I can see a particularly manipulative (Hellstrom, Landa) or sociopathic (Stiglitz) character stopping halfway though the sex to have a rambling philosophical discussion, especially if there is a distinct power dynamic in which they top. Stiglitz not so much unless he's on top of some random SS/SD officer and going to kill him after the sex, because there's a convincing case for mad rambling about the switch in power there.
If it's a prompt that wants an R-rated fic but not PWP, I think it is possible to write something elegant if the sex is non-gratuitous, if each action shows a precise facet of the central characters minds'. Of course this is all easier said than done.
