But something happened to him, something he wouldn’t tell me. He was binge-drinking in the Inmate showers, and I went there thinking we were just going to have a stupid brawl or something. But all he wanted was for me to beat on him while he stood there. So after the third punch, I stopped and tried to talk to him a bit. He wouldn’t tell me what was wrong, though, so in the end, I just helped him get down to Adrian’s cabin.

[ Which he sends so Lark has some context. ]

[And then, more professionally] Thanks. I'll catch up with him. How drunk was he when you found him?

[ A beat. ]
I would have healed him, but I don’t think he wanted me to.

All right, thank you. If you notice anything else... Just give me a heads up.
