[ It doesn't feel great at all to hear his friend say stuff like that. To see Gorgug so scared - despite his size. The other is curling up against the wall like he's trying to disappear, and Fabian can't only hope that staying next to Gorgug like this without anything happening will slowly desensitize the other to it all. That it will slowly make him believe that things are okay, even if they might not seem that way to Gorgug just yet.
So he moves to join the other in the bed, though in a much more calm way than Fabian usually would have - sometimes just having too much energy and too much dramatic flair at the same time. It's like Gorgug is a frightened animal he's trying really hard to not startle, holding a breath until he's actually lying down next to the other.
He rolls onto his side, Fabian's face turned towards Gorgug. Watching him. Watching those hands, the faint shake to him. He doesn't say anything for a moment, but then speaks up again. ]
.. can I touch you?
[ Sure, he did it a moment ago without asking.
But he's pretty sure that with how bad Gorgug looks right now, the other might just flip out by accident if Fabian does as much as accidentally brush him, let alone outright touch him. So before he does what he wants to do, he should at least ask. ]
