Day 66: Breakfast
What Guy had seen on that scan resulted in some mixed feelings. While he had expected to find something in Claude, seeing how he was sick, it hadn't been quite the same as what they'd seen when they had scanned that other ill patient two nights ago. What did that mean? It was possible that the shape of it just looked different because of where it was in Claude's stomach, but Guy couldn't help but feel that there was a deeper meaning to it.
Yet another thing that he didn't understand, then. With a sigh, he got himself up out of bed and went searching immediately for the single leaf that he'd taken from the X-ray room last night. It was stored carefully in his possessions box, which meant that he didn't have to worry too much about that.
While he wanted to quickly sketch the leaf's general shape to post on the bulletin, Guy wasn't given that chance, as his nurse showed up before he could even grab for his journal. He had to relent and let her lead him to the cafeteria for breakfast. While Guy considered stopping by the bulletin to leave a note, that could wait until after he ate. He suspected that Anise or Luke would try to find him as soon as possible to tell him about their findings, so leaving a note for them would be redundant.
He did need to ask about the clue from last night and see if anyone else had further insight on it, but that might be something Claude wanted to do, seeing how he had a better idea of who that baptist was and what it all might signify.
After collecting a small amount of food onto a plate, Guy took a seat near the cafeteria's entrance, keeping an eye out for any of his friends so he could flag them down as they walked in.
[For Anise and Claude.]

"I have never seen you before." And the boy had the disoriented look about him. Although Scar was never one to intentionally reach out to others, if a kid sat across from him, he wasn't going to ignore. It was sick, all the young people that showed up here. That was what bothered him the most about this hell, really.
"The nurses tell you lies. Do not listen to them, but do not retaliate against them. They are more powerful than any one of us. When night falls... there are monsters in the halls."
That was it, in a nutshell. Scar waited for the inevitable further questions.

For instance, Ryusei wouldn't know if the lying nurses thing was something generally accepted by the patient body or if it was something particular to this one guy. Ryusei should have expected it, though. Well, this conversation's a bust. He quickly looked down so his face didn't betray him, and stuffed some food into his mouth so it didn't look like he was deliberating over how to respond.
When he looked up, the uncertain smile was back. "Is that so...?" Would asking what kind of monsters provoke the guy? Ryusei didn't want to chance it, so he changed the subject. "Thank you for telling me. Uh, about these uniforms...."

It was honestly making Scar slightly suspicious.
"The clothing is ridiculous, yes. Some have mentioned finding their own clothes in their closets. If that happens, you can wear them at night." He took another bite of his breakfast. It was surprisingly good.
no subject
"That's weird. Is it a tradition?" Oh, another thing. "Does that mean you didn't find yours?"
No, that was weird, too. But everything so far had been weird. Windows-weird, even. Oh, he should ask about that, too. The scary man didn't seem to be getting annoyed.
no subject
"And no, I have not found my own clothing, yet." Scar didn't particularly care, either way.

Maybe the guy was new, too; Ryusei had no way of knowing. Alternatively, he'd been here so long he'd forgotten, which explained why he would know a newcomer just by looking. Ryusei couldn't bank on the latter option, though, and even if the hospital wasn't dangerous in the sense that a prison was dangerous (Ryusei assumed), he still didn't want to be attracting unwanted attention. He just wanted to straighten out this mistake and get out as soon as possible, but, frustratingly, he didn't know how much time it would take—that had been one of things the nurse hadn't told him. So he had to ask. "And how long do people usually stay here...?"

..."You may call me Scar."
