[network] @donner; the walls have eyes; evening 156 [open]

[The video opens with Hange's face: dirty (though that's not anything unusual) and a little scraped up from a few days ago. But all in all, they seem to be in good spirits. There's an almost feverish light in those eyes.]

Hello Norfinbury! I already agreed to share any findings with Natasha, but this seemed important enough to share with the whole town instead.

[The camera turns to face a wall- a wall covered in black paint eyes- but is then suddenly jerked back around.]

Oh, for those of you who I haven't met yet, I'm Squad Leader Hange Zoe, and this- [more motion-sickness-inducing camera movement-] is Captain Levi. [The man in question looks perhaps even a little more displeased than he usually does, but he's only on screen for a second before the feed goes back to Hange.] He's upset right now because he couldn't clean the bathtub.

[And with that cryptic statement, the camera finally settles onto the walls again. Hange slowly pans across, then shows off the ceiling, floor, and other surfaces of the room. They're all equally covered with those messily-painted eyes.]

I've heard that these have been seen in other parts of the town as well, but they seem to be fairly concentrated here in this tenement area. I'm sure they'll make it onto the guide soon, but I wanted to get some input from the general populace. Trying to re-create the eye symbol on an untouched wall produced no reaction, but I can't help but wonder if there isn't something we're meant to do with these.

[The video comes back around to Hange.] In slightly worse news, we've come to a dead end here. There's a southern branch to these tunnels, but it doesn't lead to anything but snow. Oh! But we did find a couple of undiscovered buildings- rooms, really, but nothing looks like it could be a way through. I've marked it on the map that everyone's using- the dead end branch, that is. Oh, and I've got videos of the things we found. If anyone has any input, that would be great!

[It sounds like they actually mean that. As the message ends, Hange sends along several files: an addendum to House's map showing the area with the dead end, and several videos of the various eyes they've encountered and new apartments they've entered, as well as one of the dead end itself.]

[OOC: Responses may come from Hange and/or Levi!]

[ god damn... ]

So it's somewhere people shouldn't be wandering around unless they really have to. Is there any place in that area that's reliably safe?

Yeah, there are stores pretty close to them. Hold on!

[ He searches his tablet a moment before sending a file over to Levi. ]

Traps are circled in red. Marked the eyes with black, and the toy store is green. That's where we found the keycard for the Inn.

[ ooone moment while he looks over the map... ]

So the hotel's the only place you can see an eye without necessarily risking your life?

Pretty much. It's worth staying there, even without the weird eye. There are actual beds and a fire place down in the lobby.

[ It's one of the best places in Norfinbury, even without hot water. ]

Good to know. Too bad we're hell and gone from there right now. We'll check it out when we can.

[ aaand he'll probably try to clean off the eye even if he knows it won't work. so sad. ]
