avante en garde - SATURDAY NOON PST

[ The bar is unit-colored with light unit paraphernalia, although it's all just for show. Fortunately, comfort isn't part of the unit aesthetic this time—all seats are cushioned, whether the booth seats or the bar stools, comfy and lush. Idols can sit anywhere they like, it seems.

There's alcohol available, but everything else is locked behind the wall-cabinet. . . the recipe book is also available to peruse at one's leisure.

Ah—the door opens, and a fuzzy sort of shade steps in. It looks like idols will be serving the Damned, today. . . ? ]

Just 'cause you both got outies don't mean you can't figure out how to make it work. I already got some ideas and that ain't even really my jam, so maybe you just gotta try harder.

Oh my God!!

[ IN ENGLISH. ]

S-Stop, stop--! It's not even about... we wouldn't even be able to have children!?

Re: ORDER 4 DISCUSSION

Not every relationship's about kids. Either way, you could adopt, or use a surrogate. There's ways.

I... I realize that there are same-sex couplings-

[ He is determinedly NOT mentioning any couplings he's taken or not taken part in.]

But it's illegal to marry someone of the same gender back home. And that would never be allowed in my family, to begin with! Not as the head of the family.

Re: ORDER 4 DISCUSSION

[unbr8kable]

It is?

...'Sides, if you're the head of the family, can't you do whatever you want? Though maybe don't marry your cousin?

Re: ORDER 4 DISCUSSION

[heavyliesthecrown]

I may be the head, but my parents are still my parents...

[ They are very strict...!! ]

A-And they probably already have someone chosen for me.

Re: ORDER 4 DISCUSSION

[unbr8kable]

Well, just talk to that person and work something out. Ain't like you're her love match either. So long's you're honest about it, what's the big deal?

Re: ORDER 4 DISCUSSION

[heavyliesthecrown]

. . . I need to keep reminding myself that no one else here seems to be scandalized by the things I find scandalous.

Re: ORDER 4 DISCUSSION

[unbr8kable]

I mean, I can't say I know nothing 'bout that kinda parental pressure. But either way, you shouldn't have to forget about yourself when you're making people happy. That's all I'm saying.

Re: ORDER 4 DISCUSSION

[ . . . ] That at least is advice I can take.

Re: ORDER 4 DISCUSSION

[She nods, face warm]

I mean. It's good advice. Naturally.
