"S'worth it." Jerome's voice muffled from the ground just before they helped him back up. He was looking clammy and sick, Shifting his arm to try and get back under his own power while the men helped support him up.
Inked eyes found Shawn and while his eyes were half lidded, he stared deeply at the kid, as if he was able to read the boys story by the lines on his face, the feel of his eyes. Alone. No doubt. "Life like that.. S'rough. 'Joined my gang at ten so I wouldn't be alone. A ********' gang." He said vaguely.
He glanced over at Hayes, eying the blond man wrap his arm, feeling grateful to the man, that now his arm was at least not a deformed shape.
"S'worth it." he repeated. "N'matter what life shits at ya, y'don't face it alone, y'don't gatta. Nothin' replaces bein' able to laugh with yer bro's, be dumb shits, r' pull of some sweet stunts." Jerome leaned his head back. "People need that man. all a' us. Pain be ********, ya just gatta deal with it. An' its ganna happen."
He kept his head back for a second, not looking at any of them. He seemed like he was in pain again, since his hand suddenly clenched around the back of Aulus' upper arm while the Agent held him up. "N'when they die y'better ********' look em in the eye." He said this with a more stern edge then he had since he was brought back. "Y'don't leave yer bros... Bros don't leave you."

Aulus was avoiding his gaze again. Well, Shadow didn't know what the man had gone through. Best to leave him alone. Mentally he wondered if he should have said anything to the agent at all. At least talking was something of a distraction to them all for the time being, though.
Listening to Jerome as Hayes worked on the gangster's arm, the teen was determined to keep his gaze trained on the tattooed man's face and away from the injury. He nodded solemnly, taking in what was said, and smiling slightly at the mention of being 'dumb shits' and pulling off sweet stunts.
He tensed when the other grunt seemed to be in pain again, holding on to Aulus tight. From the tone and edge in Jerome's voice, he wondered what the guy had been through to make him say such a thing. No doubt he had witnessed and gone through some trying ordeals, possibly including the death of one or more of his 'bros'.
Aulus kept glancing at Hayes. What had happened to that pair? Shadow guessed that was something between those two and them alone. He wasn't likely to pry, especially at such a delicate time. It was hard being helpless, though. With a heavy sigh, he gradually left the three older male Rockets when Hayes was finished and went to join Tambrey.
"I'm...I'm really sorry. About what happened earlier," he told her quietly, staring at the ground. "I should have kept my big mouth shut. It's just that I have a hard time doing that when I'm afraid. That, and...I guess I'm not used to having to worry about other people getting hurt because of me." He rubbed his other arm anxiously.

She looked up, bleary eyed, when Shawn approached. Aware, on some level, of how beaten up she must look, and still unable to move much at all from where Xander had placed her against the wall, she made an effort to produce some sort of smile anyway. For Shawn and Xander, and anyone else who happened to be looking. "... 's fine." It could have been a reply to either of them, likely was to both. "... no one 't fault, no one t'know." All she really wanted was for them all to be out. Their own rooms, own beds... The base. Home. Tambrey remained slumped there against the wall, but offered her arms; a gesture to invite a hug from the younger grunt in front of her. ".. 'm fine." Claimed the battered, somewhat burned woman.
She was glad for them being kept together; that helped her smile attempt. As painful as it was for all of them, the treatment they received, at least by being kept together there had been this chance for Hayes to tend to Jerome's arm. And having each other was keeping them mostly sane, as far as she could work out; they knew they had to look out for each other and that the others would look out for them.
