Ben's about to say that Bitter Biker Betty out there isn't the kind of person that Klaus should mess with, but his last comment makes the thought fly out of his mind as quickly as it came.

Hurt flashes across his face before he speaks. "You think I didn't want to say goodbye?"

There'd been no time for goodbyes. Only Vanya and the world about to fall apart around her. He wouldn't give up being able to help her for anything, but if he had known he wouldn't come out of that room, he would've at least tried to say goodbye.

Klaus half expects Ben to make some snide remark, to lecture him on his treatment of Bitter Biker Betty, on the after life, on the newly inherited drinking habit, but no. Instead, Klaus catches the flash of hurt and his expression sobers, his fingers curling tight around the coffee mug, however burnt.

"Well, I didn't say that..." Ben's the only one capable of drawing out a timbre so vulnerable, and it shows in the slight widening his eyes, the nervous huff, the fidget of his fingers around his mug. Pale eyes drop to the coffee, staring it down as if it has answers.

"But you had to run off and save the day, be all heroic, jeez," he huffs, but there's no heat behind it, not like there might be. Now, it's his turn. He doesn't meet his eyes. "... Did it hurt?"

"No," Ben says, giving him a soft smile. "Vanya held me as I went." He wants Klaus to know he wasn't alone in those final seconds. Because despite what he says or how he acts, he knows he's felt guilty for holding him back all those years. It had never been Klaus's decision, but his own that had kept him there. "It felt like letting go. I didn't realize how hard I'd been fighting to stay until I didn't have to."

He reaches out and puts a hand on Klaus's arm. "It's okay, Klaus. I'm okay."
He pauses, willing Klaus to look back up at him and squeezing his arm. "And you're going to be okay too."

"She doesn't want you here, so she's sending you back."
