It makes Marcus shiver with something inexplicable every time Dan answers some unasked question. A part of him understands how and why others might feel like it was intrusive, but he doesn't get that sense at all. Instead he's only struck with an overwhelming feeling of being understood. Of being heard.

"Good," he murmurs softly, then presses his finger deeper inside of Dan. It takes time, making sure nothing is going to hurt him, but Marcus is happy to spend all night fucking Dan with just his fingers if it comes to that. He doesn't think it will, not as he adds a second slick finger, pumping slowly as he opens Dan up, but if he did, he'd never complain.

He smooths his free hand up Dan's thigh, then curls his fingers around his cock without stroking. For the moment he just holds onto Dan, thrusting both his fingers carefully into his body.
