The man looks human, rather than like a ball of tentacles or something, and he doesn't even have horns or wings or a tail. 

"Kyeo and Sarham?" he says. 

"That's us. I'm Sarham."

"Nice to meet you both. I've received information on your world from Milliways. Can you each talk through the problem that's bringing you here today?"

"I appear to have 'trauma induced erectile dysfunction'."

"Which, like, it's fine -"

"It's fine? Why are we here if it's fine?"

"I think I'd like to hear Kyeo's perspective on the problem first."

"Which," Kyeo goes on, "I had been under the impression was not fine. And we are here instead of going to someone on the planet where we live because people there are less likely to be 'culturally competent'. And apparently being from another universe will help. Somehow."

"Well, I know that I'm not culturally competent, which is better than someone who thinks they're culturally competent and isn't."

"If you say so." Kyeo appears to think he's done now.

"Sarham, what's the problem from your perspective?"

"I actually wouldn't say there's a problem so much as - looming possible future problems, that I would like us to get on track to handle before they're serious."

"Can you unpack that a bit?"

"So like, there's our sex life, which is fine for the time being but may wind up seeming limited as time goes on, and there's - he either wants or feels vaguely obligated to have kids and I don't really want them, and we need to decide where to live when I graduate because I don't envision spending the rest of my life on Outer Sohaibek but I think he's nervous about going to Kular with me. Also we have a small cult fandom and that is fine so far but I could see it getting awkward."

"It sounds like Sarham has identified more potential issues than Kyeo has. Kyeo, what do you think about the things Sarham brought up?"

"I am not really clear on the way in which things like that become problems - like, we aren't going to get pregnant or anything, so I don't think we're going to somehow wind up with a baby Sarham didn't want even if I don't understand why he doesn't want one - but I expect taking his word for it to be a reasonable thing to do."

"Sarham, have you tried to explain how you think those things will become problems?"

"I didn't get very far. I'm usually okay at explaining stuff to Kyeo but I got sort of - tongue-tied about it with this stuff."

"Can I ask you why you become tongue-tied or will you also become tongue-tied about that?" 

"I think... when I'm explaining other people, third parties, galactic society, all that, it's easy to position all the constraints as things that we can't affect ourselves? But when I'm worried about how the two of us will feel and what the two of us will do he'll just kind of look at me like, well, how about we don't do that then, and I am not confident in this strategy so I wanted to come here, but apparently I accidentally communicated dissatisfaction with the sex thing which was not my intention."

"You're not dissatisfied with the sex situation but you're worried you might be in the future?"

"...I am satisfied with the sex situation on a medium-term basis but would be sort of sad if it was how things were forever and am suspicious that Kyeo won't find it satisfying forever either."

"My understanding is that the first issue that needs to be dealt with is that you two are having trouble communicating with each other about what issues may or may not exist in the future. My proposed approach is that maybe if you explain it to me, an uninvolved stranger from an Earth that doesn't even have spaceships, maybe it will be easier and less emotionally laden."

"Yeah, that seems reasonable, where do we start with that?"

"Kyeo, what did you understand Sarham to say when he was talking about why he has trouble communicating about this stuff?"
