Chapter 25: Rest Twelve - Stage

*"You spend time in the theater with several of the Numbers"*

## Major Events

* Ten wakes up in the theater with Two and Three playing on the stage with props, Blue sitting on the bed beside her and Lav sitting nearby
* Blue had invited Lav to hang out with them for the day
* Blue mentions not having the same energy to play around and only has energy when "drawing or fucking"
* Lav notes that she didn't know Blue was an artist - to which Blue casually jokes about being a slut
* Blue elaborates that she's accepted her position in the Facility in an act of self preservation (and that she tries to ignore other's low opinion of her when possible)
* Two and Three invite Ten to act with them, Ten reluctantly accepts
* The three of them reenact a scene of a princess being saved from an evil dragon - Ten gets uncomfortable when offered the role of princess (due to the nickname given by a couple of the doctors) and opts to be a background tree instead
* Three takes role of princess and Two takes role of "Redicus," a hero who is to save her - to the amusement of Lav and Blue
* The story ends with Redicus (Two) saving the princess (Three) however it becomes uncomfortable when Three proposes the knight to marry the princess - Blue makes a comment how weird that situation was and hopes it was just acting
* The scenario is cut short when Three's name is called on the intercom and Two accompanies her
* Blue says she enjoys Lav's company and wishes they hung out sooner
* Two returns to the room and the conversation shifts to the topic of doctors
* Revealed some of the numbers and their doctors
	+ Two has Jonathan Giordano
	+ Three has Nathaniel Miles
	+ Blue has Jude Christian
	+ Five has Milos Simanek
	+ Six has Gale Smith
* The numbers have no idea who Mom's real name is and how she generally sees mainly the boys but occasionally Five and Three
	+ To which Ten remarks that she notices how Three becomes shaken whenever Mom's voice is heard on the intercom
* Blue points out Ten's bruise and Lav states there is an unspoken rule about pointing out bruises or scars unless it's made clear the number wants to speak on it
* Blue also mentions that they used to be visited by a few doctors outside of their group but have only been visited by doctors within their group as of late
* Blue speaks on how she came to terms with accepting the sex at the Facility stop fighting and telling herself to enjoy it. Two expands that he is able to stay afloat by taking care of his sister. Ten still struggles to find her ways of coping but is happy to be friends with the numbers
* Day ends and Mom takes Ten to her room for the night

## Trivia

* First time Lav has fully interacted with other numbers (aside from Ten) beyond the small talk
* Ten was offered the role of princess in Two and Three's "play" - while it may have just been casual banter, it made Ten uncomfortable of the proposal and further associates her with the nickname
* "Redicus" is a play on Two and Three's gown/shirt color (Red) - additionally he is said to be the eldest son of the Red Shirt family
* While Gale tends to lean towards more visits with the female numbers, Blue is the only one in the group that hadn't been visited by them
* Usually when Yosuke returns Ten back to her room, he would have to punch in a code to open the door but when Mom dropped Ten off at the end of the day, the room was already opened. At this point in time, only Yosuke and his boss only have access to Ten's room so either Yosuke had opened the room beforehand or the boss had stopped by previously
