Day 62: Sun Room (Second Shift)

The line of questioning that Rita had begun at breakfast still plagued Loki, as did his own uncomfortable feelings about the entire concept of people being transformed into monsters. It wasn't a useful line of thought, and he needed a better direction to consider.

Hopefully, conversation with Soma would provide that. While she seemed quite stern at times, Loki found her presence oddly relaxing.

Though he had to wonder if perhaps he wouldn't end up seeing her this shift after all, since she might be included in the group that was being herded to the showers. (As much as the statement also was one he greeted with relief, since he was wondering when he'd get an opportunity to bathe. The thought of being trapped in a building with a great many mortals and no bathing facilities had been too horrifying to contemplate.) He'd always been a bit bad at guessing the ages of mortals, mostly because they were so ridiculously short-lived.

Having already established a neurotic fear of the cold with his nurse, there was no difficulty convincing her that he'd be much better off in the Sun Room. Loki settled into his habitual seat, taking a moment to coax one of the cats into his lap. All settled in, he propped his notebook on the arm of the chair and went back to writing.

"So he likes experimentation. That shouldn't surprise me." Not for this sort of scenario. If you weren't going to train and utilize monsters what else did you do with them but torture and experiment? In some sick, twisted, way it made sense.

It made him wonder if he'd go back to normal at night, if his powers and abilities would be returned to the way they should be. Part of him rationalized that you couldn't have accurate results when testing monsters otherwise, but the more sick part of him figured 'why risk it?' If you had monsters where you wanted them, you didn't give them a chance to escape.

He turned his attention back to the woman and gave her one of his more charming smiles. "If you don't mind my asking, my lady~ What species are you?" Maybe if he could figure out what kind of creatures they were keeping here he'd have a better feel for the place in general.
