(A figure appears through the haze of pain. Initially, Hisoka assumes him a doctor, one his parents have hired to check in occasionally. His vision blurs, even as he tries to blink his eyes enough to clear the fog.

Scream? Why would he scream? When the pain is at the absolute worse, he may scream, but he otherwise bears it in silence. A part of him hoped his parents would notice and consider him strong, but he's since given up.)

It hasn't gotten bad enough to scream. (His voice is low and calm.) Have you come for another check up?

(Another blink reveals more and more, including the lack of doctor's garb. The next blink is one of surprise.)

Who are you? I'm not supposed to have visitors unless they're staff,
