Lukas nods a tiny bit, still on the floor, spasming in pain
???: "Good boy."
???: "Now then-I'll be taking my leave. But know that we're very excited to start testing with you-be ready."
He leaves, leaving Lukas alone in that awful white room all by himself. He curls up into a ball and sits in the corner, trying not to cry
Lukas just very lightly touches the collar-and immediately gets zapped "AUGHHH-"
He falls onto his side on the floor, spasming and gasping for breath. The tears start to leak out
He curls up in a ball on his side, tears streaming down his face
"K-Kats..."
He cries himself to sleep-he wasn't trying to, but eventually his tear ducts have dried out, and he's just so worn out and exhausted that there's nothing he can do but give in.
