The look in Steve's eyes may be the only confirmation the doctor needs. Beyond the razor-sharp focus and careful concentration, his eyes always look a little haunted.

"Grape," is all he says, straightening up. He may tower over Leonard, but he's got a friendly face (when he isn't frowning). "Cherry reminds me too much of bad medicine."
He supposes that wasn't so bad. No blood samples, no endurance machines, no endless questioning. It does make him wonder if Steph was put through worse, though.
