[The bedroom is absolutely a judgement free-zone. And her mind absolutely goes to certain places the moment that Armin asks after her. She lifts her head, tilting her head with an almost shy smile. Her cheeks paint a faint pink.]
Anything, Armin, you know that.
[She settles on the bed, ankles crossed and hands folded over her lap. Is she deliberately trying to look cute.]
[Why try and look cute when it is clearly something that comes effortlessly to her? Or at least, that is what Armin would say if asked about it. In his humble opinion (not biased at all) Angel is cute every moment of the day.
Armin reaches up to rub the back of his neck.]
It's actually about Sasha...
[Which is... probably not what Angel was expecting him to say.]
[That is not at all what she might have expected. She straightens up a little, coquettish posturing all but forgotten. There's a faint glimmer of concern in her gaze. She's always been a little worried over Sasha, but trying to express it was another matter entirely.]
[Broadly speaking, things are all right. A little embarrassing maybe, but if the worst any of them has to deal with is being less experienced than their partner, then their lives are going pretty swell.]
It's-- I don't know if you know yet, but she and Jean started dating.
[As far as Angel is concerned, that's just normal couple behavior. Good on them for having great communication!
Or... maybe not so great, as she's sure to find out.]
I had seen some... indications, but I did not want to assume. Arceus knows we spent a great deal of personal time together before our relationship began. [Her expression wavers.] Are they having difficulties?
[Someone was clearly not expecting that. Her brows lift high on her forehead.]
I was not aware that she was... unfamiliar. [Though, maybe she should have been, considering the hoops Armin had jumped through before they settled into their own sort of intimacy.]
But, ah, that is actually what I wanted to ask you. Do you think-- you don't have to if this is too personal or anything but... do you think you could talk to Sasha too? I mean, you are a girl, and Sasha is a girl.
[Truly the most astute mind in the Survey Corps.]
I was thinking maybe you would be able to... emphasize better with her? About the girl side of things.
You mean... Explain sex from the feminine perspective?
[Oh boy, her cheeks are burning pretty bright at this point. It was a task getting comfortable enough with Armin! Now she has to break it down for another person?]
It should not be too much trouble, I don't think? Have you already mentioned asking me?

It's more that, uh, Sasha had some worries. Of an, ah... private nature and--
[He's just hemming and hawing away here isn't he? Embarrassing though it may be, he should just--]
Sasha asked me for sex advice.

I'm not sure I did anything extraordinary, but I had very good people teaching me. You included.
