[ You're the millennial Hank, what would you say?

He smiles back and follows after him, heading down the stairs. Huh. His bag sure is light as a feather and going up and down stairs doesn't even wind him. Neat.

He nods. ]


Yeah, I think that'd be best. Don't wanna end up on the news tonight for all the wrong reasons.

[ Look at them go, so efficient!! He puts his bag in the trunk (gently) and climb's back into the car. ]

Yeah, I know I'll figure out how to filter all this shit out but. It's a lot. [ He closes his eyes and rubs behind his ears. ] Maybe it'll calm down after the first moon and shit.

[ Gavin nods then takes a deep breath. One day at a time, Ezra. It'll be fine. ]

Right. Good. Let's just hope I don't say any weird shit.

[ A pause. ]

Okay, you know what sounds really good? Beef jerky. I wanna fuckin' chew on something real bad.

[ He's already made the joke in his head, don't worry. He turns to look at him, raising a brow. ]

Weird jerky flavor shit? Or just weird shit in general that could make me go all Teen Wolf in the supermarket?

[ He shudders at the thought. ] Oh god, please. I don't wanna think about what I'd do. [ He'd climb right in it is what he'd do.

Gavin gets out of the car and shoves his hands in his pockets. Okay, dude... chill. It's a grocery store. One that's very similar to the obnoxious ones his parents took them too but still.

It's not a big deal. Grocery stores have always been loud and distracting and the bane of any and all entertainment anyway. It's fine. He's fine. It's fine!

He's already sweating. Have a big doe eyed look, Hank. ]

[ He jumps a little at the sudden hand on his shoulder but it's... nice? It feels comforting, warm. Grounding. Maybe it's just part of the Thing, but it helps.

Gavin wipes at his brow and nods, taking another deep breath. It isn't that he's scared of being overwhelmed... he doesn't want to hurt anybody. Or scare anyone. Shit.

No, nothing's gonna happen. Hank's here. It's fine. He leans into his hand and shoves his hands back into his jacket. ]


Yeah, yeah. Short trip. Let's go.

[personal profile] coffeedipshit 2018-11-02 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
[ He's not... used to this. Being given options. A safety net. Fuck, it's so weird. He's all fuzzy feeling inside.

He nods. ]


Yeah, I know. But I don't wanna keep being scared and make it worse than it is. I'll be fine once I'm in there, I know it.

[ With that, he straightens up and stars to walk towards the entrance. ]

[ 'Here kid, play with this toy car for a while.' Which is... reductive and he's pissy that something actually seems hard, which he's never particularly handled well on his best days but.

In, out. It's fine. It's loud, but he's been in literal shoot outs before. Those were loud. And he was fine.

So Gavin nods again, not wanting to risk speaking, and starts to push the cart. At least the deli isn't far, thank fuck. (A dude on the phone nearby has an incredibly irritating voice, holy shit.) ]

[ He looks distracted, but he's holding up. His eyes are a little glazed over, the smells of the meat an interesting sort of experience. He's not hungry but he's hungry. It's very odd; can you be existentially hungry? He guesses so.

He leans into him a little at the squeeze. Oh, wow, he really wants to just press his nose against Hank's neck right now. Not gonna do that!! It's also really hard to not start doing that damn purring thing!!

Think about something else. Like that that time Eli tricked him into eating glue to test his reaction. Oh, ew, that was gross. Oh hey it worked.

Oh Hank's talking about jerky now, which knocks him out of his little internal conversation. His hands feel very sweaty. ]

[ He let's out a shaky breath and nods. Gavin closes his eyes for a second and inhales slowly, swallowing with a bob of his throat. He rolls his shoulders. ]

Yeah, I'm fine. It's fine. [ His voice is a little rickety, but he can at least speak now. It's loud and overwhelming but it's kind of starting to turn into white noise in the back of his mind.

Nothing's making him angry at least, so that's a good sign. Hank's hand is definitely helping that. So he looks at the jerky. ]


The teriyaki flavor sounds good.

[ Gavin shrugs and shakes his head. ] No, this works. I'm good.

[ He's not really feeling his usual food cravings anyway. Maybe that appetite will come back after the full moon but it's very... basic right now.

He wheezes. ]
I think I'm gonna need a nap though.

[personal profile] coffeedipshit 2018-11-02 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
[ Gavin nods. ] Yeah. Super easy.

[ He's still just kind of in a forced autopilot daze as they head back to checkout. Everything just... numb. And that's fine. Yep, Hank pays. Oh, he should give him money later...

Soon enough he's siting back in the passenger's seat with a bag of jerky in his lap. He rips it open and starts to nibble on it. ]
