Whenever he touches the fur, there was the same slight ripple as before - but now that he stands in it and sinks deeper due to his full weight being on a lesser space, his feet will actually touch the mouse's skin. At this point, he's literally waist-deep in.
Walking towards the tail will definitely be easier because he won't have to go against the grain.
As his feet touch the mouse's skin, the soft rising of the body due to the intake of breath hitches for a moment, and when it continues again Benjiro feels the urge to align with it, slow down his own inhaling and exhaling to the rhythm of the mouse. At the same time, a heartbeat that is almost deafening resounds in his ears, together with a feeling of warmth, of belonging, of safety, like a mother might feel to a very young child. And he receives an echo that makes him, or used to make his preincarnation, feel safe.
