Filtered away from Jean

I told Jean.

He freaked out and went out for 'air' which probably means he'll be blackening his lungs with nicotine right about now.

Wonderful.

Oh baby... I'm so sorry. I'm sure he'll come around. If you'd rather have some space away from each other for tonight, you're more than welcome to come here, Emilio.

I don't know. I'm not sure which would be better...what do you think?

[seminalsemiotic]

Knowing Jean, it'll probably take him a little while to sort through this. I doubt it's something he's ever contemplated before. It just wouldn't occur to him. Still, it might be helpful for him to have you around. That way, he can see you're still just the same Emilio you always were. And if he needs to talk and ask questions, you'll be right there. Otherwise, who knows what sort of conclusions he might come to. Jean's mind doesn't exactly work like other people's.

That's...a good way to put it. And a good point. I'll stay here.

What if he doesn't come around?

[seminalsemiotic]

If he doesn't at first, we'll keep trying. He's accepted my sexuality for years. I think he can do the same with you. It might take a little more time - some men find homosexuality confronting, after all - but I'm confident he can get over it.

[unturning_world]

Well, he's accepted your sexuality because it's his all time fantasy.

But you're right, I can give him time. I'm just worried. Nervous. He's one of my best friends.

I know he is, darling. But that's why I believe things will be okay.

Some guys get freaked out by lesbianism, too. Poor dears.

Thank you, Renee.

And they've obviously never seen my gorgeous ladies then, have they?

[seminalsemiotic]

That's right! We can melt the hearts of even the most conservative and sexually repressed of men.

[unturning_world]

Of that, I have no doubt.
