A/N: this all started with me posting "imagine sexting in the exe universe" on tumblr and i just had to do something about it thats basically the end of it
"Netto! Are you…actually thinking of doing that?"
The now young man wondered briefly if the person that he was composing the particular email to was having the same problem as him. It took Rockman quite a while to finally get it through his head that Netto was, in fact, dating Enzan Ijuuin. The first time he heard about it, he actually thought it was an outright lie or a joke, and he wasn't even entirely sure if he was wrong even two years later. How could a rival in elementary school have developed into something like this?
And he couldn't even imagine how long it must have taken for Blues to accept…
The worst part of it only happened recently. Over time, they'd become more and more comfortable with talking about the more intimate parts of Netto's love life, which opened up quite a few opportunities both for the development of the relationship and for more awkward moments at Rockman's expense. Enzan, being the vice president of a rather active company, found himself traveling more than he wanted to, which led to more contact between him and Netto through their PETs. For around ten minutes now, Enzan and Netto had been emailing each other back and forth, and you couldn't exactly do that without the use of your Navis.
That was, more or less, the reason that Rockman ended up helping Netto conceive an email that was far from innocent.
"I'd send it to him through regular mail if it didn't take three days to get there," Netto quietly explained, "and I'm not about to do this with him over the course of a week."
"Why don't you just call him?" Asked Rockman desperately, hoping that he wouldn't have to actually face Blues to send any more messages.
"Call him? No way! I can't just face him like that…it's not that simple, y'know?" Going red in the face, the young man averted his eyes. Rockman promptly sighed in defeat.
Lowering his voice, Rockman tried at his argument once more. "How is this any different? Just because you can't see him, you're still saying some strange things…" In absolute, complete honesty, the Net Navi couldn't possibly imagine that Enzan would enjoy the humiliating and even degrading things that Netto was saying, but he'd believe just about anything after the news of the relationship. Hey, what if he was into that kind of thing? Obviously, he was, if he was still responding, even if Rockman had never read anything that Enzan said in reply.
Something told him he didn't want to.
With a moment of hesitation, Netto furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. "It's not the same! It's not like I could say this stuff to his face. That's why we email." Even to him, it didn't make sense, but he wasn't about to actually have phone sex with Enzan any time soon. It was easier to just speak to him through text, really, and he had a feeling that the other man felt the same way.
With what felt like the millionth sigh that day, Rockman deleted what little they had. "Alright, let's try this again…"
