how to care for your macgyver as told by jack dalton

1 dont because i will always be there before you

2. sure, he's a genius on paper, but he's an idiot. bring snacks for him always because he forgets he's a human that needs to eat

3. when he's nervous he'll start fidgeting. unless you want your toaster taken apart and made into a bomb, have paperclips on hand.

4. for no reason other than because he wants them, have zip ties. you might not be the terrorist in the situation but god forbid you forget the zipties -you will be the bad guy

5. he hates admitting to being injured- physically or otherwise, so you have to take it upon yourself to determine if he's alright or not. he can and will hide injuries from you

6. again, for somebody with such a high IQ, he is the dumbest person you'll probably meet. remind him he doesn't carry a gun and that the assailant is at least 200 pounds of muscle. he cannot take them by himself.

7. not only will he forget to eat, but he will try to avoid sleep for weeks at a time. this cannot happen. literally pin him down if you need to.

8. he will constantly try to sacrifice himself. don't let this happen. he's smart enough to get everyone out, he just needs to remember that.

9. sometimes you'll see him get overwhelmed. it's really important that you know how to calm him down so he can focus- you can deal with the fallout later.

10. sometimes his mind will wander to previous ops. he's still trying to figure them out. distract him with a random story.

Murdoc: it’s time for you to die.
