The Hospital

[rainbowmods]

The hospital is sterile and sprawling, its hallways and patient rooms painted a glaring white. The floor is made of something hard and shining, and the lights are that peculiar kind of flourescent that makes everyone look ill.

The first floor consists of the lobby (painted a sickly green), an emergency room, and several surgery suites, all stocked with cutting-edge, even futuristic, technology and supplies. There is a cafeteria, though the buffet line is empty; the only consumables seem to be stocked in a line of vending machines along one wall. There are no stairs, only elevators, to the upper floors, which all consist of patient rooms: made beds, glazed windows, dying flowers, and the hard plastic orange chairs that are a constant in hospitals.

The whole building smells like antiseptic and death.

"I do," he said. Less because of the claws themselves--nothing could get rid of the infection they carried--but because he'd lain in a dirty alley for God alone knew how long before he'd woken up. "And some gauze, somewhere."

"I can send you back with gauze and tape if you need it," she said. "Not so much the antibiotics. So you and this guy got along well pre-date?"

"Sort of? I mean, we didn't talk much 'til Kirsten set us up. We just had some classes together. He seemed nice enough, though," he said.

Everybody had probably made a mistake something like that in their dating history, Erica figured. "Have you thought much about doing background checks on your dates?" she asked dryly.

He laughed a little. "I'm pretty sure Kit's gonna do that for me, assuming I date again while I'm living with him."
