[That comment makes Gilbert smile, especially the helpless word formation gets to him. But then again, he lays his eyes briefly at his left metal arm and his smile becomes even wider.
He always wanted to be needed and while he experienced that back in his world not just once, here it's different. So much different. Gilbert is getting used to it little by little, but he's really thankful for all the moments he can help Jiroutachi or even spoil him a little.]
You don't have to tell me. I'm really bad with words.
[It shouldn't be news to Jirou, though. Gilbert sighs softly as he continues the massage.]
Let's stay at home for a few days without going anywhere, alright?
[He may not understand why Jiroutachi's giggling (maybe he's just that drunk already, it wouldn't be anything surprising...) but it makes him smile softly.]
[He realizes his bottle is empty and puts it aside. Only to turn around and press that naked wet body of his against Gil as he wraps his arms around him.]
[Gilbert realizes that the alcohol is gone just a little while before Jirou's arms circle around him; despite being fully clothed, he doesn't pull away.]
Should I bring you more? Personally, I think you should stop, but...
[Jiroutachi may be a heavy drinker, but it doesn't make Gil less of a worrywart.]
Be more careful, would you! I know you're drunk and...
[It's pointless, isn't it? Giving him a lecture now. At least that means Gilbert will have less rinsing to do. With that done, he goes to grab a towel and starts drying his hair...which is prone to take a while as well.]
[Jirou giggles a bit then relaxes some more so his hair can be dried a bit before he gets out. He knows there's a lot to manage even in this drunken state.]
[He pouts but at least goes to curl on his side, Gil still in his arms so he can busy his face against him. He just wants to breathe Gil's scent because it doesn't smell like where he's been stuck in.
It's comforting to him. Something he'll realize later when he's not quite as drunk as he is now.]
[But the kiss makes him smile and he actually goes to settle this time, even wiggling down a bit so he can tuck his head under Gil's chin. He knows that he's the taller one of the two of them but he wants the affection right now.]
[Gilbert lets him settle and even shifts a little to make it easier for him to do so. That's not the only thing, though, as he sneaks in a few more kisses. This day was a rather long one for Jirou, after all.]
