PHYSICAL TOUCH.

So I would say Clark is touch sensitive but he doesn't necessarily have a complete aversion to it, he's just very picky with it depending on the person and what the touch is.

So in terms of strangers or even just casual friends, etc-—he does NOT like random physical touch. Hugs, shoulder pats, nudges, etc. Hell he doesn't even like people standing too close to him. Depending on how along someone is from going from a casual friend to more, he might allow it if given some sort of heads up. He loathes his hair and face being touched and does not like to be approached from behind or touched from behind in any way.

You will see situations where he tolerates it just as he would insults or other negative situations because he finds some sort of risk/reward scenario to justify stomaching it. This does weigh on him and you likely won't see him capable of dealing with it for long before signs of agitation and discomfort start to be blatantly noticeable.

In terms of besties and romantic partners, he still isn't one for random physical touch he doesn't see coming but he's way more tolerant of it. If someone in this category were just bear hug him, he'd probably be as stiff as a board but he'd mostly be chill with it. If you tap his shoulder from behind, you're still likely going to get a jump out of him but he'd not going to give you dagger eyes for the rest of the conversation. Romantic partners get pretty much free access to his hair and he heavily tolerates little face touches as well (cupping, lip brushes, playful nose flicks, etc). Heavily enjoys hand contact and will seek it out (typically will play with a partner's fingers while they have a conversation, etc)

No matter how deep the connection, his back and his head are always going to have him sorta jumpy and stiff initially. He's gotten better about his holy water burn scars on his back shoulder, but his gunshot wound scars (entry not too far up into his hairline, the exit closer to the back base, larger and a bit textured) are still a very touchy topic and even with warning or a conversation, he's going to tense up and freeze, there's no avoiding it. He's usually fine after that it's just that initial letting someone past that boundary.

Movement restriction will probably get you bit honestly. He cannot have his limbs immobile completely or he will freak out, besties. Hands or legs separately are tolerable if you're like on the fucking twue wuv UwU, soulmate shit but both is a no go. Likewise, he's all for pinning on the bed and he's usually cool about it but if he's like Yo, get off me please then that's pretty much your warning before he mAKES you get off lol.
