1. Comment with any character/pairing you know I've written/talked about recently.
2. Receive three bits of trivia about their sexuality: practices, preferences, experiences, fantasies, kinks, etc.
3. Profit!

I'm still doing the other one if you want non-sexuality facts instead/too but why not.

Dave!

Also Perceival if you still think about him?

You'd have a better shot asking Bast for Percival; I never wrote him much, honestly.

You shall get Dave when I get home though. <3

OR I could pass out okay let's go.

1. Sexuality is complicated and weird and he has some seriously buried and half-dealt-with issues with internalized homophobia. (He never has problems with anyone else's sexuality, mind, just his own.) Some of that is family -- his father died when he was young enough that all he can do is infer, and all signs point to 'not that comfortable with it'; his mother has always loved him and got past it, but she's also a very traditional woman who wanted grandkids very badly and it's definitely a thing she had to get past, and however she tried to hide it, he knows she did. (Now, on the other hand, she likes to ask when he and Teddy are finally going to settle down and make it legal already, but it definitely didn't start there.) There's a few other issues that tie into as well, but it's not something he really sat down and picked apart, even when it was a problem; it just took him a couple of years past the initial 'I think I'm gay, no, fuck, why' to get to the point of 'well, okay, I think I'm gay. I can handle this.'

By all technical definitions he's bisexual, if leaning a little more towards men, but he tends to identify as gay because it took so much effort to accept it, and for his mother to accept it, that saying anything else almost feels like a step back.


2. He will cuddle the crap out of you afterwards. So much cuddling. He's a severely tactile and touchy person in general, especially when it comes to sex, and he isn't much of a fan of acts/positions that call for a lack of touching, but afterwards, he turns into a damn octopus if you don't mind. And if he happens to end up with a partner who doesn't enjoy the cuddling, then he will end up cuddling the crap out of Teddy instead when he gets back to him.


3. Sex with strangers and one-night-stands don't hold any appeal even when attracted to them, and never really has. There has to be the context of, if not a romantic relationship first, then at least a healthy friendship before it sounds appealing. (Teddy was definitely his first, and they've never not been together since they first got together, so maybe if he'd ever been alone he'd have a different feeling towards it, but... even then, probably not.)
