Well, you ask how emotional the mage would get. That is a bit odd isn't it?
I mean, there'd be some pretty hefty emotions flowing around I'd imagine, so
the mage woud just pick up on them. It would depend on the mage in question
as to just how aroused they personally got, I wouldn't have the emotions
effects them in a tangible way (perhaps a background count of one or
something), but no direct effects.

If you _need_ a game-mechanic, I'd suggest requiring a Willpower roll
against a target number that you set, that depended on how intense
the union was.

But it sounds like it would be better left to role-playing - just
let the player know how stimulating it is, and let them play it
the way they feel.

Don't forget it's going to be second hand, though, and missing
lots of stimulation from the normal senses!

I've always felt that mages in SR should make _fantastic_ lovers,
when they cared to take the trouble to Assense.
