"I don't think you talk too much." Of course, that's just comparing Ned to himself, so of course he doesn't think Ned's too talkative. Just right, he'd say. It's rare for him to find someone who has such strange similarities to himself and yet still find himself attracted to them -- he's never thought he appreciated any of his own traits, but somehow the ones he finds irritating in himself are incredibly charming in Ned. "Maybe other people just don't talk enough."

He shivers a little when Ned scrapes his teeth against his collarbone, and then shivers again, a little more obviously, when Ned trails his hand lower and asks that question. If there's surprise on his face, it's certainly not because Ned's making an unwanted suggestion, it's simply that he's not used to anyone being this close to him, actually finding him attractive. "I don't mind. I'd have to be crazy to mind."

Never let it be said that he's not encouraging; he's not capable of not talking, but he's also not capable of reining in any little surprised yet pleased noises when Ned runs his hands over his skin, nor is he particularly interested in doing so. Quiet just isn't how he does things.
