Day 60: Intercom, Evening

[damned_intercom]

The intercom jingled at its standard time, with the Head Doctor still in his over-the-top, jovial mood. It seemed not even the evening light could keep down the love he held for his job.

"Good evening, everyone! I hope your soul is filled with music from last shift; I know mine is

At the end of the shift, the intercom had announced dinner as Kurama's nurse appeared by his side, ready to lead him back to his room. It certainly did seem like he wouldn't go lacking in the food department while here, at least. The person on the bulletin board had certainly known what they were talking about.

Kurama didn't question where his nurse led him, but he noted with interest that they weren't heading to the room he'd woken up in. Was he being relocated then, perhaps into a room that a roommate was already occupying? He had to admit -- he really didn't have much knowledge on the procedures of insane asylums; for this was what this place seemed to be masquerading as, right, an insane asylum? It seemed like a proper conclusion to make, not that there was any doubt in him anymore that the real purpose of Landel's Institute was hardly the curing and caring for of mentally-ailing patients. There was something darker and stranger at work here. But as of yet, Kurama did know what that might be

The door inevitably opened to the sounds of a nurse and young boy arguing. A woman entered first with a tray, next came a boy that only came up to about the nurse's upper thigh and stared longingly at the plate just above his head.

"Did you give me extra?"

"We've had this discussion before, Billy, and do you remember what I said last time?"

There was a long pause as he tried to think that far back so he hazarded a guess. "... Yes?"

"No. You get the same amount as everyone else."

"But--!" His hands grabbed onto the woman's white skirt, pleading with her before they made it to his bed.

"No, buts! Sit and eat your meal. And mind your roommate." The woman felt a sliver of pity for the young man who had to tolerate Billy and his eccentricities. Once the boy jumped up and made himself comfortable on his bed, the nurse placed his food in front of him before exiting.

Goku didn't bother with greetings until he had most of his meal shoved down his gullet. Even still, he didn't wait until his mouth was empty to ask. "Wuh yuhhr nmmm

[TOTALLY LATE ON MY END, so drop if you like! Sorry about that! Holidays and RL business got to me. D: ]Ah. His roommate was a child. Hard to tell what age he really was, since, in comparison, he was a good deal smaller than his nurse. And, judging by the conversation the two were having as they entered the room, he really seemed rather young and unassuming. What was a child doing in a place such as this? From what he'd heard of this place from the bulletin board, this was hardly the sort of setting to bring children into. But either way

How was the food? Goku looked down at his plate of turkey, gravy covering half of his face already. His first reaction was to say "Great!" But then he had to take that back immediately.

"Well... it's better. I mean, it used ta be awful! But now it's... well, it has taste, sorta. But..." His yammering fizzled out momentarily as he half-heartedly moved the food around the plate. "They don't give me enough meat. Look at this!" Spearing a piece of sliced turkey, Goku held it up for Shuuichi to get a good look.

"What is it? Nothin' I ever hunted." It tasted like bird, sure, but not the kinds that roamed his jungle. Eventually his black eyes turned from his plate and landed on his roommate's. "Are you not gonna eat yours?" Because if he wasn't, Goku was going to inhale it too.
