[Idly, he's tempted to float something else, something clever about their forthcoming flight home like and you look good on me, but the urge to do so fades away when he takes into consideration how exhausted Rohan still looks, and how it's not really the time for humor of that particular variety.
What gets him, though, is how easy the order he's given seems. At what point, he wonders, did kiss me become such a natural part of their routines? When did it become commonplace? When did he start looking forward to it?
Regardless, it's easy to do, and Rohan is waiting.
So he nudges down, letting their noses bump and brush very slightly before tipping his chin for the kiss he's been asked for, soft and slow and his best attempt at being reassuring.
When he does pull back, he doesn't go far, and rests his chin on the top of Rohan's head for a second afterward.]
I've got you, Rohan. Relax for a little while. I've got you.
