Ripping Through Different dimensions has always made his stomach Lurch and left bile on hobie's tongue
But Miles face is worth it
Earth-1610
A portal opens in miles room Hobie comes out of it expecting miles but when he isn't there
he lets out a sigh relief and disappointment going into the bathroom pulling his mask off, Hobie winced when he saw himself
A bloodied and battered hobie was looking back at himself, a black eye, Bleeding nose and cuts all over
the door opens
Miles noticed hobie but didn't look up from his phone as he started to walk to the bathroom "Hey hobi-" Miles looked up from his phone
"Hobie" Miles say's it softly This time almost to soft.
Hobie eyes start to water
Miles helps Hobie get patched up. holding his hand through every wince and apologizing when hobie flinches away.
This isn't the first time this has happened, Hobie has a hard time talking about what is happening in his world But miles Pieces together what he can. Riots, main-
"There was a girl today" Hobie's voice cuts miles out of his thoughts He turns to hobie as he sits up, they were on the floor looking to the ceiling
"Not even 10 maybe 8 years old" Hobie voice is shaky Miles gets up
That's something else he learned about hobie Physical touch Grounds him a lot.
so he puts his hand on hobie shoulder squeezing lightly
"She got away from her mom, She had a butterfly pin in her hair and Dragonflies embroidered on her overalls" Hobie started to tear up "I wasn't fast enough, She was so light, it was so loud. I couldn't even do anything I was scared" Hobie leaned into miles "I haven't been scared like that-"
Miles pulls hobie close into him As he starts to sob
Guilt.
it's the worse part of the job, That was the truthful part Sometimes you can't save everyone and it's pretty fucking shitty.
All he can do is hold hobie close because this is his own battle to fight
"Her names was Hailey, Her mom found Us a second later She was screaming at me, I don't think i know what she said, She was ange- "
He was rambling now
"Hobie" Miles starts firmly
"Miles" Hobie says it more like a plea
"it's not your fault"
miles pulls him into a hug and he sobs.
he screams
You can't save everyone
and it fucking sucks
