[ Hearing that no one's tried to be gentle with it makes Mananan want to try, but he decides to save it for the next time he takes Shiro home with him. He wants to be careful with him no matter what, but he feels like he'll have a better chance at being gentle with power if he's home. And Shiro seems fine with moving on from the subject anyway, so Mananan doesn't try to stick to it, easily moving on to touching for the sake of it as he makes himself comfortable leaning into his human a little more than before.
Feeling the way Shiro seems to nuzzle his hair leaves Mananan smiling to himself, comfortable like this. He wonders if the Paladin knows that he gives that kind of feeling, a sort of comfort even though it's not something the angel is seeking.
He lets out a soft hum against his skin. ] No. We have running water in Heaven, but we don't have bodies of water. Pools might exist, but my family has never had one.
[ His fingers trail across Shiro's chest, pressing over his heart for a few moments, just feeling it beat before his hand slides lower and comes to rest near his navel. He lifts his head, looking down at Shiro now that he's leaning into him like this. ]
Can I take you on a vacation one day? It can be short if you want it to be. We can go wherever you want. [ It's an open offer, one without any motive behind it aside from wanting to give Shiro a little bit of a break from life. Mananan knows things are calm now, but he still thinks Shiro - and the rest of the Paladins, for that matter - could use a genuine vacation. ]
