Day 69: Breakfast

[envy_the_sinners]

Scar scowled, both relieved and angry that he had woken up once again in his own bed. That lanky man who had become his new roommate on the night of his death was sound asleep one bed over.

This was coming to be the new "normal." It was infuriating.

As always, he begrudgingly followed his nurse into the cafeteria and took a seat. He preferred to file in with the majority of the patients in order to avoid sticking out, but no such luck this morning.

Scar stared at his food rather than starting in on it, despite the newly found appetite that had been lost thanks to that blasted sickness. He had a lot to think about. He hadn't managed to find Frank last night. The damn intercom had beaten him to it. And judging by Tsubaki's reaction to him, he had been out for at least a day's time. How many had noticed? Cared? It couldn't have been many.

But it was the few who did whose detection Scar was desperate to avoid.

[Eddyyyy!]

"It seems to have passed."

But still she frowned. "Did they give you anything last night? A shot or pills or anything like that?" Lust knew that when drugs were administered, effects lasted into the day. It wasn't very common, but it was the only thing she could think to explain what had just happened!

Al shook his head. "Not the staff, but that hair was just like what the monster grabbed me with."

He takes a long drink of his juice, still not sure he wanted to eat anything more. "I just hope that's all of whatever it got inside of me..."

"The creature from last night?" A deeper frown. "Effects like that usually don't last into the day...."

Usually. But was there any sort of standard one could hold this place to? Lust doubted that, upon consideration.

"Are you sure you're alright?"

Al shook his head. "I feel alright, but I felt alright when I woke up. That obviously doesn't mean anything right now."
