The Archer looked off towards the blank TV screen again, monster right. Two dragons..one sought the power the other had, and in getting it watched the world fall to pieces. "A second chance," he agreed. "I do not think you are a monster, I have seen those before. Those that have evil and death etched into their souls." He frowned a bit as he looked back at Reaper. "A monster does not regret."

He felt Gabriel's hand move away and in a rather quick little move, entwined his fingers in the others. "Forgiveness, no, neither of us deserve that." he murmured. "Peace with our actions, perhaps there is merit there." He sighed. "But such is hard to come by."

"Maybe not," Gabriel grumbled, raising an eyebrow as Hanzo took his hand but he didn't pull away but to tighten his hold. "You might change your mind once you actually know what I've done." He then shook his head as he moves slightly closer to Hanzo, deciding to take a chance. Hanzo is actually quite attractive and he's the only know who knows how he feels. It's.. odd to have someone that understands. He's so used to being the only one that knows but now, it's pretty overwhelming.

"Perhaps. I do plan on leaving Talon to try and make peace through my actions but I know that it won't be easy," he mumbled quietly before shrugging. "Nothing we could do."

"Every year I have come back to this place; I kill or maim many men just to kneel at an alter and light a single stick of incense for the brother that died by my own hand," Hanzo said quietly. "How many people have I killed? How many lives have I destroyed for something as ethereal as redemption?" He let himself lean a bit, shoulder against Reaper's shoulder. "I have no right to judge your worth or your actions." The archer gave a deep sigh, they were both in this uncomfortable limbo. The things they had done, the regrets they harbored, the only thing to do was find peace with themselves. Even if they were never forgiven.

Hanzo shrugged a little. "Those things that matter, they are often difficult;" he said as he looked Reaper in the eyes. "They must be done. It would be dishonor otherwise."

Gabriel stayed silent as he listens to Hanzo, not moving when the other leaned against him a bit. Jeez, sounds a lot like him in a way. "You and I are a lot alike," he'll point out rather quietly as he uses his free hand to reach over to pour himself another cup of sake, chugging the liquid before sighing. "I destroyed something I was proud to be a part of. I was stupid then and I took it out on a lot of people, killed a lot of them including myself. It's something that will haunt me forever." He'll then shake his head as he leans against the other just a bit.

He glanced up when Hanzo talked again, watching the other closely before frowning just a bit. Well, it won't hurt to try and fix things. Hanzo is right though. Completely right.

"How unfortunate," Hanzo mused as he gave a shrug. Not that he meant it in a bad way, more in the fact that they were both such sorry sorts. Their lives were full of mistakes, things they'd brought on themselves. This was rather nice however, a little bit drunk, a bit of touch. "I thought I knew what was best for both of us. Genji and I. I believed that so greatly, I let myself be blinded. He was better off dead than a dishonor." He pulled his legs up under himself. "I wonder what that means from this moment forth. Perhaps we can make something more of it than running and death."

He wasn't sure what he meant by that, but it sounded better than just saying we're bad people who deserve bad things. Maybe that's how he felt. Who was he anyway? Hanzo Shimada. Some fool out for redemption. "We may yet find redemption."

Gabriel only let out a low noise in response, moving his hand away from the other's grip before moving it to push Hanzo's hair behind his hair. Hopefully all this won't make it.. well.. awkward. He'll stay silent with a lingering frown, sighing as he leans back a bit, playing with a tiny strand of Hanzo's hair. "Maybe you two can make amends, but I know you don't like how he currently is. I would try and talk to him because you'll never be happy if you don't." He then pulled away a bit as he runs his hand down his face, moving his hand to rest it on Hanzo's shoulder again.

"We may, yes. Though it seems like we need time for it," he'll respond softly, turning his gaze elsewhere in the room.

Hanzo didn't seem to react negatively to Gabriel moving his hair out of his face, just glancing at him from the side of his eye. Make amends with Genji? Never. He was no longer a man, no longer his brother, just a machine masquerading as Genji. "No, he is not the brother I knew, and he will never be," Hanzo replied with a tinge of mourning in that. "Genji is dead, what stands in his place is just a machine, nothing will change that." He snorted a bit. "What of you, would you make peace with those you killed? Would it make you happy to talk to them or would it only breed further pain?"

He sighed. "Time, how fleeting," he said with a brief frown. "Yesterday is already lost." He let his head lean against Reaper's, closing his eyes. "What have I already forgotten from a day gone by?"

That's too bad. "I see," he'll mumble softly, actually a bit impressed that Hanzo hasn't tried to do anything to him while touching him like this. Gabe considers that a good thing. Sort of? "Too bad that I can't help," he'll grumble as he moves his hand again to gently rub the other's back in a comforting manner. "I would try and make peace, but I know that they won't accept it. What I've done is something that can't be forgivable and they have every right to be angry." At the next question, he'll sigh as he leans against the other in return.

He then moved his arm, wrapping it around Hanzo's waist as well. Honestly, he has no idea how to respond so he'll stay silent at that, sighing.

It was rather dangerous wasn't it? Hanzo was a known assassin trained in a multitude of martial arts, and an assortment of deadly weapons yet here he was in some ways relaxed near Reaper. Honestly Gabriel was probably as deadly, perhaps it was the fact that they could both easily kill each other that put the Archer at ease. "Then you understand my position, and it is only made worse that my brother refuses to be Angry. Inner Peace he claims. Delusions taught to him by a machine, what can a machine know of peace?"

Feeling Reapers arm snake around his waist he briefly prickled but his heckles dropped as soon as they were raised. He took a deep breath before sliding himself a little closer, hand resting on Gabriel's knee. "My mind wanders to thoughts like these. I do not know from where they come, only that they disturb me more than I like."

The deadliest men in the world, possibly, sitting here and cuddled close in a small room. What are the odds? "Yes, I understand," Gabriel responded softly with a low noise sounding in his throat. "A machine cannot know peace, no matter if they are taught it or have it implanted. Peace is something hard to achieve, no matter who you are." Gabriel continued with a slight frown, moving his hand just a bit to run his fingers over the other's skin lightly.

Gabriel didn't mind the closeness at all, actually. It was nice. He'll move his free hand to rest it on Hanzo's hand, deciding to take a daring chance to completely hold the man close. "That's a shame," he'll mumble, now getting distracted with something else as he rests his forehead on Hanzo's shoulder.

Hanzo snorted a bit derisively at the thought. "Machines, they should have all been scrapped after the end of the crisis, why even let them remain? Why give them thoughts at all?" he muttered as he let out a sigh. "Such foolishness." He didn't seem to mind the touch even humming softly at it.

He supposed he could be distracted from them, as he looked to Gabriel's head against his shoulder, he tilted his and pressed his lips to the top of Reapers head. IT was a brief act and he turned his head to just lean against the other's after. "It is what it is, perhaps the thoughts remind me I am human after all. How short our lives are, we must not be afraid to act."

"I'm not sure why they remained," Gabriel answered quietly, continuing to run his fingers lightly over the other's skin as if the man is made out of some breakable material. He wants to be as gentle as possible, no matter what. Though he'll hear that small hum from the other man, taking that as a good sign to continue what he's doing.

"Lives are indeed short and you should make the most of it. Don't let things that haunt you follow you forever, it'll just kill you even after you pass on, trust me," he'll mumble rather softly, letting out a noise at that kiss. "Then you'll never have a chance to really enjoy anything without some sort of pain lingering in the back of your mind. You need to live life to the fullest," Gabriel continued just as softly before shifting just a bit.

Hanzo seemed to go silent for a while, how had he gone this far and for what? Was it Redemption? Was there some light he chased? What was he running from anymore? His home gone, his former life gone, his brother changed; now he turned contracts for cash, sought treasure. Was it greed or a hole that had no bottom trying to be filled? He let out a Tch sound at his own thoughts.

"I do not think I know how to let these things go, I do not know why I even continue; what is this life worth?" He asked softly and snorted. "Trust you, a funny thing to say considering who we are." Between them betrayals were simply a fact of life, both contracted to this organization who knew their goals? "Then what chance should I take here?" He glanced at Gabriel with slight perk to his brow. "As you have been so quick to tell me not to miss out on them."

That noise got Gabriel's attention, glancing up just a bit at the other before going back to his previous position. It's best not to ask too much questions, especially to know what Hanzo is thinking. He'll just let it be for now. Asking too many things is usually a bad thing, in his case anyway. Gabriel only let out a slightly concerned noise in response to the other's little 'tch' but said nothing more.

"I ask myself the same questions every day," he'll mumble softly as he decided to straighten up just a bit so he can get a better look at the other man. Gabriel couldn't help but smirk at the response to being trusted, rolling his eyes a bit as he glances off to the side. The question though, got Gabriel's full attention again as he turns his gaze to rest it on Hanzo's face, going into deep thought to try and find a good answer to it. Well, he actually can't find the right answer. "Do what is in your heart."
