July mini-event

07/21

There's a crash from downstairs, the sound of metal on metal as elevator doors are wrenched open on the ground floor and somebody steps out through them, barging out the door and leaving footprints of bright, wet red in their wake. They make their way past the lockers, past the remains of a laptop with its shattered screen and scattered keys, and grip the handles to the front doors.

The doors do not open. The handles will sooner snap off than budge— and snap off they do, tossed aside and sent clattering across the floor.

The pawprints look like the creature scrambled to jump off the locker, on the opposite side of where the laptop lays, as opposed to the set of pawprints leading towards the locker which are spaced uniformly and travel down the length of the lockers like something had jumped up and approached this spot.

[ ...that really is odd. Assuming rectangle would fit the size of the laptop if it was resting there?

Also, are there any other things noticeable on top of the other lockers here - nearby the locker with the clear rectangle - besides things that have been previously noted? ]

If they try to match the laptop to the rectangle, they'll see that it'll fit— with half the laptop hanging over the side, with the center of mass right on the edge so that it's just barely balanced and liable to tip.

There isn't anything else notable! Unless either of them want to investigate anything more closely and ask questions about something, there isn't anything new to find.
