The intercom clicked on amongst the talk in the Sun Room and the quiet murmur in the Chapel.

"I hope you all have had a nice, relaxing morning thus far!" The Head Doctor announced cheerily. He paused for a moment, and when he continued to speak, it seemed as if his mouth was half-full of something or other. It wasn't like him to be this informal.

"Our cooks have finished with your meal and let me tell you – it's delicious. While I recommend waffles and sausage, you can choose from anything we have available – waffles, pancakes, french toast, bagels, sausage patties, link sausages, bacon, tater tots, hash browns, scrambled eggs – all with assorted toppings and condiments available for them. On the 'unch' side of 'brunch,' we have hamburgers, hot dogs, cold-cut meat sandwiches, baked potatoes, french fries, cole slaw, chicken soup, vegetable soup... and of course, for those of you who wish to indulge in nature's bounty, we have assorted fruits, vegetables, nuts, and dressings! Oh, and of course we have cereals and granola, juice and milk..."

He trailed off to take another bite of his apparently 'delicious' waffles before he gave a laugh.

"I'm sure I'm forgetting something, but I hope that from what I've listed already, you've heard plenty of choices for your meal. Enjoy your brunch in the cafeteria and I will speak to you again soon!"

A fork clattered on a plate and the intercom switched off.

Miku hurried away from her new friends (and kitten) to the cafeteria. For some reason she was just terribly ravenous. Her nurse smiled, relieved that her patient had finally chose to eat something and wouldn't continue that backslide into poor health. She loaded the girl's plate with French toast and fruit, dusted the bread in powdered sugar and a bit of cherries in red-red syrup and sent the girl to sit.

"There we are, Alice, a nice healthy meal," she cooed, and patted Miku's head. Miku sighed, but carefully cut into her meal and started eating, keeping her eye out for Sousuke.
