Normally there would be some cause for concern given how utterly overjoyed she is that he can't talk to her right now, but as it is there isn't, and there doesn't seem to be any more of that odd flinching back or trying to avoid being held in any way, either. It's...not something he ever really thought he'd like, certainly, and instinctively speaking it's bizarre and probably not something he would have considered an idea of a good time before now, but it's clearly something that's going to be allowed for the time being and the heart in her hands just kind of...pulses a bit, vibrating a little here and there.
The warmth isn't fading any, though, which is probably a good sign; when she lets go it won't take long before it's back in his body and that panel is closed, and all of the usual processes are quick to come back to full function.
He doesn't say anything right away; he'll push himself up easily, so he doesn't seem too disoriented or anything, and if anything he seems pleased with all that? It's just kind of a lot to handle and there are feelings involved, so there's going to be a buffering period anyway.]
I don't think I can show you here - not without magic, anyway. If I get that back...I'll start a battle with you, the way we do it in the Underground. You can see it then.
