Rey has... questions
“Jess!” Rey whisper... shouted, sort of. Thankfully there weren’t a lot of other people on their side of the mess. “You need to help me!”
Despite her best attempts, Jess blushed fractionally thinking what sort of help she’d *like* to give the Jedi girl, but mostly she managed to play it cool. Nod slightly. Realise she had no idea what was going on. “Uh. Rey? Help you with what?”
“Sex!”
Well. Jess turned... red. Definitely red. That’s our Rey, though, she thought, straight to the point. Sort of. What did she even mean. What did a scavenger from Jakku even know about sex... shit. Jess thought about the smuggler planet she’d grown up on, and the kinds of things girls left on their own could know... Rey was a fighter. A jedi. She controlled stormtroopers. She was badass as hell with a staff. Jess wasn’t going to think about what might not be. Mostly. Oh fuck, Rey had said something and she’d missed it. “Sorry?” She ventured cautiously.
“Would it be easier to demonstrate?”
Wow, Jess thought, what the hell did I miss her saying. “Uh...”
“You and Poe could show me?”
Well, at least this was sort of familiar territory? I mean, doing it with Poe, fine. Doing it with Poe for others to watch, also fine. Or join in. But... Jesus, usually people with *way* more sexual experience than she found herself hoping Rey had. “I... maybe?”
Rey was starting to turn a bit red, too. Maybe the concept, or at least the way the rest of the galaxy was socialised about it, was starting to catch up to her.
“Look, Rey,” Jess started “what do you actually know so far about sex? And what... what specifically are you wanting to learn from watching me and Poe?” Jess might have squeaked a little on the last few words, but it could have been worse, she told herself.
Rey looked down at her hands, trembling very slightly, and instantly setting off all of Jess‘ protective feelings again. “Uh, sex is how babies are made, obviously, but its also something that two or more beings do together for the pleasure of one or both of them. Sometimes for the exchange of portions or shelter or protection, and sometimes because they both seem to think its worth it?” Rey trailed off with a slight note of confusion in her voice.
Yep, definitely activating Jess‘ protective instincts. Equally, the worst that definition seemed to imply was semi-consensual prostitution, and given all of the possibilities, Jess was... feeling cautiously relieved. Worried, maybe, but not as on edge as when the conversation had first started. She nodded at Rey, hoping she’d continue, not wanting to complicate things before she had a more complete picture.
“Uh, so, from a physical point of view it mostly seems to involve beings sticking one bit of themselves into another bit of someone else? From my point of view specifically, uh, people sticking various bits of themselves in me? In, in my mouth or genital region mostly?” Rey was working through it in kinda a blushing haphazard way, but still seeming, mostly, put together about it.
Jess, again, was seeing a lot of notes of relief. Aaaaand also the feeling that sex ed didn’t really exist on Jakku given all of the *gaps* in this girls ideas, but, well, Jess as a young teenager hadn’t really appreciated all of the possibilities either. And Rey, well, she might be an older teenager, but you couldn’t really say she’d been living in the centre of galactic society, exactly, or even where there were an overwhelming number of humans. “That’s, I mean, that’s an ok summary. Its a good starting point.”
Rey looked down, redder and a bit lost.
“Really!” Jess said. “I’m sorry if it came off as patronising, I’m not meaning to, oh kriff Rey, why me, I have all of the tact of a nerfherder with a head injury!”
Rey giggled. And giggled. For a good few minutes, but it had been the best way to break the tension. “Its ok Jess, I kinda asked you because I figured you’d... you’d accidentally actually tell me stuff. You wouldn’t just treat me with kid gloves. And... you’re pretty. I’d like to see what you look like naked, I’ve never seen another human woman.”
Whoof! Jess felt the impact of that one. Stars, our girl Rey, one surprise after another. But if she was already blushing this much... Jess grinned happily at Rey.
“I’d... I’d like to see you too, if you’re ok with that.”
“Yeah!” Rey grinned infectiously. “I guess I’ve heard you sleep with girls a lot. I don’t really know what that means... I guess I’m curious. And I think I’d like you to show me. But I kinda want to start with Human Males. If nothing else, well, it does give me a chance to watch first before having to perform..” And then being Rey, she stuck her tongue out at Jess.
Yep, Jess was a goner. But a very happy goner. And damn if she wasn’t going to convince Poe they were fucking for this gorgeous desert Jedi.
