( soooo, he'll just slide on in eventually, finally and fully claiming his spot. and with Thomas' arms around him, however loosely, it doesn't seem like he'll be going anywhere too quickly.

he lets Thomas have the last word for now, and just smiles into the back of his hand.

but then some time passes, and some of the thoughts are settling in again. ) Thomas, please stay safe.

[At least he knows better than to talk back, when Thomas is already letting him get away with this much, including stealing part of his blanket. Though, of course, it's not like this isn't a familiar situation, is it, and even if it's been some years, since the last Michael has felt the need to crawl into his bed for comfort, the routine is still familiar.

He's closed his eyes again by the time Michael speaks up, though he cracks them open again to shoot him an irritated look (though his voice totally lacks the heat to back it up).]

Idiot. You just worry about yourself.

[Because seriously, it's not like Thomas can't take care of himself. Or of both of them for that matter, if he needs to. If he can help it, he's not going to let anything happen to either of them (and/or Rio) and it's not like they don't have any support outside this house either. It's not like Chris is miles and miles away again.]

( well, Thomas ought to know how little brothers are. though he may like to be able to rely upon his older brothers, there's always a part of him that impels him to prove himself. it also makes him guilty for not being able to at least take care of himself; from time to time he's also reminded that he failed his family, too, but that is news that is growing older by the day. { like now. he hadn't foreseen something like this, not truly. }

still, even if he takes Thomas' love and support for granted, and he's learnt that standing together makes you stronger, he always will strive to do the best that he can. that's a trait the two of them have in common. with Rio in the house that just adds another person to the household he considers himself as the protector of.

when he speaks to Thomas, he doesn't open his eyes, and sighs a bit. ) I'm not an idiot, you are of if you'd think I'd do that. No way do only you and Chris get to say cool, heartfelt things like that.
