And after that unscheduled moment of empathy, John promptly lies back down. Head in Ryan's lap. He shifts a bit to get comfortable just as promised, shoulders inching down until Ryan's bony legs make something of a pillow, then closes his eyes again. Fully this time, just feeling what this is like. This kind of contact.
