[Which doesn't stop him from sounding a mixture of exasperated and irritated- if mostly out of habit. Though it did draw his attention back to his own response, his inclination to hold back, his disinclination to change this. That this lay in the odd gap between indifference and attachment; close enough to not want to pretend, distant enough to remain guarded. Not that he'd been terribly open in the past either, but it had at least been possible....
--Ugh, that was the problem of thinking too much, it was distracting when it was preferable to focus on the warm-ish miqo'te on top of him, the points of heat where their bodies met. He could appreciate her effort, at least, though he was more conscious of the disconnect between physicality and emotion. His breathing becomes rougher as the pressure she was exerting on him increased; Irhya was surprisingly strong.
Enough so that it took more effort than he expected to actually flip them over, rolling on top of her. Not because he was particularly impatient, but it felt like an easier position to move more quickly, more sharply, biting back a low groan and a small shudder.]
