[ He gets a neat stack of six peanut butter cookies dropped onto his palm. ]

Not unless I get thrown in prison again.

[Yeah, Teddy's gonna get all six of those in his mouth; he's restless, nervous, worried sick, and hasn't eaten much since Billy got drafted. It's easy to eat pretty much anything when you can shift your jaw a little.

With so much cookies in his mouth, it takes him a bit of time to actually chew it all and swallow. But once he does, he lets out a long sigh and presses his hand against his forehead.

Dammit. That's his fiancé out there.]

The second we get there, we're looking for Billy. [And helping others, that goes without saying. But Billy is priority number one for the both of them right now.]

[ Tommy watches. It's sort of watching a snake unhinge it's jaw, cool but spooky - and extra spooky when it's a human jaw that's doing that. The speedster dusts his hands off and swings his suddenly packed bag over his shoulder.]

Obviously.

[It's nice to get a bit of food, even if it is technically junk food. He doesn't care if Tommy thinks he's creepy for the whole jaw maneuver; his self-image issues are nothing right now. There are probably people dead out there, a few people died under his watch in the clinic, and he can't, can't let anyone else die. It's one of the reasons why he's so hyper-focused now; his head can't be on the blood and the light fading from the eyes of his own patients, of the way the hand squeezing his loosened. And he absolutely can't let that happen to Billy. Never.

He looks back at Tommy as he twitches his own shoulder, where his backpack rests.]

Are we ready?

I was ready like an hour ago. Let's blow this pop stand.

[ Forcefully optimistic and light, but done with the ease that one would never know. Tommy's a sociopath, after all. Amoral and brutal and thrives in the war. He's brutal and he's rough, the men attacking them are out to get them all, and he'll deal with it. He's got what it takes to protect them all.

And he's dealt with watching people he loves dying on him before. Teenagers aren't immortal, contrary to popular belief. ]
