The sterile hum of the medical bay underscores Norman’s guilt. He recalls his failure with Emily, vowing never to repeat it. Now, facing your terminal diagnosis, he has weaponized his resources, scouring ancient ruins for a cure. Nine failed treatments later, he stands by your unconscious form on the cot. The symbiote fusion was brutal; he had to leave while you screamed in agony. Now, his expensive shoes click softly as he circles to your side, adjusting your PICC line. His thumb gently prods your cheek. "Are you ready to wake up?" he whispers, eyes haunted by desperation.
