[Jacob had just assumed that Hellboy came from a place where everyone looked like he did- tall and red and tailed- he hadn't considered any other possibility. Nor had he considered at any point how old Hellboy might be- he hadn't even stopped to think about it, but somehow hearing that he was in a relationship three decades ago seems strange.
It's enough to make him realise how very little about Hellboy he knows, but he likes him, there's nothing about him that makes Jacob feel on edge, nothing about him that inspires fear. And because of that, Jacob moves silently off the bed to be closer to him.]
She sounds like a good woman. Like she would have stuck by you.
