Eli sat back down on the bed once Shannon moved, waiting to see what he'd grab next. He wasn't all that surprised by the boots and merely grinned, knowing how much Shannon seemed to enjoy putting them on and lacing them up. It was why he used them in all their scenes and why he added the jacket alongside it, so Shannon could get lost in the buckling and putting everything together.

"I'll take that to mean you're glad that I do," he said as he leaned back a little on the bed, arms propping him up while he looked at his boyfriend. Of course he'd be okay with it and he'd encourage it if Shannon ever thought otherwise.
