But like I said 🐺: People vary 🐺: They vary a lot 🐺: Some people fantasize a ton 🐺: Some people don't do it at all 🐺: Both are fine 🐺: Both are normal
[ Lupine's got it right on the money. It's not like Lark actually knows how he's supposed to handle hormones, for all he knows about everything else, theoretically. ]
[ Beat. Suppressing a soft sigh even though Lark isn't there to hear it. ]
🐺: It's just like that 🐺: You can try distracting yourself 🐺: Thinking really unsexy thoughts 🐺: But the best thing you can probably do is just 🐺: Relax? 🐺: If possible
🐺: But if you have any more questions later? 🐺: You can hit me up
[ He came close to saying Remember all that stuff about getting picky eaters to eat vegetables and fruits? I think I've got a lot of that kinda thing in my head, I can handle giving kids The Talk.
And then he thought about how he would've felt, at fifteen, if someone had told him that.
Might've been a good way of getting Lark to never ask him anything about sex ever again, but like. That's not actually the goal here. ]

Re: Day 442
🐺: Mix it up with the occasional cold shower?
🐺: But also trust me on this
🐺: However much time you're taking to yourself?
🐺: It's not a world record

Skylark: I know fantasizing is perfectly normal
Skylark: But also is it normal to fantasize a lot
Re: Day 442
🐺: Look
🐺: You can give me a specific number if you're really worried
🐺: Times in a day or times in a week
🐺: But like I said
🐺: People vary
🐺: They vary a lot
🐺: Some people fantasize a ton
🐺: Some people don't do it at all
🐺: Both are fine
🐺: Both are normal
Re: Day 442

Re: Day 442
Re: Day 442
🐺: I'm not saying it doesn't kind of suck
🐺: But a hot shower might help too
🐺: Or a bath
Re: Day 442
Re: Day 442
🐺: They're both good for relaxing
🐺: But if you've got a private bathroom
🐺: The shower's a lot easier to clean if the relaxation doesn't take
Re: Day 442
Skylark: It so happens that I do have one
Re: Day 442
🐺: Good
🐺: Any other questions?

Re: Day 442
Skylark: I'll keep that in mind
Re: Day 442
🐺: No problem
🐺: Talk later?
[
In case you need to go run a shower or something now.]Re: Day 442
Skylark: Later
