Jude opened his mouth to say yes, but the words died in his throat as he realized something. "I wanna say yes," He said, his smile lessening, "–But how well do you…do…with water?"

Nyx frowned a little bit. "What do you mean?" he asked. "I…I don't know if I can swim, but…I should be fine. I'm not made of material that would rust."

"Oh," Jude said with a nod, "Then it shouldn't be a problem; they have lifejackets. So as long as it's safe for you– then, yeah. We'll go some time."

Nyx nodded a little bit, looking excited again. "So we can go?" he asked, looking at Jude happily.

"Yes," Jude smiled, casually honking at a slow driver, "We can go kayaking some time."

(Gtg for a while)

Nyx smiled excitedly. "Yay! Thank you, Jude." he leaned over and kissed Jude's cheek, squirming a little bit in his seat.

Jude let out a soft laugh, braking for two dads and their kid waiting to cross the street. "Mhm, you're welcome," He smiled, looking over at him with a smile.

Nyx's eyebrows drew together at the sight of the two dads, trying to figure something out. "Hey, Jude?" he asked slowly.

"Mhm?" Jude chimed, keeping his eyes on the road as they drove further down East Harlem.

"I thought children were made by a guy and a girl but that couple had a kid and they were both guys?" Nyx said slowly, looking at Jude in confusion.

(Nyx's thought process: ?+?=??)

Jude's eyes widened and he almost lost focus of where he was going, narrowly missing a biker. His gaze flickered to Nyx trying to pay attention to the road at the same time. "Oh…yeahhh," He said with a faint laugh, wondering how he could've missed that. "So…biologically, you'd need a man and a woman. Cause…sex between two guys or girls won't make a baby."

Nyx:

(oml that's so accurate tho XD)

Nyx frowned. "But I thought sex was only a guy and a girl?" He said slowly. "But…are you saying it can be two…guys or two girls? And how would that even…work? Guys don't have…vaginas, as far as I know??"

Jude let out a faint laugh, shaking his head. "I didn't explain it right–" He said, "Sex can be between two guys and girls as well, yes. And no, guys do not have vaginas. Though– some people who weren't born male could still identify as–" Jude quietly chuckled, "That's a whole other discussion."

(oh my god trying to learn about trans people is going to fuck with Nyx's brain lmao)

Nyx squinted at Jude, not understanding hardly any of what the other was saying. "…I don't get it." He said slowly.

(yepp. roll out the chalkboard boys, it's gon be a long night.)

"Mhh, we'll put a pin in that one, so–" Jude muttered under his breath, trying to sort out his next words. He cleared his throat. "So," He said with a nervous laugh, drumming his fingers on the steering wheel, "–Two girls can have sex, for pleasure, and not get pregnant. It's the same with two guys."

(hahaaa)

Nyx squinted at Jude. "But…how?" he said slowly. "They don't have the right…I…" he shook his head rapidly, not understanding how that would even work.

"No…they– we have the right…parts," Jude said with a few nods, smiling at Nyx's confusion, "It works the same way, mostly."

Nyx frowned. "But…if guys don't have a vagina…" he trailed off, obviously not making the connection. "I don't understand."

Jude cleared his throat, looking at the road in front of him. "It's the, um…other hole," He said slowly, wondering if he'd laugh or cringe if he properly faced Nyx.

Nyx stared at him for a long moment, and was suddenly very very glad that he couldn't blush. "…oh." he said faintly, blinking and trying to process that.

"…Yeah," Jude said with a faint laugh, loosely gesturing with his hands, "There's like a…spot there, it's like…a bunch of nerve endings, I guess." He shook his head, smiling, "It feels good, is what I'm tryna say."

(haha what a way to go XD but alright!)

Nyx squinted at him. "But…" he shook his head quickly. "Okay." he looked vaguely uncomfortable, looking out the window for a moment.

(haha– sorry, my schedule's all over the place)

Jude lightly shrugged, turning the corner onto 5th Avenue and looking for the miracle of on-street parking, cringing at the crowded blur of yellow cabs and tourists spilling out of shopping centres; flocking to the different sights along the long street.
