Keltham finishes letting Carissa out of her chains, and falls back into bed beside her.
He feels like he's starting to get the hang of this whole 'just doing what I want in the cuddleroom' concept; it's strange and alien and he can still feel unworn sharp edges of his own ?????? reactions jolting him each time he moves, but he is generalizing quickly and mental motions are transitioning from unfamiliar to familiar.
'Just do what I actually want in the cuddleroom' is not actually that complicated of an idea, though. And if Carissa can't easily have standard pleasure goals completed for her, then he may as well do what he wants and let her enjoy that without other pressures. Maybe that's why the eroLARP gave her that exact sex problem in the first place look he just had a really pleasant trope-free interaction, and it is possible there are not in fact any tropes, okay?
His brain occasionally pokes him and says that he should do something nice for Carissa now, give her something that she wants. Keltham has to remind his brain that Carissa is probably not feeling him to be net in debt to her right now; even if, perhaps, the various things he's finished doing for her are things that would not have made sense to Keltham as gifts to himself. Also he doesn't have 600gp in hand and also also he doesn't really know how to buy things yet...
Eh, he'll just say it.
"I feel warm and fuzzy things towards you and want to do something nice for you," Keltham murmurs, "even though I don't have anything specific in mind. Yes I realize that I've done some fairly nice things for you today already, my brain keeps feeling it anyways."
