Easiest way to guide was a snake, one that hissed softly as if pleased with the touch and following hand. A feel of it's flicking tongue likely felt against skin before it retreated amongst the rest once fingers went for Gabriel's face. Letting his own eyes closed as so many more followed Jack's movements. Keeping still otherwise so a feel could be gotten.
There was well maintained and manicured facial hair, and it was perhaps easy to feel that the gorgon did manage to take well enough care of himself.
"The snakes are black, but there are hints of red as well, my hair is brown. Dark enough they can sort of hide in it." Those snakes did lift up under Jack's fingers, a few exploring over his hand, a brush of their scales unlikely to be missed. Pleased little hisses, likely because it had been years since anyone had touched him and not meant some hurt to his person.
Gabriel hummed softly- "Let the snakes know, it will get to me better than any written word." Even if it may seem odd. "I've a lot of scars."
