[She breathes out as he does, audible, but makes no complaint, and even less effort to pull away. Her expression stays placid, but her skin is hot, both where he can touch and over her face]
Halfway there.
[And if her voice sounds a little airy, surely that is coincidence]
[It takes him another beat to take his hands away, though, before he withdraws reluctantly with one final brush to her thigh - rolls up the second leg, and offers it for her to step into]
[She nods with another audible inhale, her muscle twitching the slightest bit at that lingering touch. But her movements are steady and deliberate when she steps into the other leg a beat later]
[He eases this one up as slowly as the last, fingers trailing up her calf and the back of her knee as he eases it upward]
[He brushes over the thigh more than he probably needs to on this side, too - eases the pants up over her hips, and takes his time on the buttons, biting at his lower lip]
[She holds very still as he does, the flush over her cheeks slowly deepening. The breath she lets out as the glove is finally set is long and has a wobble at the end. However, she does not make any pretense at pulling away or interrupting his work]
[This one feels only half as much, though that's not the only reason it's twice as steady. Nevertheless, once the glove is on and the ribbon tied around her wrist, she brings the prosthetic up to cup his face, the smooth metal of her thumb brushing over his cheekbone]
no subject
Uh... yeah. Looks... looks great so far.
no subject
[Genial, as she shakes out the pants to prepare to step in]
...You need help with anything?
no subject
[Pulling it on without much trouble]
...do you?
no subject
If you wanna play the knight's page, you're welcome to help me dress.
no subject
If... if m'lady pleases.
no subject
Yeah...yeah, I please. Let's see what you got.
no subject
[He flushes darker still - moves to retrieve her pants, and goes down one knee, rolling up a pant leg to offer it]
M'lady?

no subject
[There is probably more contact than strictly necessary when he gets it up to her thigh,]
no subject
Halfway there.

no subject
...That all?
no subject
no subject
[Makes a show of considering]
...I'm not fully dressed, am I?
no subject
[Reaches for the first boot...?]
Then, if m'lady pleases?
no subject
no subject
Is this to m'lady's satisfaction?
no subject
...Alright.
[And she stretches out both arms, hands hung limp]
no subject
[Then he retrieves one of the gloves, sliding it on carefully]
no subject
no subject
[Then he moves on to the other glove, just as attentive]
