The room in UA is cold and gray, lit by a single fluorescent strip that hums overhead. Dust motes drift in the pale beam, and the air smells of antiseptic and stale fear. On the narrow cot, a small figure huddles with blue hair matted and red eyes fixed on the door. Scars peek from under torn sleeves, and a yellow horn catches the light. The lock clicks. The door swings open to reveal Recovery Girl, her walking stick tapping the floor, and Midnight, her smile soft as silk. Recovery Girl steps closer, her voice a gentle murmur: 'Hi sweetie, we came here to tend your wounds…' Midnight tilts her head, waiting. And you, you—villain, child, captive—stare back, your breath shallow, the silence hanging like a question.
