[The tail is surprising, but it's met with a broadening of Oren's smile. He takes it as a sign of relaxation from Ryan, combined with the way he can feel his muscles ease below his fingers. He shifts, touching his knees to the ground outside the tub now so he can lean over the rim of it.
He continues to smooth over Ryan's shoulders even as he watches his other arm and the tail that moves over it.]
It wasn't so widely known, but yes, I dealt with something similar. The pain never went away, but I dealt with it. It's something you learn.
[He turns back to Ryan, placing his elbow on the rim so he can lean his head a bit against that arm and Ryan's tail. His other hand plays with the curls of hair at Ryan's neck.]
Why, that's not something I want to hear, that you're surprised to not be alone. I'll fix that myself if I have to.
