Night 54: Radio Broadcast

Feb 16, 2011 23:19

The radios come on not too long after the night has started, interrupting patients who might have their own new problems to deal with. Not that the man making the broadcast knew what exactly was going on, but he certainly had a few guesses. The announcement didn't begin with his voice, but instead a song; the chorus continued to play over and over for a few rounds before it faded into the background, allowing the broadcaster's voice to come through.

Or so I'm hoping, anyway! These military guys are kind of tight-lipped, aren't they? But it sounds like a certain someone got the boot. Wonder where he is now...

While the man's tone sounded excited and there was definitely the hint of a smile in his voice, he also seemed nervous at the same time. In a way, that feeling echoed what most of the patients were experiencing as well.

Anyway, I'm not sure what to make of these guys yet. I did my best to listen in on their transmissions, but who would have figured that the military actually used a code that's hard to crack?

He paused, hoping that that joke would go over well. Too bad he couldn't hear the patient's laughs, if they were there at all.

The good news is that the nurses actually are gone, so you shouldn't have any scalpel-ridden ladies coming after you tonight. The bad news? Something funny is definitely going on. All I was able to decipher is that it has something to do with food.

A sigh followed after that; the man was clearly guilty for not being of more help. But he had lent a hand to two patients the night before, so...

I think I'm going to take a stroll again tonight, guys. So head away from the building if you want to chat, okay?

The music continued to play as the sounds of the man standing from a chair and gathering his things were heard.
