[ Claude hopes that she's not looking at him as he gets up because there is a moment where he looks deeply embarrassed.
It doesn't stop him from walking up behind her however, looking briefly lost before resting his hands on her shoulders and pressing in with his thumbs in a circular motion. ]
[ She's not looking at him, but she can probably imagine the look on his face and is consequently delighted by it.
She's not at all tense when he places his hands on her shoulders, though if he touches her neck at all, her skin's still a little chilled from earlier. Not alarmingly so, at least. ]

Anything I can do to assist with that?

Anything you do to promote relaxing normally?

I normally take a nap. I could also return your favour for a back rub, though I can't guarantee I'm any good.

[ She says this rather calmly. Though maybe it's because she's tired or because it's Otome. Hard to say. ]
