he will attempt to do so, but try not to be gross about it? he's so worried? she smells really nice? hopefully he doesn't have bad breath? hello? does he need to ask for more mouthwash at all times just in case he needs to gulp it down in case a pretty lady suddenly holds his face?]
[he'll reach up to hold onto her hands then, fingers wrapping around her wrists to gently pull them away from his face as his expression turns concerned]
... You really don't have to do something like that for me. Not if you don't mean it.
We're strangers, aren't we? And I know that this place is supposed to be about... uh, indulging or whatever.
Um, I want to help you if I can if that's what you need from me...! [because it's a man's duty to help a woman in need] But... you don't have to throw yourself at me or anything.
[ Another pause-- before Primrose starts to chuckle, pressing a hand to her lips. ]
Even I know better than to throw myself at a man who's clearly not interested in me. If I was only looking for indulgence, I could find more willing [ targets ] participants.

... I'm sorry you've had to go through that...
[if she's really dealt with much worse than him?]
But, ah... Thanks for reassuring me. That's - you don't have to. It's really nice of you.

By reaching out and cradling his face in her hands. ]
Not at all. I would consider it a proper, respectful greeting.
no subject
O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-Okay!
[oh my god]
I FEEL LIKE I'M BULLYING HIM JUST BY TOUCHING HIM
[ Primrose, you're going to kill him. ]
THAT'S BECAUSE YOU ARE

.... is this a dream....?
[oh my gOD]
no subject
Primrose, though, just looks amused. ]
... You also don't have much in the way of contact, do you?
no subject
I don't—
It's...! [hello?] It's an honor regardless...!
[no matter how much contact you might have with someone beautiful, wouldn't they just always knock you off your feet anyway?!]
no subject
[ Immersion therapy??? ]

W-W-We don't have to, I—

[fuck. FUCK! WHAT DOES HE SAY IN THIS SITUATION. he looks like he's panicking for a bit before shaking his head more adamantly]
.... d-don't get me wrong or anything, you're really.... beautiful—
I just - That's not... I don't wanna do stuff like that unless I really, really have to.
no subject
I see. [ She nods, sagely. ] I travel with a cleric. If you intend to save yourself for marriage, I won't attempt to beguile you.
no subject
HE'S WITHERING AWAY AGAIN]
That's - That's not—
My reasons are different...!
no subject
Though I do think you would benefit from feminine company, regardless. It doesn't have to be... ah, intimate in nature.
[ She's trying. ]
no subject
... can't it just be uh - company in general? Like - friends?
[he's trying not to think too hard about how... pretty everyone is here....]
no subject
[ Wow Prim it's like you're still new to the concept ]
no subject
... I mean, as much as it can work out....
It's probably hard to trust people around here and I know I'll have to work for it but - I don't wanna have my guard up all the time.
no subject
[ And she says it softly. ]
no subject
... think it'll be harder for yourself?
