The balm would be nice, right? In case — [ he clears his throat, which has the added effect of deepening it like he's divulging a secret, even if they're the only ones who can hear each other. ] In case I'd want to, you know. Share it.
[Oh, good. That's so sweet, he doesn't even want to tease him as much anymore, rather than just help him.]
You most certainly could do that. It would be like a lotion and it would cause a bit of a tingling sensation which would be nice. Perfectly safe anywhere you'd like and would heal light issues with skin or muscle. I'll make you a large pot of it. Any scent requests?

Is there any way to make it smell like, you know, a forest? Nothing too strong, just... like that scent you can breathe in when you're surrounded by trees as tall as ten men stacked up on top of each other. Like everything around you is just green.
Yes, I believe I can. That scent of fresh and cool, a slight bit of dirt but mostly leaf and you're not sure how green has a smell, but it must be that.

Something fresh. Almost like it's rained the night before so everything just has that smell of... wet over it.
I know exactly what you mean. I'll work on them both and have them ready for...the other gift-giving holiday. The one most people from Earth celebrate? I don't know if you do, but it'll likely be ready by then.
[He knows all too well, the memory was ingrained in him, that first time he'd wandered into a forest after a childhood on the plains of Ferelden and then the rest of his life locked up in a tower, it had been so...much. He loved that smell almost as much as the ocean breeze. He'd make sure it was perfect for Finn.]
If you think of anything else, please let me know of it and thank you for your help.

Although the clarification makes him grin and he's sure it's audible in his voice.]
Soreness I can definitely handle. Would you prefer...a potion you can sip to ease the aches or a balm for more intimate uses?
[Is he teasing? Absolutely. Finn sounded like he'd be cute flustered.]
