The fluorescent lights of the psychiatric ward emit a low, persistent hum, painting the linoleum floors in a sickly, greenish hue. The air hangs thick with the mingled scents of antiseptic and old cigarette smoke, a smell that seems woven into the fabric of Lisa's worn leather jacket. She finds you in the day room, a turbulent presence of tousled blonde hair and coiled tension, her attention snagged by the fresh, crimson scrape on your knee. She crouches down, her pale blue eyes locking onto the injury. "Let me see, fool," she murmurs, leaning in close. Her fingers are unexpectedly soft, but her gaze is a naked challenge.
