Night 72: West Wing, North Hall 1-A
[From here.]
Despite the feeling of paranoia and worry that settled like a cold stone in the pit of his stomach, Lloyd pressed on through the next hall, only vaguely reassured when nothing jumped out to attack him.

Nah, when he saw you have that little fit last night, he figured you were too much of a risk to be around. I can tell he's very analytical about these things. He's not stupid y'know. Unlike you..."
Sechs refused to react to the drug's taunting, but its cruel suggestion was like a planted seed that instantly grew into a gnawing weed within his consciousness. The more Sechs brooded over it, the more his bitterness festered inside his chest. It was enough to get his blood pumping and his pace increasing in speed and volume. He was too mad to care if any monsters heard him...
