A cold, delicate hand grabs yours and pulls. It pulls, and it pulls... there's a sense of urgency in this icy grasp, as well as a trace of reluctance. Abruptly the hand let's go, right as your vision fades to black, and for a brief moment, only a brief moment, your senses disappear. There's only the eerie sensation of weightlessness before your feet are settled back on solid ground again.

She's getting it.

She's getting the liquid stepford.

[ oh god no no no no

TRIES... TO ROLL OUT OF BED... TO ESCAPE... ]

Nurse Echo grabs onto his shoulder with a firm hand.

"Naoto, please. Stop."

[ ok just curling up then ]

I don't want the shot. Don't. Please don't. I'll calm down, I promise, please don't—

She sighs and injects the needle into your arm. Unless you swat her away, of course.

[ a-attempts to swat it away but he's got bloodloss, painkillers and no depth perception, so how effective it is is... up to debate... ]

Yes, she will just grab his arm and inject him. There, there, dear.

[ ok well he will just curl up and start crying then

sounds... like a plan ]

Nurse Echo will wait it out.

"Are you feeling better yet, Naoto?"

[ NO IT HURTS TO CRY AND I'M CRYING MORE BECAUSE IT HURTS ]

[ eventually just kind of running out of crying stamina though

s-sniffles ]

There's a pause.

And eventually the nurse is petting your hair.

[ just lies there ._ ]

"Naoto. Naoto, please speak. Do something. I am studying you, this is not helping."

[ NO I GIVE UP I'M DONE ]

...

The nurse sighs.

"I need to go. Take care."

And she darts out the door.

[ ev... eventually sort of trying to crawl out of bed

can I stand up

can I stand up??? ]

I don't know, can you? (You probably can, yes.)

Zwei's voice chimes in.

"Excuse me~ I come bearing a gift."

A dark hand springs from the shadows, holding... another hand. A bloody one.

[ .......................

]

You can BSOD in silence.

[ takes

the hand ]

you're welcome

Eventually Nurse Echo will return, but you can have a moment to yourself before she does. You might need it.

[ yep just

staring at this hand

like, what is this thing i'm holding, why is it here ]

That sure is a hand.

[ That's not a hand. That can't possibly be a hand. Why on earth would he be holding a severed hand. Clearly he's not holding a severed hand. Kanzaki Naoto is not holding a severed hand, the thing he's holding is just ____________________________ someone else must be holding a severed hand this must be a bad dream this must be a horrible memory none of this is happening ]

Echo's happiness bear squirms. Why am I in your pocket, bro.

"N... Naoto! Naoto!!"
