[ he mutters the response almost automatically, not even entirely paying attention to it for the fact that everything else proves to be a lot more distracting. he knows that he shouldn't be touching her like he is, that he should really be respecting her personal space right now but he can't seem to withdraw his touch, almost as if magnetized, and it seems like she's not drawing back either.
and all of that in itself is a bad sign, particularly because he knows what's happened in the past when their hands couldn't restrain from touching one another.
as always, he stops thinking when he's with her, never sure if it's credited to something else or if it's just her and whatever damn effect she has when she shows up, like her presence is just a clear sign that shit's about to get fucked for him, one way or another — usually pretty literally.
