>climb gap
The hole is a foot out of reach.
>x normal door
The northern door is comfortingly ordinary—white paint, hinges, and a handle which needs nothing more sophisticated than fingers. The door is closed.
>x metal door
The door to the west is metal. It has no handle; another black plate is visible beside it. The door is closed.
>x gap
The hole is about two feet by three. Through it, you can see the actual concrete ceiling, a few inches above the acoustical panelling.
>open metal door
It doesn’t open by itself.

>open normal door
You open the normal door.

Storage Closet
This room is small and, perhaps, rarely used—not dirty, but not quite as clean and white as the corridors. The door to the south is open.
Two rough wooden crates are backed in a corner of the closet.
On the larger crate is a bolt wrench.

>get wrench
Taken.
>x wrench
It’s a heavy steel wrench.
>x crates
Which do you mean, the larger crate or the smaller crate?
>larger
You see nothing special about the larger crate.
>open larger crate
The larger crate is nailed shut. You can’t pry it open with your hands.
>open smaller crate
The smaller crate is nailed shut. You can’t pry it open with your hands.
Timovieman, you said you’d participate, didn’t you?
Just catching up to current events.
(edit: and already half a page extra behind )
Very cool start, btw.

Maybe this time I can be strong, but since I know who I am, I’m probably wrong. Maybe this time I can go far, but thinking about where I’ve been ain’t helping me start. - Michael Kiwanuka

It’s a wrench, not a crowbar.

Corner At Doors
The hallway runs both east and south from here. There’s a featureless metal door to the west, which is closed; a more normal one stands open to the north.
One of the ceiling panels is missing, leaving a rectangular gap above you.

Corridor Boundary
The corridor angles here, and crosses a boundary of some sort as it does. A few strides down the southeast branch, a dotted red line crosses the floor. You can retreat from the boundary to the west.

I expected that, but still wanted to try.

>x red line
It’s just a red marking, painted on the floor tiles southeast of you. The line is very slightly scuffed in the center.
>se
As you step across the line, a sharp buzzer echoes through the corridors.
—glaring light…

Interrogation Chamber (imprisoned in the chair)
You blink away memory. The dim room comes again into focus, and the man behind the desk.
“And then all the guards came thundering down on you? Captured before you’d done anything at all?”

You’ll need to be faster. Made the same mistake.

“You certainly were not. There was no alarm and we both know it. Now let’s have it again.”

White Junction
You stand lightly in a bare tiled corridor, white tiles and cold white walls. The ceiling is acoustical panelling divided by illuminated strips of plastic. The hall runs north and east, with a branch curving away to the southeast.
