[Jean would like to drag this out a little, but he can't; the news feels like it's pushing at the inside of his chest, aching to get out.]

I have a boyfriend! Bertolt and I are dating now!

[Awww, hell yeah, son, that is some damn good news! Krieg sits up straight with a hidden grin.]

Congrats!! When did you work it out?

[By "it" he means all of the stuff that Jean had brought up during their last conversation on this topic.]

[Thank you, Krieg; Jean knew he could depend on you to be happy for him.]

On Bertolt's birthday.

[That's when they got together, at least.]

We're, uh... we're still figuring things out?

Sounds like a good birthday!

[And then the next question is out of his mouth before the voice in his head can stop him:]

What things?

It was. It really was.

[And thank god inner Krieg is a little slow on the uptake today, because this is the opening (ha...) Jean was waiting for, and he barrels right into it.]

Uh... dick things. Krieg, he's... [and Jean pauses, glancing around and then lowering his voice] he's huge.

[Like, massively, intimidatingly big.]

[Krieg blinks, unsure what to do with that information.

....Oh boy, this is gonna be a ride…

He tilts his head to one side, blinks again, and finally responds:]

Yeah?

[Does Jean just want to brag? Does he need advice? Give him a little more to work with here, buddy!]

[At least Krieg is entertaining the conversation, unlike someone who just kept changing the subject.]

I don't know what to do with it.

[Jean has been too skittish to even approach the monster yet, but he knows it's there. Lurking. Waiting. Looming.]

[...Advice, then.

UHHHHHHHHHHH.]

What does he want you to do with it?

Nothing, yet.

[So far they're still very much in the kissing and hand-holding stage. Very Disney-esque, very PG-rated. But Jean knows they won't be there forever, and that thought terrifies him.]

But I know we'll want to someday, and he's just... Krieg, he's intimidating.

[Hand holding??? How obscene!!!]

If you're not doing anything now, why worry about later?

[The Krieg Philosophy of Life, by Krieg]

[So scandalous!]

Because I know we'll want to later, and I don't... I want to be ready for it.

[Whatever it ends up being.]

[Ah, the ever nebulous and all-encompassing "it".]

So talk to him. Ask him what he wants. Ask him what he doesn't want. And tell him what you want and what you don't want.

[This is the kind of solid, no-nonsense advice Jean has come to expect from Krieg, and he's grateful.]

Okay... and go slow. Like you told me before.

[Maybe someday in the future, Jean will get to touch Bertolt's titty.]

Yeah! You don't gotta rush it.

Figuring it out should be part of the fun!

[Touching one whole tiddy? What a little degenerate!]

[They are true degenerates.]

Okay.

Thank you, Krieg. You're a really good friend, you know?

[If Shiro wasn't already Dad(tm), Krieg would be next in line to get the position.]

Did that help?

[Aww, Jean, buddy, you're gonna make him blush!]

Yeah, it did. It helped a lot.

Good!

[It didn't feel like a lot, but Jean seems satisfied, so he'll take his friend's word for it.]

Ask me anytime, okay?

[Sex may be a weird foreign concept to Krieg, but he's got a lot of weird trivia and facts floating around in his brain that he can share if he's asked about them!]
