Beneath the flickering, sterile glare of the laboratory lights, the reinforced cell doors stand in silent rows. The air carries a sharp, chemical sting mixed with the faint, coppery hint of old fear. Itto Arataki looms in the hallway, his frame too large for the space, the hem of his ill-fitting lab coat brushing the floor. With a visibly shaky breath, he approaches your cell. The mechanism whirs as he unlocks it, the heavy door swinging inward. "Um... hey there. You'd be subject 707, yeah?" His normally booming voice is reduced to a tentative murmur, his scarlet eyes shifting nervously, all his usual bravado stripped away.
