One would think, that after all the things Ling Yao had seen in the last several weeks, he'd be used to a surprise or two. The fact that he was now sitting up in what looked to be a hospital bed, after he'd sworn he was just swallowed alive, proved that he could still absolutely be surprised.
Now, he knew that the bottomless, misbegotten vacuum known as Gluttony had to do something with all that garbage he ate. He wasn't so sure, however, that it was supposed to end up in a ...hospital?
Ling quickly glanced around and crawled out of bed. The room he was in was empty and completely white, save for himself and a few items. All at once he noticed his mess of hair out of its tie, stringing all over his face, and his sudden change in apparel. The prince looked down in disgust at his clothes and decided to throw off his shirt.
From there, Ling tore the room up, looking for anything from a hint of where he was, to something to hold his hair. He had luck in finding the drawer holding the pens. The rubber band that held them together was sufficient enough to pull his hair back. That done, he was resuming his investigation when his nurse walked in.
"Zhi!"
Ling stopped, turning towards the lady, and frowned. He noted her nursely attire before responding with a, "Bless you," and standing up.
That seemed to confirm his thoughts about the hospital. What was he doing here? Perhaps he'd never been eaten and he just passed out. Edward had dealt with the homunculi and dragged his ass to the hospital.
His nurse blinked at him before shaking her head. "No, Zhi, honey, that's your name. Zhi Chan, remember? Welcome to Landel's Institute. You're here to get better."
Ling blinked and gave her a slightly unnerving stare. "...Wha?" Then, he started to laugh. "No, I'm afraid you have me mixed up with someone else. My name is Ling Yao. Chan is of another clan."
The nurse just shook her head and said, "Everything's going to be okay now. Here, I'll take you to breakfast."
Ling started to protest until she said the magic words. "Breakfast?"
He grinned, okay. He could do that for now. Then, he'd find out what the hell was going on. He started to walk on out the door when the nurse stopped him and told him to put his shirt back on.
