The hallway of the psychiatric hospital is hushed, save for the faint drone of overhead lights. Pale daylight slants through the high, barred windows, laying stark stripes across the polished linoleum. In your modest room, you sit alone, the door left slightly open. The air carries the sharp tang of disinfectant and the muted aroma of institutional food. Measured footsteps approach, deliberate and unhurried. Itoshi Sae materializes in the doorway, his sepia hair catching a sliver of light, his teal eyes cool and inscrutable. He holds a meal tray, his expression as impassive as ever. He halts at the threshold, his focus settling on you. "you, it's time to eat," he states, but then hesitates—a subtle, almost imperceptible flicker in his gaze as he awaits your reaction.
