if I may propose for the Andrew/Amy Fix It Fic or the AAFIF if i may be allowed to call it: i've had this idea kinda floating in my head about andrew and physical touch and we know that he's had sex before and it was never a positive thing until amy. and part of that came from their first time being Not Really Sex but something like. the two of them sitting together and working through what Good Touching feels like. yes they've already had sex but there's just something about being intentional with andrew that i think is the key to their relationship. her asking him 'is this okay? does this feel good?' and waiting for him to give the yes or no.
omg discussion about the AAFIF (which is what it shall be known and tagged as from now on, you're a genius) I'm so happy!!! the more we reference it the sooner I may actually get the damn thing done because it is shaping up to be long.
I loooooooove that idea! it actually works in really nicely with a bit I just wrote which isn't about physical stuff but rather him having possible sensitivities/quirks/boundaries in regard to his mental situation* and her encouraging him to be comfortable asking for something he needs, even if he thinks she might not like it (hint: she doesn't mind). like if his senses are overloaded and he kind of needs to just be by himself in a different room for a bit, knowing she's not going to be upset when he asks her to Please Leave Me Alone (affectionate).
*shoutout and also screw you to this show for being infuriatingly inconsistent about what andrew's Deal is mentally. I am flying by the seat of my pants here.
this is too long because it's me so of course it is, so. cutting it.
I totally agree that him having the opportunity and encouragement to say what he does/doesn't like physically (even if what he likes ends up being most of it because it's Her) is so significant for him, just that act of someone caring enough to check and make sure, of someone wanting to know what he wants.
