You exit the conversation from Danielle and track down Emily's name on the list. It isn't hard: they had just complained last night about working the night shift. You purse your lips appraisingly and nod - this can only get better.
But before you spin your hypnotic web, you decide to handle your first ****. You nudge the shivering, vapid pile of flesh by your foot. "Follow me, Nicole." She slowly rises after un-sticking her cheek from the floor and stumbles after you, one jagged foot in front of the other, your loving little drone. You take a moment to just walk around in circles so you can watch her stumble after you like a newborn animal. She practically has the brain of one at this point.
Eventually, you lead her into the bathroom. "Who's that, Nicole?", you sneer, and she gazes at herself in the mirror and mumbles "... mmmeeeeeee...". You grip her by the shoulders and bend her over, face probably an inch from the mirror. "Look closer...".
Your suspicions prove true as Nicole gets a closer look at her own spirals. Slowly her mantra ceases and her jaw hangs loose, captivated by the sight of... herself. The rings of green and white slowly begin to spin faster and faster, deepening her stupor sufficiently for your purposes. You tussle her hair appreciatively. "Listen and obey, slut. Obeying gives you pleasure." And you lean in close to whisper instructions into her tingling skull.
Time passes. You close the door, locking it behind you, and leave Nicole to the self-destruction of her brain. She'll know what to do.
Now? Time for the second act.
NICOLE JOHNSON: Heeeeey, Em! I'm having a little trouble with a bedpan. Can you help me get it loose?
EMILY DRUM: YECHH D: Is it stuck on the rails again?? You just need to wiggle it! I don't wanna get shit all over my new pants like last time...
NICOLE JOHNSON: Pleeeeeeaaaaaaseeee??? This is my last patient! Then I'm out of here! There's no one else near!
EMILY DRUM: ...
NICOLE JOHNSON: pppppllllleeeeeaaaaassssseeeee?
EMILY DRUM: Fine >_> but you owe me a beer.
NICOLE JOHNSON: Ohmygod THANK YOU!! I'm in 383!
You pocket Nicole's phone, crack your knuckles, and start laying your trap, a hypnotic spider waiting to bewitch a beautiful little fairy.
