[Okay, so, good news: Cayde lets go of that tense, heavy mood Hank accidentally dragged them into pretty easily. He even seems excited. Bad news: What he's excited about is the one thing Hank can't paste a casual face over. He wants Hank to grab his hand and Hank's eyes widen a little, he starts to lift his hands, palms out, in a 'hold up' kind of gesture, then presses them against his hips instead.]

Uh-

[He can bring this back, yeah, but not if- not with all his insides pulled outside him like that, not with Cayde having a chance at feeling all the shit that'd dragged this little outing down in the first place, and not with Cayde's - with his, whatever it is he's feeling mixing up with Hank's in ways that probably aren't going to end up in the fun little experiment Cayde seems like he's expecting. The hands on Hank's hips rub over his thighs.]

If it hasn't happened by now it's probably pretty rare, some special conditions attached or something. You really want to waste our time trying to figure that out? I mean, we can do that any time. [And if Cayde believes that, well, that's a problem for future Hank.] How many times are we gonna get to be here?

[He gestures around them at the view that probably started Cayde feeling all the shit that started this in the first place, hoping to hell Cayde's easily distracted by pretty trees, or whatever.]
