[Joshua can certainly appreciate the positive reception for that. Sounded like they had plans for the day. However, while Joshua really knew, seeing Estelle be such a cuddle bug is definitely nice. She'd always been physically affectionate (and violent) and someone who displayed her feelings more by touching and embracing than by saying things.
So it really speaks volumes to him when she leans back against him. Sometimes he fears that he gets too handsy, but when she comes back and decides she wants to be close again, well, it's nice. He knows his fear is unfounded, but it's there. Then again, he knows what causes his fear and it's just something he's going to have to one day push past when they're ready.
For now, he wraps his arm around her shoulder and starts to run her upper arm. Let he be cozy for now since that's what she's practically asking of him.]
