A narrative that was false and just meant to tie everything up in a bow, but it also meant they would have a large amount of freedom to move if they did things just right. Use it to their advantage, even if they couldn't live anything close to a normal life; Gabriel didn't plan on settling down with all of this anyway. "We're a force to be reckoned with together," two man army.

Gabriel didn't plan on just leaving things like that, but he knew they needed to focus on healing and other things before diving in to combat the story. Couldn't just go in guns blazing, they had to take out as many people involved as possible all at once, and that would take time and planning.

Eyes rolled more at the second statement than the first. "You need to eat as much as I do- didn't we have a deal? I eat only if you eat, or you going back on that." How he remembered that one was something, and he sounded more mildly grumpy than anything, even if it died in that continued hollowed out tone. He glanced up at Jack once noticing he was there looking down at him, a hand placed back against the bed and only the other offered up.

"Fine."

"Always will be," even if they had to take it easy for a while, but that wasn't stopping Gabriel's mind from planning ahead. What they could do, but most importantly what they needed to do. How they were going to get out of this city and where they could go after the bunker. Anything to keep them both going and safe until they could plan something more.

There was a slight narrowing of eyes, but the affect was sort of lost with how glassy those normally dark yet warm brown eyes looked. Mixture of exhaustion and pain just making everything a mess. "You mean trying to punish me after your tantrum like I was the one in the wrong, me retaliating because that was damn well crossing a line in your anger, and then you went off to mope and re-break your hand." Could say it was a temper tantrum before that yes, emotions running high and fear a spike through the pit of his stomach of how it could all go wrong if Jack had gone out that door. Didn't fight the help up.

Gabriel figured if he struggled it would just be worse on Jack, catching him by the wrist of the not ruined hand. "You need to let me take care of you, or else this isn't going to work." Any of it.

"It was cruel, and I did it for a reason that you know because you apologized for it." Both for turning that anger on him as he was starting to do again, and to make a point he wasn't about to voice just yet. "Which you're getting dangerously close to again, because you're just as goddamn stubborn, if not more, than I am. More so when it's cutting this damn personal for the both of us," A warning and an acknowledgement all in one. "I'm not going to claim shit, because I don't have the energy to argue over this petty shit with you—"

Wasn't about to be letting go of Jack's wrist either, despite how damn horrible he looked and sounded, that was a strong grip.

"—More so when you're standing there actively bleeding, you fuck. It's not just taking turns, but doing for each other when it's needed."

"If this is how you're going to act," spoken very slowly, as evenly as he could manage without leaving room for argument, "each and every time I voice concern and want over you? When we're both injured, nearly died, or anything like that... The moment we're both healed, it may be best if we part ways."

Then he let go of Jack's wrist, shifting to turn his back on the man so very much like Jack had done to him, and simply laid on his side.

gr1m: (Take some sweet time)
From: [personal profile] gr1m
The only thing he had been able to keep back from the connection was every bit of hurt that Jack's own words and the way he was acting dug deeper than anything else. This wasn't like those arguments, and he was in no state of mind or emotion to be some easy target for the anger. The sheer unwillingness to work with him that Jack was now expressing in everything. Fighting him at every step.

They couldn't work together like that, and if it was going to continue he couldn't do it. It would break him. All he could do was make it as clear as he could if this kept up... he would leave once he was able. Blunt and probably cruel, but it needed to be said.

Even Gabriel had sucked it up and let Jack do what was needed for him, relented because even his own stubbornness and anger wouldn't help them. Then he'd continued on, acting as if he didn't need Gabriel, refused to let him help— He couldn't keep this up, he couldn't. When they needed to come together all Morrison was doing was pushing him away and it burned more than the fire, hurt more than every injury currently healing.

So he remained still and silent, eyes closed tightly. Keeping all of that pain locked up tight.

Gabriel was going to keep his side of it locked down, it felt like every time he tried to reach out he was only met with anger. What was the point? He was too tired and hurt to keep being met with it whenever he tried to get Jack to sit down. Eat. Let him help him. Resistance at every turn and it wore him even more thin.

Neither of them were in a good place, and simply made it worse.

His breathing was starting to break up the longer the silence went on, shoulders hunched an curling more in to himself as if trying to silence the cause.

His chest hurt, and he couldn't tell if it was because of his lung or his heart, an ache that had settled there deep. A hand pressed firmly over his mouth, curled up as small as he could get himself, even if it was as slowly as possible, trying damned hard to keep it to himself. Mostly because he could feel the tears welling up, starting to fall.

Some silent break down, or one he was trying to keep silent even that lock down of emotions.

Didn't even register the hand on his shoulder at first, the subtle trembling better felt than seen, some tenseness that ran through him entirely. Hard as he was fighting to keep the trouble to himself, tasting blood and as far as he knew it could be from the hand over his mouth than anywhere from his throat or lungs.

Once the weight on his shoulder was noticed? Gabriel's own hand moved over it, nails digging a bit but only due to how tightly the hold seemed to be. As if afraid it would leave if his hold loosened.

gr1m: (As the world falls down)
From: [personal profile] gr1m
Needed Jack as much as he was needed in turn, but he refused to let up on that lock down out of the irrational thought and feeling of it all being unwanted. Even knowing that, worn thin and frayed as they both were, wouldn't lift it. Didn't let go of that hand either. Even if he didn't, couldn't relax with the sudden weight and warmth against his back.

Just continued as Gabriel still forced himself in to that silence.

gr1m: (Let me just be here)
From: [personal profile] gr1m
Hiding from each other through the ink emotionally always made things worse, made it feel disconnected and lonely even if the rest of their bond was there. Alone in their own misery without any sort of relief or emotional presence to even begin soothing it. Cut off.

Gabriel still smelled of blood, ash, and sweat all mixed together, some undertone of the sterile nature of what bandaging there was on him. Only the areas that needed stitching and wrapping held that scent. A tug to Jack's hand, as if some silent plea for more than just keeping it there on his shoulder, hand trembling more from the movement.

gr1m: (Let there be rest)
From: [personal profile] gr1m
Stubbornness and pride, something neither of them could really break from the habit of when tempers flared and got the best of common sense- and then not wanting the other to hurt more from feeling it from the other side as well. A vicious circle that would have been worked out by now if they'd been able to use normal means.

Like this? They couldn't.

Fingers gripped Jack's arm and held it there once it settled across his chest, as if to help hold him close that way. At least when he felt the tentative reach from the bond he opened up his ended a little; the smallest bit of pain, and so much more still held back. No flooding, whatever he could do to prevent that.

The both of them had burned out to the point they couldn't think of anything more to do other than shutdown. Frayed and at their wits end with so many things still seeming to bury them deeper, even if they were out of the wreckage of their life's work together. Neither of them had been pushed this far, or had been so emotionally hurt to have letting a fight cut so deep.

Pain and exhaustion swirled together from Gabriel's end, so very slowly as even then it become too much to keep it on full lockdown. Still no flood, but with the physical pain came that deep emotional hurt as well. Even a touch was enough to explain why he was so worn down that he was forcing himself in to silent sobs rather than just letting go completely. Worry and anxiety.

Clung to Jack's arm like it was a lifeline, the other still forced over his mouth to silence noises. Breath hitching, even shallow. Didn't want to let go of Jack.
