Well, I have you to thank a little for that, actually.
[He lowers Kiryu's arm, trailing one hand across his back as he moved to start working on the other.]
Your training advice has been helpful, for getting more aware of how my body works. How to make the best use of things like my build, where to notice things in me on other people.
[Which he's sure Kiryu will fight him on, at least somewhat, that what he did wasn't a service that needed repaying, but he's working a solid knot in his right shoulder that hopefully stalls that train of thought out a little.]
You deserve acknowledgement for the help you do, even if it's just something as simple as a nice massage.
[ Nope, Kiryu's good. Kiryu's quite happy right now, both to accept the acknowledgement and to have hands on him working out those knots. Especially that one. The sound he makes when Tim works through it is- well, it's a little obscene. And Kiryu needs to breathe a few times before he can speak again. ]
[Tim tries very hard not to let that sound commit itself to his memory, and fails utterly.
So he just gives a quiet laugh, instead, trying to ignore the heat in his face as he keeps working. Kiryu's muscles are nice, and easy to work with - as knotted and tense as they are, they're also defined enough that it's easy to find where the worst offenders are, and he thinks he's done a pretty good of those fantastic shoulders by the time he starts training his hands down Kiryu's spine to start working on his lower back next.]
[ He's trying not to be rude or take up too much of Tim's time. But shit, he feels so much better already. There's a soft huff of breath before he sighs out- ]

Good. Most people don't realize the strength they have. Physically and otherwise.
I'm glad I can help you.

You're better than you think.

Would you mind doing this occasionally?
no subject
[He shouldn't be so thrilled at the prospect of getting more shirtless Kiryu under his hands, because he is trying to be professional.]
Just give me a heads-up when you'd like the attention and I'll make sure I've got space blocked out.

I don't suppose you like karaoke?

[He lifts a leg so he can kneel on the table, putting more weight onto Kiryu's lower back, dragging the heels of his palms over his hips.]
Love it, actually. Haven't done it in a few years, though.

You should join me. In the casino. A couple of beers. Karaoke. It would be fun.
no subject
Sounds like a good time. I'd be delighted.
