I wasn't better off out here with you still in there.
[ Flynn bites out. It's not a negotiable thing in his own head: leaving Yuri in there to bleed out was an unacceptable outcome, something he could never even have considered, no matter what Yuri says, no matter the risk to his own life. If they'd have died in there together then at least when they'd come back together they could have figured something out. Better than letting Yuri think he was in there alone without any support while Flynn moved on with his life.
Which might not be what Yuri thinks. Flynn doesn't know anymore: he's too tired to think clearly, catastrophizing where he shouldn't be, and he knows it. He turns his head, pressing his forehead against Yuri's. ]
I'm always going to come back for you. You have to know that.
