Huaisang's expression softens a little at his clear uncertainty. Leadership roles don't come to him easily or naturally; he's much more of a follower as demonstrated by the way he tended to trail along behind Wei Wuxian like a puppy looking for pets. He smiles though, relaxing a little. It's oddly reassuring that Jiang Cheng's just as fumbly about all of this as he is himself.

But at least, he's read things and viewed enough artwork to have a pretty clear idea of what goes where. And the first step to getting to any of that is getting undressed.

"Take off your robes," he says before kissing him again and this time it's driven less by hormones than genuine emotion.

Exactly what this new fluttery feeling in his chest whenever he thinks about Jiang Cheng means is currently beyond him but it also doesn't strike him as particularly important right now.

Huaisang gets up off of Jiang Cheng and starts to slowly disrobe, cheeks pink from a rather becoming blush as he bares all of his skin for his friend. When he's bathed with the other boys in the spring, Huaisang hasn't been particularly shy about showing his body to them. They pretty much all had the same parts, more or less. This is a little different though. It's intimate context, not a practical one.

Once he's naked, Huaisang sits down on the edge of the bed and waits for Jiang Cheng to catch up.
