just………… thinking about all the different ways a character might touch their partner’s nose:
- with the tip of their own nose, gently nuzzling
- with their lips giving it an affectionate peck
- playfully flicking it with a finger
- lightly tracing the rims of the nostrils (making them flicker and flare at the touch)
- slowly caressing a fingertip down the bridge
- pinching it shut to stave off a sneeze
- teasingly rubbing or tapping it to help a sneeze along
- purposefully massaging to soothe an itch
- purposefully massaging to make the itch worse >:D
- “oh, your poor nose”, an instinctive, tender touch when they notice how painfully red their partner’s nose is (either finding it glowing hot with inflammation, or shockingly cold from being out in harsh weather)
