[Almost two weeks spent in Malnosso captivity and what does Gregor have to show for it?

Lots and lots of band-aids, mostly. Also a minor cold that has turned into a chesty cough.

Instead of any great torture, drugs, or whatever he'd been expecting, the Malnosso mostly took DNA samples. Blood samples. Tissue samples. He's from further in Earth-universe's future than most besides Ivan, so maybe his specific point in human evolution was of interest. He understands the "lab rat" metaphor pretty well now. There hadn't been a lot of space in his cell, so he's a little stiff and sore. At least the hallucinations are gone. That had been the worst part--having to assure himself that this was a normal reaction to solitary confinement. He slowly heaves himself to his feet, blindly scrabbling for his journal. Writing is not easy with all his bandaged fingertips, so he speaks, sounding hoarse, slightly congested, and exhausted.]
 

Ivan. [A pause. ] Buffy. Adele. Whoever's...interested, this is Greg. I'm back. [He coughs a couple of times, fairly hard.] The Malnosso...anyway, I'm fine. It...wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. I'm heading home now. Did someone take care of my horse?

[He'll take about fifteen minutes to walk home from his spot in the woods.]

Interrogations? Whatever you wish to call the times they haul you back out for their own use.

I couldn't. Not at first.

Shocking, I know. [She snorts and sips her tea, warmed by it.]

[If she knew where to find one, Adele would find a blanket or something of the sort to offer Gregor. As it stands she's a guest and is more than a little unfamiliar with the layout of his apartment. Instead she reaches out to rub his shoulder. A noncommittal, comforting gesture that's a little less intimate than what she'd initially thought to do. Gregor isn't so well known to her that she can ruffle his hair just yet.]

I couldn't bring myself to sleep. I tried- it simply never stuck.

And there's little else to do but wait. Or rage at the walls- but that's counterproductive more often than not.

Six steps, turn, six steps, repeat. It becomes dull after the thirtieth time.

That is typically when they'd return for me. Irregular enough, yes, but...it always seemed as soon as I managed to exhaust myself, they would come.

Sometimes, here and there. Never for very long.

There are sedatives in the clinic if you think you'll need one. I can write a prescription if it becomes an issue.

We can't. It's something to think about, though. Keeping a bottle on your person just in case.

Isn't the common practice to have a false tooth in that instance?

[It's simpler if she doesn't think about it. Or the requests she'd been given, and declined, to remove a molar now and then. It wasn't her field.]

That's a great deal more efficient, if macabre.

As much as I would like to say I think our minders are above such brutality; I know for certain it is not the case.
