While Benedict is busy inspecting the tie, he takes the time to unbuckle and set aside his belt and the bag hanging from it. It will get in the way more than anything, even if they don't strip down much, so it's better to get it out of the way. He also slips off his gloves and sets them aside as well, then takes his hair tie back, slowly running his now bare fingers over Benedict's hands as he does so.

"I do," he answers, and considers how to say this that he might like to hear best. After some thought, he leans close, brushing back Benedict's hair so as to plant a kiss on his ear, then says, "You're actually the one in power here, after all."
