Day 46.

Weather: It's another rainy day, and at a few points during the day, there are some crazy thunderstorms.

Events: Members of Experiment B will wake up to a message on their phones. It reads:

Before we moved the experiment to it's current setting, we had gifted you a discreet, quick transit system that lead from the batcave to a hidden entrance in the hospital. You did not get the opportunity to fully take advantage of this perk before we moved you. To make up for that, we would like to once again offer you a private transit system to allow for discreet travel from one location to another so that you may enact any plots that you may think up. Today we ask you to consider where you may want an entrance and exit to this system. Let us know by the end of the day. We will construct this within the next few days.

That probably would have been nice to have a couple days ago, but better now than never, right?

For the rest of the house, it seems like it might be just another quiet day, which is probably welcome, but there are new things to discover. The stalls on the first floor of the barn, which are usually empty, are not empty today. Not a single one of them.

The first stall, the one closest to the door, has six large boxes in it. The boxes all contain four-person collapsible tents, and the carrying cases for them. Each box has a sticker on it, reading "90% Monster-proof!". That's probably good for anyone who wants to explore. Ninety percent monster proof is kind of promising, isn't it?

The second stall has two clothing racks, set up like a miniature Cassi's. All the clothes looks familiar, either stuff people left behind when they chose the clothes that they wanted to bring with them, or stuff that's been on the racks at Cassi's for a while. The back wall has stacks of shoe boxes, with new shoes and socks for everyone.

The third stall has stacks of shoe boxes too, but these boxes, from the outside, are clearly showing age. That's because none of these boxes-- and there are a lot of them --contain shoes. Instead, there are rows and rows of old photographs. A lot of them are in black and white, and for the most part, are just portraits. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to the photos until you get really into searching through them. While most photos look like they came from various thrift stores, some of them definitely don't. Every once in a while, a photo shows up of a relative. There are pictures of grandparents in their youth. There are childhood and high school pictures of everyone's parents. And, yes, there are even baby photos for everyone in the house mixed in, hidden in hundreds of faces that they don't recognize.

The fourth stall is the most important, because in that stall, Harper wakes up around 8am. Harper's experience will be similar to those on Day 1, but unfortunately without the fun of a room perfectly suited to her. She'll find her clothes in a box near her, as well as a phone that will give her access to the network, like everyone else.

TPTB seems to like to use these stalls, so if anyone wants to keep anything, they might want to remove whatever they're keeping and find it a new home before the day is over.
