Audio then Video | UN: oceangem

[SO, she got that whole sex education thing done and dusted. Now she's trying to figure out the device a bit more so at first it's audio.]

Okay so it's like this, and oh!

[Visuals now! Showing anyone who is watching this a woman who is. Well. Blue, literally she's the colour blue. She mutters under her breath something that sounds like "Oh like the video call" before turning her full attention to the device.

Now to ask an important question, especially after what things she has seen so far.]

... Is sex really that important here?

Elemental? No, I'm a Gem.

[How to explain it.]

I think I'm the only Gem here so far, actually.

[necroyalty]

Go on.

[riptidequeen]

Oh well, um. Gems aren't human, even though I have a human-like form that's just ah well...

[Come on, Lapis, she can explain this.]

Ugh I wish Peridot was here she'd be able to explain it better.

[necroyalty]

You're not accustomed to all the more awkward intricacies of a physical form, is how I understand it, and it exists purely as a conduit for interacting with the world.

[ She's not familiar with gems in particular, but she's aware that plenty of extraplanar or otherwise non-humanoid beings are like that. ]

[riptidequeen]

That's... Somewhat on the nose. We do have things like kissing and flirting. But the closest to something as intimate as sex is fusion.

[And boooooy howdy does Lapis have issues with that.]

[necroyalty]

I'm...unfamiliar, though the name alone does call certain images to mind.

I'm not going to go into too much detail on the matter unprompted, but you'll find that most humanoids consider sex to be a rather confusing and frustratingly complex subject.

[riptidequeen]

Hopefully not anything like that sex post's images.

[Because that is not fusion.]

And I am noticing that.

[necroyalty]

I could go on about the societal implications of sex for ages, but I doubt that's something you truly want to be bogged down with or care much for.

Most of our kind find the act quite enjoyable. Even without this world's magic, humans have parts of our bodies - some of which I'm sure you've seen in that post - that are especially sensitive, and touching them in just the right way produces sensations of pleasure.

However, I don't expect the same to be true for other forms of life.

[riptidequeen]

Again, you're right. I don't care.

[But on the last line of words, well...]

Then you're way better than a lot of others, miss.

[necroyalty]

[Oh. The very implication that this hit a nerve is one that has Ambrosine thinking to herself for a moment, because there's too many memories being jogged up. Welp.]

I certainly hoped that wouldn't have to be the case.

[She knows she's not exactly the best person, so that was just depressing.]

[riptidequeen]

Well, you didn't know. So that's fine.

[It's her problem, so no one's fault but hers anyway.]
