Day 36: Intercom, Evening
The intercom's jingle rang out and the somewhat uninhibited movement that was going on between the main activity rooms halted as the Head Doctor made one of his usual announcements.
"Good evening everyone, and I'm very pleased to see so many of you in such high spirits after meeting with your loved ones! However, like with all good things, it can't last forever, so I ask now for nurses to escort our patients in the waiting rooms and in the main areas back to their rooms, where they will be treated with a special Sunday... steak! That's right: today, we'll be serving juicy, delicious steak with fries and cooked vegetables on the side – simple enough for everyone to like and good enough for everyone to thoroughly enjoy! (Our patients with specialized diets will receive their alternate meals, of course.) Our usual beverages are available, and for dessert, we'll be serving warm slices of apple pie.
"After all, patients, t's always wonderful to see all of you cooperating with the staff even when given so much freedom, so I'd like to personally thank and congratulate all of you for helping us, your family, and more importantly, yourselves. Hopefully, we can help you to a speedy recovery so that you can see your loved ones more often, but first... dinner! I hope to speak with you all again soon."
The intercom clicked off.
[ All room threads go in response to this post; please post your character's room number as the subject line of the initial post. Thank you!
On an added note, just wanted to clarify to players of characters who are canonly vegetarians and the like that you get to decide (within reasonable and realistic limits) what kind of diet your character gets from the staff. :3 ]

Re: F33
She looked over. "What's a possibility of what?" Maybe Maki had a decent train of thought going.
Re: F33
"This place..." Naomi started, leaning back as she worked out the thought properly. "The one common theme in everything they do seems to be to keep us unbalanced, weaken us mentally and emotionally as well as physically, to break us down to whatever it is they want to do to us. And maybe that's how choose people to take. Maybe it doesn't all have to do with our...lives, or who we are, or what we can do. Since there's no common theme, not even a good enough theme within smaller groups. Maybe it's all just to keep us confused and off balance during the day, since they're trying to keep up the semblance of a normal mental institute. What if there are the people they really want, and the rest are just to screw with us?"
It sounded insane, in a way, but insanely rational.
That was the thing about sociopaths. They were painfully logical, in their own way.
Re: F33
"The question to follow that, then, is who are the ones they really want?"
Re: F33
"I'd guess the best and the brightest. Or hell, maybe they do want the people who aren't anything special. Maybe we're...weaker, or something. To their brainwashing. It could go either way."
Without the proper data, there just wasn't any way to put it all together.
Re: F33
Beatrix didn't think it was the best and brightest they wanted, nor did she think it was anyone ordinary. There wasn't a need to go to such lengths to get someone ordinary but she wasn't sure about the other side.
"Perhaps it's not either face of the coin they wish, but the edge both balance on." She paused for a moment. "I had a visitor today."
Re: F33
"Oh? Who was it?"
Re: F33
"Elle Driver - an old colleague." She sighed. "I should have killed the fucking bitch when I had the chance." It had just seemed so fitting to pluck her eye out and leave her lying in that trailer. Apparently that had been a mistake.
