"Well, yes..." Albedo doesn't have the capacity to look sheepish, but he does feel a twinge of guilt for suddenly dropping the suggestion on Jean. "I would not suggest such a thing unless I had confidence in the results it could produce. And I am aware, socially, this is not ideal."

Her admission doesn't seem to phase or shock him either. It makes sense, really. Not for any lack of admirers he's sure Jean has, or for her looks, because she is quite beautiful. But when would she have time?

"It is... an interesting experience." That's probably not romantic or comforting, but this is also coming from the guy that tried it first, explicitly, as an experiment. "But nice. I would do my best to make it so for you, if that's any comfort?"
