Day 64: Intercom, Evening

[damned_intercom]

When the cheery jingle sounded over the speakers, the Head Doctor could be heard humming a song that suspiciously sounded like pieces of "Superstar" from today's movie. Then, as if realizing people were listening, he abruptly cleared his throat.

"Good evening, patients!" he greeted after a quick recovery. "I do hope everyone had a pleasant day. And what better way to end things than with a scrumptious steak dinner? We'll be including fries on the side, as well as offering our usual assortment of water, milk, and juices. Of course, we also carry vegetarian options for those of you who don't eat meat. Enjoy!"

The intercom turned off, leaving the nurses to escort patients to their rooms.

How, indeed. Maya took a moment to think. "Minimal taunting today, I suppose?" That, or she'd become used to Intercom Man. Or she had simply not heard about...half? the announcements today. No matter; she'd be up to hear the customary one before the doors unlocked. If there was one thing about him Maya could discern, it was his love of his own voice.

He could drop pretenses and be his own malicious self at those times, Maya supposed. Bothersome man.

More importantly... "Did you see the bodies at the entrance?" Maya could have stayed to poke around, but she'd been in too much a hurry to leave that room. "I wonder if something had gone wrong."
