Raju makes an agreeing noise and turns his attention back to his hands. Some things Raju can't change only by willing it, no matter how sure he is that Francis should have had the life he'd wanted. It's an odd thought. But after everything Francis has lived through, even Raju can't argue that Francis might find his way back to that life now. He runs his thumb slowly over Francis' jaw instead of any other gesture that'd draw more attention to itself. Then he moves the scissors up to Francis' cheek, cuts there for a moment, and then he's done. With this one part, anyway. Mostly.

He considers the picture Francis makes, finds himself smiling, then moves the scissors to Francis' upper lip. "I'm looking forward to kissing you without this in the way," he says with a grin as he cuts the hair there shorter, then cleans off his scissors and puts them away, drawing out what he'll need for the rest and setting all of it aside. "And seeing what that lower lip really looks like."
