Chapter Text
Pavitr was convinced he could save them both. Inspector Singh and Gayatri. He couldn't. Hobie tried to help but the bus fell. Instead of Singh it was Gayatri. The bus smashed into pieces. Instead of a celebration, They mourned. Pav decided he was going to crash in Hobie's dimension for a bit, Needing a break.
He brought a decent amount of his things and set up camp in Hobie's living room, Sleeping on his couch. Him and Hobie spoke a lot, Especially about Pav's emotions. Pav felt closer to Hobie than anyone. They were "close friends" after all, According to himself. He liked to be around Hobie, It felt easy. Comfortable even.
One particular night Pav really couldn't keep it in and was crying pretty hard. Hobie fed him some home cooked food, And put Pav into Hobie's bed. He laid down with Pav, and comforted him. Hobie wrapped Pav in blankets, and his own arms. They laid under the covers for a bit, Pav crying into Hobie's nightwear. They stayed there for a while, Hobie letting him let out his emotions.
After a bit Pav had finished crying and they both sat for a while and spoke about anything to keep Pav's mind occupied. Once he did fall asleep, Hobie went and got ready for bed, And laid back down with Pav.
The next morning the two boys laid there for a bit, Wrapped up in the warmth of one another, Talking about every topic under the sun. Later on in the day they were exploring Nueva on Earth-928. Pav was helping Hobie with.. Something. He didn't quite know what they were doing other than stealing.
Hobie and Him would go through and rip certain tech out of the walls. Pav didn't know what is was, Or what is was for, But he didn't mind. He was very happy to just hang out with Hobie, regardless of what they did. Hanging out with Hobie lifted all the weight off his shoulders, Even when Hobie was instructing him to steal things.
They headed home with quite a bit of Spider-Society tech on them. Both the two sat on the living room floor and Pav was helping sort it all into piles he couldn't discern on his own. Once they had finished sorting it all, Hobie and Pav started to make something, Soon recognized as a dimensional shifter like they had from H.Q..
It took a few weeks, But Hobie had made four watches with Pav watching over his shoulder the whole time. He realized not long after that he had feelings for Hobie, Quite romantic feelings. He wanted to spend all the time in the world with this punk-rock-hottie.
