[ There's a sarcastic snort on the other end at that last bit. Somehow he doesn't think that was very effective. ]
Yes, you're on the right track. When a person's sign's in power, they become more sexually desirable. Even people you never would have considered before look much more attractive than usual.
I've got this kind of effect on me right now. [ This next part almost draws a sigh from him. ] So you understand why I can't meet you in person twice a week. I doubt you'd be paying attention to half of what I had to say anyway.
[ It makes sense when laid out just so, why, in spite of the somber subject matter and determination to help the aforementioned friend avoid unwanted advances, Otonashi felt pangs of curious desire to move closer to the blond model. He had passed off as Kise sounding too much like someone dear to him in a time of need, or loneliness, or selfishness--
It's almost relieving to hear someone knowledgable confirm the reason it had taken so much willpower to grapple with. Almost, if it weren't also so frustrating. ]
I'm not like that! I wouldn't stop paying attention because of some curse or... w-whatever this is!
[ He can only sigh, though, realizing too late that maybe an outburst isn't the answer. ]
Still, I don't want to force you in that position. [ He sounds relatively calm, despite being so disappointed about this abstinence himself. As stern as he is with Otonashi most of the time, he really does like him, and he enjoys being able to teach him about a subject that they're both passionate about.
He wants to try to make things work, if he can. ]
Maybe we could improvise. Do a video lecture or something.

[ Though an imperfect solution, he seems to understand. The arrangement at all is a favor, so he happily accepts what he can get. ]
voice;
[ And they'll very likely run into each other anyway. He's got a whole month to slip up, and he's not going to be staying in his shared hut 24/7. ]
voice;
[ Ohh, will they ever. Festival, clinic, out and about... the possibilities are endless with Otonashi's level of activity. ]
