Gentlemen don't ask about the details of biological processes, but doctors do and it's a very narrow thing that he doesn't end up asking what she means by that in a more personal sense. Lucky for him that she gives him a list to focus on. "I mean, it's not like this place really offers the support for that kind of thing." He wonders if Liv and Major would still be zombies here, but that just brings an ache of wishing that they were here so he could find out.

"You're still pretty incredible, immortal or not," Ravi tells her, seeing as he's come to appreciate her company more than just about anyone else around them.

Helen smiled a bit at that, strangely shy. It wasn't in her nature to be shy, normally, but when the compliment came from someone she cared about she somehow managed to revert to the woman she'd been at the bottom of the 19th century instead of the thoroughly modern woman she was now.

"Well, I happen to think you're fairly incredible yourself, Ravi. I suppose like finds like, yes?"

"We are both scientists dealing with the odd," Ravi admits, "we both have a healthy appetite for sex without having needed to let complications get in the way. Bonus points for us, for not turning it into high school melodrama." He could go on and on, but he feels like actions will speak louder than words, so he leans in to kiss her, trying not to let them get bogged down on the too-serious. Not really for her, but more for him, he's appalling when it comes to that.

Luckily Helen wasn't concerned with him finishing quickly. It wasn't about how good it was every time, at least not with Ravi. At first, certainly, it had been just sex but now it was about more than satisfying a biological urge. She had feelings for him that were more than just friendship and she cared enough to not worry about whether or not sex was perfect; she wanted him just as he was.

"Let it go, then. I'll follow. I always do."

Helen laughed a little and gave him a lopsided grin. It felt very girlish and ridiculous, all told, but Ravi did make her feel very young in a way she hadn't in a long, long while. It was a refreshing feeling. She reached up and brushed a lock of hair back off his forehead.

"Fingers will do nicely," she said, a little out of breath still. "If you'd be so inclined?"

Helen laughed but it trailed off into a sigh as the promise of his fingers was fulfilled - the long, slender shape of them was absolutely perfect for this particular activity and she was already so, so close.

"Mouth, yes. I just didn't know how you felt considering...I'm already a mess." It was breathless and utterly unlike her but she'd already been worked up and primed for this so stringing proper sentences together was becoming a bit too difficult for her to manage.
