Bedside Manners
"Oh..." Louis says in surprise as the nature of Izzy's conversation with the nurse is made painfully clear. He averts his gaze out of mild embarrassment.

"Sorry, I really should've been able to put that together on my own. I know that kinda thing is incredibly personal. I'm just... glad you're okay." He says looking up into Izzy's eyes again with a soft smile. The hero leans further forward so that he can rests his elbows on the bed and offers a hand for Izzy to hold.

"It's kinda funny actually. I think finding you was the easiest part of the rescue? We hit the streets as soon as Scott called up Ryker looking for me. Two Rooks working under the guy responsible for your kidnapping were posted up at the coffee bar this morning. They were hoping that by kidnapping you they could get Scott to talk and give up Ryker in exchange. Fortunately for Scott we had an opening in our schedule today, so we made a special delivery to the bar. We got the guys to talk and they were pretty quick to tell us where they thought you were taken." An illusory panel materializes in the air just above Izzy's lap and animated images of the rescue mission play out in stylized comic book art across it's surface as Louis recounts his story, taking artistic liberties when necessary.
