Yeah all of that's going to take a bit to work through, his brain already feels like it's covered in ants, so jumping from one thing to another is about as difficult as anything else he's got going on right now.
But the first thing is that it clicks they're from somewhere much older than him, and Hawkeye sets about making them both a hot chocolate on the small wood stove inside. Almost out of cocoa. He puts less in his cup so that Lev can have more.
"Oh- no, all our cadavers these days are donated, eh- the stiffs all agree to it before they die, I mean. We haven't done dissection as- as punishment in my world for a couple of hundred years. And it's been about... what, forty-something since a Tsar was overthrown, for me."
Certainly well before his time, and early in his mother's life. They wouldn't have ended up in America otherwise.
"General physician, it sounds like, then, right- oh-" and then just a little bit of a scramble as Lev just comes out with- it's just very direct. And yeah, Hawkeye's been sleeping his way through people with genders he can't quite wrap his head around, but it's-
"A bris? Like a circumcision?" OH- "OH- oh, I get- I mean I'm an omnivore myself but there's this swell nurse in town- Chris- they're uh- they're similar, in that regard, kind of, I think, I mean- it's their business, but they've also been pretty open about- you know what? I'm gonna stick with Leyb. Anyway- no roses where I'm from aside from the flowers. Uh- payos? Khavrusa?" and maybe it's the Yiddish already in his vocabulary, but the words sit right in his mouth.
