Open: Open!
When: 218, throughout the day
Where: All over the Bastion
What: Unsolicited sex-ed
Format: I'll match
Warnings: Anya has no filters.

Anya does not normally spend much time on the Skyway, but anyone might have noticed she's been going out more than usual over the past week. Sometimes alone, sometimes dragging certain Nobodies along because it is in their best interest.

The goal of all this? Safety and education. She is being awfully generous and using the resulting shards to buy a large quantity of condoms. Not just for herself, but for the Bastion's population of should-be-hormonal teenagers and the like.

If you look like you've been through puberty, Anya is liable to approach you. She's not going door-to-door or anything (she doesn't care that much), but if she sees you around the Bastion, better be prepared for a probably awkward conversation.

While he's still looking a little thinner than he was, Ryu's balance and injuries have been fully restored. With the right weapon picked out he's back in full form and ready to go. It's here Anya might find him with some light armor and sword strapped to his back, making his rounds around the Bastion before approaching the Skyway.

[dontyoujustwish]

Yes, this looks like an eligible but very likely clueless young man.

"Hello!" Anya says cheerfully. "Do you have a minute before you head out? I have something important for you. Well, not really for out there but maybe for when you get back. Killing things does make some people horny."

[dragonform]

He pauses, turning away from the Skyway. He's about to offer Anya a friendly greeting before she begins talking. And then it dawns on him exactly what she's talking about.

"I have a minute before I head ou--..." And then he pauses.

"I'm sorry, what?"

[dontyoujustwish]

"Oh, maybe you aren't completely clueless." Anya recognizes that sudden awkwardness. She has seen it in many a conversation about sex.

She digs one of her many condoms out of a pocket and holds it out to him. "Here. Do they have contraceptives where you come from? Do you know how this works?"

[dragonform]

"Uh... They probably did, but it's something I never looked into. I was focused on other things to worry about sex. I don't really see that changing anytime soon." That is to say he's trying to slip out of this conversation. His sexual knowledge is only good enough to know the vague motions, but he's completely lacking in any personal experience.

[dontyoujustwish]

Anya is not about to let him go that easily.

"You can never be certain about that. You might unexpectedly find yourself caught up in the moment, and with that attitude you won't be prepared. Do you really want to do that to some poor girl?"

[dragonform]

"I don't think I'll ever be in that position." He answers truthfully. Love isn't something he's given much thought to. He was focused on his personal journey first, and now he wants to be sure he can protect the Bastion.

"Protecting the Bastion comes before anything else. I'm not really the type of person that does... that." He adds. The way he says it isn't though as he's ashamed about sex or anything of the sort, he just genuinely thinks that it's unlikely to ever happen to him. "Your time might be better spent talking to someone else. I don't think love is really something I'm worried about right now."

Of course the idea only vaguely occurs to him that there were people out there a bit more informal about sex, but Syn City was but a distant memory at this point.

[dontyoujustwish]

"Who said anything about love?" is, however, Anya's immediate reaction. "I'm talking about sex. I mean, sure, it can be even more enjoyable when you are in love, but it's hardly a requirement."

[dragonform]

"I just thought the two always went hand in hand." As anyone can see, he's pretty innocent about all of this. "Wouldn't this be better saved with someone who actually intends to have sex at some point?"

Yeah, he's pretty uncomfortable at this point.

[dontyoujustwish]

"Oh, I have more where this came from," she says, thrusting the condom at him anew. "Just take it. If you want to be juvenile and use it for a water balloon, that's your choice, but I hope you'll keep it on hand just in case. I've had plenty of sex that I didn't really intend to."

[dragonform]

"I wouldn't waste something like this on juvenile pranks!" He exclaims perhaps a bit louder than he intended. "Will you cease trying to shove it into my hands if I just take it?"

[dontyoujustwish]

"Yes. That's exactly what the shoving is supposed to accomplish."

[dragonform]

There are very few times Ryu will show any irritation, but the fact Anya is so doggedly determined to see this through, he supposes he has no choice. "Alright, give them to me." He answers with a resigned tone in his voice, holding out his hand.

[dontyoujustwish]

Come on, Ryu, she's just thinking about everyone's safety. He should be glad to see such determination about it!

Anyway Anya happily presses a few condoms into his hand. "There. And remember, if you ever need more, the Monument knows how to make them."
