DSL:
Yet another reason it's oftentimes a good idea to simply be content knowing you've done a kind thing.
Gyrre:

--- Quote from: Christophelous on 17 Nov 2020, 19:43 ---Why'd he want to donate anonymously if he was just gonna bring it up the first chance he got? And why didn't he just say "I'd rather not say"?

Because there was no gracious way out of the question as soon as May asked it - she would've kept badgering him to disclose the amount.
My guess is he brought up the donation since he wanted May to make an informed decision around 'pursuing a sexual relationship with the man who supplied part of the money for my new body'.

As someone lacking in the social graces department, tact is also very important. Sven's approach seems to lack this.
Oenone:
Honestly, if her knowing AND her not knowing would make Sven feel like sex is unethical, he should call the sex part of their relationship off. It seems like he painted himself into a moral quandary of a corner.

It seems to be heading that way anyway
Christophelous:

It's not generally known in the QCverse that this is possible. Yay asked Roko to keep quiet about it for this reason.

I wasn't referring to Yay's ability to be a multiplicity, I mean more like switching into a different body like a person would change into a suit (or more apt for this scenario, lingerie)

I get what you're saying, Farideh, but I'm gonna have to go with Gyrre on this one. It's not really tactful to immediately bring it up. Not that I expect much tact out of either of them, so I guess I should just be glad that Sven is growing up enough to show consideration, if not tact.
