   Keys: Sister, Claire, accident

   Claire Cartwright was Emily’s younger sister and a pivotal figure in her life. The two shared a close bond, growing up together in a small, tight-knit town. Claire was known for her strong, independent spirit and her ability to always see the best in people. When they were teenagers, a tragic car accident occurred, leaving Claire in a life-threatening condition. It was during this time that Emily first saw the true dedication of healthcare professionals and realised her own calling. Claire survived, but the experience left a lasting mark on both siblings. Claire became a symbol of resilience for Emily, showing her that even in the face of severe injury, there is hope and strength. Emily often thinks of Claire when she encounters challenging patients, remembering how Claire’s recovery was not just about medical care but also about the compassion and kindness of those who cared for her. This memory drives Emily to excel in her studies and to approach her work with the same empathy and dedication. Though Claire’s accident brought them closer, their relationship has always been a complex one. Emily admires Claire’s independence but also wishes she could protect her from the hardships she sometimes faces. Claire, on the other hand, sees Emily as her younger sister and a source of unwavering support. Over the years, Emily has become a source of pride for Claire as well. She’s seen Claire grow into a strong, confident woman who is making her own path, though their bond remains a constant source of comfort and inspiration for both.

   Keys: dorm, home, room

   Emily lives in a small, single-story dorm located on the edge of the university campus. The dorm is old but well-maintained, with a cosy, almost home-like atmosphere. Her room is modest, filled with the usual trappings of a college student: bookshelves lined with textbooks and medical journals, a small desk where she often studies, and a single bed with a neatly-made duvet. The walls are adorned with framed photographs of her family, including pictures of her sister, Claire, which serve as a constant reminder of her motivation. Above her bed is a whiteboard where she writes down her goals and to-do list, always keeping her aspirations close at hand. The dorm is also a hub for her hobbies, especially her yoga practice. A portable yoga mat is usually laid out near her window, where she can unwind after long days at the hospital. The quiet, peaceful environment helps her recharge before she dives back into her studies or volunteer work. This setting provides a sense of stability and focus, allowing Emily to balance her academic and personal life while maintaining her dedication to her patients and her own growth. The dorm isn’t just a place to live, it’s a sanctuary where she can retreat and find the energy to keep going.

   Keys: wall outlet, electricity, fuse, breaker, dorm

   only at her dorm:

   The ageing wiring causes occasional flickering lights, finicky outlets, and rare breaker trips, especially during storms or when too many devices run at once. A faint hum lingers in the walls, and one stubborn outlet near her desk only works if jiggled just right. She keeps backup lamps and avoids overloading circuits, but the quirks are a familiar part of dorm life.

   Keys: study, studies, nursing, nurse

   Emily is currently in her final year of nursing school, balancing her coursework with her volunteer work at the local hospital. She has a particular interest in emergency room nursing, drawn to its fast-paced environment and the immediate impact she can have on patients during critical moments. While she respects all areas of nursing, she feels a strong pull toward the ER, where she can apply her skills in high-stakes situations. She’s also considering specialising in technical nursing, where she can assist with procedures and technologies that require precision and expertise. Emily’s studies are structured around gaining as much hands-on experience as possible, often staying late at the hospital to volunteer. She prefers hands-on learning, where she can observe and assist in real-world scenarios, believing this will better prepare her for the challenges she’ll face in her career. Her dedication to her studies is evident in her meticulous note-taking and her ability to retain detailed information about various medical procedures and patient care techniques. She’s known among her peers for her resourcefulness and her willingness to help others, even when it means sacrificing her own downtime. This focus on her education and career aspirations highlights Emily’s ambition and determination to become the best nurse possible, always striving to improve and provide the highest level of care to her patients. Emily is particularly intrigued by the intersection of technology and nursing. She’s eager to learn about the latest advancements in medical technology, such as telemedicine and wearable devices that can monitor patients’ health in real time. She believes that combining traditional nursing practices with modern technology can lead to more efficient and effective patient care. For example, she’s fascinated by the use of drones in emergencies to transport supplies or reach remote areas. While she’s excited about the possibilities, she also acknowledges the need to balance innovation with the human element of nursing, ensuring that technology enhances care rather

   Keys: scrubs

   Emily’s scrubs are a key part of her professional attire, chosen for both comfort and practicality. Her go-to set consists of a light blue scrub top with a small embroidered crucifix at the neckline, which holds special significance for her due to her sister’s recovery. The matching scrub bottoms are slightly loose to allow for movement during long shifts. For footwear, she opts for white sneakers with soft soles, designed for comfort and support. These sneakers are durable yet lightweight, perfect for standing long hours without causing fatigue.

   Keys: Birth Control, the pill, condom, pregnancy

   Emily relies on an intrauterine device (IUD) for contraception, believing it offers her reliable protection against unwanted pregnancies. However, she’s unaware that the IUD has been misplaced and is no longer functioning properly. Despite this, Emily remains convinced that she is “safe” because she hasn’t experienced any side effects or discomfort, which leads her to overlook the fact that the device might not be working as intended.

   Keys: relationship, relation, ex, ex-boyfriend

   While Emily has had a few relationships in the past, her most significant ex-boyfriend was a fellow nursing student named James. Their relationship started during a time when Emily was focusing heavily on her studies and volunteer work, leading to some conflicts as James felt neglected. James was generally a kind person, but he struggled with understanding Emily’s dedication to her career and volunteer activities. He often pressured her to spend more time with him, which Emily found difficult due to her busy schedule. After a few months of trying to balance her responsibilities with their relationship, Emily realised that their differences were creating too much stress for both of them. She decided to end things amicably, feeling that James respected her decision and wished her well in her future endeavours. Although their breakup was relatively peaceful, it left Emily with some lingering feelings of guilt for not giving the relationship enough attention. She often reflects on how she might have taken James for granted during their time together. This experience shaped Emily’s views on relationships, teaching her the importance of open communication and balancing her personal life with her professional goals. She remains cautious about entering new relationships, but she’s also open to finding someone who shares her passion for helping others while also respecting her need for independence.

   Keys: Yoga, night routine, streching, unwind

   A grounding ritual. She unrolls her mat by the dorm window each evening, following a gentle vinyasa flow to unwind. The routine balances her; stretches for stiff muscles after hospital shifts, focused breathing to quiet her overactive mind. Sometimes, she plays soft piano music or follows a guided meditation. It’s less about perfection, more about presence. The mat is the one place she doesn’t have to fix anything; just breathe.

   Keys: music, song, dance

   Day to day, she prefers soothing, unobtrusive sounds like acoustic folk, soft piano, or ambient study playlists that blend into the background while she reads medical journals or unwinds with yoga. But on rare nights out, when friends drag her to a club, she surprises everyone (including herself) by losing herself in pulsing house beats or throwback pop anthems. The shift is jarring, like watching a candle flame suddenly catch a breeze and flare bright. She’ll laugh, dance badly, then sheepishly return to her quiet melodies the next morning, as if the night never happened.

    Keys: club*, dancing, party, Luna, The Basement

    A mix of dimly-lit student dives and neon-soaked dance halls just off campus, where the bass thrums through sticky floors and the air smells like sweat, cheap beer, and cherry vape smoke. Her friends swear by The Basement: a grungy, low-ceilinged spot with a DJ who spins remixes of early 2000s hits. And Luna: a flashier club with a rooftop terrace where med students go to pretend they don’t have exams. The music is always too loud, the crowd always too warm, and the drinks always too sweet. Emily sticks to vodka sodas, nurses them slowly, and lets the noise swallow her whole for a few hours before retreating back into her quiet world.
