Germaryah offered a low grumble in his throat. It wasn't quite a growl, but it was an unhappy noise.
He didn't try to hold on at least, but put his head down, his eyes away from Hanna's. They were a queer color- not exactly gold or green, or brown or even hazel. It was a muddy Mish mash.
"Like you care." The words were rough- not from his accent. Like he was having a hard time bringing words together.
"I wouldn't be in here if I didn't care." He reasons with him, though his tone is soft. He does remove his hand though, sighing.
"I don't have healing magic, but you want something to ease the pain?" Or at least forget about it? He can do that.
He rests his hands in his lap, ready to pull his marker out but waits. He knows how this hurts, feels a little bad that he'd pushed Trevor to make the call, but he thinks its better to know now than to learn from someone else.
Hanna pulls his marker out, using his hand as a drawing surface for the rune he's crafting for Ger.
"Be careful with that one, 'waste of time'. John's got opinions on that. Trust me." He coughs into his elbow, leaning heavily back against the wall as he draws.
Hanna doesn't blame him at all. Maybe later when he's feeling a little better, they can have a real talk, one that involved feelings and what to do, where to go, how to maybe feel a little better?
But there was nothing wrong with being mad about what happened, so he doesn't try to fix it. Nothing too fix that isn't in Trevor's soon to be nonexistent court.
Hanna finishes the rune, offering his hand for one of those massive paws, "got your remedy in my hand, just gotta put your paw right here."
The magic sparks pink under his paw and a wave of fuzz rolls over Germaryah, the kind you can sink into, dulling the pain. He hopes that helps as its the best he can do while still keeping the kid mostly sober.
"He gave me a training light saber for Christmas. I still have it, though I'm shit with it. It's still a prized possession." Hanna sniffs, thinking about where Trevor was two years ago when he'd gifted it to him. Time and the Barge wasn't kind to him these past two years, just watching his friend get angrier.
He sucks in a slow breath and sighs, "You're welcome to it when ever you want."
Hanna glances his way but doesn't turn his head, "you know what my best friend said about me after knowing me for like three days? He just showed up at my doorstep and I hired him, got a best friend and a new roommate all in the span of like ten minutes."
Hanna isnt going to make him guess, but he will pause if Ger had any ideas.
Hanna shook his head, "naw, he wasn't anything of that, he was a man with no memory and nowhere else to go. But that isnt the point. He said my biggest strength, and my greatest weakness is empathy. I don't do pity, I got enough of that myself when I was your age and it sucks."
"Oh I don't know...I was on a liquid only diet, then Sokie's got me on plain rice and chicken? I could settle for burger king at this point, even if I couldn't handle it."
He closes his eyes and dreams.
"Bun to meat ratio should be less to more, butter it and toast thr bun... double cheese burger with like, pepper jack cheese, big ole tomato slice, lettuce, some funky tangy sauce?"
Hanna wouldn't mind being a comfort, still gently holding his paw.
"Not like that. Breaking in a whole new digestive system. My old one was running on magic, didn't have much left to it without. John's been helping me follow my post-op diet. But I mean, if you like to cook I wouldn't say no, just... probably wouldn't be so fun to cook for me right now.

There was that M word talk again, and it was filled with loathing.

Re: Post-Trevor call
Date: 2026-05-07 12:14 am (UTC)He still wouldn't look at Hanna as he told him,
"He was going to teach me. He knew I loved swords, and I got to hold his light saber."

Re: Post-Trevor call

Re: Post-Trevor call

"I know what I am. And you have a conscience. You didn't want a broken kid like me to die like that."

Re: Post-Trevor call

Re: Post-Trevor call
Date: 2026-05-08 03:01 pm (UTC)Maybe it was the wolf in him, wanting comfort.
"You sick, so you can't have greasy foods? Because if so...I mean, I can cook. Make something better then rice abd chicken."

Re: Post-Trevor call
Date: 2026-05-08 03:16 pm (UTC)"I used to cook a lot. I used to love baking but, most places wouldn't let me bake. Ain't manly." Dumb, but it was how it was in some places.
"But might be a challenge, making you a burger that won't make you shit yourself. Your...I guess you have a stomach of a baby?"
Which was somehow funny. And he felt like being a little mean in his feelings od hurt and betrayal.
