Huaisang welcomes the gentleness. Given how long it's been since he's been with anyone, it's probably for the best to ease him into physical intimacy again. Even if this is moving pretty fast, they are consenting adults and attracted to one another.

"That feels really nice," he murmurs encouragingly, eyes drifting closed. "I love the way your fingers feel."

He kind of likes how rough the callouses feel on his skin.
