[ Why on earth would he ask her and give her the opportunity to concretely make him aware that he's taking advantage of her? It's much better to simply feel like it might be happening, accept the guilt if it is and the benefits of it not being so.
His response to that though, is without hesitation at all. ] I always want you. [ Which just means there's more pause before the following. It's time for some lightheartedness again. ] Sexually. Purely.
thank you for reminding me i would never have thought to look closely at his shoulders otherwise
[ Because then she could inform him that he totally isn't taking advantage of her at all, but I suppose if he thinks he is anyways he wouldn't ask at all.
She can run with the lighthearted section of that, because leaving it for precisely its face value is something she's going to store away for later. To remember. ] Both at once? That seems hard.
[ They're okay, they can reacclimate quickly. It's not perfect, because he's not quite steady yet and things are still a little tense, but it's better than it could be. By far. ] Purely sexual. Other way around. Bite me.
[ They always do manage to reacclimate quickly. And right now she's just following his lead, really, however serious or not serious he wants it to be, because making him comfortable again is the majority of her goal here. She laughs a little bit at that, pushes a little harder at the knots in his muscles. ] Only if you bite me back, baby.
[ She makes a hum back, scoots a little closer so his head can rest in her lap if he wants to. ] I just sort of picked them up. I've always had good hands.
[ Initially, he won't take her up on that offer, but as she keeps kneading, he won't be able to help himself and he'll slowly tip back into it. ] I can believe that. You've always had good hands. Like some kind of Allstate paradigm.
[ A little snort of amusement out of her and she lifts one hand for a moment to ruffle his hair, smooth it back down again before she returns to massaging him. ] I can be Allstate. I can be their mascot.
[ He's not sure what to do with the ruffling since it's always been either her or someone from when he was like... seven, that did that. ] I'll make a call, see if they want to switch from Dennis, get you in as a spokesperson.
[ She tends to do it as one of those gestures she makes when she doesn't know how else to express how affectionate she feels towards him. ] Wouldn't that require spending time away, though? I didn't think this through, I don't know how I feel about that.
[ He doesn't have a problem with it, he likes it, he's just not ever sure what to do with it. ] Well you don't have to be, you can stay here and just be for me. I think I like that idea better anyway. I'm a selfish only child, I don't want to share my stuff.
[ That's okay, she'll probably do it enough over time that eventually he'll know what to do with it if simply by default. ] Normally I think I'd be obliged to say that's a bad thing, but I think in this instance I'm actually okay with such a mindset. Totally works for you.
[ That's both comfortable and horribly domestic. ] Thanks. I don't know how to change my mindset at this point anyway, it's a little settled. Not without a long vacation and nonelective surgery, anyway.
[ I feel like 'horribly domestic' should be their memoir title. ] That's okay, we'll be avoiding that in the future anyways so your mindset can just stay as is. Nice and good.
I'm fantastic at it. I'd demonstrate, but demonstrations tend to be intrusive and something I avoid doing to people I like. [ Not taking the bait, okay. ]
Please don't. [ Not that he thinks she would - she did after all just say that she wouldn't, and she never has - but he's backtracking and calming and still a little agitated. It's gonna be time to sit back up again in a little bit, but for right now he just reaches both arms back and around her, lacing his fingers at the small of her back. ] You are fantastic.
Never without your permission. [ Fairly seriously, because she means that and she wants him to know she does. Forcing any empathy on him without his consent is approximately the very last thing she would willingly do. But that gesture, what he says next brings a small smile to her face, and she looks down at him. ] Thanks. You too.
[ It's okay, he honestly doesn't think she ever will (unless like. he's lost and she needs to find him via empathy? thread!!!!!??????) ] Good role model. Are you really going to stay up?

For a moment, he's really not sure what to do with that answer. It's the one he was expecting, and yet. He's not sure what to do with it. ] Thank you.
