Felix Caelus

The touch is difficult to even pay much attention to but Jim nods softly before he leads them through the Enterprise-A to where Stratos' brother is being kept. Stratos still has to work harder to keep his boots from sounding on the hard floors. Keep himself hidden from sight in these brightly lit corridors. Casting is still as difficult here as it ever was.

Jim makes no comment as he holds the door of the turbolift open once he's stepped inside until Stratos touches his arm again.

"Hold on." A soft murmur before they descend deeper into the heart of the ship--his ship. It's a thought that usually brings Jim comfort but right now all he cares about is seeing his husband again. If Stratos says anything while the lift drops Jim makes no mention of it.

The barebones staff in Medical is expecting Jim when he finally strides through the door. One of the nurses gestures toward a bed set up in the back near Dr. McCoy's office. It makes Jim exhale sharply through his nose in not quite a snort. Usually the spot reserved for himself when he does something stupid and Leonard wants to hover nearby. It works out in their favor all the same.

"I'd like a minute alone with him."

"Just try to be quick, Captain. He needs to rest..." A token effort but they know they won't dissuade him now. Best to go alert Dr. McCoy that Jim's come and let him have his time with his husband.

"Come on. Over here." Jim keeps his murmur quiet as he leads Stratos over to where Felix is laying. He makes himself turn to draw the thin privacy curtains around the bed before he sighs heavily. "Alright, we should be good." He glances down at his husband, unsure if Felix is even awake after he's been so sedated. "...How're you doing, Felix?"
