Day 75: DAWN, MORNING, NOON, AND AFTERNOON

As the day started, the weather only seemed to be improving, and some patients might even call it warm. Granted, the climate control in the building meant it wouldn't make a difference until someone chose to venture outside.

For now, though, it was time for breakfast, and the intercom came on to wake up all of the patients from their enforced slumber.

"Breakfast sandwiches... how could you not look forward to something like that, dear patients?" Even as Landel spoke, the nurses started peeking into rooms and rousing people from their beds.

"There's plenty to look forward to today, from the recreational field to the greenhouse. I hope that you all enjoy your days and your lunches."

As usual, lunch would be handed out in a paper bag, offering some fruit and vegetables to snack on, along with a sandwich as the main course and pudding for dessert.

"That's all for now!" Though the Head Doctor would be announcing the different shift changes throughout the day, as usual.

Mingle log guidelines:

1. All Day Shift 75 threads will take place in the comments to this post.
2. PROSE!
3. Tag under the proper time of day for the thread. You do not have to stick to one thread per shift, as long as you don't try to do a large total number of threads (4 or less is best, but a fifth won't get you in trouble).
4. Subject line of your opening tag: Location (required), shift (optional), OPEN (if appropriate). Putting "OPEN" in the subject line should make it easier for other players to find open threads, and the nature of this log means that you should be able to pick up an open thread that interests you even if you already have something scheduled for that shift. Threads which are not open can be marked the way they always are, with the names of the other characters in small text after the opening post.
5. Each thread should have its own separate starter, just like on any other DS. The format of threads is not changing, only the format of the log post itself, and the fact that you don't have to strictly stick to one thread per shift.

"I have no idea what you're talking about!" the first guard yelled as he took a few steps back, rubbing at his bruised neck.

The other two seemed focused purely on keeping the patient in place, and that was because a nurse was already on her way over with a sedative prepared. It was already clear that Mr. Matthews wasn't going to calm down on his own, and so some kind of action had to be taken.

"They've already been moved away from the institute. I'm sorry, sir, but there's no way for you to see them," the orderly added.

The words may as well have fallen on deaf ears. Scar was already beyond listening, or any type of rational reasoning at all. Nobody ever got through to the orderlies. It didn't matter how they were threatened or attacked, they would never be separated from the ruse.

But there was nothing else Scar could do.

He slammed his fist against the wall, in between glaring at the first man he had approached and wrestling the others off. It was enough to badly bruise, but the pain didn't register. It would do him no good, he knew in his mind, attacking someone who could be hiding information from him.

"Liar. You did something to them!" Or something happened to them last night. But Scar wasn't ready to face that possibility, not when he could blame the inarguable enemy.

"All we did was allow them to return to their families, Mr. Matthews!" the orderly insisted with a heavy sigh as he leaned back against the nearest table, his hand still over the bruising on his neck.

Finally, the nurse swept in from the side, her syringe already prepared. The two who were restraining Scar clamped their grips tighter on him, holding him in place long enough that the nurse could prick him with the needle and push the sedative into his bloodstream.

"Sorry about this," she said, "but we can't allow you to cause any more harm."

"Like hell you did!" But Scar couldn't manage any words after that. He had just been about to lunge at the orderly rubbing his bruised neck when he felt the sharp pinch of the needle and the dizziness that came with it. The injection quickly did as it was supposed to, and Scar faltered before he collapsed, out cold.

The sedative was a particularly strong one, but even the orderlies were surprised when the patient lost consciousness, struggling to take hold of him and see to it that he didn't harm himself by hitting the floor too hard.

It had been handled, though, and they would set him out somewhere until he woke up. Even then, he'd still be under the effects of the drug, which would hopefully force him to think twice before attacking one of the staff.
