text @Enoch; sorry this took so long to get to!

I don't mind at all. I believe I've heard Clayton call it a pharmacy? They were in the smaller building near the hospital.

I didn't think to save one of them, myself, I'm sorry.

[Not that he thought anyone would be comfortable getting undressed in this weather. But if there's anything people are, it's unpredictable... It's not like there's anything else Steve could be asking about these for. There are plenty of extra ways to carry water, after all.]

It implies an assumption part of me is glad to see proven wrong. I'm glad you've found a companion to make your time here easier.

permatext; it's never too late for this awkward conversation

[starsandtights]

Pharmacy. Right, that makes sense.

[If that's the case, he wonders if they'd be in any of the other usual places. The convenience stores, the gas station... the grocery store?

This conversation is excruciating, but Steve's curious as to what Enoch's referring to.]

Thanks Enoch. ...What assumption is that, then?

I had assumed that nobody would want to be so intimate here, because of the cold making undressing uncomfortable.

I think it's better I'm wrong than right.

[What is shame? Just a natural part of life they're discussing, here.]

[starsandtights]

[Steve has to laugh a little. And he's feeling a little more comfortable already, since Enoch is so frank. It's just guytalk, right?]

Turns out many things are possible with sufficient motivation.

Luckily getting completely undressed is not actually necessary, although I sure wish we could.

[warriorscribe]

Luckily, though even that is uncomfortable.

[You can't tell him you don't handle using a toilet (if you're lucky enough to have a toilet) as fast as is humanly possible, Steve.]

All the same, it sounds as if you (and hopefully she as well) find your motivation well worth it, and as long as you aren't endangering yourselves for it, that's all that matters.

I hope you're able to find them.

[starsandtights]

With a sheet and a curtain and a small pile of warm things it's almost comfortable.

[Look at him getting more and more candid.]

Don't worry. Even if I'd endanger my own health, I certainly wouldn't endanger hers.

Thanks Enoch.
