I would show you even more gentleness, if you allowed it, if I didn't worry you would shy away and feel as though I was doing too much for you. I've often wanted to ask you to sit back and relax and allow me to massage around your knee after we've sparred, or after I've had you on your knees for a while. I'd enjoy spending that time on your hair as well.

[Well, at least he could be sure that Zechs knew he meant it and wasn't just saying it to be kind or make him feel better.]
