I have noticed he has started doing something rather unusual yet also kinda cute. When I lightly tap him on the back to him to get him to move during his more stubborn moments, he crouches down and shuffles away making little whines.
I BELIEVE this is a submissive gesture, and he hasn't tried mounting my feet since I posted or shown any signs of aggression barring the occasional peck when my hands get too close to his food for his liking (such as when stopping the silly bird from choking himself,) in which he gets a light 'peck' on the back of his head in response and he shuffles away like I mentioned earlier whining. I still cave-in when he hops onto my lap for pettings and give him a good snuggle and fuss, where he even stretches his neck over my shoulder or arm and snuggles into my hair, but it appears it has no effect on the pecking order I set myself in thankfully.
