"You might not care, but I do. I care if someone gets hurt on my watch. Not them and not you."

The wink has him just a little flustered. He's sure the young man is just teasing. He's positive that it's not really flirting because it's been far far too long since anything like that has happened for him. He's sure this is just a playful young man that's had it hard in his life. He can't be all that serious about flirting with a huge scarred veteran.

It's still fun to act like he's still in his prime. Still young and blond, in the height of his glory. "Me. When I catch you." Not if, but when. He's too stubborn not to think he'll be able to do more than just touch this young man. The height of his once youthful arrogance returned for just tonight. Perhaps what has possessed this young man has a few tendrils in him too in a way. "I don't know. I would say a kiss, but I won't force anyone like that. So maybe I'll just keep hold of you until this is over and we all go to where we're going to be staying. To see that you stay out of trouble and see you to our new homes safely."
