"What if the other person doesn't reciprocate their feelings?" I asked cautiously. "I hope it isn't forced."

He chuckled. "No. Not at all, even if there is a power imbalance… unless the other party is very weak mentally wise. In any case, it's the one with the lustful feelings that would try to avoid such a thing since it could go wrong. They are usually at the mercy of the other person since their judgement at times would be clouded."

There was a grim pause before he continued, "But what you fear does happen, but luckily it isn't that frequent. At least the punishment is the same all over Rinne. Execution. Not even the vilest person would sexually force themselves on another individual."

His smile returned. "So don't worry. Even if the sap doesn't work on Fashire, no harm should come to you."

Wait. What? 

"What do you mean if it doesn't work?!"
