"I'm always interested." If Mick had things to do, he got a lot less destructive but as it stood, no one knew how to pull in his interests and make him care. Leonard did. Even in juvie, he was a positive influence. He made Mick more subtle about his wrong doings and get into less fights, he wasn't entirely 'good' for Mick but he was good at keeping a handle on him. "You always have ideas too. If there's one thing I know, it's that Leonard Snart is never short of ideas."
"This is why we work well together." In some ways it might have started out as brains and brawn, but not only was Leonard far from weak himself, he also knew by now that Mick was a lot smarter than he let people see and than he saw himself. They worked together because they complemented each other in the right ways. "I got until twelve today, then I'll go get my girl. But I'm free tomorrow afternoon, if things pan out as I think they will."
"Good, I won't be in school tomorrow so text me and we'll meet up." Tomorrow was the healthy option at lunch. If the school wasn't going to draw him in with good food then he wasn't going to give a shit. Simple as. Leonard could still have his attention, he could always make time for that. "Shit, I almost forgot. You got a sis, don't you?" The one he and Mick had their first proper fight over. All because he asked if she was cute.
"Yeah, Lisa. They got a children's group down at the youth center near my place almost every day, so I get her there most mornings." Not as if he'd risk leaving her alone at home. "She's three now." Still so tiny. Still needing him. Fragile and he was so sure he would mess up, because all she had was him and what could he really do? What could he offer her? Leonard pushed the thoughts away and checked his phone. "I got her a phone, so sometimes she sends pictures. Usually I have no idea what of."
"You still with your dad?" Mick knew that guy was bad news and he was kind of hoping that the two had come here to get away. Poor Lisa, she had a rough deal. Snart was old enough to handle himself but from what he heard of the kid, she was pretty young and kids that age felt things pretty hard. Nothing made sense and everything hurt. "That's pretty cute. I guess three year olds ain't the best at texting, especially when they can't read or write."
"Yeah, still with him. But he's active over in Starling a lot right now, gotta wait for heat to die down here." So that helped. Now if only he could get arrested over in Starling too, but he could only hope. Leonard pulled his phone out again just to check on the pictures, pulling out the ones Lisa had taken some days ago. Which mostly showed that she liked to eat cake with her hands and a lot. "Reminds me of you."
"Great. If that dick give you hassle, just tell me. I'll come help." As much as a teenage boy could help in a situation like that but hey, he could always try. He tilted his head to the side and looked at the picture, frowning before he rolled his eyes and playfully shoved Leonard. "Oh piss off." Like he was going to eat cake that badly... again. Okay so he did it once in juvie but he had a lot of bootleg wine that night and coordinating food to mouth was awkward. "You're such a dick."

Fortunately he'd learned his lesson now.
