Apologies! Thought I had queued this up ๐ฅฒ
Touch repulsed/touch starved vs only person you actually want to touch you. Portia probably susโd it out a long time ago and respects it, so combination of being asked for permission + she knows just the right way to do it (aka TIGHT squeeze) plus smells good and is comfortable. Thrill of making ur crush happy. Again, Edwinโs an act of service girlie, he doesnโt need the praise and works in the shadows because itโs overwhelming otherwise, gets a lot of pleasure from making Portia happy. Obvi her gratitude/love is also welcome ๐ plus sheโs a words of affirmation type (which he seeks out) so being complimented etc feels GOOD BRO
