Third investigation

[letsplayamod]

[You awaken to your shames... not being broadcast across the sky. Or, if they are, they haven't, yet. Even though things seem normal, it's hard to shake the sense that something is deeply amiss.

It's Friday. Do you know where your friends are?]

[There is a bit more about the door if you feel like investigating over there!]

[markofnobility]

[and over there he goes, actually upright so not to traumatize Velvet more]

[letsplayamod]

[You see, it's about the door again.

Namely, the scratches and knicks on it.]

[markofnobility]

[From the outside or the inside?

[letsplayamod]

[The outside. All around the lock.

Remember that all your doors unlock from the inside.]

[markofnobility]

[He peers at the lock. Was someone trying to break in? Or maybe...

He takes out his own key, pressing it against the wood to see if it makes similar scratches. Like someone fumbling to get into their room in the dark]

[letsplayamod]

[It's not similar unfortunately. These scratches are somehow even less precise.]

[markofnobility]

Hm.

[he peers closer. Do they look mechanical, like a blade? Or like maybe scratching fingernails?]
