[ He makes no comment on the alarm that crosses Mick's features but he does reach out to place a hand on the other man's shoulder, squeezing. Looking to the door, he considers what might it take to ward the door to let him know if Mick gets past a barricade---
And promptly decides that's work for the morning. A quick gesture of his hand moves the dresser in front of the door and he gently nudges at Mick. ]
Better plan, you get comfortable I'm staying down here with you tonight.
[ Mick wants to protest, but he's achy and exhausted and he remembers lying with John after John had gone through similar. The comfort he knows he'd derive from it is very real and he's past the point of embarrassment with John, anyway.
He curls back into bed, pulling the blanket up over him and leaving room for John. Slash is sleeping in her little makeshift heated blanket burrow on the bedside table, too. ]
[ There’s an almost argument that comes. Maybe not so much arguing as protesting. The bloke doth protest too much and all that other rubbish, yeah? Save it.
Still, the moment passes and Mick concedes in that silent clash of wills. He climbs up under the blanket and settles in on his left side, facing toward the middle of the bed. ]
[ Mick turns and curls a little towards John with a grunt. Maybe he should say thanks or any other number of things, but instead he closes his eyes and breaths deep.
He doesn't trust easily and maybe that's in part because it's mutual. A lot of the Legends have made it clear over the years that he's one of them, but his motives are in question more than anyone else's and fair enough because he has turned on them a few times. He'd trusted Snart and Amaya and they're both gone. He trusts Nate, but he's not here. He still doesn't know where anything stands with Charlie now.
It's all just a lot more than he's used to sifting through, but he's starting to trust John and he's not sure if that's a good thing or if he'll get burned.

Thanks I guess.
