Day 25: Intercom, Evening

The intercom clicked on with its usual jingle, the Head Doctor's voice carrying with a bit more authoritative ease than it had earlier.

"Good evening, patients, and I'm pleased to announce that we've finally finished organizing when our new batch of patients will be introduced, and unfortunately, it'll have to be tonight while you're all in bed. Truly sad, that, as I'm sure all of you are eager to see our new faces as soon as possible!

"In any case, the dinner that will be brought to you tonight will be herb-marinated pork roast with buttery corn-on-the-cob and fluffy mashed potatoes. Of course, we have our usual vegetarian salad available to those who request it, along with our regular assortment of drinks."

He paused and sighed. After all, it had been a long day.

"Oh, of course--Some of you may be unhappy to hear that Dr. Crane and Dr. Jiyani will no longer be serving us here at Landel's Institute. For those of you who were scheduled to have sessions with them, we'll be providing a substitute group therapy session in upcoming days. More details on that tomorrow.

"I believe that's all for now. Enjoy your dinner!"

The intercom clicked off.

[ As always, post to this entry with separate threads for each set of roommates. Thanks! ]

Just a little bit longer. Just one more meal before River would receive the beating she so rightfully deserved, if not the death. The latter was something that Kadaj wasn't entirely sure about, especially after how much backlash there had been after he'd attacked Elena, but what did people expect from something like this? If he did manage to defeat her-- which he would, of course, because last time had just been a fluke-- he was hardly going to become her best friend or something ridiculous like that. That wasn't how it worked, was it? No, he had other things in mind. Abject humiliation was one of them, but he'd settle for torturing her in full view of Elena, killing her, then doing the same to that stupid blonde. It would be even better if he could catch her little boyfriend in the process, as well as the Turk and the president, but he was willing to settle for less. For now.

Unfortunately, fantasizing about all of this did nothing to make nightshift come faster, so with a small sigh, he went to his desk and examined the food the nurse had left behind for him before starting to eat. It seemed like his roommate wasn't around just yet, and after the stunning conversation they'd had last time, he found it hard to be anything but pleased by this. Being called a psychopath by the blond boy was more than enough to turn Kadaj against him, but Uzumaki was still one of the lesser evils of the institute. As long as he didn't talk to much whenever he did show up, he'd stay that way.
