"....I thought we were establishing there's nothing wrong with me!' Tolten joked, laughing some. If he admitted that honestly, yes, he'd rather fight those things than try and lose his virginity then he may as well admit there was something wrong with him. That simply wasn't normal.

At least Renji understood he couldn't simply change his worldview at a moment's notice. But perhaps if he looked at it practically and with logic....

"Perhaps I could sell it," he mused. "I know there's a black market about here. And at least then I'd have proper justification. Besides, it would take a great deal of the stress and search out of things...."

Of course, that assumed there were those here who were that interested in his virginity. This wasn't Uhra, with a brothel on every corner.
