In fact, I think you might be the only person I really trust in a personal sense.
[ he trusts markus with his life, with his future— but he doesn't really know him. he certainly wouldn't ask him for... you know... intimate instructions. or even to try it for fun. besides, he's pretty sure he's involved with someone else, and although androids don't necessarily have to play by human rules, that doesn't mean they won't.
and it's kind of besides the point. he wouldn't ask him even if he could, because right now, there's only one person he wants to ask. he laces his own fingers together again, squeezing them around his hands. ]
Only, I'm not sure if you're interested in men. Or androids, for that matter.
[Hank opens his mouth like he's going to say something and closes it again when he realizes he's not even sure what the hell someone can say in a situation like this?
The right thing to do would be to shut it down and never speak of this again. It would do wonders for their working relationship to pretend this conversation has never taken place. On the other hand there is a part of him that is curious, and willing, even, to help Connor figure things out about himself. Who knew what other kind of android-fucking sickos were out there? They might treat him like an object and the thought of that gets his blood boiling. Is that normal?]
I don't...I don't know. I've never given that stuff much thought. Look at me going on about making your own experiences, but I don't have any milage under my belt there. Besides some drunk incidents in the academy, I don't know too much, but I guess I'm not disinterested in men. [He just, kind of, isn't interested in anyone. Not after the death of his son and his wife leaving, anyway.]
What I'm saying is, I'd be a hypocrite to not try and see how it goes.. [Which is as close to a yes as he can manage. Hank eventually turns to Connor, taking one of his partner's hands away from the other to look at. They feel and look like real fingers. And if he didn't know any better Connor could pass as human on sight and touch alone. Fuck. Guess this is it then.]
