Quickly.
Ostensibly the Main Character of this shitshow is too busy getting aqcuainted with the back of his flushed GF's throat to get us started. Which is fine, since he's about to have the worst 12 sweeps of his life. Not all of him, most of him only has to suffer through the first 9 before he martyrs the horrors out of his skull. Then it's fine. Literally. Spoilers but Mituna's ideal end is the one where he ends up burning a gaping hole in the bottom of his thinkpan, and there's no pressure from the endless universes of the damned to make it bend at the seams anymore. Just the sweet, sweet breeze of not giving a single solitary fuck, immediately followed by dying. Chef's kiss. He'd do it himself if he wasn't so bad at it.
The Witch of Space, the catalyst for the forthcoming Angel of Endless Doom, the Double Death Beacon, acts almost purely on instinct. She grips her weapons of choice—the Stiches in Time—in each fist. It's cathartic, almost, realising she could rend the fabric of space into whatever shape she needed it to be. The soothing knowledge that chaos is nothing in the face of predetermination. She can do anything she wants, and it matters. Not to her, but to something.
She rears her arms back and catches the tips of her needles in the weft of space, widening the gap. There's a single moment of hesitation, as the tension holding space together deigns to resist, like it has forgotten who the fuck she is. The Prince urges her on, subtly, behind her pan, like she needs the motivation, and she tenses the muscles in her arms and tears the veil from the readers' eyes.
The cavernous emptiness of the mechanical surgery blockcluster is just fine. Mituna does the math: the past 4 sweeps have been an irate hive of burning, ripping noise. The past 19 hours have been a boon, a hydrocodone-induced hollowness that dulls the shrieking down to a manageable whimper. So that's roughly 0.02% of his life spent in a semi-decent state. He wonders if that's worth it.
He finishes vomiting over the side of his rehabilitation cocoon and sinks back down into the medicated slime. The Medicullers will clean it up again. He barely remembers the lecture after the procedure, just the reeling vertigo and the roaring psychic teeth of countless sufferers. Which wasn't new, but the nitrous dealer did a really great job of numbing his lobe stem until he wasn't anything for a while.
The worst part was waking up and realising he was, in fact, still something.
Mituna's fingers slide over the raised bump under the skin on his wrist where the AC sensor is hooked up to his nervous system. The differential transducer beeps steadily, measuring his pump biscuit. He rests his temple on the edge of the cocoon, watching the slow, trailing counterclockwise rotation of its current sensor. There's a subtle, repetitive tingle whenever it lines up with the stretchblock sensor probe, printing out the spike history and renudging the magnetic domains in his chitin. Every physical detail of his body turned into easy-to-understand data.
He, again, debates telling them about the howling. Maybe someone can help him this time. Maybe they can feed the numbing venom from one of those analgesic slitherbeasts right into his own cocoon at his hive.
He says a dozen or so maybes and they don't stick. The nausea rises up into his gag tunnel again, but he's too tired to be scared of it anymore. Drifting in and out of semi-conciousness for almost an entire night has a way of wearing a dude out. What's worse: being haunted or being comatose?
His casual catastrophising is interrupted by a change in air pressure. This unit has been abandoned all night, with only the occasional peek in from a fraught mediculler on their rounds. He (his data) is stable so they usually leave as quick as they came. But this is different. The gentle tink tonk of metal on lineoleum.

He sinks down a bit deeper into the slime. Mituna is simply too tired to come up with any creative ways to kill himself in front of this foppish blueblood lunatic. His full range of motion isn't back yet (on account of the roughly 10 alloyed steel screws they put in him) and his psionics are still out of commission for a while. He can't drown in sopor, obviously, and his foodsack is probably too empty for him to choke on his own vomit. His eyes glance back down to the wires and tubes feeding into his arms.

If it weren't for your deficit in personality I would understand your observation better. Alas, yet another molting pain I must learn to endure as I grow into my role as a wise and efficient caretaker.
:=) It would be silly of me to dwell on this. Isn't it invigorating, going through the challenges of life with your head held high and the knowledge that you've become a better person for even your tresspasses!
