[ Well, that's at least one hurdle over with, since he Jack had been halfway worried that this would be... too weird. Which, no, it pretty much is, he's decided. But so long as Rhys doesn't make it weirder, it's not terrible. Probably.
Or, definitely, because even if Jack absolutely prefers to project a certain image, he's much more sentimental and clingy than would be expected. He absolutely prefers sleeping with someone next to him, since it's really a feeling of security that he enjoys. Jack would also never admit to it, because admitting something like that was something he felt was a weakness, and yet. He's halfway annoyed with himself, because when Rhys actually shifts the both of them to be more comfortable, he can't help but relax to some extent. ]
Not bad? Listen- [ Jack still can't actually just accept this without comment, though. When does he ever. ] I am great at-- Uh.
[ That cuts off rather abruptly, since there really isn't a word for this that isn't going to make it overly intimate. It's not cuddling or snuggling, and just like that, Jack realizes he's the one making it weird, so he just ends up sighing out a noise of frustration. ]
Nnnnnevermind, not finishing that sentence. So, yeah, same, not talking about it.
[ But he's still going to get pretty damn comfortable, since Rhys actually mentioned it. The cuff makes it so that he practically has to embrace Rhys here anyways, so he just accepts that, even if it's with some mild reluctance. It's loose, but still a pretty warm half-embrace. Jack definitely gives off the impression without quite saying so that he's a cuddly (re: clingy) person, but he at least settles back down without too much shifting. ]
