[stahn wants to be clean too, but he also really doesn't want to let go of leon, either.
so even as he steps into the comfortable warmth of the bathtub, he's not actually letting go completely. his hand will trace leon's arm as he passes, lightly holding onto his hand even as he sits in the tub. stahn shifts his position slightly, sitting with his legs apart and knees pulls up; it exposes them, but it also gives leon room to sit in the tub in a position where stahn can stay as close to him as possible.
it wouldn't be the first time stahn's taken a bath with someone else; he and lilith used to when they were very little, and he'd do the same with thomas at a young age—but this is decidedly different. even if the actions of getting clean and helping to watch the other other are more or less the same as bathing tends to go... this is warmer, more adult, and more intimate. there's nothing inherently sexual about it since that tension has finally escaped them, but there isn't any denying the fact that there are certain sentiments that linger.]
Mm... we'll get cleaned up and then we can get in bed afterwards. [but they'll probably linger here for a bit, stahn doesn't really have any intention of making this a strictly functional bath. the more time he has to be close to leon? the better, absolutely.]
