Night 51: Intercom, Beginning of Night
Crackling came on over the intercom as soon as darkness descended upon Landel's Institute. Tonight seemed relatively clear; the moon shined at three quarters and the wind was present, but gentle. Had it not been for the other dangers that lurked in the shadows, the scenery might have even seemed pleasant.
But the ominous screeching and chattering of the intercom was enough to put anyone on edge, as was the Head Doctor's chuckle as he began his more sincere announcement for the night.
"Let's hope our new Radio Man doesn't cause me to take the same measures I did last night, hmm? Or... should I call him radio boy? Still carving out a place for himself, that one, and let's only hope he doesn't end up like precious little Jill. Oh, Jill..."
Soft steps crossed a room; then, a rustle of fabric and a sharp intake of breath, far too fearful to be the Head Doctor's.
"...What are we ever going to do with you?"
The intercom dwindled to silence. The doors unlocked.
[ If you're introducing your new character during the night, you may do so whenever you wish; if they don't have a room assignment yet, please have them wake up in a random, unoccupied room consistent with their gender (compare new assignments and permanent assignments to the Landel's map) and make your character's introduction post in response to the appropriate hallway post (you'll be able to find it at the nightly links listing or in one of the recent posts to the comm). However, when you do post, please reply to this intercom post with a link to the introduction for organization's sake. ]
