As a bystander can I just comment your characters sexual orientation shouldn't be their defining plot. It's what I got from what I read and I'm not the GM so hey, what do I know. But Straight Chars don't revolve around solely being straight and that isn't their defining trait so it should work both ways.

I mean he may do things differently but from roleplays, especially with the likes with this scope shouldn't hinge upon romance too heavily or they'll end up seeming corny.
