It probably is very novel, isn't it? I hadn't really thought about that, but especially considering how Tommy's so obviously a cuddler...I can see how he could just enjoy the sensation of a larger person to cuddle.
It's always a real mindfuck for me when I get flirty with a girl who expects to always be the passive/submissive one, and forces me into the active/dominant role. I really have to shift my whole perception of myself and my patterns of behavior around. Honestly it's sort of unnerving, but I bet having it be part of a stage act for Tommy fixes a lot of that problem. He's a supporting musician for a frontman, so he's not moving that far to get to the submissive role, and it's for art instead of part of RL behavior, so he doesn't have to change his perception of himself. He can test-drive the new role with a lot of the danger stripped away, and see if he likes it. Which he obviously does! ;)
