hurtcomfort: (listening to things)

It's easy to read people's memories, to see who they are and what makes them. Cole doesn't understand some ice skating terms (Cole's actually never been ice skating before) but Victor understands them so Cole knows them. And, as he thinks, as he reaches into Victor's memories, he finds a good way to explain what he knows.

"The blade hits the ice, twirling in time." Cole speaks quietly, with not that much inflection in his words. "Lunge, lutz, I need to work harder, he needs to work harder. It's both. Spirits know and I know as well." He doesn't make eye contact with Victor, as Cole's hiding behind the brim of his hat, but he looks over at Victor, looking closer to the man than before. There's so many things he doesn't understand, but it's important to Victor so Cole wants to know precisely what they are.

Though, he can tell Victor's worried. That worry blazes bright, so bright that Cole wonders if other people can tell he's worried and scared and confused as well. "And don't worry. It gets easier here. It just takes time."
