My dear Atobe-san, not all relationships are physical!

[worldofice]

Since he is dissatisfied with the current affairs and requires something from the other person, presumably he desires coitus.

[(Anonymous)]

It's nothing like that!

[worldofice]

Ahn? Then what do you require from them?

[(Anonymous)]

The same things everyone wants in a relationship...

[worldofice]

Based on what I have observed onboard this ship, my comment above stands.

If it is not carnal desire you wish to satisfy, then why do you hide behind anonymity?

[(Anonymous)]

Since when has this ship become that bad...

It's embarrassing. And I couldn't be sure if they'd feel the same way...

[worldofice]

Why mention it at all if it is not sexual relations you desire? Are you concerned they will offer their body to another individual? Is it Oshitari?

Are you saying you don't understand the purpose in a relationship not built around that?

I don't think they're that type of person at all. As far as I know...

You appear to be preparing yourself for some form of emotional revealing. I am asking what the need is, if consent is not the issue. What can you get from such an event that you are not receiving at present?

I think there are a lot of things that separate a friendship from a relationship that don't involve physical contact! There's intimacy, and an emotional connection that's more intense than with a friendship. There's a sense that you have a partner with whom you can share everything, and a comfortable familiarity. There can also be a physical closeness that doesn't lead to anything sexual.

Additionally I didn't say I didn't want that entirely... eventually, simply not solely.

[worldofice]

So you wish to commit him to yourself so you can later take advantage of his body. I see. You risk a lot. There are shops to provide you with plastic alternatives.

[(Anonymous)]

Not take advantage!! You have a very unbalanced view of relationships...

[worldofice]

Ahn? Only one of us is soliciting advice from strangers on creating an intimate bond with an individual he does not to trust to confide his thoughts publically to.

[(Anonymous)]

It was an advice post...

[worldofice]

An internet post is no place to receive tailored advice. The correct location is a bar. Come to the Ice Bar near opening or closing. We will discuss your situation.

[ooc: the fact Atobe too asked advice is utterly irrelevant. Come and be his Padawan, young Oishi~ (the fact he has no experience is also irrelevant)]

[(Anonymous)]

... All right, but you can't tell anyone I was there!

[worldofice]

I run a bar for the most exclusive clientele in the Galaxy and --slightly more unfortunately-- one bounty hunter. I can handle your situation.

I really need that creeper icon of Zaizen's
