Ohhh yes!
Ah but also consider him being super needy and clingy when you're alone with him. Not in a sexual way either. He just wants to hold and be held kiss and be kissed. He's really awful with words and expressing his emotions but he loves being talked to sweetly and reassured that everything is fine. Imagine just sitting down and suddenly there's a weight against your back and arms wrapped lazily around your waist. Soft breaths against your skin as he buries his face in your neck and just stays there.
*self combusts*
A sudden weight on your back made you look up from your work.
Across the room at the shimmer of a reflection as you saw Shinmon lay his forehead against your shoulder. Only a mass of the man's black hair identifiable when you smiled at him and reached up to brush your fingertips through his mop of hair, "....where's Konro?"
Arms snaking around your waist. The captain settled even more into you as he slumped his body weight into you. Lifting his face from the crook of your neck just to lean his cheek against you instead, "Talking to the empire dogs."
"You're the captain," You run a light touch over his forearm and squeeze his hands clasped against your abdomen, "Shouldn't you be doing that?"
He shook his head and squeezed you tighter, "Konro is better with words. I'm just not."
"That's not true," You wiggle around in his grasp so you're facing him, "I like your way with words."
Less than enthused by your approval. He gave a little bit of a shrug and eye roll before returning to lean into you. This time just resting his forehead against your shoulder, "I wanted to come in here."
Smiling you wrap your arms around his back and pull him against you, "See, I like those words of yours."
"Tch."
"And I like other things you say."
"Konro said he'd deal with the empire. I just agreed because he's better with that kind of stuff." Shinmon fidgeted against you and shifted closer. His arms coming back around to your waist.
You kiss the side of his head before pressing your cheek against the spot your kissed. Hugging him tightly to you as you rub his back and feel him relax into you, "You know I have paperwork to finish."
A disgruntled groan from the man. But he didn't make to move anytime soon.
"The longer this takes me. The longer the wait to go soak at that old bat's bath house is gonna be."
Another disgruntled groan. But this time he slowly brought himself up from leaning against you. Wearied looking as always. You can't help but smile and lean to kiss his cheek gingerly.
"Keep me company though ya?" You offer with a softness to your voice.
Shinmon nods and allows you to resituated yourself in front of the table with scattered bits of paper all over it. He takes one look at it knowing he has nothing he could help with. And opts to lay himself down. Disregard for a pillow as the captain simply just lays his head in your lap.
One free hand coming to rest on his cheek as you repetitively brushed back his hair behind his ear. Your last bit of paperwork would be done in just a bit. But now it was a race to see if you'd get done before he fell asleep. Not at all upset. Your trip to the bathhouse could always wait for a sleeping captain in your lap.
