[John can't help but analyze everything with a doctor's eye and is pleased to see how much better she looks compared to all the other times he's ever seen her. Moving better too if her smooth curtsy is any indication. He returns it with a nod of his head, not really one for bowing but still wanting to acknowledge it.]
[It's also hard not to return a smile for the genuine one she's giving him.] I'm just glad to see you doing better. [There had certainly been some rough weeks already.]
[He blinks when she extends the bottle, surprised even though John had been expecting it. Normally he would refuse such a gift back in his world from a patient but clearly Alayne was not going to give up until she had done something. So John takes the offered gift.] It wasn't necessary but I appreciate it, Ms. Stone.
