"Yeah." Daniel replied, standing up. "Really fuckin' funny."

He ran a hand through his hair, calming himself down, slowly sinking back into the apathetic, tired looking man that he was, constantly. He stood with his back to her for a few moments, and then did an about face, looking directly at her. The side of her head, where she had been hit by the orderlies baton, was bleeding, dripping down the side of her skull slowly, starting just above her temple. He pointed at her.

"Okay, first things first... you're bleeding everywhere. Might wanna mop that up or something."

He walked across the hall, into his room, where he grabbed a rag out from underneath his bedding. He walked back, tossing it to her. She caught it with ease. He leaned against the bars of the doorway. He was thinking, processing what he wanted to say before he came out and said it.

"Alright... so we can both... see these monsters. These... yeah, whatever the fuck they are. This has to mean something, right. There has to be a reason it's us, that it's the two of us, in this place, right now, that can see these things, right?"
