If he could, he'd lift his arm right now and pet her head in a comforting gesture. He'd probably still try it, if he didn't know that she'd disapprove of it, so he can only respond weakly, and with words. He can feel her fingers, and that's enough.

"I'm glad."

He wishes she would talk more instead. He's not the best when it comes to that, but he's not the one that needs comforting now.

"You did your best. Things like these just happen. I've always known that, so don't worry so much. I'm sure I'd be in worse condition now if it weren't for you. Dead, maybe."

It was the right decision of her to call the ambulance, too, even if he hadn't wanted it at the time. She did all the right things, while he made nothing but mistakes. Chasing the remnants, and attacking them in the first place. Underestimating them like that.

And maybe, he thinks, maybe I am not fit for making these decisions after all.

It was only him this time, but there would always be a next time.

He feels about ready to fall asleep again. Jack guesses that he sleeps at least at least 12 hours a night instead of the usual 4; he'd overheard a nurse saying that getting more sleep would be good for him, that he's too stressed, and that that's another reason for keeping him there for a while. Thankfully, it was a dreamless sleep.

"You should go home and catch up on sleep."

He remembers. He'd left something for her.
