[John's cheeks promptly flare up at her suggestion.]
N-no, no! That's okay, you keep your shirt on! It's fine! [He laughs a little nervously, waving his arms in front of him. He's seen her with it off a few times before, (never on purpose, mind you, that's sort of a hazard that comes with living with another person) but the prospect is still just a bit too much for John. Sorry, Rose, but it appears as though he didn't outgrow this during his time back home. Dad's life lessons involving romance and ladies are apparently drilled incredibly deep into his brain.]
But I said I would so... [So he's just going to pull his light blue shirt off and toss it aside.] ...there.
[The tint does down in his cheeks, though they're still faintly pink as John fails to make eye contact with Rose.]
[And she was definitely right, John's body underwent quite a few changes while he was out, thanks to puberty and SBURB. His basic frame remains largely unchanged, he's still thick-set and stocky. But what was formerly chub, set most heavily in his belly-area, has changed to muscle. It's not really defined, John hardly has the look of a sculpted bodybuilder, especially as far as his abs are concerned, but it's definitely, noticeably different than before.]
[The most impressive changes though are set a little higher than his former gut. What was once a small set of boy-boobs has tightened up considerably. And lugging around giant hammers for three years really did a number on John's biceps.]
