sexual intercourse

i told kai i would be giving away some of his books to my friends' kids. one of them would be alek. "who's alek?", he asked, tita xty's and tita burns' kid. how did that happen, he asked again. "sexual intercourse?" hmmm, no. not that way.

then a little while later he asked if jesus really had a child, because he's into "angels and demons" now. that's what some people say, i told him.

kai: with whom?
me: with magdalene, they say
kai: how did that happen? sexual intercourse?
me: i supposed so, that's how babies are made.
kai: but what about virgin mary? how did she get pregnant? sexual intercourse too?
me: (inhale, len. then, exhale) uhm, raped by the holy spirit?.... (TOINK, KABLOG, TGSSK, EUINK me.)

damn it, how am i supposed to explain that. end of conversation for now.
