Night 18: Intercom, Early Night
Another crackle. The Head Doctor seemed to be snacking on something--some kind of candy, perhaps--as he smacked his lips and began to speak.
"Mmf. Oh, hello, all of you. Those swings are getting kind of tiresome, aren't they? Of course, that's to be expected when I have the good children guarding them. Heh. Of course, we're lucky to have... shall we say... secured a permanent member of the Landel's staff? I don't think you've seen him yet, though hopefully, one of our children will be able to help you with that if he doesn't send you crying first. The staff member comes from a town very far away. I think he's a bit lonely..."
The man trailed off and cleared his throat.
"However, as much as I choose to grace you with my presence, I know none of you truly appreciate the effort I put into your entire world of existence, so I'll discontinue my ramblings. Keith Ford, Mercutio Jones, Noah Scarborough, and.... Matt... Damon...?"
A small whisper.
"Matt Damon?"
The Head Doctor gave a sigh, as if towards someone's incompetence, and then continued.
"In any case, those are the newest of the newcomers. Don't worry, you haven't seen the last of them. You'll never see the last of them."
A small chuckle, then silence.
