Jason moves, helping Barry to sit up as much as he can. He understands about not wanting to take news lying down. Then he perches on the side of the bed, taking hold of Barry's hand again.
"You're still you. There might be a couple of changes, but you're still the same person that you always were." He's been around enough newly turned vampires to know that that's the truth, after all. So even if Barry had turned, it wouldn't change things. "We're not certain what happened yet. Caitlin, Cisco and Harry were still running tests last I knew. I'm just here for moral support and to look pretty."
The self-deprecating smile doesn't exactly get to his eyes. And his eyes are where the worry is showing. "As for the vampire who attacked you, I don't know. Anita and Jean-Claude are out looking for them. I think your dad may be with them, but more for the fact that neither Anita or Jean-Claude know the city well." Or at all. It's a job that, normally, Jason would have taken. But staying with Barry had trumped 'normally'. "If anybody can find them, it's those two. And they'll keep your dad safe."
