Dean waved a hand in acknowledgement that he might have made similarly idiotic moves in the past but thankfully not this time. "Like I said, twats. Although I have come across that too, but it was less of an issue at the time," he said. The unintended pun made his lips twitch in amusement, but he still listened to what she had to say. "It's not always that it's not working. Sometimes I'm really not interested, I mean friction will sometimes do the job even when I'm not feeling like it, but it doesn't make me feel good, at least now how I want sex to feel," he said, swiping up some crumbs with a damp finger. "And I get that as someone without a libido that doesn't suddenly pretty much disappear for weeks or months at a time it's something we need to work on, but right now it's just bloody frustrating for everyone involved."
He sighed when he heard Susan's assessment of the situation. He had had a feeling it would turn out something like that. "Yeah, I know. I mean, I've been trying to get better about sleeping over, and it's working, but it doesn't feel natural yet. You know, takes a long time to train my brain and all that," he explained. Sometimes he wasn't sure why he was bothering, or at least wondered if was ever going to actually work. "They haven't spent a huge amount of time together but they seemed to get on okay. Plus I'm not sure I'm ready to go away with Ophelia yet, not for a week anyway." He sighed, it was the sort of conversation that seemed to include a lot of them. "I should take her on some sort of special date when we get back, shouldn't I? I mean, it's that or hide out here!" he joked. It actually wasn't a bad idea. Not that he was trying to placate Ophelia as such, it was just his comfort levels with people didn't always adjust as quickly as he'd like them to.
