OOM: workshopping with Charles.

Jay's workshop is an interesting mess of bike parts and tools. He has a couple of old couches and a cooler full of beer too. "I know it's weird but being down here is almost as private as anywhere in Milliways."

"I think I can handle it and help you," No one's mind is that neat in his experience.

[runningred]

"Get inside and dust out the dark corners." Jay half jokes, "I'll make sure the bits that bite are well penned in." The shining corner of darkness that is his desire to kill the Joker, to see the light drain out of these laughing eyes.

"I've seen worse. So you don't need to apologize,"

He smiles and lifts his beer to Jay.

[runningred]

"I'm sorry." Not for his own darkness but that Charles has seen worse. He knows he's mostly sane and can't imagine what it would be like looking into the mind of someone who wasn't but he can hate that Charles has had to.

He raises his beer too, polishing it off. He's tempted to crack another but that was his third. Any more and he will start to get drunk.

(OOC: Maybe at an end for this session but they'll have more.)

"Don't be, its who I am. That's why I have my shields to protect me from the worst but we're all human,"

Once more he shifts forward, this time to hug Jay who looks in need of it.

[runningred]

Jay leans into the hug, his arms loose but warm around Charles' waist. Thank you. It's heartfelt and honest. Charles' care means a lot to him.

{{ooc: works for me. Thank you! This has been lovely!}}

(OOC: It has. I'll post this one. Love these two.)

He's glad that he can make Jay feel good for a time and this is just a first step.
