[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.]

Is there a Christian priest in this place?

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.

But... But I can't lose him!

[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?

Might have to. You need to talk to your mate too. Nothing's going to be like it was if you're sneaking peeks at 'im in the shower.

[His eyes go wide, and he shakes his head violently, wringing his hands nervously.]

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.

Maybe keep an eye on it then. If the peek sneaking starts, then you've got it pretty bad.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Then I have...

[Panic panic ohmygod panic]

why?

[cockofthewok.livejournal.com]

[Have you been sneaking peeks my child?]

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

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't - he's my best friend - lust's a sin!

[This is getting worse with ever moment, isn't it? Oh God, what did he do...]

[cockofthewok.livejournal.com]

Lusting over what is not yours to lust over is a sin. Lusting over what is yours is not.

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

Lust itself is a sin.

[Sounding a bit insecure about this. The man is really strange... but he's a priest... is he?]

[cockofthewok.livejournal.com]

[CRAP. He really needed to go to church more.]

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.

[Hey, he thought that was a damn good save.]

[watchful-knight.livejournal.com]

[...what. He'll have to think about this. Normally he'd ask Poland, but he can't really ask about this, can he? It's way too dirty.]

I... I will think about it. Thank you, pater.

[Sign of the cross, and he gets up.]

[Sirius returns the sign of the cross.]

Go in peace. May His light shine upon you.

[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.]

[Bows curtly and leaves.]
