You're not supposed to fix it, you're just supposed to care. You know how to care, right?
[Mick doesn't know how to explain empathy to someone, he barely gets it himself.]
I always wanted to fix the shit going on with Snart and I never could. So I just gave a shit and tried to have his back when he needed me. I didn't fix nothing, I was just there. As a distraction, as back up, as a babysitter. You gotta be what you need to be for the people who need you and that changes all the damn time.
[There's a slight pause.]
To be clear, I'm not saying pretend to be someone else. Just adapt how to act.
