Deep emotional processing would wait. Possibly forever, if he could book
enough time in the training stim rooms to block it out. For now, he's
content to be content, a rare experience in his life. One that had only
really happened in the past few months. First with Rey, with the knowledge
of doing the right in thing in helping her, and lately with Poe. Because it
was Poe. No more needed to be said.
On a more superficial, physical level, though, he can't help but note they
could make some improvements. The wet sheets were leaching body heat rather
than their intended purpose of helping. The warm bundle of pilot on top of
him was somewhat compensating, but not quite enough. He opened his mouth
for one more, lingering kiss, then the hand on Poe's shoulder slid down so
he could tighten an arm around the man's waist, forcing him to sit up (or
end up awkwardly sprawled in Finn's lap, the soldier wasn't picky) along
with Finn as he shifted to place his feet on the floor over the side of the
bed.
As if needed to punctuate the lack of grace he'd shown this whole
afternoon, the sheet stuck to his back as he sat up like a terrible mockery
of Phasma's cape. But that didn't matter either. Finn was too busy pressing
a consolidating kiss to Poe's neck.
