Let's do that, and see how it affects things.

... I'm not sure of what new limits I'd set? I trust you.

Well... maybe I should come up with a plan, and tell it to you ahead of time.

Mmh.

[ He's still thoughtful about it. ]

[ Fraser elbows him gently. ]

I'll talk about what I was thinking of you tell me what you're thinking.

[ Andy lets his head drop against Ben's shoulder. ]

Give me a minute to put my thoughts in order.

[ That's fine with Fraser. He takes Andy's hand and threads their fingers together, being quiet. ]

[ He feels ridiculous. Which is a sign he should just talk about it. ]

It is a bigger deal for me than it is for you, that you can just— get me there.

You mentioned that you don't have a lot of experience with it.

I don't trust easily.

You did mention that it freaks you out.

I might be having some cognitive dissonance too. I think I should be more alarmed than I am, and it keeps not happening, so I end up feeling weird and confused.

I can understand that. You trust me, but you don't entirely trust your trust in me.

[ He hadn't thought of it like that, but it makes sense. ]

... yeah, that sounds right.

[ Fraser squeezes his hand. ]

It's alright that it feels weird. And I hope you know that I'm honoured by your trust in me.

Your turn.

I think I'm just uncomfortable with... with, well, passion.

[ Andy deserves an award for managing to continue this conversation while the sentence 'I am falling for this man' runs on loop through his head. ]

With feeling it?

No... well. Yes, but...

[ He gestures helplessly. ]

I think I'm gonna need you to finish that thought, but you can take your time.

...

Sex scares me.

[ Andy meets his eyes and gives him a smile that's all mischief. ]

Well then, the obvious solution in this case is exposure therapy.

Andy.

[ He takes Ben's hands to pull them away from his face. ]

Ben.

It's not... that.
