He brought his hand lazily down from Dave’s hair to his back. “Maybe angels don’t have wings or halos. Maybe they all look just like Dave Katz. You don’t know.” Except, Dave probably did know. He’d died. He paused for a moment, continuing to draw lazy circles on Dave’s back where angel wings would be if he had them. He was quiet. “Do you know? Did you see any angels? Mirrors don’t count.” 

“Tomato, tomato,” a hand is waved dismissively and Klaus laughs as if they’re not in the middle of a war zone and Dave didn’t just nearly take a bullet for him. He didn’t, thank god, just a graze on the arm but still-still. It could have been a lot worse and that’s terrifying in a whole number of different ways. Because Dave could have died, actually, and if he had then he would have died saving Klaus and that’s-that’s…well. Klaus doesn’t know quite what to do with that, is the problem. It should be easy to brush off, to say that Dave is a good guy and they’re in a war and that’s just what people do-putting themselves at risk for the other men in their unit. He can’t brush it off though, because the look in Dave’s eyes is so genuine and there’s a warmth in Klaus’ chest whenever he looks at him that he doesn’t know what to do with. Fifty years from now people won’t even give Klaus the time of day, won’t even realise when he’s tortured for hours on end (he doesn’t blame them, he doesn’t), never mind looking out for him like this. He tries to laugh again but it comes out strained and false sounding even to his own ears. “I’m glad you’re not dead,” he says eventually, voice far more sincere than it has been in years, “It’d be a lot more dull ‘round here without you Davey Boy.”
