[Ronan doesn't understand why it's an of course. Why should forgiveness ever be assumed? Ronan himself isn't very good at it. And even then, it's a long distance between forgiving someone and wanting to be near them again. Forgiving someone doesn't mean their touch is welcome. It doesn't mean love is possible anymore. Ronan thinks it would have been entirely reasonable if Noah never wanted to look at him again.
It doesn't matter now, though. Clearly. Ronan believes the love that he feels from Noah, and he returns it gratefully. Once the kiss breaks, Ronan nudges his nose affectionately against Noah's, and he breathes a light laugh at the request. He hadn't even considered growing out his hair again. Then again, he'd barely considered shaving it in the first place. It was all done in an impulsive fit of grief.]

Can't you just play with Murphy's hair?
[That would go over well.]
