[His breathing evens out as much as it can given the situation as he's laid down, covered and protected. He brings both of his hands to the back of Lahabrea's neck so he can hold him close.
And finally, finally it looks like he'll have time to get his wits around him so he's not simply reactive.
....And then there is the soul pouring. Perhaps not.
He gives out a sharp hiss of pleasure as the fear melts away. And he's so tired and boneless at this point that there is no resistance. He lets him take and find space in as much of his soul as Lahabrea desires. He practically just gives it to him.
And now that Lahabrea has taken residence he'll feel his love for him, his joy, his concern, his fear, and guilt and self-revulsion and mourning and exhaustion.... the list goes on. Can he really tell Hades' emotions separate from his own at this point?]
