Someone wakes up.

The doctor sits in a nearby chair and waits, reading something on her clipboard.

"Hello? What's your name?"

"I'm Dr. Jansen. You're Lucrum, right?"

"No, I don't think so. I mean, that's my name... I'm sorry, I don't- I guess I am."

"It's okay. I'm sure you must be very confused- you were badly injured, with major amnesia."

"What happened? Was anyone else hurt?"

"Yes, several other people," she takes a deep breath "with a similar condition."

"With major amnesia. What does that mean, what kind of things did I forget?"

"You've lost some major personal details, and a few weeks of long-term memory."

"How are we treating it? Is my family here? Should they see me?" 

"They're not here. You need to avoid doing anything too strenuous, and you'll have regular checkups until your condition is more stable, and you recover more."

"What do you mean, stable? Could my amnesia get worse?"

"Yes. If someone attempted to force you to relearn what you've forgotten, it could set back your recovery quite a bit, and might even cause more damage."

"So my name is Lucrum. I don't really remember my family, and I shouldn't try. What is it safe to remember?"

"Pretty much anything you do remember is safe to remember, just don't push it if you don't."

"Will I get to see anyone? Only people I already remember, I guess? Other patients?"  

"You shouldn't, but several groups of patients had to be moved recently. If you recognize someone and they don't recognize you, don't push it, and if someone recognizes you that you don't remember, and they try to make you, please find a staff member immediately and ask for help."

"What about new people? People that I wouldn't recognize? Those should be safe, right?" 

He looks around the room. Is there anything to do, here? 

"Yes, that's just fine."

There's a sink, and a bookshelf with some fantasy and realistic fiction, and a wooden table with matching chairs, with a box of the game Clue.

"Is the game so I can remember safe things? Do I like to play that game?"

"Our best guess is that you would enjoy the game. It's there to give you something fun to do."

"Who am I supposed to play with, you? If my recovery goes well, can I play with other patients?" 

"If you want, I can play it with you, but it works better with at least three players. Playing with other patients, or with some of the other doctors and nurses when they're available, should be fine."

She looks very neutral on the topic of playing.

"What am I supposed to do? Besides recover."
