Summary
Kenshi pinches the bridge of his nose, already feeling the workings of an oncoming headache. He seats himself onto the wooden floor of his apartment, barely avoiding the ridiculous stacks of magazines surrounding him. His knee jostles a copy off one stack, sending it sliding down the pile. Kenshi lifts it, and stares at the glossy cover.
It’s Johnny, of course.
He’s sprawled on his back, in the world’s tightest pair of black briefs; the fabric straining itself against the bulk of his thighs. There’s a pink shirt with only one button fastened, fluttering at his sides and revealing the gorgeous, gorgeous expanse of his stomach, and the sculpt of his abs. A loose tie hangs from his neck and his hair is pretty and tousled, the way it gets when Kenshi’s kissing him stupid and grasping at his hair, strands falling from his perfect coif. Johnny’s wearing sock garters, and he makes it far more attractive than it should be, the band tight around his calf as he shoots a half-lidded smirk to something off the camera—

Summary
“It’s different,” Kenshi muses. “It was hard, at first. The pain, and the darkness. Navigating was… difficult, and I couldn’t fight. I didn’t want to put you all in danger.”
A pause. Then, softly, Johnny asks, “Does it still hurt?”
Kenshi’s chest aches at how small Johnny sounds. It’s a wild contrast to how he normally is— a big, demanding presence, a nuisance, like a terrible gnat buzzing into your ear. Johnny sounds younger, unsure of himself. Painfully sincere in a way that Kenshi hadn’t thought him capable of.
He thinks of an answer. Briefly, he sees a pair of outstretched hands, calloused and scarred, yet warm and steady, spreading a balm over a blindfold. Careful hands reaching for the back of his head, an action far gentler than he deserves, fastening a knot. A hand encompassing his own trembling fingers, placing them onto a steady shoulder, coaxing him forward.
“No,” Kenshi answers. “Not anymore.”

Summary
Kenshi isn't exactly sure when it all changed. If he had to guess, it was somewhere between searching for an evil sorcerer and running for their lives. The specifics having been lost to him amidst the agony when his sight was brutally taken from him. All he knows is that at some point the taunts and jabs turned into careful touches and encouragement.
