Azrael
do you like walking in the rain?
when you think of love, do you think of pain?
when you think of love, do you think of pain?
Azrael hears the muttering but they don’t think too much about it. After all, it could be worse. Henry’s been through a lot and Azrael wouldn’t ever hold it against him for the things they say when faced with it. He doesn’t take the basket, though, and Azrael’s left holding it out a bit awkwardly. “Yes.” They say, flashing a small smile. “Growth spurts, I think is what papa called them.”
But then Henry is allowing them in and they take the invitation easily, thinking nothing of the space offered as they nod and tuck the basket in close to them as they pass by Henry into the room he’s staying in before they offer the basket back to him. “Thank you.” They offer, deciding against mentioning that they don’t feel the cold.
Seems like a moot point.
The basket is handed off and Azrael folds their hands behind their back, watching as Henry looks down into the basket. “I wanted to. And… Even if the Barracks fell, it would have done it sooner if it weren’t for your help.” The smile that spreads across their face is genuine and soft. “I… Heard about what happened so I wanted to just… Let you know that people care about you.” This is said a touch awkwardly, their hands rubbing together behind their back.
“I’ve never… Needed to eat or anything so I had to ask around but a lot of people helped! There’s some canned beans, bread, clothes, blankets.” Their shoulders rise and fall in a shrug.
