Day 50: Intercom, Evening

[damned-intercom.livejournal.com]

As expected, after the allotted amount of time had passed, the nurses started to move through the waiting rooms to inform the visitors that it was time for them to leave, whereas in the Sun Room King Kong was turned off and the staff quickly sprung to action to put the equipment away.

Meanwhile, the sound of intercom turning on cut into the hustle and bustle, but it was Lydia's voice which came through. "Mr. Landel is taking a quick nap," was all she said by way of explanation, as she seemed to be beyond making lengthy excuses for the man. "Nurses, once the visitors have said their goodbyes, escort the patients back to their rooms for dinner. Tonight there is steak and fries on the menu, with a slice of cheesecake for dessert and vegetarian options if requested.

"Enjoy your food and have a good sleep." Keeping it short, the intercom then turned off.

It became quickly apparent that Agatha was far more interested in her work than in whatever Ema had to say. She might have considered being offended at the rebuff if she didn't understand the allure of science herself. Agatha hummed while she worked, which was actually kind of nice to listen to, so Ema took that as her cue to disengage.

Figuring that Agatha would ask her for help if she needed it, Ema went back over to her bed and her food. Something peeking out from under her pillow caught her attention. Realizing with more than a little agitation that it had probably escaped her notice before her vision was improved, Ema reached over and grabbed it.

Shiny new flashlight. Well, what do you know.

At least she wouldn't be wandering around in the dark anymore.
