"I'm in a hurry, and in even more of one if the doctor is attending to Leonard Flame." You pull the crest out of your pocket, just enough that it's recognizable. "If he is, this is all the proof I can show."
There's a look of shock on the nurse's face, but only for a moment.
"If you're bluffing, Mr. Flame is definitely going to have some words with you when he recovers. Come on."
The nurse leads you to Flame's bed. You already know the way, so you keep up easily. The nurse pokes his head in.
"Sorry to interrupt, but there's an old fellow here to see you. Both of you, I think. Says it's important."
A moment later, the nurse goes back out and motions to you to go on. And as you do, you can immediately see why Mr. Flame needs special attention.

There's no reason for this | Or this | Death is inevitable | You can't challenge fate | The smallest change | I'm overwhelmed
I'm serious | It makes perfect sense | Easy as ABC! | I can't even explain it | Cleaning up someone else's mess
I suck | I rule | I've got it made | Really, I'm serious | This bugs me | It's all lies | I want to believe | Beauty is a curse
