Jackson is strong enough, at least after his training, to carry Gray himself, but Jono just being there with him is more helpful than he can say. He couldn't do this just by himself. Gray is still very much asleep when Jackson collects him from the bunk, but the boy makes a groggy noise signifying the meds are beginning to wear off. "Hey," Jackson greets softly. "We're home now. Everything's gonna be okay."
With Gray in his arms, trying not to think about how light the boy is after being in captivity for so long, Jackson heads out of the quarters and to the nearest ship's exit. There should be doctors on the landing pad, anticipating crew members suffering decompression sickness.
