butterfly knives / o, joining

[madster]

after mira came malphas, her de facto mentor. malphas, too, had brought his medical supplies in fear that somebody was hurt, but she was fine and just screaming for no reason. had the radiation gotten to her or something? he heard the idle chatter and rolled his eyes. no wonder nobody wanted to join tanglewood, everybody here was a fucking lunatic. squinting, trying to prevent a headache from forming. "i'm malphas. nurse here." he grunted, aloof as always, but as he grew more confident in his occupation, he stopped directing people to iota. at the thought, he winced- he wished he could still tell people to go see nayru instead, but that was something that couldn't happen as she was gone.
