I am aware of breasts, yes. Have been for many a year, as it happens.

[He laughs.] I imagine there's stuff you find pretty great when looking at a guy. First principles, you know.

I do... though i have to say I'm not so enthusiastic about what I like as some people who are into them.

[Maybe it's because they're multi-functional and comfy... he can see that. Like nice pillows to rest your head on.]

You dont see me raving about a nice set of shoulders, or...I dont know, big strong hands.

Re: Audio

[everythinglost]

Yeah, but you didn't have anyone to talk about 'em with.

It leaves you repressed.

[That 'you' isn't just about Ethan. Well, the 'repressed' part is about him, but it's not as if Fitz spent a lot of time talking about breasts when he was Ethan's age - thinking about them, yeah, all the time, but not talking.]

Re: Audio

[inthebiblicalsense]

[And here he thought he was repressed for other reasons.]

If you say so, Fitz.

Re: Audio

[everythinglost]

I do say so. [He says, loftily.]

The Barge should open your eyes to imagining a world where you had someone to chat about finding such-and-such person's hands really attractive.

Well, does it count that Norton and I do every once in a while? We did some people watching in New York...

Re: Audio

[everythinglost]

So you do know what it's like to talk about it.

Re: Audio

[inthebiblicalsense]

I guess. But with the way people used to go on and on on about 'tits' in the barracks, Its different.

Re: Audio

[everythinglost]

[A slight huff at that, which accompanies unseen rolled eyes.]

What people go on about in barracks is a whole different thing. It's like Tommy Green claiming Mary Malone let him put a hand on her breast after school: bullshit.

Re: Audio

[inthebiblicalsense]

I dont think people talked about that sort of stuff when I was in school... maybe that isn't universal.

[No Ethan, they did but they just didnt tell you about it.]

Re: Audio

[everythinglost]

You just didn't have any friends.

Don't worry, I didn't either. I just know because I was hiding to avoid getting kicked again. Tommy set fire to my schoolbag, but Mary and me made out in the back of the movies for a month, so I definitely lucked out.

Re: Audio

[inthebiblicalsense]

Set fire? [Ethan frowns, suddenly feeling the intense urge to punch Tommy whats-his-name.]

What an ass...

Re: Audio

[everythinglost]

Right little berk. [His agreement is somewhat dispassionate. Fitz held onto a bitter grudge against the life he'd led, but he'd never held truly longstanding anger against individuals. For better or worse, he's always been angry that there are people who do such things, but it's more general bitterness than something personal.]

Luckily, my teachers hated me anyway so it wasn't like failing to hand homework changed that.
