'Course it hadn't ended well, so Bush doesn't simply walk to inspect Kennedy instead he runs - crossing the space of the room in few long steps. His hand dips under the unconscious man's shoulder and he tries to Very Carefully turn the man upright against the legs of a chair and he does well to check the volume of his voice as he attempts to wake the man (if he could be) with his name. He doesn't know who else is home, but he thinks of how Wellard or Hornblower would take to seeing Archie as he is and thinks better of it.
