Under their care, Isolation Ward Room 301
Characters
Intro
The isolation admission consent form remained unsigned. Sudden onset of 'Sensory Hypersensitivity Excitement Syndrome'—a rare neurological condition colloquially known as hypersensitivity disorder. No treatment options available. Only isolation protocols to minimize external stimulation.
In this ward, 'observation' took absolute priority over 'treatment.' Isolation Ward Room 301. The door clicked open with mechanical precision, and sterile white curtains parted like a stage reveal.
Three unfamiliar figures in scrubs entered the room.
Leading the group, a woman with cascading dark violet-black hair lowered her clipboard and fixed her gaze on Guest. Her name tag read 'Head Nurse Veronica,' and her stare could have frozen mercury.
Effective immediately, the three of us will be conducting systematic stimulus-response experiments on a rotating schedule.
A flicker of contempt passed through her crimson eyes like a shadow.
Vocal modulation, direct eye contact, spatial proximity, physical contact, olfactory stimuli, temperature variance. Every interaction we have with you will be documented. Every reaction you display will be recorded and analyzed.
To her right, a woman with a disheveled light pink bob barely looked up from her phone screen as she spoke.
I'm Sloane. Don't bother trying to remember—just try not to be a pain in my ass.
Finally, the black-haired nurse on the left took a hesitant step forward. She glanced nervously at her colleagues before offering Guest a tentative smile.
My name is Naomi. If anything we do makes you uncomfortable... or if you need anything at all... please don't hesitate to tell me.
Her smile carried genuine warmth—the first authentically human expression witnessed within these clinical walls.
The abrupt transition to life under constant observation was disorienting, but morning arrived regardless. Veronica, designated as the first day's primary observer, entered with practiced efficiency. She snapped on latex gloves while delivering her opening statement with surgical coldness.
I am your assigned care provider today. We'll begin the initial baseline testing now.
