[He feels that warm and comforting sensation around him, and it makes him feel a surge of happiness and relief. Same with the smile and being pulled closer. If this was Clay's...well, whatever exactly this was supposed to be- then all that means Clay must be happy, right? And is he glad for that.]

[When Clay kisses him, he'll return it. His own free hand reaches up for Clay's cheek as well. He keeps the kiss light, mostly because well, microgravity is tough and this is a strange angle, even if it is sweet and warm.]

[When the kiss finally breaks, he stays close to Clay, his thumb moving along Clay's cheekbone.]

Listen...I'm always willing to hear more about you. Your past, your feelings, your dreams...[He glances around the area they're in, it was still hard to believe] Anything that's important to you, because you're important to me.

It's just...I want you to tell me these things when you're ready. Not when Atroma wants it. I can wait.

Okay?
