"I know." He knew full well what a story like that would mean for him, do for hi chances of just going out anywhere in public. He'd already decided against showing his face anywhere the moment he had dropped in to this sort of survival mode however. Fully prepared for the consequences it meant. "I know."
Took advantage of that leaning in to him, get that much more of a secure grip around Jack. Doing his best to avoid tearing open any stitching anywhere, but it couldn't be helped, had felt like a couple of his own had popped. That searing pain along his side, under the bandaging, was all the proof he needed.
His head shook. "The public was calling for your head this week as it was, Jack." Turned against him so easily.
"The type of asshole you are," as if they needed more aches and pains from this entire experience. Coaxing Jack's head to rest against his chest, keeping the man held so close against him. "Please."
