"I'm sorry I'm not him." He knows that Dave meant everything to Klaus. When Klaus wouldn't get clean for anyone or anything, he wanted to do it for the chance to see Dave again. Just the chance.
But he can hug Klaus tight and touch him softly, stroke his skin gently and let one of Them mimic his hands, stroking Klaus's shoulder in a mimicry of human affection. Ben can press a closed mouth kiss to Klaus' collarbone and his brow into his neck and he can try and take the weight of Klaus's grief to let him mourn, because he doesn't know how to do anything actual useful.
