"What, you think the dead always stay dead?" Howard sort of wishes they would, even if that means he wouldn't have met Rory. His concepts of death have been wildly rocked since he locked a zombie in his basement, and somehow he misses the comfort of thinking that death just means stopping.
Besides, he told Rory he wouldn't tell anyone about all that Roman stuff. "Anyway, it's a long story. But nobody ever told me death is fun. Oh, here we are."
When they reach the Med Bay Howard's steps lighten a little. Everything in his body language expresses how much more comfortable he is here than most places. His smile is even genuine, instead of a semi-sarcastic smirk. He dumps his backpack at his desk and starts up the coffee pot in the corner.
He gestures and moves things around his desk as he babbles. "So, anyway, this is the Med Bay. We don't have ambulances or medical brooms or whatever your place's equivalent might be, but some of our medics can move pretty fast, so we can get you pretty immediate care if you page us over the comms. And yeah, dinosaurs are totally not fun. Do not trust Land Before Time. It's a bunch of lies."
