Summary
Lysis and Alexias spend a lazy summer afternoon in pleasure. Lysis cannot keep up with Alexias' insatiable libido.
This is really more about love than sex. It's rather sweet.

Summary
"I knew not whether to thank Eros for giving man love or Prometheus for giving man fire for, at that moment, I could not distinguish between the two."
Takes place on the day when Alexias reaches manhood, directly after the scene with his mother at the end of Chapter 16. Alexias seeks out Lysis to share his special night - his first night as a man, and doubts Lysis' love when his proposal to share their bodies is rejected.

Summary
The scene where I have always presumed Alexias and Lysis consummated their love. It was only ever implied in the book, but I took the liberty of making it clear.
