Oh, Gods, no! No, I don't mean that kind of not-friendly.
Um.
I mean like the moonlacing sort of not-friendly.

oh... the opposite problem..
you wanna have sex with someone who is just your friend

there's a name for that..
it's called friends with benefits

or fuckbuddy

_{[ He just says it like it is. ]}

[Please excuse Tanjiro as he literally dies over the casual state of Gintoki's language.]

That is certainly very helpful I appreciate it having a name if only because that probably means it's not that unusual!
I guess?
I don't know. :(

it really isn't that unusual...
guess you just have to look deep down in your heart
or your prostate

and figure out if you like your friend for who they are
or if you just like the way they look

that's a place to start

[Gintoki why are you like this.]

[Tanjiro... actually takes a long time to reply to this one, because he thinks about the suggestion. Does he like Inosuke for who he is? Absolutely. He's earnest and straightforward and even if he's almost exhaustively energetic, he always manages to have just enough energy to fuel them all forward. It's certainly not a matter of "just" with his looks-- he's pretty, and that's just a fact of life. He'd meant it when he said he had an attractive face when they first met, but he hadn't... really expected that to ever lead him to this.]

What if I like both?

_{[ a long, exasperated sigh....
There's gotta be more to this, otherwise why would this kid be so apprehensive? ]}

it's another guy, isn't it?
_{[ Why does he keep getting these confused kids? ]}

Oh.
Well yes, but that's not really the problem?
I'm more concerned with the fact that we're friends, and...
The sort of things I'm interested in doing with him aren't necessarily things you do with friends.
I mean there's not really anything inherently wrong with two guys being together, right?

[Tanjiro said gay rights.]

course not
if anyone has an issue with it how about they mind their own damn business

_{[ In his era, it was a pretty common practice, but now as things are changing and Japan is getting influenced by other things, well.. they're sadly becoming jokes and people who shouldn't be taken seriously.

Anyway, Gintoki also said gay rights. ]}

just would explain your apprehensiveness
there's some crap going around by simple minded people that it's wrong
but i mean
what's actually wrong is people not being honest with themselves

so don't listen to them

_{[ A pause. ]}

if you think about someone else doing "not-so-friendly" things with your friend, does it make you jealous?

[Oh, he got Gintoki on a gay soap box, okay. He smiles, honestly, because even if he met the dude because he was drunkenly singing at his window, he's glad he wasn't wrong about him being a good person.]

[It makes him glad he came to him to advice, despite his... coarse choice of words.]

[He frowns, thinking that over. He...'s not sure he could expect Inosuke to get frisky with anyone else-- to an extent, he feels like they may not have fooled around if he hadn't been the one to get so handsy. ...but what if someone else got handsy? He frowns.]

...I don't know, really. I'm sorry, that's not very helpful.
I mean, I think I would want him to enjoy what he wants with who he wants, mostly.

that's the perfect answer that proves something else is going on here than just "oh i think my friend is hot"

take him on a date

like, i get it, we protagonists like to be self sacrificial, but you deserve to love someone
and have them love you back

_{[ Gintoki doesn't really feel that way about himself, though. He's done too much wrong to deserve anything like that. ]}

[This both makes everything a lot better and a lot worse. Something else is going on other than him just thinking Inosuke is hot??? Take him on a date? Oh, God.]

I mean at home I definitely have more important things to worry about.
But I have no way of knowing when I'm getting home again, and...
I guess maybe a distraction from how much that bothers me would be good...
I dunno how easy it's gonna be to take him on a date, though.

just find three things you know he loves
combine it into one romantic night
bam
how can he say no to that?

i'd say remember to use protection but we're sterile here
just use plenty of lube
oh, and your fingers first
i don't know how much gay 101 you know but i could give you tips

_{[ this is literally The Talk. ]}

[Food, and fighting... and maybe the mountains? This is harder than he thought it would be. He's quiet for a while, mulling it over, and-- ...Well he's embarrassed, but in all honesty he's sort of glad Gintoki is looking out for him, however crudely it's stated.]

It might be a little difficult to figure out how to combine the things he loves, but I'll work on it.
And I don't really know anything about it, actually.
So, uh.
It's a little embarrassing, but tips are appreciated.

[Gintoki is just actually his dad now.]

_{[ Well. Here we go. There's a little grumbling on his part, but fine. He'll do it. ]}
first off, what do you know so far about two guys having sex?

[Oof, right out the gate running. The... gayte. He can do this! If he wants to learn, he has to.]

Not very much! Obviously it employs the rear, since most boys aren't equipped with... Um. Other things.
But I guess that's only if it's penetrative?
Which it doesn't have to be, probably!

You said use your fingers, and...
I mean that's usually exit-only, so that makes sense, to... Uh.
Make that happen easier.

Wow, this is very embarrassing.

_{[ Tanjiro is so cute. ]}
yeah, it makes it feel nicer, otherwise it could hurt, so make sure you use lube on your fingers first before doing anything
start with one, then two.. you can spread those fingers apart carefully to stretch him

you're wanting to find his prostate, though.. it feels really amazing if you can make him orgasm that way and some people prefer to just use their fingers without putting their dick in at all..

if you wanna do that, curl your fingers upward... guess it varies by different people, but you can try making circles or just stroking him like that with different pressure and speed

anytime you do anything like this make sure your nails are trimmed and hands are clean, obviously.. you can put a condom on your fingers first if that makes you feel more comfortable

_{[ The basics are covered. ]}

make sense?

[He actually has to put his phone down and cover his face with his hands several times while reading this. He's probably sitting on the floor in the apartment somewhere, and somewhere between "spread those fingers" and "prostate" he actually shouts and kicks the wall.]

[It takes him a bit to get back to the phone, scooting across the floor on his stomach and typing with just his index fingers.]

Plenty, yep.
Super embarrassing stuff.
But I know he likes feeling good, so maybe...

Oh, but he has super sensitive skin, like... He can feel stuff way more intensely than anybody I've met, that... Gosh, now I'm a little worried.
As long as I'm slow and careful with it, and clean and stuff, you think it's something that can be done without hurting someone?

it'd be a pretty sad life if he couldn't enjoy something like this
it's like.. erectile dysfunction
but the opposite

that's where you gotta make sure to communicate with him and listen to him.. it's really important you think of the receiver and not just yourself during all of this

it's fun for everyone involved, but the person taking it is really putting themselves in a vulnerable state
and you don't wanna do anything to make them regret it

[Now he's just sprawled out on his stomach on the floor reading his texts like a... well, like a dumb teenager in love, honestly, kicking his feet in the air idly.]

Oh of course!
I'm actually kind of more interested in making sure he's having a good time than... Even really being involved?
We, uh.
This might be oversharing, but we fooled around a... while ago, and I just kind of handled him instead of participating, and that was okay.

But that's really good to know, I appreciate it.
He doesn't like anything involving feeling weak, so I might have to figure out a way to... swap, I guess?
Not sure how I'm gonna teach a guy who can't really read how to do this, but it'll either be fun or a complete catastrophe.

i've been with guys like that
usually it's the tough guys that are the fussiest bottoms
pain in the ASS

god

ok
make him sit on your dick
or fingers
or if you even want to buy a sex toy, they make those.. sometimes it's more comfortable to use something like that too

it gives him more control and if he's the sensitive one, maybe he needs to do that

[He has learned so many things today.]

Tough guy is definitely a descriptor...
But it's okay, if he doesn't want to!

I think he would probably just be bothered by feeling like a girl?
He's... not really very socially adjusted, so uh.
Sex [God he struggled to type that word, what a prude--] is definitely a "mating" sort of thing to him.
I'm actually pretty sure he's called it that.

I'll... Either way I'm gonna have to talk to him about it, and he hates talking, so this is gonna be something else.
But I don't wanna just force myself on him, especially since like you said it's kind of a vulnerable position for him to be in.

Can I ask you a personal question? [Tanjiro you've been letting him teach you how to finger a dude, what about that isn't personal.]

can't believe you're gonna screw he-man the barbarian

probably a good plan
don't make things go too fast
i've done that before.. it doesn't end well

go for it

He's not a barbarian!!

[Someone's defensive...]
