[The way Fenris looks away feels like a withdrawal. Not that Wade expected anything else-- the elf always got a little cagey when talking about serious subjects like these, he's noticed. It comes as a complete surprise to him when Fenris not only doesn't change the subject, but asks him a very valid question.

Wade blinks, his brows furrowing in thought.]

God, I'd almost forgotten about that fucking thing. But... maybe that was it? Maybe something in my healing factor was, I dunno-- triggered by your thoughts or something?

[It suddenly occurs to him that he sounds very presumptuous about what Fenris was possibly thinking, and he frantically attempts to backpedal.]

Uh... a-assuming you were thinking something like that, I mean. Like I said, I was pretty woozy from the blood loss.
