Day 40: Lunch

*hobble wobble*

"Damn that SCOURGE!" Starscream cried out, the slowly-filling cafeteria producing a jarring echo of his raspy voice. His limping, already bad enough from not knowing how to properly use his crutches, was now exacerbated from the injuries he'd received the shift prior. Despite the gauges in his non-casted leg so lovingly provided by the aforementioned 'patient', Starscream could still put some weight on it, but not so much that he could really stop and rest; relieving the soreness under his arms was out of the question. The nurse that walked behind him with his tray, already upset at having to deal with yet another troublesome inmate, was growing rather impatient as his charge slowly made his way down the food line.

"Just...give me a standard serving of the aquatic creature's flesh, some of those fried potato slices, two bananas, and three bottles of juice," Starscream sighed, his anger from just a moment ago assuaged by the physical exertion needed to move the way he did. "I'm going to sit down here...bring it to me when you're done."

He was hardly surprised to find that one of the bananas was completely bruised along its inner curve, or that the handful of 'chips' on his plate were all on the small side. Tired and frustrated as he was, however, he could barely muster a 'damned flesh-creature' before moving his fingers to the plate, picking one of the longer 'chips' and shoving it into his mouth listlessly.

There was an unusually high concentration of sodium chloride crystals on it. Of COURSE.

Monsters? Well, of all the things to be asked, this was one that Kio was certainly not expecting. He thought back to the first night he'd woken up, when he'd still thought he was in Japan, in Sou-chan's school. How long ago all that seemed now. Well, there hadn't been any monster, but he did recall a fight between patients. The next night had seemed the shortest ever, but Demyx...yes... rats and Demyx manipulating water. Then that patient who had been brainwashed and had attacked him and Ritsuka for the files, although that had not been nearly as strange as the creature running through the main corridor.

Kio looked at the man. Was it worth sharing the information? For all he knew, this man had seen every corner of the Institute in the short time he'd been there. But Kio was nothing if not helpful and this guy didn't seem pretty happy. Maybe if Kio told him enough he could get the man to smile.

"I'm not sure how helpful I can be, but I have seen a few. Nothing like the stuff on the Bulletin, with little girls and all that. I just saw rats the size of dogs and a mutated monster thing running through the main hall two nights ago. Someone was chasing it and shouting for everyone to stay back or they'll become infected." Kio shrugged. He was still feeling fine, maybe the infection only targeted certain people? "What have you seen so far?"
