[Dirk leaves, and there's the space of a breath before Connor asks:]
Yes or no?
[It's quiet, because he's aware that they all have very different priorities and well. It's not like he got an actually homophobic vibe off of Dirk, so much as he got a "I prefer if gay happens not in front of me" vibe. Which, like, Dirk's out of the room but Connor's still not going to full-on make out with Dave in Dirk's apartment if that makes Dave uncomfortable. The hand under Dave's shirt slides higher, though, the touch cool even if the intent is clearly not.]
I can probably heal you like this.
[The "it'll just take, like, a really long time" is left unsaid. He's using a lot of manna to do this and it definitely feels like he's being drained faster than he can replenish here, but he doesn't want to pressure Dave into doing anything.]
