that's really cute and i honestly have queer friends with similar stories. i-i had similar stories, haha, but i was in the place of zzx with my jian yi friend in tenth grade oh no lol. it seems very compelling tho, that's all very adorable and endearing. Shishi is not the best person for Jian Yi to have sex with, for Jian Yi's own mental health, I'll tell you that now. He's not a compassionate person by nature, he's not used to having friendships or intimate relationships with humans, and humans are a lot more emotional and sensitive and caring than his kind, so that stuff confuses and irritates him, he wouldn't be comforting to Jian Yi at all. He'd probably just leave cuz shit got awkward lol. So let's keep their dynamic friendly and fun but flirty if it goes that way! Shishi's definitely the kind of person who would like touchy friends like that. I have friends irl who are touchy like Jian Yi lol makeup artists, we know no boundaries and I think that'd be so fun and cute to play out in game! one of my friends has the exact disposition of a cat — the type that stares you down while knocking shit off tables, can be touched only when she wants to, will walk up to hug you spontaneously and then immediately walk away silently (or go "ew" lol), that type of cat — and she often would come to me and demand flatly out of nowhere "play with my hair" and then go "ok" and leave when she was done with that lol. and with shishi once he gets close to certain people, i think it will be... very that, ha.
