Dave was... such a normal fucking person.
And someone who isn't close to him would think that Klaus, being very dramatic and extravagant himself wouldn't get together with someone like Dave
But I think it's perfect actually
They have been dehumanized as children, they were given numbers instead of names, they weren't kids, they were soldiers.
So he grew up thinking he can't be loved, he isn't worthy of love or both (he sure doesn't love himself) and tries to fill the void with alcohol, drugs and sex
But it never leads to happiness
He's a Texas boy who worked at a DIY shop, favourite food is a burger with two pickles, favourite book is Dune and he has always felt like an outsider in his own family
He wasn't some great scientist, wasn't part of an elite group, didn't have magical powers. Even his reason for enlisting is because there was this pressure because his uncle and dad had already served
But suddenly this man just appears and he is wholeheartedly himself, does things, says things without any rhyme or reason. And Dave feels free
And Dave looks at Klaus with the utmost adoration, desire, devotion, like he hung the stars and painted the night black, like he was the reflection of the moon on the lake.
He showed Klaus what it's like to be loved. That he can be loved. Klaus loved Dave.
And Klaus knew that Dave loved him.
And that's what made his death so unbearably painful
