That little lift does something to Phillip, and if he'd had any thoughts about shifting his form back at some point they were gone now. Between the two of them it's very easy to keep him at height throughout the kiss, and after he's just inclined to keep kissing as high as he can, working a few more blossoming marks into skin as he works off the upper layers.

The question gets a laugh in turn, Phillip flipping his hair slightly over his shoulder as he grins. "A bit of both," he hums, pausing from the disrobing long enough to run his fingers over the length of Gustavsain's chest, "I was rather trying to keep a lower profile, you know." There were definitely stuffy types in Ishgard who would not have taken kindly to his actual fashion sense, that's for sure.
