It is only on third reading that the significance of the opening paragraph hit me:
Shou’s purpose (or at least part of his purpose) in manhandling Enjun was to get him to sleep!
Hahaha, I like that, it’s funny and sweet all at the same time!
And, yes, sexy, but that one’s obvious, no? ^_^
Ok, seriously, I like that Shou did it more for his friend’s gratification than for his own. The carrying, changing of clothes, and tucking into bed also reveal Shou’s love.
I also like the way you kept Shou in character, by retaining his manipulative nature. Enjun’s exasperated ”Eiki expects me to join her … I’m stuck in Kiyou with you!” hints at the rivalry, which you subsequently revealed, between Shou and Eiki for Enjun’s time and affection. Good job!
Ah-haha, this round Shou wins! Love his ”Lady Eiki will understand” - yuuup, she will understand that she lost, and fume ( ... )

Reading three times (or more) is quite normal for me, when I've decided that I like something enough to make a comment.
Yes, I did recognize that sentence (that conversation in Episode 7 left a deep impression). I just didn't know exactly what your Shou envied about Enjun's human-ness.
Yes, different interpretations is fun! ::nods::
You actually re-watched the relevant episodes!
I bow to your dedication!
Thank you again!

Shou envied Enjun's human passion, I think, from watching the episodes. Like ambition, how much he cares about the Sa clan, or even the way he'd love/hate Shou.
LOL, I HAD to rewatch the episodes because I kinda forgot which bit came from where *blush*
