His voice is calm, and oddly soothing under the influence of whatever's dripping from the IV into their veins. Olivia starts to turn to glare, but the movement of her head hurts too much with the probe in her neck, and she sags forward again, clenching her hands tight around the arms of the chair.
"We're making you better. Ready for what's coming."
"It's just the drugs, Steve." She's been here too many times to be alarmed, just tired and angry. "And the probes are... They were..."
There's an odd sort of fog closing in, making the edges of the room blur and darken. Her own voice sounds too loud in her own ears, while everything else seems to fade. She grits her teeth and lifts her head and turns to face the man for just a second despite the pain. "Do you have any tricks you didn't steal from Walter Bishop?"
If he replies, it's lost as the room wobbles and fades entirely - and suddenly she's alone in the dark, and her own voice sounds soft and small and much too young as she calls out, fear creeping in despite herself, "Hello? Is there anyone... Steve?"
