What he had not expected was the joy the men took in his presence, their faith in his skills, and their evident, eager desire that he should remain with them. He had felt something similar with Jack already, when he had gone so abruptly from the miserably lonely state of not having a friend in the world to confide in, to becoming the close companion of a man who himself desperately needed a friend and confidant.

It was the best of times for Stephen that he met Jack and the Sophies. :D Otherwise he might have been close to suicide. Thank you for giving the Sophies their voices to express what they feel about the doctor.

Again, impeccable O'Brian
