There was so little fat on John's body, he was so toned because of what he was. He could feel John tense under him, and then relax after the first touch.
"Nnnng." Sherlock made a soft noise when John nuzzled at his neck. He wondered if that was how the fishpeople greeted each other? But he was too engrossed in the moment to ask.
Sherlock stayed on John's belly for a bit, trying to become less anxious and awkward. Eventually his fingers moved down to where his hip would be, where skin turned to scale. He gasped, it was nothing he had ever felt before, the transition from skin to scale was flawless, easy, perfect.
And then, the scales, beautiful and shimmering dark blue like the deepest parts of the ocean. They were like fish scales but scaled up to human size, so it was quite rough against the scales, but almost smooth with them, they fit together so perfectly.
