Morning☆Glory: Thank you. I do too, I think.
Morning☆Glory: Though I was really expecting you to win...

sad bird in snow: I mean I guess I have options but I definitely couldn’t have made that happen spontaneously like that
sad bird in snow: The power of confidence at work
sad bird in snow: And I guess probably the power of mutual thirst?

sad bird in snow: Have you had any weird dreams lately? On another note.

[ “on another note” this is very smooth and definitely non-obvious as a segue ]

[very smooth. she's quiet for a while as that drags up memories]

Morning☆Glory: Yes, actually, now that you mention it.
Morning☆Glory: I guess I had a suspicious number of similar sexy dreams the other night.

[...]

Morning☆Glory: Is that really "another note"? From mutual thirst?

[ very long typing indicator ]

sad bird in snow: I suppose I didn’t actually find a non-weird way to ask about that, then.
sad bird in snow: Er.
sad bird in snow: Is it?

Morning☆Glory: It's not any weirder than any other way.
Morning☆Glory: And... it seems like it?
Morning☆Glory: I hadn't really thought of us like that either. Not exactly.
Morning☆Glory: But I don't remember saying anything in that dream I didn't mean.

sad bird in snow: Oh good.
sad bird in snow: I mean, same.

sad bird in snow: anyway it was
sad bird in snow: nice. really nice.

Morning☆Glory: Yeah. It was.

[...]

Morning☆Glory: I don't usually...
Morning☆Glory: I was going to say "I don't usually do stuff like that," but that makes it sound like I don't want to.
Morning☆Glory: Though it's not like I've been sitting around wanting to do it either?
Morning☆Glory: I guess it's more... there's no point saying "usually" when I'm still figuring out what kind of stuff I like.
Morning☆Glory: And I've really only been with competitive guys before, so...

sad bird in snow: Sort of like I did not expect to be interested in nearly so many men, I guess
sad bird in snow: I guess this is in fact proof that there is no such thing as an non-sexy rivalry
sad bird in snow: But I'm pretty sure I actually knew that when we shook hands on it.

Morning☆Glory: Sort of. Though I didn't know literally anything about what I was interested in, before here.
Morning☆Glory: Well, I had one interest, but that was scripted...

[...]

Morning☆Glory: It did occur to me that it could force a tie if we had a threesome together.
Morning☆Glory: Just hypothetically. I was pretty drunk.

sad bird in snow: Glory
sad bird in snow: do you want to have a threesome.

Morning☆Glory: I probably always want to have a threesome
Morning☆Glory: If there is one thing about myself I've learned, it's that I'm more interested in threesomes than most people.

[......]

Morning☆Glory: but if you had one specifically in mind, the answer is probably more specifically yes, too

sad bird in snow: Well it's suddenly very hard to not think about the idea of one with you and Raven now, so

[she has to think about this for a minute]

Morning☆Glory: Well. I'd try it.
Morning☆Glory: I'm not sure how he'd feel about it... It was easy with Dante because we both want to destroy him, but he has serious feelings for you. So it might be weirder to have me there. I know he's pretty sure he's a jealous person.
Morning☆Glory: What about Nero...?
Morning☆Glory: That is, what would he think about it?
Morning☆Glory: I was joking about it the other time, but I don't actually want to steal his fiancee away. Even if it's for threesomes.
Morning☆Glory: ...Especially ones he could be having.

sad bird in snow: I'd have to ask... he's been kind of insecure recently about, er... I think like, not having tried as many things as other people
sad bird in snow: so maybe it's not a bad idea if it's someone who's a friend...?

sad bird in snow: oh this is definitely a real "on another note" but Raven definitely told Nero he was into him during the game and Nero was very sad he was too nervous to kiss him

Morning☆Glory: Oh. That's cute
Morning☆Glory: Though Raven's probably freaking out about it... I'll have to talk to him.
Morning☆Glory: I meant what would Nero think about you, me and Raven, though. If that wasn't clear.
Morning☆Glory: I'd definitely also have a threesome with you and Nero, obviously, but if he's nervous about it to start with I doubt doing it with me would improve anything.

sad bird in snow: Oh that makes sense, I read that wrong.
sad bird in snow: I mean, he holds himself to different standards than he does me and really doesn't mind if I sleep with someone else, since we're both really... I guess the attitude is "of course everyone should also want to kiss her, she's wonderful" which is, of course, very cute of him.
sad bird in snow: actually when I told him about Raven I think he was more alarmed by me feeling like it was a big deal

Morning☆Glory: Yeah, I wasn't thinking he'd be upset about you sleeping with me, exactly. I've got that attitude too, obviously. More like...
Morning☆Glory: Well, if it's a threesome specifically, and he's already insecure about not having done things, or not being able to do things like that
Morning☆Glory: You doing it with someone else might make him feel like he's not measuring up?
Morning☆Glory: I definitely had feelings like that, when my boyfriend was doing things with other people he wasn't with me. Like... I just couldn't do things properly, or I wasn't sexy enough.

sad bird in snow: Ah... that's really true
sad bird in snow: so that's a good point...
sad bird in snow: although apparently someone has proposed a foursome to him

[...]

Morning☆Glory: Four people seems a lot more complicated than three...
Morning☆Glory: Do you think it's something he's interested in?

sad bird in snow: I have no idea. he was extremely wasted when he was telling me about this
sad bird in snow: I told him that he should probably wait until he was sober to make decisions about... a lot of things.

Morning☆Glory: Maybe it was more an example of how far he still feels like he's behind, then...
Morning☆Glory: First everyone's dating lots of people when he doesn't even know how to have a relationship, then he gets the hang of that and someone wants a foursome when he can't even handle a threesome... that kind of thing.
Morning☆Glory: Though I know he still feels like he's disappointing people on that first one, too. Like me. He also talked to Raven about that.
Morning☆Glory: I am worried about him forcing himself to do something just because he feels like he should.

sad bird in snow: I’m starting to have that worry for him, too...
sad bird in snow: I mean I’m the worst example but at least sex is the one place I’m decent at having boundaries
sad bird in snow: Sometimes your comfort zone is your comfort zone.

Morning☆Glory: He's a really good guy, and he wants to make people happy...
Morning☆Glory: I can see him deciding that him being uncomfortable is an acceptable price for that, even if the people he's with don't want that for him.
Morning☆Glory: Though, to be fair, it's hard... Sometimes you DO want to try something you're a little uncomfortable with, to push yourself and see if it's something you like once you get into it.
Morning☆Glory: So sometimes the line there isn't really clear.

sad bird in snow: Maybe I should have Persephone talk to him...
sad bird in snow: He’s pretty good at talking through that sort of thing and sometimes it helps to hear from someone who doesn’t have a stake in it

Morning☆Glory: That might be a good idea
Morning☆Glory: I did try to talk to him a little, but I'm not sure he even really believes me that he's not disappointing me, so I'm probably the wrong person for it.
