    Summary

    When Arthur is asleep, John is haunted. Every bit of his surface area is too hot, too cold, too aching, too empty. John is convinced it goes beyond wanting. Every fiber of his limited existence craves touch and simultaneously rages with burning jealousy that it’s not easy to ask for.

    or, 5 times John navigates his relationship to touch without a body + 1 time with a body

    Summary

    "I want you to be more than a spectator. And selfishly, I think I’d like to… reassure you, or have you do the same for me, even when we can’t speak freely to one another. The easiest way to do that is touch.”

    He traced once again over the back of his left hand. John let out a quiet "oh" within Arthur’s mind.

    "I don’t know how, though, Arthur. Like I said earlier, your mind needs to be… malleable. Susceptible to suggestion. I can’t do it on my own."

    . . .

    Arthur struggles with being home. John has lost control of his hand. In the silent solitude of night, perhaps they can help one another.

    The problem wasn't that Robby touches Whitaker. The problem was that Dennis started touching him back.
