In another time that'll have a much more positive meaning. But right now that means helping John bundle their friend into his arms, pulling one of his own gloves off with his teeth so he can tug Charlie's collar down, looking for a pulse or an injury.
What he finds is a fresh scar, just shy of his voice box. And he pauses, just for a moment, as a swell of complicated fucking emotions hits him.
And then gets summarily compartmentalised away for later, as he instead yanks his knit cap off and tugs it over Charlie's head. "I-I don't think he's bleeding, but- let's get to the Hall, it's closer."
