[You've got me all wrapped up does -- something, to him. It feels, against all logic, despite how sweet it is, a touch like dirty talk; there's something playful in the way Ryou phrased that, (something that, weirdly, makes Atem think of bodice-rippers, of oh no, you've got me, what are you going to do? but that's probably reading too much into it, he decides) and...the feeling it's giving Atem makes the bottom drop out of his stomach again.
Ryou won't be able to see slit-pupilled eyes dilate, going a little wider and a little darker; however, this close, he might be able to tell the difference between how Atem breathes when he's settled in for the long haul, ready to hold his boyfriend and maybe sleep, and how Atem breathes when he's thinking about getting that boyfriend all wrapped up and how pleased Ryou seems about that, and pushing back what his three-chambered heart is telling him is very, very right about this.
For a split second, Atem considers backing off.
But hasn't he wasted way too much time already holding back and second-guessing? Didn't it make them both miserable? He's been out of it for a week.
He can trust himself to walk the line between going after what he wants, and too much. No. He's not stopping.
Careful saying things like that!
[He backs up just enough so that he can get in front of Ryou's line of sight and look in his eyes. A clawed hand takes hold of Ryou's cheek, a thumb running over it.]
If you let me, it just might be.
[And Atem's entire tail pulls Ryou up and in for another hairsnake-y kiss, like how you'd pull someone in with your arms, only it's a limb wrapped around the entire body. He knows kissing while holding Ryou like this was how it got weird last time, but he's looking for it now, so, it'll be fine. Definitely. It's worth it, for how good it feels! He won't have this tail that much longer. He won't be able to hold someone the same way by tomorrow. So...]
