[Estelle is well aware of the birds and the bees, how babies are made and everything. She's actually well educated in such things despite her innocent nature, though knowing is half the battle, right? It means she won't get curious for herself and accidentally scar herself in some way.

Though the City has decided that she's ignorant of such matters. To the point that it decided to change the very book she was reading into a rather... educational scene. Sure, she was reading a romance novel, but she always makes sure to choose rather clean ones. She's been warned of the City and what books it may throw at her...

...and now reading, she had a bit of difficulty deciphering what this current passage was, so she read it outloud.]

"He came back to my mouth and I kissed him, tasting myself which he tasted too."

What does that mean?

[She reads on…]

"I kissed him back and kissed his bare chest all the way down to the top of his… jeans…"

[Okay, this isn't what she was reading, or what she thought it was about, but she's rather sure she didn’t pick up that kind of book.]

"He moaned, stared at me wanting to take his co—"

[And with her face now completely flush, she slams her book shut and throws it across the table. Then looking towards her device, notices it's on and meekly moves in to shut it off. Oh, why of all things was that just broadcast. Curse her luck…

Of course it'd be a curse…]

... Maybe you need one with a different storyline. That scene moved pretty fast...

I don’t want to read another story like this…! I honestly don’t mind stories of romance, but I honestly don’t want or need the details of their bedroom activities!

[ Now he just feels bad for her. She seems so traumatised ] You don't have to read those parts of the story either, you know. Even if they're in there, you can just skip ahead a chapter and ignore it...

I... I wouldn't want to skip ahead, but... I wouldn't want to read it either. That's why I have been avoiding such books.

You wouldn't miss much by skipping ahead in this case... There's no reason to avoid them entirely just because of a few passages.

There are plenty of books to read that don't have such material in them...

[She's fighting this argument until the bitter end. No way on Earth does she want to even touch a book with a sex scene in it again.]

[ This isn't something Tyr wants to be stubborn about. Especially when she looks like that. ]

That's true, too... You can't always avoid them that easily, though.

I always found it rather simple, to be completely honest.

[The scandalous covers are usually a dead give away.]

Until now.

[ Unless she was curious! ]

I honestly think that was all the City's doing, placing such a scene in the book I was reading...

[She's usually not quick to blame others, but she knows the City rather well right now and its curses.]

...Yeah, you're probably right... With everything else people are doing...

I wonder if the deities find amusement in this. Honestly, I think they have to... but, this one may have gone just a little too far...

It was just one scene...

Why not read another book you like instead and forget about it? The curse should leave you alone then.

[That 'one scene' was more than enough to do its damage, though!]

Maybe I will go and read a fantasy novel. It should be... um... safe to read.

[ He guesses so!! She's so upset... ]

Right... And just put it away if things go in a weird direction.

Y-yes, that sounds like a wonderful plan! Hopefully it was just that book and worst case scenario just that genre...

[That would be the worst curse ever to have every book ever to have a sex scene in it. ;.;]

You should avoid the genre all together today just in case...

[ 'All books are now sexier versions of themselves' would be an awesome curse for Estelle!! ]

That is my plan. Are there any fantasy novels that you would recommend, Tyr?

[No, that is a terrible curse, and you should be ashamed for thinking such a thing!]

Me? [ No-one ever asks for his tastes on stuff. He looks surprised, then pauses to remember the title... ] I don't know if we have the same tastes... You can try The Eye of the World if you want to, though. I borrowed it from the library here, so they should have it.

[ But Estelle could learn so much-! Think of the sexy carpentry books! ]

Oh, I shall take a look at that book! The title sounds interesting that it makes me want to go check it out, well, if I can't find it. I know the library makes it difficult to find the specific book one is looking for.

[Mmm... sexy carpentry. Things about screws and nails... durr hurr hurr!]
