We do have simple microscopes, but that doesn’t change that I’m only really familiar with human blood.

[ And considering he just became a doctor’s assistant a year ago, what he knows about human blood is fairly basic. If he wasn’t currently disgusted by Ianthe he’d suggest she might be more help. ]

Is that all that he said? No condescending drivel about you belonging in the kitchen or contraception being of the devil?

cw: drug mention, chastity mention

[hislittleflower]

I should warn you that my blood can be a drug to some. Addictive. I've had vampires come after me for it before.

I have some small concerns that it might appeal to people's hidden monsters. I've been dousing myself in heavy perfumes to cover the smell as much as possible.

He was actually quite helpful. Direct. But helpful. No mentions of kitchens or devils, thank goodness. I'm still...it's a bit embarrassing, but, until a month ago I'd never had sex. I was under a vow of abstinence. There are still a lot of things I'm learning about it.

[moondregs]

That seems like as good an answer as any as to why your species may not menstruate the same way as humans.

I’d never had sex before this place either. Never thought I would.

[hislittleflower]

Oh. I'd never really thought about it in that context before. You're so clever, Junpei.

[ Mostly because it had never been a concern to her up to this point. ]

Strange, isn't it? To be put into a world were it isn't only a possibility but a reality?

[moondregs]

Strange is an understatement.

[ From isolated loner to having so many people he cared dearly about he couldn’t keep up with all the feelings. From not caring about sex to craving it regularly. ]

I don’t think you need to worry, Peony. If Joan asks you can tell her you consulted a physician.

[hislittleflower]

Thank you. I appreciate it. She was going to come after me with a hammer if I didn't talk to you or Magda.

Can I ask a rude question?

Feel free to tell me it's too personal. I don't want to impede on you.

Are you happier now that you have? I talked to Iggy about it but, it's odd, after the first time, I finally felt like an adult rather than a child masquerading as one.

[moondregs]

[ It’s an interesting question, and Peony’s answer is so touchingly sweet he kind of hates to deliver his less enthusiastic one. ]

It certainly brought a new dimension to my life. Created a new side of me. I don’t know if I can say I’m happier, though. Too much about this world is stressful for sex to fix things.

[hislittleflower]

I suppose it's so peaceful here compared to where I came from that I have a bit of a warped perception of these things.

Thank you, I appreciate your honesty.

[moondregs]

I don’t really like home. But this place is more of a constant onslaught of new problems.

[hislittleflower]

Are there any problems I can help with?

I'm not saying you aren't capable of handling problems yourself but I like to try to be helpful.

[moondregs]

Not unless you can wave your hand and get rid of all the horrors.

[hislittleflower]

I can.

To a degree.

I am a fairy. Might take a few waves of the hand though.
