[ It is easier, not being watched. A little. The mattress sinks as he moves, maybe a little less than it should. He knows Jotaro can still feel where he's moving. But it helps.
It sinks next to Jotaro. Slightly at first - a hand - and then more. A weight moves across the bed to that spot. Shuffles into a condensed, almost-perfect shape. He's sitting on his calves, awkward and formal and careful. He ghosts a hand over Jotaro's cheek - not actually touching, but close enough to be felt as a presence. By the time it reaches his jaw, there are fingertips against his skin. By the shoulder, where the hand falls still, it's a weight against Jotaro.
That's step one. Steps 2 - n are just as slow and considered but sooner or later his torso is against Jotaro's. He's not quite figured out what to do with his legs yet, they don't stack quite so easily as torsos, but for the moment one is resting awkwardly on top of Jotaro's and one has fallen to the side. He's maybe three quarters of his usual weight. ]
Can't believe you gave up smelling like and ashtray only to start smelling like dog.
[ He says it quietly against Jotaro's collarbone, tucking himself neatly under his chin. ]
