You consider your alarming burn for a moment. You're pretty sure it's not something that can't wait until after lunch - it hurts a bit, but you think it's been done with some sort of strange tool, probably as a measure to prevent infection or bleeding out or something. Judging by the way your uniform was bloodied, you probably needed it badly. Right now, though, what you need is a spot of tea. You head over to the engineered cafeteria to indulge yourself, taking the elevator up.
The cafeteria doesn't look crowded. In fact, there's nobody here yet aside from the cafeteria workers. You notice that they're all Jasmine Thymes as well - though you live in the same dormitory, you haven't really acquainted yourself with them. You notice that their uniforms are exactly like yours as well. You walk up to one who doesn't look overly busy setting up the menu or placing trays of food.
"Um, hello, may I have some tea?"The Jasmine turns to you, looking mildly surprised at your presence.
"Hm? Oh, right. Sure."She leans over to the drink machine, making a quick five-button selection.
"Greenish Fields, right?" she asks with a knowing smile.
"Hey, that's my favorite! How did- oh, wait," you cut off your question, since you kind of already know the answer. Jasmine grins at you, producing a nice cup of your favorite tea.
"Will that be all?"You are about to say yes, but then realize that there's nobody else around to ask about the painting thing.
"Actually, do you know where I could get some paint?""Um... no, sorry. It's not among the things you can get in the requisition machines, I think."Oh well. You sit down and drink your tea in peace, enjoying every moment quite a bit. This cafeteria's real quiet right now aside from the Jasmines busily working at something in the kitchen. When you're done with the tea, you sit and think on what to do. You could go visit a doctor, try to use the therapist uplink, maybe even make an appointment with Ms. Bartolucci to get some info on what happened to you today and to check if you're alright. Or maybe... wait, isn't your shift about to start? It's lunchtime, and you are the hostess today. Unless something's changed that you don't remember.
