He bites the inside of his cheek as Mick's fingers brush across his skin. He doesn't do well with these things, and who could be surprised when he's spent his life with touch always translating to pain and lessons about how wrong and terrible and worthless he is? Not an easy thing to get past. Mick has gotten further than anyone else, so really, he should be glad for earning that much.
Once Mick's inspection is done, he pulls his shirt back on, taking the bottle and tapping out a couple of pills to toss into his mouth. More to make Mick happy than anything because he would have probably just gone without it otherwise. "Earlier, but-" he shrugs, "Lis might be hungry."
And it's almost like uttering her name makes her appear because it's that moment that Lisa rushes back into the room. "Mickey, I'm all ready for my hot chocolate!" She beams up at him. For all that she went through tonight, she's bouncing back with relative ease.
Or she's taking cues from her big brother in how to handle things. Leonard isn't sure he likes the idea of her pushing things aside the way he does, but what does he do about it?
