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 ]

Haku snorted softy at that, but while Artemis may have thought that he was being clever at dodging the question, Haku wasn't about to let it go.

"I need to know you'll be safe. I have to know that there isn't a chance I will hurt you. Please."

Apparently Artemis wasn't budging on this one. What Haku was suggesting was insane. How could he not go find him and at least attempt to undo the brainwashing? After all, he and Zabuza probably had the best chance of doing it correctly.

"Well, there's only one thing to do then," Artemis sighed heavily. "I'll simply have to find a method of reversing the brainwashing before they get to you."

Haku was about to respond when the intercom chimed in with the end of the day announcement.

Sighing, he turned back to Artemis and smiled. "It seems as though we have talked the night away again."

Artemis never thought he'd be happy to hear that announcement. He smiled back. "It seems that way..."

Haku leaned forward and pressed a hard kiss to his friend's mouth just before the night's version of the doctor chimed in.

"But we're not done," he said pulling back and winking.

And yet again, he was completely unprepared for this. As wonderful as the kiss was, and as speechless as it rendered him, that finishing sentence made him pale a little. He wouldn't be able to escape this...

"Could we please be done?" Artemis said, looking nervously at their door.

"Not with this conversation," Haku said, moving to get off the bed and return to his own. "But I'll keep to myself for now."

He knelt to slip one of the makeshift bags from his matress. "If you still need the tank, you might be able to stuff on in here," he offered, emptying the bag.
