[he hums to himself, thinking. sure, he's heard it's maybe a bad idea to lose color, but he's seen at least one person without some of it and he'd seemed fine? just... completely unconcerned with anything.
a reasonable person would not suggest this to a stranger, but then a reasonable person also would not think 'you know, that actually doesn't sound so bad right now'. it might be nice, not feeling low-key worried about fifty different things.
so he brightens, and like it's a totally normal request:]
You could try taking my color? I'd like to see what happens.
[well. most people would think twice about doing something like that, because it sure sounds like that could go horribly wrong! thankfully (?), gandharva's moral compass is somewhere close to nonexistent, so his one reservation is something like, "i hope people don't think i'm a horrible person if i do this."
but since ryan's willing, it shouldn't be a big deal, right? besides, he's a little curious.]
I'm not completely sure how one does that, but I can try.
Just consider that part of the experiment, then. I don't really have any idea either...
[he'd half expected to have to insist it was fine, but honestly, he doesn't at all mind that it isn't the case. that's just extra effort involved in getting to the point of all of this, right?
so he still seems pretty unconcerned, just humming thoughtfully under his breath as he considers.]
I mean, contact's usually a good bet with any kind of transfer, from what I know. Which is all secondhand, admittedly, but still.
[gandharva takes his hand, and concentrates. one of the advantages of being as old as balls and all the experience to go with it is that (even if you fail at your wisdom stat) you have a good sense of how to intuitively do things, so.

All right, then. Give me your hand.

Go ahead and give it a shot.
