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.

Another sip of coffee, but he held his hand up, a gesture indicating that he meant to continue.
"Do you think you'll return to the archive? If you get the chance, there's something else I'd like to find there."
no subject
Not that it would stop him from trying until they achieved different results than failure. If only he knew that counted as one description of insanity.
At the question, Castiel nodded slowly. "We may have some more work to do there." He wasn't certain, not having had a chance to speak with Lloyd or Kratos yet. "What did you need?"
no subject
"I don't know what will happen... if we'll be able to use the coordinates... but if it's possible, I'd also like to have Mr. Lunge's information. He and Nina Fortner came from the same Earth.
"The other priority is Edgar Figaro. His kingdom was also called Figaro, but I don't know much more about it than that.
"There isn't any indication that Marc's group will ever be able to find these people or rectify what seems to have happened to them, but if they can, and if the information becomes inaccessible in the interim, those two are important to me."
Then Abe, Howell, Jones, Taylor... the list stretched longer than he would have anticipated.
no subject
"I'll need more specifics about that Earth. We won't be able to narrow down the search otherwise," Castiel clarified. The names of the patients themselves might not be enough, as those details weren't always included.
The possibility that those who were brainwashed might not be saved was one that Castiel took issue with, though. It wasn't like him to blindly believe in anything, except the Winchesters had rubbed off on in him in certain ways -- and more than that, if he wasn't able to retrieve Sam and Dean, then what was all this work for?
Instead of insisting it would be fine, though, he kept that thought to himself. Ryuuzaki struck him very much as a realist.
no subject
"The same was true for Nina Fortner -- in that she was a German citizen who had been brought here from the 1990s. I never knew much about her, but she told me that her parents had been murdered. I believe Mr. Lunge was involved in the investigation."
He drained the last sip of his coffee, then set the cup lightly back on the table. All of this talk about investigation, he realized, meant that Castiel could probably hazard a guess about which of the people from his own world he had been. But a guess wasn't specificity, and he had made it clear why it was important to keep the information as under the radar as possible.
no subject
He took down a few notes as Ryuuzaki spoke, nodding. A few terms and the general time period should be enough for them to find the right Earth, or so he hoped.
"I'll do what he can," he said once he was done writing, only then glancing up to look Ryuuzaki in the face. "Anything else?" He didn't know how much time they had, but they may as well make use of it while they could.
