Hiding Away - [action - locked to Savitar]

Sara was gone.
Snart was gone.
Hell, the flock of hatchlings were gone with the exception of little Haircut.

Training in Egypt wasn't helping. Watching the fire curl around his limbs and obey his commands wasn't helping. So Mick slipped from the apartment. Ghosted from one place to another. Drinking. Eating. Trying to fill the empty chasm in his chest left as the two people who had been his anchors, his touchstones, had been ripped away yet again.

Even stealing a supply of speedster booze hadn't helped.

He was tired. He was sick and exhausted. A fever making the world swim and an ache settling into his joints like they were made of ground glass. So as Mick slips into a feverish doze, he barely notices the way Haircut Jr flies off, tiny alarmed chirps filling the air.

He can find help.
Somewhere.

The missing speedster booze, he'd missed right away. Pretty much when he decided to switch his hiding places (and who was he hiding them from, exactly? Himself?), he'd found some missing and well. The list of who could've taken them was pretty short. Either Cisco or Caitlin in a fit of trying to protect him from his own ridiculousness, Bart for god knows why or...well, probably not Kara.

So Mick. Probably Mick. Something to ask him about later.

Or now, he thinks later on when a Haircut Jr ends up at his door.

Savitar would be flabbergasted to know Mick Rory liked him, but it would absolutely cement the plan he had with Barry about Mick and Cisco.

The dragon tugging at him like Lassie frantic about a boy in a well certainly gets his attention, and gets him following as fast as one can follow a frantic dragon that probably doesn't fly as fast as Savitar runs.

At first he thinks it's just from the speedster booze, the blackout. But once he's closer, it becomes very obvious that's not the case. And just like that, his head's right in medical-mode and checking Mick's vitals and what have you.

The fever? Really concerning. More than a little. "Mick?" Careful face tapping. Carrying Mick out of here? Well, he might be able to do it, but it'd be easier if Mick could even just stumble.
vivifier: (future: sigh)

Savitar snorted, and worked on hoisting and hauling Mick to his feet. Even if he has to support him, it's still easier and better than dragging him out or trying to actually carry him.

God, what he'd give for his armor right about now.

"Nope. Come on. Up and at 'em."
vivifier: (bangs)

"I'm just guessing, but I think you got loaded on speedster booze." What's causing the fever, he has no idea. Right now, he's concentrating on getting Mick out of the building. He could speed them out, but he has a horrible feeling that would be...messy.

"I saw them too." The idea it was a time storm bleeding through hadn't occured to him, and it has not yet occured that might be the reason for Mick's current condition. But it may at some point, Savitar's a smart boy.

"I'm going to take you back to my place for now." Sober him up a bit, maybe figure out this fever. Speedster booze or something else?
vivifier: (so)

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-04 02:18 am (UTC)(link)
"Fair enough." Barry Allen would never advocate stealing someone's car, even for something like this, would he? Savitar, however, is pretty sure that no one wants him speeding someone home who may at any moment throw up several cans of speedster alcohol and regular speed walking might take a long, long time.

"Oh, look. That one's purple." Score?
vivifier: (short with you)

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-04 02:40 am (UTC)(link)
And now Savitar will know the basics of car hotwiring for the future. Just in case. Score?

He gets them on the road, making sure Mick is secure in the passenger seat before starting them out. "I'm guessing the answer is no, but did you want to talk about it?" Whatever made him go 'give me that speedster booze', obviously.

"So I've heard." He can hear things through the grapevine, it's not impossible. "I'm sorry." He actually is, too. More so for Mick, since he supposes Mick is...a friend? Somehow? When did that happen?
vivifier: (like your SOUL)

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-04 03:19 am (UTC)(link)
"I get that." Most people have to have someone, right? Someone to keep them going in the right direction, keep them from becoming a monster or worse. "Maybe they'll come back. We don't know how this works yet."

Well, there were plenty of people trying to step up for that job. To Savitar's surprise and occasional annoyance.

"I'm not going anywhere." As if he could help it. But where would he go? Back home to die in literally five minutes?

"Mm. Probably." He glances at Mick. "Maybe don't fall asleep just yet."
vivifier: (face)

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-05 02:31 am (UTC)(link)
"If you think I'm going to let you or anyone else die, you've lost your mind." Things he never, ever imagined saying to anyone here, much less Mick Rory. "We'll figure this out."
vivifier: (midvale?)

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-05 03:34 am (UTC)(link)
"I'm not a kid," he points out. A little inanely.

"Then we'll get dark matter." Somehow in someway. If anyone can manage to figure it out, it'll be Savitar. And if he can't, he'll call Cisco.

A hard turn of the steering wheel. "Yeah, well. If you die, I'll be dragging your ass back from whatever hell you end up in, so don't get any ideas."

Look, he will find a way. Don't test him, Mick.
vivifier: (midvale?)

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-05 06:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Apparently Savitar has decided to be one of those people. Go figure. Maybe this is what happens when you bring a time remnant a sandwich when he's drunk? "Good."
vivifier: (oh fine)

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-06 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
He parks the car in front of the building, turning to look at Mick. "You're one of mine too." That's easier to say when someone's sick or hurt. Why? God only knows, but it's true. "Try not to fall asleep or pass out until we're upstairs, okay? I don't think you want to get sped up there."

vivifier: (A vision with nowhere to go)

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-06 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
Savitar knows better than to poke at that thread. Maybe later, when people aren't sick and dying, but now? Ha ha. No. "Good." He gets out of the car, over to the other side to help Mick out of it. Then, making their way to the apartments.

[personal profile] vivifier 2018-03-06 08:34 pm (UTC)(link)
It takes forever, but eventually they get to Savitar's apartment. Where he'll help Mick lay down on the couch and go to get some ice and some water.
