3 physical features my muse likes about yours
hands. arms: soft, warm. sometimes, the pressure on his back is immeasurable, impossible to overlook. when it starts to feel like that, when the game starts to feel more tedious than anything else, he knows to step back, and where else would he step back if not into her arms? she is grounding. her presence soothes him like no one else’s. all it really takes is her hands on his shoulders, or on either side of his face, or holding his own hands, or wrapped around him. he isn’t a very touchy person, but there is unfamiliar comfort in her embrace that comes from not knowing what it is like to be cared for
smile: i think he notices this a lot because he isn’t a smiler. but with her, he can’t help smiling back. i know we’ve established that everyone thinks it’s kind of funny when they see him interact with her compared to with anyone else because he’s almost a different person, but it’s true. she smiles, and his heart melts. he’d do anything to see that smile
laughter: choosing to believe that this is where it started. this is what he noticed first. the initial interview was done as a favor. he intended to introduce himself to her, answer her questions, and make it home—all within a couple of hours. when he gets there, the friend who set the interview up is there to make introductions. and she smiles (see: above) and she laughs, and his heart does has that little oh no moment.
