[He won't back down. His needs are minor and nothing he can't take care of himself in a very short amount of time given his new fantasy fuel. Having her weak and happy and hearing the spark back in her words though... that feeds his soul and he needs that so much more. So he leans down to kiss her, kiss gentle again but firm instead of light the way it has been and he grabs an extra towel as he chuckles and carries her into the bedroom.]

That's the kind of threat I don't mind. [Gentle, he sets her down sitting up on the bed and proceeds to gather her hair up, wrapping the towel around it and folding it over. Her hair has gotten wonderfully long and he does what he can to get as much of its length as he can wrapped up before using the towel around her to gently get her body dry and then pulling aside his bed covers for her to slip in.]

Just relax. I'm going to go clean up and get dry and then I'll be right back to join you, okay? I've got to make sure I'm there to keep you warm, right?
