(WARNINGS: potential nsfw conversation?) text;

( so the pirate is definitely just trying to reach one person in particular, but those handy private filters? well he's not mastered those yet. so enjoy, entire hotel, a pirate and his inquiries.

because when a savior mentions, more than once, that she wants something? well, he's going to try and provide. he stole a bunch of hot chocolate to try and give her something good in a place that has so little to speak of, and this is really no different.

...well it's kind of different. he just doesn't know that yet. )

do you know what condoms are? you can look it up, can't you, in your book? I think that's how it'd be spelled.

do you suppose there will be any around this place, if I asked around?

( he has no idea what he's asking for, but hey. he probably wouldn't be that ashamed if he did. )

[Ward's tone turns a bit more serious.] That I don't know. I'd say asking around would be your best bet man it-

[This is a good idea] They put them in public bathrooms in some places in Europe. In some clubs - places where people dance? They're not everywhere in the US-United States. Where you have to buy them in a box.

Someone might have gotten them in a suitcase.

[He didn't. And his thoughts turn to both Kara and Skye and he pushes a hand over his face.]

We really are settling in for the long winter aren't we. Damn.

Sounds like a miserable place for sex, if you ask me. ( modern people are strange. and he's even a pirate, but sex anywhere around a lavatory seems less than ideal. though modern bathrooms aren't so bad, compared to the Enchanted Forest. a savior next to the sink or in the shower doesn't sound so bad...

focus pirate. )

I don't have much to trade, but I suppose I would if someone has them. ( since this is public and everything, whoops. )

In a sense, it seems so. It does seem wise to be smart about it. ( they've already lost one life too soon thanks to this place, no need to make a new one. )

well it's - you can. I mean bathrooms, airplane bathrooms ... [Ward runs his hands over his eyes. How long has it been?]

I'd help you if I could pal. Trust me. It-

[his smile is thin] the last girl I liked tried to kill me. [So there's that. But.]

We all have to be smart. I just didn't expect it. I mean you can go without it but...

Damn.

Airplanes. ( what is an airplane, while they're at it. who as the A encyclopedia... and hopefully that confusion just seems like further disinterest in sex there, he looks unknowledgeable enough as it is.

oh, bud, he understands this feel. ) My lady left me for dead a time or two, but I rather deserved it. ( at least... he's honest??? )

No, I don't think that's an option. ( he didn't even think sex was an option until now, and now he manages to be disappointed by the lack of condoms around. )

Big metal things, fly in the sky. Join the mile high club. That kinda thing. [Ah. The flight from Hong Kong to Tokyo. The Stewardess. Grant Ward's finest achievement take that Christian.

He grins unintentionally before his expression sobers. Deserved it.]

...She wasn't into it. I'm not insane and I won't force her. That's just the point you shouldn't force. It-

[Letting that slide.] There's...other stuff you can do. [He's tired though, so he'll switch to private later] Pull out before you finish. Or y'know - get creative.

( why would big metal things be in the sky that sounds terrifying and also having sex in them what even ) That's ... also an odd place for sex, I'd think.

( well, at least there's that. though one could argue Hook came on a little bit strong, he doesn't think he's coerced Emma's affections. when she was ready, then he was there. it's as simple as that. ) No, you can't force a woman to do something she doesn't want.

( he shakes his head. he's got a few old-fashioned solutions, and he doesn't think pulling out is going to fly with Emma, not when she's used to contraceptives. or she wouldn't have hoped for condoms in the first place. ) I'm sure it's not worth that risk.

That's why it's a badge of honor if it's accomplished. It's called joining the mile high club.

[He nods.]

...Special lady huh?

I'll take your word for it.

( may he never have to ride in a plane, honestly... flying on the Jolly Roger was fine, because it was magic, but metal hovering high above the earth with no magic at all? no thanks. )

Aye, she's quite something. ( and... probably going to be very unhappy with this public post, whoops. does it make it better that he hasn't used specifics??? ) I'd have liked to manage it for her, but I don't know how good the odds are around here.

....What about romance?

I mean, wine, dine, a little bit of something special to make her feel special?

Not a lot of that to be had here, I must point out. I do what I can.

( not that he thinks they're very obvious to everyone but them. he'd like to do something nicer for Emma than simply bringing her breakfast in bed or holding her hand when they head for the dining hall but there aren't too many options. )

She just said she wished that she had them. I was trying to surprise her. Failing, apparently.

[That's so tender]

...Did you ask her why perhaps?

Then it'd be a terrible surprise.

If I realized what they were, I might have employed a different strategy.

...There's nothing wrong with it.

I mean.

I don't think so I could be wrong.

No, I'd agree there's nothing wrong with it. Though I might have been a bit more graceful.

why?

I should have been more graceful.

( he's just going to leave it at that. )
