Jack of the Frost is back in the bar, with a box. He's trying to tie ribbon around it, like a present, and it's failing utterly.

Ribbon is too damned fiddly.

Beat.

"Italy is closer than upstairs?"

"We are going to Italy."

He gives Johnny his hands.

"Up. You can use our couch."

He takes the hand and drags himself to his feet.

"What's a couch?" he asks, following, more steady now.

"Somewhere to sleep."

He slides an arm around him, just in case. Falling right now won't help him any.

"So we can make sure you are better."

"That man made me better? I thought he was trying to kill me."

Leaning slightly on Jack.

"Thanks."

"I would not have let him kill you."

Precious little he could have done to stop him, but he likes to pretend.

He gets the door open with one hand and a sharp kick, and welcome, Johnny, to Jack's appartment. (http://users.livejournal.com/_to_the_bone/28044.html)
