Mirage doesn't fight Oracle's touch or that soft, sweet kiss, nor does he lean into them. It is perhaps that lack, that tacit withdrawal, which might tell Oracle exactly how broken the spy really is. He's not had a proper defrag in days, he's been attacked on so many levels. It's enough to break down anyone, even an Ivory Tower mech such as he.
He cycles air, the sound harsh and ragged, his optics still shut tight. "I never ask for more from anyone, never more than what they wish to give. It is enough, must be enough, for someone who lives as I do. It does not stop me from wishing... sometimes...."
Mirage's optics finally slide open and he looks into Oracle's own sightless band for barely a moment before he grabs her by the shoulders, pulls her against him, and kisses her fiercely, as if to lose himself in her. It is a short kiss for all the violence of it, and when it's done Mirage attempts to curl himself into her arms and lay his head upon her shoulder.

At even further signs of the damage these recent events have done to him Oracle has to hold back a rush of killing fury, and she wants nothing more than to rend asunder those that have caused this anguish in Mirage. The emotion has her normally dim optics blazing brightly behind her visor for long moments before the fire is banished under the impact of Mirage's words.
Any revenge can wait, here and now is much more important. But she won't be forgetting.
She returns the kiss as it is given, reveling in the life, the expression of emotion as well as the fact of it, then assists him in finding a position in her arms that is comfortable for both of them without wheels or wings getting in the way or being pinched. Oracle settles back on her heels slightly at the same time, and brings one hand up to stroke the side of Mirage's helm. "You make me wish sometimes as well." She sounds a bit wistful, and continues a bit quieter. "Would that I could Mirage."

As he settles more solidly into her arms, Mirage murmurs, "It is enough."
He starts to shake again, small tremors as the sobs he'd choked back when Sentinel interrupted earlier prove determined. It will be some time before he regains his composure. Hopefully, Oracle had no plans for the rest of the day.
and fade
