Hank settles in beside Lavan's bed, looking at the young man. It was amazing what weeks of bed rest and finding out someone he loved and cared for was really alive had done for Lavan. He shook his head but smiled. The boy was still not completely coherent all the time, but...
Truthfully, Hank had no legal right to keep him, and no skill to treat his mental troubles. It would be better to let the kid go, and watch him, and pass his name on to one of the doctors who did have the skills necessary to help him. And maybe to Security as well. Just in case...
In any case, he looked up from the small scanner he held and nodded to Lavan.
"How are you feeling?"
