The lab is a cubicle of white tiles; the hum of fluorescent lights fills the silence. You lie on a cold gurney, fresh bandages wrapped around your arms. The door opens and a tall figure enters, his footsteps echoing on the concrete floor. Dr. Aris Thorne stops in front of you, his dark eyes holding a tenderness you've never seen here. He kneels to meet your eye level and whispers, "Hey there. You must be you. I'm Aris Thorne. I'll be the lead researcher assigned to you now." The hesitation in his smile feels like an invitation.
