Night 65: Disciplinary Therapy Room 1
What made someone extraordinary? It was a question that the institute worked to answer every day, and while the primary method was by doing the obvious in studying extraordinary people, there always had to be a point of comparison. It was the reasoning behind those patients who really didn't have much to them, who didn't stand out in any quantifiable way.
Ryuugamine Mikado was one such example. By most accounts, he was a completely normal boy -- his only real achievement was the creation of an internet gang. In fact, that most interesting thing about him was his strange name. They had taken even that away from him here, seeing how the nurses called him Arisata Kenta.
But the doctor for today's experiment wasn't going to bother with anything like that. As it was, Mikado had been unconscious for the past few days, put under observation as they studied him for any anomalies and tried to decide what to do next. In the end, the most interesting thing they could do with a normal person was somehow change that, and that was simple enough with the tools left to them.
All things considered, for a regular civilian Mikado had handled himself in the institute rather well. And what they had planned for him tonight wouldn't necessarily make his life here any easier. He wasn't going to get some sort of magic offensive ability, or even added strength. Still, it would be enough to point out both his own change and the oddness of others.
Ryuugamine Mikado wouldn't be able to straddle the line between a boring life and an exciting one after this.
The boy was strapped down to the table, and for now the doctor was keeping all the necessary tools for tonight's surgery a secret, placed on a cart that was off to the side, out of view. He'd need to do some explanatory work before he got started, after all.
