"Absolutely not!" She got up, glaring at him. "Did you really think I would say ok to that?! I may not be a devout follower of genism anymore, but this is still impure and wrong, and I won't accept it!"
"I'm not saying I'm actually going to sleep with them," Rui gestured with his hands for her to relax. "Conception can occur without direct insemination, you know?

Her expression softened. "…Still, I don't like it."
Rui heaved a sigh. "I know, I don't like it either. But it's not a burden that you can bear yourself. Although…"
He shrugged. "We could make it work."
Her expression shifted as the bronze skin of her cheeks reddened a little. She averted her gaze with a hint of embarrassment. "Are you saying you want me to bear your children?"
