[ If Fabian expected Gorgug to say anything else other than a plain yes or no answer to the situation, then it wasn't that question. The first part by itself may not have been incredibly surprising, but then he's suddenly asking that, and--
And Fabian doesn't get it.
A part of him wants to turn around and look at Gorgug's face in the hopes that might explain to him where the question is coming from, but Fabian is kind of afraid of that. He doesn't know how he's looking right now, and so he isn't sure if he wants to show himself to Gorgug while he's looking like this.
So he stays the way he is right now - facing the Hangman, rather than Gorgug. Still not turning around, even as he swallows, breathes, and does his best to keep his voice relatively still as he speaks. (It still shakes a little bit.) ]
What do you mean?
[ It's about as much as he's able to trust himself to say without sounding emotional. ]
