And...I mean, sometimes I think that not existing would be kinda great sometimes, because it's just- it's hard and it's always been hard and it's always gonna be, and I'm really not sure it's ever gonna get better, but-- I don't want to die." He hates how broken his voice is, but it's a constant for the moment, he can't stop the odd catches in his words.
He doesn't mind the touches to his shoulder and her fingers in his hair-- Klaus has always been the kind of person to get comfort out of touch above just about anything else, so he leans into that easy, soothing stroke tangling in his curls.
"...really?" He bites his lip and looks up at her, not sure if he should press any further than that.
