If feelings could make Axel's heart stop, he would have died from the emotion pouring into his body.
Not again.
After all this time, his baby brother, the only person he was certain he could ever love, was trying to destroy himself again, because he couldn't keep up with his problems. And somehow, Axel couldn't shake the thought that he could have prevented it from his red head. Of course he could have prevented it. If it were anyone else, he would have noticed the sneaking that he would have had to do in order to get the Mako on board. But it was Reno. He thought that shit was done with, damnit.
Taking control of himself, he ground his teeth as he sought out rope from the underbelly of the ship. Reno's gone cold turkey once, and he'll just have to do it again.
