In the moment that Ginko lifted him up, JW enjoyed the display of strength. There was a lot of him, but Ginko was stout and strong and also really warm and once enough of his coils were on the sofa that he wouldn't slide off, he scooted around behind Ginko and then looped around in front of him, again and again until it looked as though someone had piled three purple tires over the man's head.

Satisfied, JW wrapped his arms around Ginko's neck and rested his chin on his head.

"There. Now don't talk about going outside any more."
