[Lithuania's voice is a bit more nervous than this one usually sounds. He also speaks rather fast and clicks the feed off as soon as the words are out.]
I know it is, the priests always say that, and Poland is very religious... And it's about social rules, too, at this point. I just can't have it be this way. I know that it is wrong, and... and I don't want to lose him, too. And I have a girlfriend. I just want this to stop.
God's gotten pretty lax about it actually. Less fire and brimstone and more happiness. Anyway, you've got a girlfriend and you're still having these sexual feelings about your best mate?
[Being a shrink and priest is pretty hard to do. He kind of misses fucking with BB.]
[He sinces and nods, staring down at his hands. Having someone and thinking about someone else... that is one more sin on top of everything else. Even more since...]
Blimey mate. You've got some trouble there. You need to have a talk with your mate about it. If he's a best then he'll accept you either way. If not, sod 'um.
[Priestly, he had to think of something priestly to tell the guy. He couldn't just give him sensible advice and tell him to be on his way. He wanted penance for his sins.
Finally he spoke again.]
As for this sins business, those sexual feelings while having another. That's a big no, no in the lord's book. He would want you to solve the problem. You also need to leave an offering of food. Fast for two days.
[That isn't his only, but one of the major worries about that side of the problem by now.]
I... I don't want things to change between us. We've been close for a long time, if... I don't want things to change.
[He nods slowly at the men's next words.]
I will do that, thank you... I will try to find a way to not have those thoughts again. ...Does that mean that if I can't stop those dreams, that I have to leave her?
The word 'lust' is a tricky thing in His eyes. If the one you 'lust over' is the one you love, then that is not a sin. However if the one you 'lust over' is not the one you love, or is an object, then that is a sin.
Lusting over that which you love does not take you from Him. Lust in a more broad sense takes you from Him and His light. That is why it is a sin.
[Sirius was going to have a right laugh after all this. Not because of the poor bloke's plight, but really, the idea that HE would be a priest was just damn funny.]

[He sounds pretty desperate in this.]
I tried forgetting about it, but then the devil even invaded my dreams. I tried so hard, but... Pater, please, what can I do to get rid of this?
no subject
Why don't you want to? Because you believe it against God's will?

I don't do that! I know what he looks like naked, and it's not that what causes anything.
[Slowly shakes his head.]
...It really isn't, it's only things that are inside my head.

why?

Because if you're sneaking peeks then you've got a lustful interest.
