[Physical affection for Rei is a learned skill, and a conscious act. He's watched Rin, he's come to know how to read signals, when to try words and when actions are clearer. Especially in quiet moments like this, when he can think about what he wants to say, and how to say it best, he can do it well enough.
He knows there will be times he won't have time to think, and he'll miss the cues, and he won't always give Rin exactly what he needs, but that's just something they'll have to keep working through.
He raises an eyebrow at the "attack," though it's just as teasing. Resting his palms on the couch on either side of Rin, he pushes himself up onto his arms over him, shifting his weight to his knees on the couch so he's not putting all his weight into Rin's stomach.]
So you don't like being cornered?
[It's said completely innocently, even as he crouches over Rin. Someone's been taking lessons from Nagisa.]
There go my plans for next Tuesday.
[He's glad he's already taken off his glasses, because if they had fallen off his nose during this it would have ruined the effect.]
