"We won't bandage your arms again just yet."
--
He has a cigar case, a wallet, a pocket watch, a flask, and a small knife.

"Okay."

Lindsey stacks all of that nearby. "You may pick up your things on your way out."

She sits on the bed and pats the space beside her.

He nods again.

"This way, sir." Down the hall!

"Sleepy?"

Nat quietly follows.

"A little."
---
He leads Nat to a back room and pulls a trap door up. He points down a staircase. "They are in the basement. If you finish early, walk back up and knock."

".. I do hope you start feeling better soon. I'm really worried."
--
Nat nods dismissively and starts down the stairs.

"..I know."
---
Lindsey stays up. At the bottom of the staircase is a basement! The basement has been turned into a makeshift prison. Edan is wearing pants that are too short for him, because he's still in the habit of wearing other people's things. He slouches next to a wall which he is attached to via chains that lead from that wall to his wrists. Blood trickles from his feet, and a large bucket partially filled with blood sits next to him.
Byron stands near the entrance holding several large needles. He glances at Nat. "Ten minutes. Then out." Byron turns to exit.

"If.. " She quickly shakes her head. "Nevermind. You should lie down."
--
Nat looks around the basement and sniffs. He watches Byron leave and approaches Edan. He really wishes he'd put his shoes back on.

He nods. "Okay." He crawls into the bed.
---
Above, the trapdoor clatters shut. Edan peeks up through his hair.

She tosses the blanket over him.
--
He spits the gauze out into a hand and uses the other one to brush Edan's hair aside. "You look like s**t."

"Will you stay?"

He grins. When he speaks his voice is hoarse. "Thank you."

"I'm not going anywhere."
--
Nat smiles.. then wipes blood off his lip. "I don't have much time. Your son and his girlfriend are worried about you."

Little smile.

"Didn't they get my note?"
