(Seems to light up a bit.)
Mm. Processing, lots of it, documents for the government and for the corporations. Forms, files, letters. Good work, invigorating work.
(Fiddles with the coffee machine.)
...Mm... Should return to it, as soon as I can... As soon as I make this coffee, mm...
make it through this year if it kills you yet | 2001-2019-Gracia, drawn in by the light like a moth, walks up to it, curiously. She reaches out to grab the fabric and pull it down, not noticing Yvette's hisses to leave it be-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?...Mm, efficient, generally admirable. It upholds the structure, keeps our magnificent society glued together. I like it, it's an honor to, mmmmbe a part of it.
(Messily pours several sugars into his coffee, but no cream.)
…!!
(Is taken aback by Gracia's forwardness, but can't so much stop her.)
(Behind the cloth lies a makeshift operating theatre, with a large, metal table in the middle. On the table rests a massive head, as large as Gracia's torso, with ivory-pale flesh and pulsating light emanating from its huge, dead eyes.)
(It's already grown a prodigious head of white, silken hair. Wires feed into it through the base of the neck. It wears a faint smile, the smile of someone lost in a pleasant dream.)
(Lying opposite the head on the table and hooked to the other end of the wires is Park Sung-chul, who is spasming faintly under a sheet.)

make it through this year if it kills you yet | 2001-2019-Yvette gasps, going to Park's side, trying to rouse him-
Hey... hey, you need to get up... please...
-Gentle shakes, afraid to disconnect the wires-
She's pretty...
-Gracia is just transfixed by the big head-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?...mhh... whh...
(Twitches awake.)
...Y—... Y-Yvette...?
(shit, how's he know ur name...)
(The colossal head stares back at Gracia, unblinking. The interval of the flashing in its eyes is getting a bit faster, though...)
...Uh...
...Mm, order is a value everywhere. Order is life and being. There is no higher purpose than upholding that order.
(Slowly sips the coffee, still leaning really hard on that counter.)
