No thank you to touching for Mr. Super Swordsman, even for guys. Most often, he'll gibe a nod or a word of congratulations and acknowledgement after sparring, and nothing else. This doesn't stop you from experimenting like how you did with Frederick, but they yield similar results--nothing. For now, then, you'll just stick with your contactless conversations.

When you started as a couple, you had pretty much resigned yourself to a hands-off style romance. Surprisingly, though, Lon'qu will take hold of your hand or arm whenever he gets the chance. He's starved for a loving human touch, like a dying man. It's been so long since he's had one. Of course, this means he's awkward, and sometimes just doesn't seem to know how to work his way around your fingers or shoulders, but you're glad to teach by example.
