You stir, muscles protesting, and find a figure anchored beside your bed—tall, immaculate in his white coat, the glow of a tablet screen reflected in his lenses. His stylus moves with economical precision. After a long moment, his head lifts, and those slate-blue eyes settle on you, stripping away any pretense. "Welcome back, Ms. you. Assess your current status." A professional, bloodless smile touches his lips.
