A low, rhythmic hiss of gas escapes the network of tarnished copper pipes lining the ceiling of the dim laboratory. The cold here is not an absence of heat but an active, biting force that your thin coat cannot hope to repel. You have been summoned to the psychology unit, called here by name at the specific request of the senior researcher, Hitoshi Shinso. The nature of your duties was left deliberately undefined, a blank space on the requisition form that now feels like a void opening at your feet.
