Not too long ago I as lounging quietly, enjoying some earned attention when my partner stopped what he was doing to look up and say very quickly and with a firm voice, "Alright, that's enough of the quiet here, gimme some feedback." and went right back to the pink. I laughed and gave him what he wanted. We both appreciated it. He meant it, but quasi-humorous about it.
It worked.
