Hey. Thanks I guess, an anon gave it to me. Don’t really have a use for it though.

Maybe you can whittle something? Whittling’s fun.

Yeah, I guess. I don’t have anything to whittle though.

Well, this is the forest. There’s plenty of wood to go around. *He looks at the teenager, considering for a moment* You must be Max’s older brother – you look so much like him. I’m sorry we haven’t met earlier – I”m Carlos. *he smiles politely and offers his hand to shake*

*Max looked a Carlos, confused* Dude, what the hell? I don’t look that different.

*Carlos blinked at him* Uh… I just said you look like him. I’m…
I’m sorry?

“Quick, take my hand, it’s urgent!” (whispers-of-change)

Carlos was taken off-guard, but he merely gave the other a contemplative frown before reaching out to comply. “Uh… alright,” he said.

@whispers-of-change

“Oh,
that’s so thoughtful of you!” she grinned. “You just barely met them,
and you’re already just jumping right in to do so much to help.” She
smiled at him across the table, and took a sip of her tea. “You must
have such a kind heart…”

Carlos shrugged a little awkwardly. “Well, it was the only
way they’d let me study them,” Carlos admitted. “But they are really good – I’d
love to help them out!” He glanced at Selina’s tea and realized that he should probably get up to go order something. But he worried that it’d be a bit rude to go make his order while they already had a conversation topic to go on.

“Oh- Oh my gosh! You probably want something to drink, don’t you?” she exclaimed, having noticed his eyes flickering over her cup. “Oh, it was so rude of me not to wait, I just… I was just nervous, needed something to help calm me down, so I… I ordered before you got here…” She bit her lip, frowning. “I’m sorry… Would you like to get something?”

Carlos smiled sheepishly at her. “Yeah, I would like to,” he
said. “I just didn’t wanna be rude. I promise, I’ll be just a second – it’s
okay.”

Carlos was confused now, and a little concerned. “Hancock?
Hancock, I’m just asking – did you want to do it? If you did, I… I don’t see
why not.” Other than the fact that they hadn’t actually seen each other naked
yet. But, heh – it was gonna happen sometime. “I just… hadn’t heard about that
before. I mean, sharing a bath with someone. We had showers in the Vault and
they’re only big enough for one person…” Was Hancock put off now by Carlos’ naivety? Carlos hadn’t meant to…

“I–– well, yeah, but–– it doesn’t matter.” He shook his head, hesitant to even make eye contact now, though he wasn’t entirely sure why, it was just a simple misunderstanding. “I just thought….. I dunno, it might be nice. If it’s too much, it doesn’t matter, we can go at whatever pace you’re comfortable with, I don’t wanna rush you.”

And just like that, the moment was quickly going. And Carlos
could see that the night was going to be awkward if he didn’t do something.

“Um… hey, Han? I think I’d like to give it a try.” Carlos
looked at Hancock and smiled at him. “I mean… you just said it would be nice so…
if you’d like to, I’d like to try it.” It did sound nice… sitting in warm water
cuddled up against Hancock. He wondered how they’d be able to maneuver to get
any washing done, but he supposed there would be a way.

Carlos looked up at Hancock, at first confused at what he
was talking about. But then he smiled and shook his head. “Nah, nothing like
that,” he said. He continued toward the little stove that Hancock had in the
Statehouse. “Hey, are you hungry?” he asked.

“Sure, I could eat. What’re ya makin’?” With a smile, Hancock set his book aside and got up to cross the room and loop his arms around Carlos’ middle, standing on his toes just so he could rest his chin on the other man’s shoulder to watch what he was doing. “Is this what ya ran out for? To get us somethin’ nice for dinner?”

Carlos turned his head to glance at Hancock and he looked
back down at the bundle he had, still smiling. “Well, sort of,” he said. “I’m
not cooking it because… y’know, I can’t cook. It’s already made. I just need to
warm it up because I thought this would be perfect for the current season, with
how cold it’s been… you know?” He felt a little like he was blabbering a bit.
He was a little nervous, even though he knew Hancock would like what he sent
out for for dinner.

“Um… you wanna go ahead and get me a pot? To start warming
this up?”

Puts
a arm over his shoulder pulling him close and sighs relaxing and
leaning back. “This is…. well nice. It’s good…. “ smiles closing his
eyes.

“That’s good,” Carlos said with a slight smile. His cup
still felt too hot to drink so he just held it, closing his eyes for a bit with
his head resting against Yondu’s shoulder.

Nuzzles against his head and lays his ontop Of Carlos’s. “To coolnit to drink level just put your finger onto of the handle…..”

“Hm?” Carlos asked. “Oh, no, it’s okay,” he said. “I like waiting for it to cool… it feels good in my hands, and the delayed gratification is nice sometimes.”

“Quick, take my hand, it’s urgent!” (whispers-of-change)

When Carlos was told that Daisy had a delivery for him he
knew exactly what it was. He also knew that it was a time-sensitive delivery so
he hurried out of the Statehouse to go meet her. After an exchange of caps, and
a thank-you hug from Carlos, he returned to the Statehouse with a carefully
concealed package in his hands.

As he came in he was smiling slightly to himself, a little
excited.

@selfmedicatingmayor

It hardly struck Hancock as odd when Carlos went running out, barely registering as the ghoul sat on his couch reading the same Grognak comic for the hundredth time, but the smile on his face when he returned got his attention. Looking up, Hancock found himself smiling as well, a curious look on his face as he saw the package. “What’s got you so happy, handsome? Some new piece of tech or somethin’ to play around with?

Carlos looked up at Hancock, at first confused at what he
was talking about. But then he smiled and shook his head. “Nah, nothing like
that,” he said. He continued toward the little stove that Hancock had in the
Statehouse. “Hey, are you hungry?” he asked.
