He laughed, the sound a little pained, but it was a genuine sound, a little blood spilling over his lips. "So long as you promise not to bleed out on me in turn," knew they were both fucked. Had managed to see enough with how Jack had been trapped and pinned, punctured. Both of them were in trouble, but hell if he knew where they could go for help; the very things they both trusted screamed danger in his brain now. They only had each other.
Someone, or a group of someones, had literally dropped a building on top of them both and everything hurt. Bruises and bones, couldn't tell what was broken and what was just radiating pain from impact. Christ. Fuck. Could take some comfort from the fact Jack was there and close, that they were both still breathing.
Mind still racing, a pile-up of thoughts and fears, paranoia and the more rational all a jumbled mix he had to sort through. Nodding to just stealing a whole vehicle. Easier. "Not hard to kill the injured under the guise of rescue personnel. Air injection, syringes aren't suspicious to carry," wouldn't look like a murder if they were found alive and someone was actually up there to make sure they were dead.
Kiss was returned, didn't care about the taste of blood or how sensitive his skin felt, it was Jack. His warmth, his weight. Alive, both still alive. Their link strong and enough to draw strength, or even gather it between them to move.
Honestly? Neither did he, "I know."
Both of them had to push through, put their own survival above anything and everything else; they wouldn't be able to help if they had come across any survivor. Using his own body to boost Jack ahead if he needed, keep something held stable before he moved to follow after. While Jack worried about him, Gabriel was damn well making sure Jack was going to make it out, even if blood slicked skin made some of his gripping to climb and pull himself more difficult.
Rain slick rubble making it that much more treacherous in some areas, but hell if the cool rain didn't soothe when it was more felt, but also stung in other ways.
