[ Totally fine I can't remember why I didn't edit and fix that.
She moves on to let his other hand free, still watching him, and she's moved down to his feet when he turns to look at her. She's still watching him, a small pleased smile on her face because it worked, and because he said he feels good, and because she definitely did not expect it to go that well really. ] Mmm. Pretty tired too. You can get some rest if you want.
[ He's just staying still, really. He stretches a little bit as different limbs are freed, but mostly he's just sort of content to stay where he is. He's watching her watching him and that's not all that abnormal, he's used to being watched, but right now he doesn't feel the characteristic need to perform for it. Usually a sense of showmanship comes to light, but at the moment he's just still... Calm. ] What are you gonna do?
[ She really quite likes the stillness and calmness to him right now. Lack of motion with him can be worrying, but it can also be an indication of just how comfortable he feels, and this feels much more like that. That he's relaxed at all after that is a really good sign, she feels. ] I think that will depend a lot on what you'd like me to do. [ Because she wants to stay, wants to be touching him, but she's not going to do that unless it's what he wants to. ]
[ She's done a magnificent job making him feel comfortable, especially in light of how distinctly uncomfortable she'd made him feel from the get-go. It's all still something he's going to have to take some time to fully digest and swallow and integrate, but right now he's not working on that. Right now he's in the happy state of having accepted it initially, and that's all he has to do right now. He's done, and he's exhausted, and he's calm, and he's safe, and she's here, and she makes all of those other states even stronger in various ways and methods.
But he pauses there, because she's asking him what he wants now, after having decided so clearly what he needed. The switch is a lot, but even with that he's able to answer her pretty quickly, fairly firmly. He holds his hand out to her a bit, another very short pause, because this is another thing he's not that great with. ] Stay? [ And recovery. ] Unless you've got anything else.
[ She really likes the look on his face right now and the general way he feels. Really it all went far, far better than she had expected it to go, and she's pretty happy with that. There's relief in her and she knows some of it is leaking, knows that she's not keeping as tight a hold over how pleased she is with how this went as she'd like, but she can't bring herself to care, not with his hand held out to her and the tone of his voice. ]
Nothing more important than you. [ Firm and calm as she takes his hand, moves towards him so that she can lie against his side. ] It can all wait.
lmao me too
