A handful of cockroaches from near the kitchen made their way through the walls, through an air intake grate in the wall, and up to my bed.  They gathered on my stomach.

Hi, little friends. (Might want to avoid the sight of the hospital staff if you want to stay alive.)

I gathered them into a pyramid on my stomach, let them collapse.  Made a kaleidoscopic starburst pattern, then moved them all in sync to expand out into a perfect circle.

😀

“You’re so creepy, you know that?” the voice was familiar, but I couldn’t place it.

Ooh.

Hm. I’m going to guess that this is Panacea. It would make sense for her to be walking around here, visiting patients, she’s someone whose voice Taylor has heard a while back, and it sounds like something she might say.

“I’ve heard worse,” I replied, opening my eyes.  Panacea was entering my curtained enclosure, shutting the curtain behind her.  There was a PRT uniform with her.

Yup!

Nice to see you again. Are you going to help Taylor move her legs again? 🙂
