Welt's hand twitches towards Dan Heng as he withdraws the touch, but he's quick to return it to his own lap. It's almost humiliating how much he misses it already, despite how minuscule it was. Though, as Dan Heng tells him not to burden himself, the guilt seems to dwindle far more than he feels it should.

Still, he looks up at the other man almost sheepishly.

"It was good for me, too, Dan Heng. I... I've always known there was an affection towards you, I just hadn't realized how vast it was. I suppose that's why it was so easy for me to blur the line of objectivity and selfish desire."

After a moment's hesitation, he extends his hand out towards Dan Heng's, properly setting it over the one nearest him.

"While I'm sorry for being unprofessional, I'm... grateful it had happened."
