In the brief window of lucidity that the night nurse's lateness has provided you, several options stand out in your mind.

You could try to overpower the nurse physically, though the thought makes you ill. You are bigger and stronger than she is, and your calm behavior to this point has allowed her to become comfortable in your presence. She even sticks her finger in your mouth to help check whether or not you've tucked your pills into your cheek instead of swallowing them. She wouldn't expect violence.

You could try to manipulate the night nurce socially, convincing her you are ill or injured and need to be treated. She is unlikley to listen to your words, you're schizophrenic after all, but hard evidence like blood or vomit would be very convincing. In the confusion- she's likley to summon help quickly- you may be able to slip out or at least try to palm her keys.

Time is running out, and you need a plan of action, now.

POSTING GUIDELINES

First off, if you don't understand how this all works, please check out our help page.
It should answer most of your basic questions.

All authors are responsible for their own content. We don't write this stuff. You do. So feel free to use a little adult humour, but please don't go overboard, or we'll have to flag the story as mature content.
Second, if you're adding a chapter to an existing story, try and stick to the theme, back-story and characters of the original story as much as possible. This makes it easier to keep the storyline alive and kicking.
When you're writing, try not to write more than one or two segments of the same story at a time. It keeps the story fresher and funnier if you let others play along. :)
Posts need to be at least 140 characters long. That's about three average sentences, not too painful, but it prevents spamminess.
Finally, try not to kill off the main character in a story... at least, permanently. It can be pretty detrimental to the storyline — it's also useless, as someone is bound to revive the character.
If you find a problem somewhere, or see a bad posting, click the red report button on a story or user profile and report it to us!
Note: Please be careful if you spent a long period of time writing the same branch. It's entirely possible that someone else is completing the same branch as you, and in that case, since we don't lock posts while you edit, whoever posts first will "win" and you'll have to move your post elsewhere.
