you know, it's funny, I see Sunny as such a simple boy that he generally isn't thinking about creating more atmosphere via location. It's like, the sex itself is so overwhelming and all-consuming, that it's hard to think past the literal act of it happening. In a way, it's already derelict to be fucking Mari behind their parents' backs in the house. Therein already lies: risk, tension, and a familiar location being altered by the act of sex. The livingroom couch and kitchen counter hit different, after a while.

I also think it takes a minute for Sunny to even have a mind capable of conceptualizing things as particular as the edging scenario I discussed in a few other asks, where he's laying under Mari's desk while she does homework and pawing idly at him during. It's like, THAT takes a rather inspired moment of thought for Sunny. Step 1 is being able to think about wanting to do different particular acts with her, a blowjob like this, or, fingering her in this position, etc. And then thinking about things he wants to say to her & things he wants to hear that he hasn't before. Steadily loading... particular desires, wants. He's a bit slow for these things, as a humble 12 yo boy navigating sex with sister. His turbo virgin stat means things aren't so immediately prevalent in the mind.

But I do think after some stewing, a couple of urges manifest. I think the first is 'unactionable'; it's Sunny at school, wishing he could scamper off and have sex with Mari mid-day. This isn't very feasible because Sunny is middle school aged while Mari is likely in her first or second year of high school, so they're probably in separate buildings for their school days. There's no way to reconvene in a bathroom stall, or under a stairwell, or what-have-you... No behind the bleachers shenanigans. But I think as Sunny is at school and, horny, he finds himself gazing at areas that would be good for a quick fling. Oooh if only. You know. But unfortunately it won't be until he's a freshman and Mari's a senior that anything like that could occur... And that thought is so far-off it would leave Sunny forlorn. *sighs deeply while staring out window*

This however, could transition to something more applicable... the fantasy of both him and Mari skipping school together, and having the day to themselves. Something appealing about the thought of them meandering around Faraway, in the more woodsy areas behind the playground and on the outskirts of the lake hideout, or behind their house, in the denser brush of the backyard. I think right behind the house becomes more appealing... like further back than the treehouse even, around thick bushes and tree coverage. I think... a LOT about the later chapters of Oyasumi Punpun, where Punpun and Aiko are having a lot of sex, and in one instance they're out in the woods, with Aiko bent over, hands on a tree while being plowed from behind. My mind gravitates to visuals like this... Mari and Sunny in a little pocket of the woods, shaded from the sun, while people are at work and kids are at school. This feels fairly actionable for Sunny, a needle he could thread, as I think Mari would be very tempted to skip school with him if he dared to propose it. And from there it'd be easy to wander into secluded areas, as they are trying to not attract much attention or be spotted by anyone that could tattle on them anyhow. I think Mari would REALLY delight in Sunny being forward enough to initiate anything also, and they could create a feedback loop back and forth of getting excited by what they are doing. Two teen siblings making out in the woods... can it get any more potent (for their little rich kid brains...)

I think Omori has a little more capacity for thinking of entire set-pieces, atmospheres, but actually might be more helpless about how to accomplish it? He's mm... not as good at existing in reality and making plans that account for specific times of day and schedules. But I think Omori would really like the atmosphere of a late night, empty playground fuck... Dusk, light almost disappearing entirely from the sky, dead silence, no one around. The silhouettes of trees and play structures, familiar yet eerie. I think it'd be genuinely scary, heart-racing, make him jumpy to be in even, but also that he'd be enthralled by this all simultaneously. I think Sunny is a little more of a wuss than Omori wwww and is less willing to experience something that might be scary and strange... but Omori has enough of an allure to such a concept. The poetic brain likes atmosphere, let's say. Tempted by the potential adrenaline of such a rendezvous. The liminal space of a completely empty playground... You might see the skulking shape and gleaming eyes of stray cats, lingering about. Wanna see Mari braced against the metal bars of a jungle gym. And so on. This would take more planning and conscious effort, I think it would take Omori describing this to Mari for her to be like "whoa..." and assist in making it a reality...? I realize, in general, for Omori pursuing things like this, I imagine him needing Mari's help and joint effort often enough.

i would like to say, that as I tap my Sunny&Omori brain(s), I find that places like the lake hangout spot itself or treehouse rank rather low on desired locations to smang. It's like, I think there's almost this aversion to the way the spaces are generally associated with the whole friend group? It's kind of 'everyone's' treehouse, which means having sex in it is almost... inappropriate. Perhaps the raw brain does not desire to see everyone's belongings while fucking, l-lol... "now's not the time". And, ah, the thought of someone swinging by or trying to climb up while they're in the middle of something, feels simultaneously too likely and unappealing. Meanwhile, the lake spot is quite hard for both Sunny and Mari to visit physically after his near-death experience. I think even if they became acclimated to water and swimming again, THAT particular place holds no real temptation.

If I were to psychoanalyze Sunny further, I would say that... intimacy and sexuality pursued with Mari marks a joint effort in closeness, which evokes more of their past than their present social circumstance. It's about Mari and Sunny missing the past, when it was just the two of them, and wanting to abandon things like expectation, school, social pressures, to instead be with one another more. Hangouts become a bit more on the decline, as Mari is less incentivized to arrange them, and the friend group kind of quietly simmers into more contained, smaller interactions, instead of the 6-way hangouts they were doing before. So it becomes more of a situation where Kel and Hero swing by casually, or Aubrey visits, instead of them all planning a big outing together. This is all more Sunny's 'speed'... he benefits from things being more contained, and for him and Mari to have a LOT of time together alone afterwards. I think the treehouse kind of is the peak of symbolizing this group togetherness that Sunny doesn't actually... want, need, or desire in the long run. He was kind of fussy the day it was built and only got so much out of it.

so, in the end, the most desirable locations to have sex with that aren't just home, would be separate from these memories of friends...! more sequestered and private.
