[Sadly, nope. Had to pay full price for the phone. Nice phone though - pretty happy with it so far. Only real downside was I lost the photos and videos from the last six months or so which includes my recording of Adam Lambert singing when I saw him in concert. :( I thought it was backing up to the cloud... turns out it wasn't.]
There was intimacy, but not of the lovers sort. He had seen Charles naked, helped the hand through showers and baths, through horrible reactions to the initial stages of the drug and nightmares. All in all, Charles was his best friend, and he believed the same of the other in return. They had gone through more than most together.
"I did," he confirmed quietly, a brief sadness crossing his face. At the first question, Hank looked up, but before he could say sure, the question that followed made both of his brows shoot up. To be fair, the very first thought in his brain - given that question about Charles moments before - was that Aurus was... interested in Charles. After all, why ask that question when there had only been two real points of connection since Aurus arrived, himself and Charles. (It did pass quickly through his mind that he could be the face of that, but he pushed it aside a heartbeat later.)
No, Charles wouldn't let that happen, at least he was fairly sure, so maybe it came up for another reason? "Well, yes, there are, as I imagine there were in your home," Hank started with a certain hesitation. So, instead of floundering into the unknown, he actually turned it back on Aurus. "Why do you ask?"
His gaze was frank, studying, trying to understand why Aurus was asking this at all.
